    Notes: [Auszug] Argyle attempts to explain ball lightning in terms of positive after-images, which have certain properties in common with the former. There seem to be two overriding objections to this conjecture. First, it is hard to understand the unanimity of description in cases where there have been many ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Recent theoretical developments indicate that the presence of gravity (curved space–time) can give rise to important new quantum effects, such as cosmological particle production and black-hole evaporation. These processes hint at intriguing new relations between quantum theory, ...

    Notes: [Auszug] There is evidence to suggest that the fine-structure constant, α — a measure of the strength of the electromagnetic interaction between photons and electrons — is slowly increasing over cosmological timescales. As α = e2/ℏc (where e is the ...

    Notes: The concept of the vacuum in quantum field theory is a subtle one. Vacuum states have a rich and complex set of properties that produce distinctive, though usually exceedingly small, physical effects. Quantum vacuum noise is familiar in optical and electronic devices, but in this paper I wish to consider extending the discussion to systems in which gravitation, or large accelerations, are important. This leads to the prediction of vacuum friction: The quantum vacuum can act in a manner reminiscent of a viscous fluid. One result is that rapidly changing gravitational fields can create particles from the vacuum, and in turn the backreaction on the gravitational dynamics operates like a damping force. I consider such effects in early universe cosmology and the theory of quantum black holes, including the possibility that the large-scale structure of the universe might be produced by quantum vacuum noise in an early inflationary phase. I also discuss the curious phenomenon that an observer who accelerates through a quantum vacuum perceives a bath of thermal radiation closely analogous to Hawking radiation from black holes, even though an inertial observer registers no particles. The effects predicted raise very deep and unresolved issues about the nature of quantum particles, the role of the observer, and the relationship between the quantum vacuum and the concepts of information and entropy. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract— The results of high rate tensile and compact tension fracture toughness tests conducted on BS 4360 ‘A’ grade ship steel are presented. Tensile results are reported for strain rates within the range 10–2–103/s and fracture toughness values at rates of increase of J integral within the range 103–106 N/mm/s. The tensile properties of upper yield, lower yield and UTS are shown to be linearly dependent on the logarithm of strain rate whilst fracture toughness is shown to decrease with increasing loading rate prior to approaching a minimum value. The decrease in fracture toughness with increasing test rate is shown to be related to a change in the micro-mechanism of fracture.

    Notes: Abstract— —An experimental procedure for obtaining material tensile and fracture toughness properties at rates applicable to shock loading is reported. A variant of the key curve approach to determine dynamic J-R curves is described and results are presented for a nickel aluminium bronze alloy for actuator loading rates in the range 0.75–7500 mm/s.
