2, 6-Diaminoanthraquinone is used in drug delivery. The absorption and fluorescence spectral properties of 2,6-Diaminoanthraquinone (DAAQ) have been investigated in a series of organic solvents with different polarity functions ranging from 0.207 to 0.762.The different solvents used are Tetrahydrofuran (THF) (0.207), Dimethylformamide (DMF) (0.404), ethanol (0.654) and Methonal (0.762).The fluorescence shifts are more pronounced than the absorption shifts indicating that the change in dipole moment is positive. The change in dipole moment and the ratio of the dipole moments are determined and discussed by Solvatochromism method. The third order nonlinearity of 2,6-DAAQ in PVA dissolved in DMF solution is determined using Electroabsorption. Higher order nonlinearities can be deduced on successful recording of the stark spectrum at the higher order of the applied electric field.

The infra-red absorption of ionic crystals differs in important details from the predictions of the theory based on first approximations. It is known that this discrepancy may be due to two effects which are neglected in such a theory, namely, to the anharmonic terms in the potential energy and to those terms in the dipole moment which are of higher order than the first in the displacement co-ordinates. These higher-order terms in the dipole moment arise from the deformation of the electron shells. The present paper develops in a systematic way the influence of these higher-order effects on the static dielectric constant. Because of the dispersion relations, the terms occurring in the static dielectric constant must also appear in the infra-red absorption spectrum . It is found that the third- and the fourth-order potential, the second- and the third-order dipole moment, and cross-terms between the second-order moment and the third-order potential, all con­tribute terms in the same order to the static dielectric constant. It is also found that the third-order potential contains important contributions from the long-range dipolar inter­action. These dipolar contributions are proportional to the product of the first- and second-order dipole moments, and it follows that in ionic crystals a large second-order moment automatically results in a large third-order potential. It is suggested that these dipolar contributions to the third-order potential may be responsible for the fact that in the infra-red spectra of different ionic crystals not only the intensity of the side band but also the width of the main band varies in the same way as the deformability of the electron shells.

A two-level dissipative quantum-mechanical system subjected to a small applied multimode electric field plus a feedback term proportional to the induced dipole moment is discussed. The long-term behaviour of the induced dipole moment and of the upper level occupation probability is represented by a series expansion in terms of the applied electric-field amplitudes. First-order and third-order internal, external, and intrinsic polarizabilites are introduced and calculated for the model. Certain ratios of third-order to first-order polarizabilities are shown to have a common value for the internal, external, and intrinsic cases. Clausius–Mossotti relations for the linear and third-order susceptibilities are derived.

In this work, we propose a new formulation allowing to realize the holonomic quantum computation with neutral particles with a permanent magnetic dipole moments interacting with an external electric field in the presence of a topological defect. We show that both the interaction of the electric field with the magnetic dipole moment and the presence of topological defect generate independent contributions to the geometric quantum phases which can be used to describe any arbitrary rotation on the magnetic dipole moment without using the adiabatic approximation.

AbstractThe rotation of a spherical particle in a constant electric field (an effect found earlier) has been analyzed. The particle is illuminated to induce the electric dipole moment of the sphere. The dynamics of the rotation effect has been considered in general terms to refine conditions for adiabatic rotation. The features of the particle’s nonadiabatic rotation have been demonstrated with a sphere placed in a medium with an infinitesimal viscosity. It has been shown that the nonadiabatic rotation dynamics to a great extent depends on a relationship between the electrical and photoinduced dipole moments of the sphere. The rotation dynamics of a particle with a slightly nonspherical shape has been briefly analyzed.

In this paper, a finite element model for efficient nonlinear analysis of the mechanical response of viscoelastic beams is presented. The principle of virtual work is utilized in conjunction with the third-order beam theory to develop displacement-based, weak-form Galerkin finite element model for both quasi-static and fully-transient analysis. The displacement field is assumed such that the third-order beam theory admits C0 Lagrange interpolation of all dependent variables and the constitutive equation can be that of an isotropic material. Also, higher-order interpolation functions of spectral/hp type are employed to efficiently eliminate numerical locking. The mechanical properties are considered to be linear viscoelastic while the beam may undergo von Kármán nonlinear geometric deformations. The constitutive equations are modeled using Prony exponential series with general n-parameter Kelvin chain as its mechanical analogy for quasi-static cases and a simple two-element Maxwell model for dynamic cases. The fully discretized finite element equations are obtained by approximating the convolution integrals from the viscous part of the constitutive relations using a trapezoidal rule. A two-point recurrence scheme is developed that uses the approximation of relaxation moduli with Prony series. This necessitates the data storage for only the last time step and not for the entire deformation history.

Propagation of electrostatic electron waves whose frequency is smaller than the electron plasma frequency in a large unmagnetized plasma is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. When a receiver is close to a transmitter, free-streaming electrons are detected owing to their large capacity for excitation. When the distance between the receiver and the transmitter becomes large, the third-order Landau mode is observed due to its smaller damping than that of free-streaming electrons. Finally, a dip in amplitude of the wave, caused by interference by the higher-order Landau modes, is seen. The results are in reasonable agreement with numerical calculation assuming a dipole excitation for the wave.

Pressure derivatives of bulk modulus of materials at infinite pressure or extreme compression have been studied using some basic principles of calculus. Expressions for higher order pressure derivatives at infinite pressure are obtained that are found to have the status of identities. A generalized formula is derived for the nth-order pressure derivative of bulk modulus in terms of the third-order Grüneisen parameter at infinite pressure.


A perturbation calculation, valid in the limit of large separations, of various properties of the 2 pπ state of HeH 2+ is carried out. The total energy and the kinetic and potential energies are calculated to the fifth order, the dipole moment to the third order and the quadrupole moments to the second order and the results compared with those obtained using exact and variationally determined two-centre wave functions. Some results are also given for the 2 pπ u and 3 dπ g states of H + 2 and the influence of nuclear symmetry at large separations is briefly discussed.
