Abstract West Bohemia is a region with a lot of mineral springs and gas outflows, which seems to be related to the remains of Quaternary volcanism in Central Europe. Earthquake swarms in shallow depths (less than 15 km) are very frequent there. We focused on the strongest earthquake over the past 30 yr (31 May, 2014 Mw∼3.8) and on two smaller ones (Mw∼2.9 and 2.5) from the same day. Seismograms from local and regional seismic stations were used to calculate the full and deviatoric moment tensors using low-frequency full-waveform inversion. The studied events have similar source mechanisms. The aforementioned earthquake sequence was selected to observe the isotropic part (negative value = implosion) of full moment tensors. It could relate to the motion and phase transition of fluids, especially water, and CO2. The main goal of this study is to contribute to clarification of the nature of earthquake swarms in the western edge of the Bohemian Massif. Negative value of the isotropic part of full moment tensor could be related to the closing of cracks and fissures during a rupture process.

The electro-reflectance spectra, including their polarization dependencies were analyzed for n-Si(110) in the energy range of 2.9-3.8 eV. Based on the optical anisotropy of electro-optical effect, two contributions originated from a surface, (isotropic part relates to the linear electro-optical effect which inherent for (110) surface) and bulk, (anisotropic part relates to the Franz–Keldysh effect) were identified and separated. The presence of such extreme is explained by the zero value of the electron wave function on the surface and (or) the structure gettering of the free carriers.

Let ℋ be a Krein space with fundamental symmetry J. Starting with a canonical block-operator matrix representation of J, we study the regular subspaces of ℋ. We also present block-operator matrix representations of the J-self-adjoint projections for the regular subspaces of ℋ, as well as for the regular complements of the isotropic part in a pseudo-regular subspace of ℋ.

We have calculated the vibrational solvent shifts of the fundamental bands of HCl diluted in Ar, Kr, and Xe solutions at different thermodynamic conditions by means of the molecular dynamics technique and a model for the isotropic part of the interaction depending on the vibration. The theoretical vibrational shifts, which were compared with the available experimental data, have been determined by considering both, the usual linear Buckingham terms and the nonlinear anharmonic corrections, and the latter omitted in a previous work for the HCl in Ar and Kr. We have found that the Buckingham contributions dominate the solvent shifts of the fundamental bands of HCl in Ar, Kr, and Xe, although the anharmonic shifts’ present significant greater values than those obtained previously for N2 diluted in liquid Ar and pure liquid N2, both at normal conditions. We have analyzed the solvent shifts influence of the linear and quadratic (in the vibrational coordinate) oscillator-bath interaction terms and also the Dunham intramolecular potential effects on the anharmonic contributions.

The anisotropy of small-scale temperature fluctuations in shear flows is analysed by making measurements in high-Reynolds-number atmospheric surface layers. A spherical harmonics representation of the moments of scalar increments is proposed, such that the isotropic part corresponds to the index j = 0 and increasing degrees of anisotropy correspond to increasing j. The parity and angular dependence of the odd moments of the scalar increments show that the moments cannot contain any isotropic part (j = 0), but can be satisfactorily represented by the lowest-order anisotropic term corresponding to j = 1. Thus, the skewnesses of scalar increments (and derivatives) are inherently anisotropic quantities, and are not suitable indicators of the tendency towards isotropy.

A spectral representation for the isotropic part of the Coulomb collisional operator is given. The particle distribution function is expanded in a series of generalized Laguerre polynomials, and the Coulomb collisional operator is expressed in terms of the spectral amplitudes. When the spectral representation is applied to the Fokker–Planck equation, a system of coupled ordinary differential equations for the spectral amplitudes is obtained. The spectral coefficients related to the Coulomb operator are defined through recurrence relations, which we reduce to simplified form. This makes possible accurate and efficient analytical and numerical evaluations of the interaction matrices. The results presented can be used in analytical investigations of the properties of the Coulomb collisional operator as well as in numerical calculations for plasmas far from thermal equilibrium. The method can also be generalized to include angular dependencies for non-isotropic particle distributions.

Abstract The rotational diffusion of a rod-like molecule in a liquid crystal is considered in the molecularfield approximation, and the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation is derived. It is shown that the microscopic friction coefficient, which is the parameter of this equation, possesses the usual exponential temperature dependence with the activation energy determined by the isotropic part of the intermolecular interaction energy. The viscous stress tensor of the nematic is obtained by averaging of the corresponding microscopic expression with the non-equilibrium distribution function. Finally, explicit expressions for the Leslie coefficients are obtained in terms of molecular parameters. Their values, signs and temperature variation correspond qualitatively to experimental data.
