Surface reconstructions on the (100) CoSi2 surface
Authors: G. A. D. Briggs,Ilan Goldfarb,Steven D. Kenny,E. Akhmatskaya
We have investigated the relative stability of a number of p(1◊1), c(2◊2) and p(2◊2) surface reconstructions on the (100) CoSi 2 surface as deposited on Si(100). The relative stability of these reconstructions as a function of whether the growth conditions are either Si rich or Co rich is also…

Authors: J. M. Gomez,D. Parker,Enrique Garcia-Melendo,I. Miyazaki,François Colas,Jean Lecacheux,Agustín Sánchez-Lavega
Abstract This paper addresses the question of up to what extent there are changes in the jovian jets as seen at cloud level and how they relate to the cloud morphology changes. We focus on the particularly interesting region at 24°N where the most intense jovian jet as observed at visual…

On the strong influence of the photoelastic effect in the collinear mirage deflection
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Agustín Salazar,M. Gateshki
We report in this letter on the strong influence of the polarization state of the probe beam in the amplitude and phase of the collinear mirage deflection. A model of the collinear mirage deflection that takes into account the photoelastic effect in the sample has been developed. The agreement…

The 90-day oscillations of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot revisited
Authors: J. M. Gomez,I. Miyazaki,François Colas,Josep M. Trigo-Rodríguez,Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Jean Lecacheux
Abstract We have analyzed a large set of ground-based CCD images covering the period from 1993 to early 1999, to address the current status and behavior of the 90-day longitudinal oscillations of the Jovian Great Red Spot (GRS). The good temporal sampling of these data have been complemented with…

Multiple scattering effects of thermal waves by two subsurface cylinders
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,J. M. Terrón,Agustín Salazar
We present a theoretical model and experimental measurements of the temperature field produced by the multiple scattering of thermal waves between two close subsurface cylinders and the material surface. The thermal waves are excited at the surface of an opaque material by an extended modulated…

Morrey–Campanato Estimates for Helmholtz Equations
Authors: Perthame, Benoit,Vega, Luis
Abstract We derive uniform weighted L 2 and Morrey–Campanato type estimates for Helmholtz equations in a medium with a variable index which is not necessarily constant at infinity. Our technique is based on a multiplier method with appropriate weights which generalize those of Morawetz for the…

Abstract A unique large-scale vortex, the White Tropical Oval (WTrO), was first observed in the South Tropical Zone of Jupiter, at the latitude of the Great Red Spot (GRS) in 1983. Its origin is probably related to a period of intense formation of eddies in the Southern edge of the South…
