  • Hydrogen and Muonium behaviour in diamond 
    Joseph, Sithole Makgamathe (2009-08-25)
    This work is aimed at the understanding of the dynamical behavior of hydrogen in diamond. The investigation was carried out using Transverse Field muon Spin Rotation (TF-SR) and the Longitudinal Field muon Spin Relaxation ...
  • Shock Excited 1720 MHz Masers 
    De Witt, Aletha (2009-08-25)
    1720 MHz OH masers have been detected towards a number of supernova remnants (SNRs) at the shock interface where the SNR slams into the interstellar medium. Models indicate that these masers are shock excited and can only ...
  • The role of three-body forces in few-body systems 
    Masita, Dithlase Frans (2006-11-30)
    Bound state systems consisting of three nonrelativistic particles are numerically studied. Calculations are performed employing two-body and three-body forces as input in the Hamiltonian in order to study the role or ...
  • Applied inverse scattering 
    Mabuza, Boy Raymond (2009-08-25)
    We are concerned with the quantum inverse scattering problem. The corresponding Marchenko integral equation is solved by using the collocation method together with piece-wise polynomials, namely, Hermite splines. The ...
  • Interaction of the eta-meson with light nuclei 
    De Villiers, Jean Schepers (2009-08-25)
    The long-standing problem of possible formation of metastable states in collisions of the eta-meson with atomic nuclei is revisited. The two-body eta-nucleon interaction is described by a local potential, which is ...
  • A microscopic description of nuclear alpha decay 
    Ogunbade, Olusegun G. (2009-08-25)
    Radioactive decay of nuclei via emission of ??-particles is studied using three different theoretical approaches, viz: the quasi-bound state wavefunction approach (QSWA), the superasymmetric ??ssion model (SAFM) and the ...
  • Dynamics of few-cluster systems. 
    Lekala, Mantile Leslie (2009-08-25)
    The three-body bound state problem is considered using configuration-space Faddeev equations within the framework of the total-angular-momentum representation. Different three-body systems are considered, the main concern ...
  • Artificial neural network methods in few-body systems 
    Rampho, Gaotsiwe Joel (2009-08)
  • A quantum mechanical study of dopants in diamond 
    Lombardi, Enrico Bruno (2009-08-25)
  • Nuclear reactions inside the water molecule 
    Dicks, Jesse (2005-06)
    A scheme, analogous to the linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO), is used to calculate rates of reactions for the fusion of nuclei con¯ned in molecules. As an example, the possibility of nuclear fusion in rotationally ...
