Geant4 simulation of the moderating neutrons spectrum

In this paper we deal with the problem of predicting a steady-state neutron spectrum in media of arbitrary composition and geometry. The analytical calculations of such spectrum are often too complex, if at all possible. We describe a method of Geant4-based Monte Carlo calculation of the steady-state neutron spectrum in a medium containing a fixed neutron source. In addition to the steady-state spectrum, we obtain the snapshots of the neutron spectrum evolution in time, which may be thought of as the non-equilibrium neutron spectra, and their form is of considerable interest for further studies.

Laplace's method for elastic scattering diagrams within multi-particle fields model

We apply the multi-particle fields model to calculate the differential cross-section dσ/dt of elastic proton-proton scattering. This problem includes the calculation of multidimensional integrals arising from the loop Feynman diagrams. We demonstrated how these integrals can be reduced with Laplace's method to one- and two-dimensional integrals which can be calculated numerically. The obtained result qualitatively describe the minimum in differential cross-section dependency dσ/dt(t).

Coronal heating problem solution by means of axion origin photons

In this paper we advocate for the idea that two seemingly unrelated mysteries with almost 90 year history -- the nature of dark matter and the million-degree solar corona -- may be but two sides of the same coin -- the axions of dark matter born in the core of the Sun and photons of axion origin in the million-degree solar corona, whose modulations are controlled by the anticorrelated modulation of the asymmetric dark matter (ADM) density in the solar interior.

Neutron moderation spectrum considering inelastic scattering

For the first time an analytic expression was obtained for the inelastic neutron scattering law with an isotropic neutron source within the gas model, considering moderating medium temperature as a parameter. The inelastic scattering law is obtained, based on the solution of the kinematic problem of neutron inelastic scattering on a nucleus in laboratory coordinate system (L-system) in general case. I.e. in case not only a neutron but also a nucleus have arbitrary velocity vector in L-system. Analytic expressions are found for the neutron flux density and moderation spectrum in reactor fissile medium, both in case of the elastic scattering law, obtained earlier by the authors, and in case of the inelastic scattering law obtained in this paper. Both elastic and inelastic scattering laws are considered to be dependent on the medium temperature. The obtained expressions for neutron moderation spectra enable reinterpretation of physical nature of the processes that determine the shape of neutron spectrum in a wide energy range.

Simulation of the traveling wave burning on epithermal neutrons on the year time scale

We present the newly obtained results of two computer simulations of the epithermal neutron-nuclear burning in natural uranium. Each of them modeled the period of six months of the traveling wave reactor (TWR) operation -- for two different flux densities of an external neutron source. The simulation results confirm the existence of a nuclear burning wave at longer time scales, and reveal the dependence of the wave burning modes on the parameters of an external neutron source.

Thermomagnetic Ettingshausen-Nernst effect in tachocline, magnetic reconnection phenomenon in lower layers, axion mechanism of solar luminosity variations, coronal heating problem solution and mechanism of ADM variations around BH

It is shown that the holographic principle of quantum gravity (in the hologram of the Universe, and therefore in our Galaxy, and of course on the Sun!), in which the conflict between the theory of gravitation and quantum mechanics disappears, gives rise to the Babcock-Leighton holographic mechanism. Unlike the solar dynamo models, it generates a strong toroidal magnetic field by means of the thermomagnetic Ettingshausen-Nernst (EN) effect in the tachocline. Hence, it can be shown that with the help of the thermomagnetic EN effect, a simple estimate of the magnetic pressure of an ideal gas in the tachocline of e.g. the Sun can indirectly prove that by using the holographic principle of quantum gravity, the repulsive toroidal magnetic field of the tachocline ($B_{tacho}^{Sun} = 4.1 \cdot 10^7 ~G = - B_{core}^{Sun}$) precisely "neutralizes" the magnetic field in the Sun core, since the projections of the magnetic fields in the tachocline and the core have equal values but opposite directions. The basic problem is a generalized problem of the antidynamo model of magnetic flux tubes (MFTs), where the nature of both holographic effects (the thermomagnetic EN~effect and Babcock-Leighton holographic mechanism), including magnetic cycles, manifests itself in the modulation of asymmetric dark matter (ADM) and, consequently, the solar axion in the Sun interior.

Simulation of the wave neutron-nuclear burning of Th232 enriched with Pu239 for the thermal range of neutron energy

At the initial stage, the development of wave reactors, which will operate in the mode of wave nuclear burning (WNC), requires the study of the kinetics of the WNC fuel mode when changing both external parameters (flux density of an external neutron source, thermal parameters of heat transfer) and internal parameters (fuel composition, reactor material parameter, delayed neutrons). In order to confirm the possibility of WNC with enrichment, we study its impact on the criterion of WNC for thorium fuel Th232 at different enrichments in Pu239) and its behavior during the "ignition" stage. To confirm the fulfillment of the criterion of slow WNC depending on the neutron energy, we perform a numerical simulation of the thorium fuel WNC mode dynamics, taking into account the delayed neutrons in the thermal and epithermal regions of the neutron energies (0.015-10 eV).

Multiparticle fields on the subset of simultaneity

We propose a model describing the scattering of hadrons as bound states of their constituent quarks. We analyze the role of simultaneity in measurements of the characteristics of different particles for the description of relativistic quantum systems. We also consider the impossibility of the same realization of such measurements in different inertial reference frames because of the relativity of simultaneity in relativistic situation. On the basis of this analysis we conclude that the relativistic scattering of bound states of particles should not be described by the fields defined on the Minkowski space, but on the subset of simultaneous events, which is singled out from the tensor product of two Minkowski spaces. Such fields are called multi-particle fields. The arguments of the field functions in different reference frames are impossible to relate neither by using Lorentz transformations, nor in any other way. Next we build the dynamic equations for the multi-particle fields on the subset of simultaneity, using the Lagrange method, similar to the case of "usual" single-particle fields. We then consider the gauge fields restoring the local internal symmetry on the subset of simultaneity. The dynamic equations for the multi-particle gauge fields describe such phenomena as confinement and asymptotic freedom of colored objects under certain boundary conditions, and the mechanism of spontaneous braking of symmetry -- under anothers. With these dynamic equations we are able to describe within a single model the quark confinement in hadrons, and their interaction during hadron scattering through the exchange of the bound states of gluons -- the glueballs.

Impulse source of high energy neutrons emitted by fusion reactions after compression of D-T gas by cumulative detonation waves

We develop the physical model and the system of equations for the impulse neutron source (INS) of high-energy neutrons ($\sim$14 MeV) emitted by fusion reactions during compression of D-T gas by cumulative detonation waves. The system of INS equations includes a system of gas dynamic equations that takes into account the energy transfer by radiation, equations for the radiation flux, the equation of the shock adiabat (the Hugoniot adiabat) for a compressed gas, and the equation for the neutron yield. We perform the INS dynamics simulation for the spherical and cylindrical geometries, and calculate maximum temperatures of D-T plasma, its density and neutron yield in the pulse. The obtained temperature estimates and simulation results show that the thermonuclear fusion temperatures are reached within this approach, and the fusion reactions proceed. Their yield determines the yield of neutrons.

An Alternative Method for Solving Two Problems of the Standard Model

Two problems of the Standard Model, associated with the introduction of non-gauge interactions and with the introduction of an electromagnetic field as a linear combination of fields on which various gauge groups are implemented, are analyzed. It is noticed that the existing model contains $U\left( 1 \right)-$ phase uncertainty of the matrix elements of the raising and lowering generators of the $SU\left( 2 \right)$ group. This uncertainty creates the condition for the additional local $U\left( 1 \right)-$ symmetry of the Standard Model Lagrangian with respect to the choice of various equivalent generator representations of the $SU\left( 2 \right)$ group, which is provided by the electromagnetic field. In this case, due to the different action of the raising and lowering generators on the fields of each generation of leptons and quarks, these fields interact with the electromagnetic field in different ways. It is also shown that considering the multi-particle gauge field a description of the Higgs mechanism can be obtained, free from the shortcomings of the well-known single-particle description, the main of which is the introduction of the non-gauge "phi-four" interaction, that is not reduced to the fundamental one. In the proposed model, the spontaneous symmetry breaking is achieved due to the same fundamental interaction, the mediating particle mass of which it provides.

Mechanical Analogy for the Wave of Nuclear Burning

We consider a model of neutron-nuclear wave burning. The wave of nuclear burning of the medium is initiated by an external neutron source and is the basis for the new generation reactors -- the so-called "traveling-wave reactors". We develop a model of nuclear wave burning, for which it is possible to draw an analogy with a mechanical dissipative system. Within the framework of the new model, we show that two burning modes are possible depending on the control parameters: a traveling autowave and a wave driven by an external neutron source. We find the autowave to be possible for certain neutron energies only, and the wave velocity has a continuous spectrum bounded below.

Multi-particle field operators in quantum field theory

Using bi-spinor fields we write the pseudo-scalar and bi-spinor fields that are characterized by the field functions of coordinates of several particles, namely multi-particle fields. By applying the quantization procedure to these multi-particle fields, hadronic creation and annihilation operators have been obtained. Due to internal degrees of freedom of such hadron field, it can interact with gauge fields. This interaction is introduced by a standard derivative extension. The gauge field which was obtained in this way revealed to be a multi-particle field. We construct the dynamic equations for this multi-particle gauge field. It was shown that the solutions of these equations can describe the interaction of quarks inside hadrons and also the interaction of quarks in different hadrons via two-particle gluon field. Quanta of this two-gluon field can be considered as bound states of two gluons. These solutions describe confinement of quarks and gluons.

Internal States of Hadrons in Relativistic Reference Frames

The internal state of a composite particle and its transformation, when changing from the reference frame, where this composite particle is at rest, to a reference frame, where it moves relativistically, have been considered. It is supposed that the internal state of the composite particle in its rest frame can be considered in the non-relativistic approximation. This internal state is shown to remain the same, when changing from one inertial reference frame to another one. In other words, a particle that is spherically symmetric in its rest frame does not change its form in any other reference frame and does not undergo the Lorentz contraction in the direction of motion of any reference frame with respect to the rest one. A possible application of the results obtained to describe the scattering of hadrons considered as bound states of quarks has been discussed.

Neutron Moderation Theory Taking into Accout the Thermal Motion of Moderating Medium Nuclei

In this paper we present the analytical expression for the neutron scattering law for an isotropic source of neutrons, obtained within the framework of the gas model with the temperature of the moderating medium as a parameter. The obtained scattering law is based on the solution of the kinematic problem of elastic scattering of neutrons on nuclei in the L-system in the general case. I.e. both the neutron and the nucleus possess the arbitrary velocity vectors in the L-system. For the new scattering law the flux densities and neutron moderation spectra depending on the temperature are obtained for the reactor fissile medium. The expressions for the moderating neutrons spectra allow reinterpreting the physical nature of the underlying processes in the thermal region.

Thermomagnetic Ettingshausen-Nernst effect in tachocline and axion mechanism of solar luminosity variations

It is shown that the hypothesis of the axion mechanism for solar luminosity variations suggesting that the solar axion particles are born in the core of the Sun and may be efficiently converted back into $γ$-quanta in the magnetic field of the solar overshoot tachocline is physically relevant. As a result, it is also shown that the intensity variations of the $γ$-quanta of axion origin, induced by the magnetic field variations in the tachocline via the thermomagnetic Ettingshausen-Nernst effect, directly cause the Sun luminosity variations and eventually characterize the active and quiet states of the Sun. Within the framework of this mechanism estimations of the strength of the axion coupling to a photon ($g_{a γ} = 4.4 \cdot 10^{-11} GeV^{-1}$) and the hadronic axion particle mass ($m_a \sim 3.2 \cdot 10^{-2} eV$) have been obtained. It is also shown that the claimed axion parameters do not contradict any known experimental and theoretical model-independent limitations.

Revolution of S-stars and oscillation of solar and terrestrial observables: nonrandom coincidence of periods

A striking coincidence of revolution periods of S-stars orbiting a supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way and oscillation periods of such solar and terrestrial observables as the sunspot number, the geomagnetic field Y-component and the global temperature is established on basis of the corresponding experimental data. Rejecting randomness of this discovered coincidence, we put forward a hypothesis that modulation of dark matter flows in the Milky Way by the S-stars is responsible for such a frequency transfer from the Galactic Center to the Solar System.

Axion mechanism of Sun luminosity: light shining through the solar radiation zone

It is shown that the hypothesis of the axion mechanism of Sun luminosity suggesting that the solar axion particles are born in the core of the Sun and may be efficiently converted back into $γ$-quanta in the magnetic field of the solar overshoot tachocline is physically relevant. As a result, it is also shown that the intensity variations of the $γ$-quanta of axion origin, induced by the magnetic field variations in the tachocline, directly cause the Sun luminosity %and total solar irradiance (TSI) variations and eventually characterize the active and quiet states of the Sun. Within the framework of this mechanism estimations of the strength of the axion coupling to a photon ($g_{a γ} = 3.6 \cdot 10^{-11} GeV^{-1}$) and the hadronic axion particle mass ($m_a \sim 2.3 \cdot 10^{-2} eV$) have been obtained. It is also shown that the claimed axion parameters do not contradict any known experimental and theoretical model-independent limitations.

Ultraslow Wave Nuclear Burning of Uranium-Plutonium Fissile Medium on Epithermal Neutrons

For a fissile medium, originally consisting of uranium-238, the investigation of fulfillment of the wave burning criterion in a wide range of neutron energies is conducted for the first time, and a possibility of wave nuclear burning not only in the region of fast neutrons, but also for cold, epithermal and resonance ones is discovered for the first time. For the first time the results of the investigation of the Feoktistov criterion fulfillment for a fissile medium, originally consisting of uranium-238 dioxide with enrichments 4.38%, 2.00%, 1.00%, 0.71% and 0.50% with respect to uranium-235, in the region of neutron energies 0.015-10.0eV are presented. These results indicate a possibility of ultraslow wave neutron-nuclear burning mode realization in the uranium-plutonium media, originally (before the wave initiation by external neutron source) having enrichments with respect to uranium-235, corresponding to the subcritical state, in the regions of cold, thermal, epithermal and resonance neutrons. In order to validate the conclusions, based on the slow wave neutron-nuclear burning criterion fulfillment depending on the neutron energy, the numerical modeling of ultraslow wave neutron-nuclear burning of a natural uranium in the epithermal region of neutron energies (0.1-7.0eV) was conducted for the first time. The presented simulated results indicate the realization of the ultraslow wave neutron-nuclear burning of the natural uranium for the epithermal neutrons.
