ABSTRACTHot electron relaxation in bulk semiconductors has been studied for several decades, but only through recent advances in crystal growth has it become possible to investigate the ther-malization of hot quasi-two-dimensional carriers in quantum wells. These same advances have opened the possibility of constructing various semiconductor devices which rely on hot electrons for their operation. We discuss experimental results on the energy relaxation of hot electrons in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. The experiments make use of optical spectroscopy for determining the carrier distribution. In particular, steady-state hot photoluminescence measurements have been employed with modulation-doped quantum wells in order to minimally perturb the system by the photoexcited carriers. Both the relaxation of very energetic electrons and the cooling of a hot thermalized carrier distribution are considered. The quantum well results are compared to results from similar experiments with bulk GaAs.

We calculate the inelastic scattering lifetime of an excited quasiparticle at low (or zero) temperature, due to electron-electron interaction for a clean two-dimensional (2D) electron gas within the random-phase approximation (RPA) and compare it with the lifetime measured from the tunnelling experiment. Our result obtained by direct numerical calculation increases the electron relaxation rate considerably, hence decreases the size of discrepancy (roughly by a factor of 4) between theory and experiment which exists in the literature. We also show that including local-field factors in the effective electron interaction yields small correction to the result calculated within the RPA for rs ~ 1, corresponding to electron density of the sample in the tunnelling experiment. This result suggests that the RPA is reasonably accurate for a 2D electron gas in weak coupling limit.

I should like to give you a very condensed progress report on some spectrophotometric measurements of objective-prism spectra made in collaboration with H. Leicher at Bonn. The procedure used is almost completely automatic. The measurements are made with the help of a semi-automatic fully digitized registering microphotometer constructed by Hög-Hamburg. The reductions are carried out with the aid of a number of interconnected programmes written for the computer IBM 7090, beginning with the output of the photometer in the form of punched cards and ending with the printing-out of the final two-dimensional classifications.

1. The definition of “normal” stars in spectral classification changes with time; at the time of the publication of theYerkes Spectral Atlasthe term “normal” was applied to stars whose spectra could be fitted smoothly into a two-dimensional array. Thus, at that time, weak-lined spectra (RR Lyrae and HD 140283) would have been considered peculiar. At the present time we would tend to classify such spectra as “normal”—in a more complicated classification scheme which would have a parameter varying with metallic-line intensity within a specific spectral subdivision.

“Dynamical mixing”, i.e. relaxation of a stellar phase space distribution through interaction with the mean gravitational field, is numerically investigated for a one-dimensional self-gravitating stellar gas. Qualitative results are presented in the form of a motion picture of the flow of phase points (representing homogeneous slabs of stars) in two-dimensional phase space.

AbstractIn this paper we present complete two-dimensional measurements of the observed brightness of the 9th November 1990Hαflare, using a PDS microdensitometer scanner and image processing software MIDAS. The resulting isophotal contour maps, were used to describe morphological-cum-temporal behaviour of the flare and also the kernels of the flare. Correlation of theHαflare with SXR and MW radiations were also studied.
