We report the discovery of a partial conservation law obeyed by a schematic Hamiltonian of two protons and two neutrons in a [Formula: see text] shell. In our Hamiltonian, the interaction matrix element of two nucleons with combined angular momentum [Formula: see text] is linear in [Formula: see text] for even [Formula: see text] and constant for odd [Formula: see text]. It turns out that in some stationary states, the sum of the angular momenta [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of the proton and neutron pairs is conserved. The energies of these states are given by a linear function of [Formula: see text]. The systematics of their occurrence is described and explained.


Angular momentum in axisymmetric space-times is investigated. The conclusions lead to a general definition suitable for all asymptoticallyflat spaces which is valid both at infinity and on the event horizon of a black hole. This first paper restricts attention to considerations at infinity. Working in terms of the spin coefficient formalism, the field equations are solved asymptotically at large distances and the definition is evaluated. A conservation law is derived and finally the effect on the angular momentum of a supertranslation of the coordinates is discussed.

An explicit limit for the overturning of a rigid block is derived on the input level of the triple impulse and the pseudo-triple impulse as a modified version of the triple impulse that are a substitute of a near-fault forward-directivity ground motion. The overturning behavior of the rigid block is described by applying the conservation law of angular momentum and the conservation law of mechanical energy (kinetic and potential). The initial velocity of rotation after the first impulse and the change of rotational velocity after the impact on the floor due to the movement of the rotational center are determined by using the conservation law of angular momentum. The maximum angle of rotation after the first impulse is obtained by the conservation law of mechanical energy. The change of rotational velocity after the second impulse is also characterized by the conservation law of angular momentum. The maximum angle of rotation of the rigid block after the second impulse, which is mandatory for the computation of the overturning limit, is also derived by the conservation law of mechanical energy. This allows us to prevent from computing complex non-linear time-history responses. The critical timing of the second impulse (also the third impulse timing to the second impulse) is featured by the time of impact after the first impulse. As in the case of the double impulse, the action of the second impulse just after the impact is employed as the critical timing. It is induced from the explicit expression of the critical velocity amplitude limit of the pseudo-triple impulse that its limit is slightly larger than the limit for the double impulse. Finally, it is found that, when the third impulse in the triple impulse is taken into account, the limit input velocity for the overturning of the rigid block becomes larger than that for the pseudo-triple impulse. This is because the third impulse is thought to prevent the overturning of the rigid block by giving an impact toward the inverse direction of the vibration of the rigid block.
