Precision Mass Measurements of Short-lived Nuclides at the Heavy-ion Storage Ring in Lanzhou

Recent commissioning of the Cooler Storage Ring at the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou enabled us to conduct high-precision mass measurements at the Institute of Modern Physics in Lanzhou (IMP). In the past few years, mass measurements were performed using the CSRe-based isochronous mass spectrometry employing the fragmentation of the energetic beams of 58Ni, 78Kr, 86Kr, and 112Sn projectiles. Masses of short-lived nuclides on both sides of the stability valley were addressed. Relative mass precision of down to 10−6 ~ 10−7 is routinely achieved. The mass values were used as an input for dedicated nuclear structure and astrophysics studies, providing for instance new insights into the rp-process of nucleosynthesis in X-ray bursts. In this contribution, we briefly review the so far conducted experiments and the main achieved results, as well as outline the plans for future experiments.     

Impact of counter-rotating-wave term on quantum heat transfer and phonon statistics in nonequilibrium qubit–phonon hybrid system

Counter-rotating-wave terms(CRWTs)are traditionally viewed to be crucial in open small quantum systems with strong system–bath dissipation.Here by exemplifying in a nonequilibrium qubit–phonon hybrid model,we show that CRWTs can play the significant role in quantum heat transfer even with weak system–bath dissipation.By using extended coherent phonon states,we obtain the quantum master equation with heat exchange rates contributed by rotating-waveterms(RWTs)and CRWTs,respectively.We find that including only RWTs,the steady state heat current and current fluctuations will be significantly suppressed at large temperature bias,whereas they are strongly enhanced by considering CRWTs in addition.Furthermore,for the phonon statistics,the average phonon number and two-phonon correlation are nearly insensitive to strong qubit–phonon hybridization with only RWTs,whereas they will be dramatically cooled down via the cooperative transitions based on CRWTs in addition.Therefore,CRWTs in quantum heat transfer system should be treated carefully.     

Properties of ground state and anomalous quantum fluctuations in one-dimensional polaron-soliton systems—the effects of electron-two-phonon interaction and non-adiabatic quantum correlations

Based on the Holstein model Hamiltonian of one-dimensional molecular crystals, by making use of the expansion approach of the correlated squeezed-coherent states of phonon instead of the two-phonon coherent state expansion scheme, the properties of the ground state and the anomalous quantum fluctuations are investigated in a strongly coupled electron-phonon system with special consideration of the electron-two-phonon interaction. The effective renormalization (αi) of the displacement of the squeezed phonons with the effect of the squeezed-coherent states of phonon and both the electron-displaced phonon and the polaron-squeezed phonon correlations have been combined to obtain the anomalous quantum fluctuations for the corrections of the coherent state. Due to these non-adiabatic correlations, the effective displacement parameter αi is larger than the ordinary parameter α (0) i . In comparison with the electron-one-phonon interaction (g) corrected as αig, we have found the electron-two-phonon interaction (g1) corrected as αi2 g1 is enhanced significantly. For this reason, the ground state energy (E(2) 0 ) contributed by the electron-two-phonon interaction is more negative than the single-phonon case (E(1) 0 ) and the soliton solution is more stable. At the same time, the effects of the electron-two-phonon interaction greatly increase the polaron energy and the quantum fluctuations. Furthermore, in a deeper level, we have considered the effect of the polaron-squeezed phonon correlation (f-correlation). Since this correlation parameter f > 1, this effect will strengthen the electron-one and two-phonon interactions by fαig and f2αi2 g1, respectively. The final results show that the ground state energy and the polaron energy will appear more negative further and the quantum fluctuations will gain further improvement.     

Investigation on performance of all optical buffer with large dynamical delay time based on cascaded double loop optical buffers

Optical buffers are critical for optical signal processing in future optical packet-switched networks. In this paper, a theoretical study as well as an experimental demonstration on a new optical buffer with large dynamical delay time is carried out based on cascaded double loop optical buffers (DLOBs). It is found that pulse distortion can be restrained by a negative optical control mode when the optical packet is in the loop. Noise analysis indicates that it is feasible to realise a large variable delay range by cascaded DLOBs. These conclusions are validated by the experiment system with 4-stage cascaded DLOBs. Both the theoretical simulations and the experimental results indicate that a large delay range of 1-9999 times the basic delay unit and a fine granularity of 25 ns can be achieved by the cascaded DLOBs. The performance of the cascaded DLOBs is suitable for the all optical networks.     

Generalized unscented Kalman filtering based radial basis function neural network for the prediction of ground radioactivity time series with missing data

On the assumption that random interruptions in the observation process are modeled by a sequence of independent Bernoulli random variables, we firstly generalize two kinds of nonlinear filtering methods with random interruption failures in the observation based on the extended Kalman filtering (EKF) and the unscented Kalman filtering (UKF), which were shortened as GEKF and GUKF in this paper, respectively. Then the nonlinear filtering model is established by using the radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) prototypes and the network weights as state equation and the output of RBFNN to present the observation equation. Finally, we take the filtering problem under missing observed data as a special case of nonlinear filtering with random intermittent failures by setting each missing data to be zero without needing to pre-estimate the missing data, and use the GEKF-based RBFNN and the GUKF-based RBFNN to predict the ground radioactivity time series with missing data. Experimental results demonstrate that the prediction results of GUKF-based RBFNN accord well with the real ground radioactivity time series while the prediction results of GEKF-based RBFNN are divergent.

毛细现象公式的导出

液体表面分子间的吸引力、液体表面的分子有一种使其面积缩成最小的力,或称一种抵抗表面积扩张的力,此力称“表面张力”．液体表面是指液体与空气或其他液体相接触的自由面．若不指明,即可认为相对于空气而言．表面张力的大小与接触面的物质有密切关系．此外,表面张力还与温度有关,温度越高,表面张力越小．表面张力的方向总是与液面相切,与分界线相垂直．若在液面作一长为L的直线,将液面分成两部分,这两部分之间的相互牵引力为F,即表面张力F=σL．其中σ为液体表面张力系数．单位为N/m．由于表面张力的作用,液滴表面有收缩到最小的趋势,而使液滴成近似球形的状态．     

Lump,lumpoff and predictable rogue wave solutions to a dimensionally reduced Hirota bilinear equation

We study a simplified(3+1)-dimensional model equation and construct a lump solution for the special case of z=y using the Hirota bilinear method.Then,a more general form of lump solution is constructed,which contains more arbitrary autocephalous parameters.In addition,a lumpoff solution is also derived based on the general lump solutions and a stripe soliton.Furthermore,we figure out instanton/rogue wave solutions via introducing two stripe solitons.Finally,one can better illustrate these propagation phenomena of these solutions by analyzing images.     

Arbitrary full-state hybrid projective synchronization for chaotic discrete-time systems via a scalar signal

In this paper we present a new projective synchronization scheme,where two chaotic(hyperchaotic) discretetime systems synchronize for any arbitrary scaling matrix.Specifically,each drive system state synchronizes with a linear combination of response system states.The proposed observer-based approach presents some useful features:i) it enables exact synchronization to be achieved in finite time(i.e.,dead-beat synchronization);ii) it exploits a scalar synchronizing signal;iii) it can be applied to a wide class of discrete-time chaotic(hyperchaotic) systems;iv) it includes,as a particular case,most of the synchronization types defined so far.An example is reported,which shows in detail that exact synchronization is effectively achieved in finite time,using a scalar synchronizing signal only,for any arbitrary scaling matrix.

Significant parameters affecting a lightning stroke to a horizontal conductor

This paper studies different parameters affecting a lightning stroke to a horizontal conductor. An electromagnetic model has been constructed to consider the influences of different lightning and horizontal conductor parameters and ambient conditions on the lateral striking distance. The results show that lightning leader parameters, horizontal conductor voltage, horizontal conductor height, and ground slope have a series effect on the lateral striking distance. Based on the results, recommendations are made to decrease the lightning stroke to the horizontal conductor.     

Magnetic guide of cold atoms using a U-shaped current-carrying conductor

We propose a new scheme to magnetically guide cold neutral atoms using a U-shaped current carrying conductor. The spatial magnetic field distribution from the U-shaped current-carrying conductor and the relationship between the magnetic field and parameters of the U-shaped conductor are analysed. Our study shows that U-shaped current-carrying conductor can be used to realize single- or double-channel magnetic guiding of cold atoms in weak-field-seeking states and to construct various atom-optical elements. By using Monte Carlo simulations, the dynamic process of the guided atomic-beam splitting in an atomic-beam splitter composed by the U-shaped current-carrying conductor is studied, and some results are presented.     

Simulation study of a magnetocardiogram based on a virtual heart model: effect of a cardiac equivalent source and a volume conductor

In this paper,we present a magnetocardiogram(MCG) simulation study using the boundary element method(BEM) and based on the virtual heart model and the realistic human volume conductor model.The different contributions of cardiac equivalent source models and volume conductor models to the MCG are deeply and comprehensively investigated.The single dipole source model,the multiple dipoles source model and the equivalent double layer(EDL) source model are analysed and compared with the cardiac equivalent source models.Meanwhile,the effect of the volume conductor model on the MCG combined with these cardiac equivalent sources is investigated.The simulation results demonstrate that the cardiac electrophysiological information will be partly missed when only the single dipole source is taken,while the EDL source is a good option for MCG simulation and the effect of the volume conductor is smallest for the EDL source.Therefore,the EDL source is suitable for the study of MCG forward and inverse problems,and more attention should be paid to it in future MCG studies.     

Radial electric potential in a metallic wire carrying a steady current

A radial electric potential is established in a metallic wire carrying a steady current. The steady current induces a magnetic field inside the conductor. A resultant Lorentz force drives a moving electron to distribute on the surface of the wire. An electric potential deference between two points along a radial direction in the conductor is proportional to a quadratic of the current.     

AC losses in a flexible 10 m long conductor model for a HTS power transmission cable

To demonstrate the possibility of manufacturing a HTS power transmission cable with low AC losses, we fabricated a 10 m long cable conductor and a cryosystem. The conductor was wound in a four-layer design out of 2 km Ag/Bi-2223 tapes. We determined a critical current of 5000 A. Loss measurements were performed with an electric method which detects the voltage drop along the conductor with a lock-in technique and a calorimetric method which measures the temperature rise along the conductor. Both methods yield the same low loss values of only 0.8 W/m at 77 K and 2000 A_rms/50 Hz. This is due to the low loss winding scheme we used which assures an equal current distribution in all four layers through transformatoric coupling. We applied the uniform current distribution model and added the nonlinear V–I curve to describe quantitatively the obtained results.     

Magnetic guiding of cold neutral atoms using a V-shaped current-carrying conductor

A new scheme to magnetically guide cold, neutral atoms using a V-shaped current-carrying conductor is proposed. The spatial distributions of the magnetic fields, potentials and forces generated by the V-shaped current-carrying conductor are calculated, and the relationship between the magnetic field and the parameters of the V-shaped current-carrying conductor are analyzed in detail. Our study shows that the V-shaped current-carrying conductor proposed here can be used to guide cold atoms in the weak-field-seeking state, and to construct various atom-optical elements, such as atomic funnel, atomic beam-splitter and atom interferometer and so on, and even to realize a single-mode atomic waveguiding under certain conditions.

An overlooked electrostatic force that acts on a non-charged asymmetric conductor in a symmetric (parallel) electric field

Usually, when a material that has charge Q is placed in an electric field E, an electrostatic force F = QE acts on the material. This force does not act on a non-charged material. Nevertheless, when a non-charged material is placed in a convergent field, another electrostatic force acts. This force is called the gradient force. If the material is small and the shape is a sphere, the gradient force can be calculated by an approximate formula, but it cannot be calculated for other shapes. In this paper the gradient force that acts on a symmetric rod conductor in a convergent (asymmetric) field was simulated by an axis symmetry finite difference method.Under same simulation conditions without the next two points, the shape of the conductor and the form of the field were reversed. The shape of the conductor was changed into an asymmetric shape (e.g. bat shape), and the form of the field was changed into a symmetric (parallel) one. The electrostatic force that acts on the asymmetric conductor in the symmetric (parallel) field was simulated. It was found that approximately the same intensity force as in the first simulation also acts on this conductor. This force is thought to be an overlooked electrostatic force. I provisionally call it the asymmetric force in this paper.The asymmetric force with differently shaped conductors was simulated and it was found that the asymmetric force was maximized for a cup shaped conductor.Finally, the asymmetric force with the cup shaped conductor in normal and reversed parallel (symmetric) fields was simulated, and it was confirmed that the asymmetric force remains the same in both fields.     

Some laws of polarization and dispersion of a drop in an electrostatic field

The laws of distribution among contributions in various interactions to the total polarization energy of a conductor in a uniform electrostatic field was analyzed. It is shown that in a closed system, spontaneous shape variations of a liquid conductor with a free surface in an external magnetic field are possible only if they are accompanied by an increase in the conductor dipole moment. Variations of the intrinsic energy of a conductor are studied by the example of a conductive liquid drop in the case where a drop affected by a polarization charge becomes unstable. Analytical expressions defining the sizes and charges of the droplets ejected out of the initial drop under the conditions of instability are derived.     

Electrical explosion of conductors in the high-pressure zone of a convergent shock wave

The effect of the environmental pressure on the electrical explosion of a conductor (fine tungsten wire of diameter 30 μm) in an insulating liquid (distilled water) is studied. The pressure in the water is produced by exploding a multiwire array with the test conductor on its axis. Along with the experiment, the magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the explosion is carried out. It is shown that a high pressure produced in the explosion zone retards the electrical explosion of the conductor and, consequently, increases the explosion energy.
