Depinning Dynamics of Fluid Monolayer on a Quenched Substrate

Langevin simulations are preformed on the depinning dynamics of fluid monolayer on a quenched substrate. With increase in the strength of the substrate, we find for the first time a crossover from elastic crystal to smectic flows as well as a crossover from smectic to plastic flows above the depinning. A power-law scaling relationship can be derived between the drift velocity and the driving force for both the elastic crystal and smectic flows, but fails to be obtained for the plastic flow. The power-law exponents are found to be no larger than 1 for the elastic crystal flow and larger than 1 for the smeetic flow. The critical driving force and the averaged intensity of Bragg peaks remain invariant basically in the regime of smectic flow. A sudden increase in the critical driving force is observed within the crossover from the smeetic to plastic flows, and the averaged intensity of Bragg peaks shows sudden decreases within the crossovers both from the elastic crystal to smectic flows and from the smectic to plastic flows. The results are helpful for understanding the slip dynamics of fluids on a molecular level.     

Prediction and Refinement of High-Order Virial Coefficients for a Hard-Sphere System

The n^th virialcoefficient for a hard-sphere system is expressed as the sum of n^2 and a remainder. When n ≥ 3, the remainders of the viriaJs can be accurately expressed with Pade-type functions of n. The maximum deviations are only 0.039-0.053%, which are much better than the existing approaches. By using the predicted virials, the compressibility factors of the hard-sphere system can be predicted very accurately in the whole stable fluid region, and those in the metastable fluid region can also be well predicted up to a packing fraction of 0.545. The simulated B7 and Bl0 are found to be inconsistent with the other known virials, and thus they are refined to be 53.2467 and 105.042, respectively.     

Construction of Different Kinds of Atomic and Molecular Orbitals Using Complete Orthonormal Sets of ψ^α-ETO in Single Exponent Approximation

Using complete orthonormal sets of ψ^α-exponential type orbitals in single exponent approximation the new approach has been suggested for construction of different kinds of functions which can be useful in the theory of linear combination of atomic orbitals. These functions can be chosen properly according to the nature of the problems under consideration. This is rather important because the choice of the basis set may be play a crucial role in applications to atomic and molecular problems. As an example of application, different atomic orbitals for the ground states of the neutral and the first ten cationic members of the isoelectronic series of He atom are constructed by the solution of Hartree-Fock-Roothaan equations using ψ^1, ψ^0 and ψ^-1 basis sets. The cMculated results are close to the numerical Hartree-Fock values. The total energy, expansion coefficients, orbital exponents and virial ratio for each atom are presented.     

New Conserved Quantities of Noether-Mei Symmetry for Nonholonomic Mechanical System

Two new types of conserved quantities deduced by Noether-Mei symmetry of nonholonomic mechanical system are studied. The definition and criterion of Noether-Mei symmetry for the system are given. A coordination function is introduced, and the conditions under which the Noether-Mei symmetry leads to the two types of conserved quantities and the forms of the two types of conserved quantities are obtained. An illustrative example is given. The coordination function can be selected according to the demand for finding the gauge function, and the choice of the coordination function has multiformity, so more conserved quantities deduced from Noether-Mei symmetry of mechanical system can be obtained.     

Microscopic states of Kerr black holes from boundary-bulk correspondence

It was previously claimed by the author that black holes can be considered as topological insulators. Both black holes and topological insulators have boundary modes, and the boundary modes can be described by an effective BF theory. In this paper, the boundary modes on the horizons of black holes are analyzed using methods developed for topological insulators. BTZ black holes are analyzed first, and the results are found to be compatible with previous works. The results are then generalized to Kerr black holes, for which new results are obtained: dimensionless right-and left-temperatures can be defined and have well behavior in both the Schwarzschild limit a → 0 and the extremal limit a → M. Upon the Kerr/CFT correspondence, a central charge c = 12 Mr+ can be associated with an arbitrary Kerr black hole. Moreover, the microstates of the Kerr black hole can be identified with the quantum states of this scalar field. From this identification, the number of microstates of the Kerr black hole can be counted, yielding the Bekenstein-Hawking area law for the entropy.

On Synge's covariant conservation laws for general relativity

Following Synge, the covariant formulas for the total four-momentum and angular momentum of an isolated physical system in general relativity are derived. These formulas are first obtained in the weak-field approximation, for which they are shown to be expressible in surface integral form, to be unique, and to represent covariantly conserved quantities. The covariant expressions for the general case are then shown to be identical to those for the weak-field case. The uniquely determined and covariantly conserved quantities so obtained are found to agree with the corresponding canonical, noncovariant surface integral expressions.

Variational calculations of vibrational energy levels for XY4 molecules: 2. Bending states of methane

A variational method for calculating excited bending states of symmetric tetrahedral pentaatomic molecules is presented based on the use of Radau coordinates and Jacobi polynomials as the basis functions. Symmetry is used both to reduce the size of secular matrix to be diagonalized and to calculate potential energy matrix elements over a reduced grid of quadrature points. Methods of treating the redundant coordinate are investigated and fitting is found to be more effective than the use of Taylor expansions. Test results are presented for methane, for which stretch-bend coupling and the contribution due to the redundant coordinate are found to be significant. Converged results are obtained for bending states significantly higher than considered in previous calculations. These states will be used as a basis for bending motions in a fully coupled stretch-bend calculation.     

Relativity of the metric

Although the form of the metric is invariant for arbitrary coordinate transformations, the magnitudes of the elements of the metric are not invariant. For Cartesian coordinates these elements are equal to one and are on the diagonal. Such a unitary metric can also apply to arbitrary coordinates, but only for a coordinate system inhabitant (CSI), to whom these coordinates would appear to be Cartesian. The meaning for a non-Euclidean metric consequently appears to be a simple coordinate system transformation for the appropriate CSI. The conversion of arbitrary coordinates to the flat Cartesian ones can be accomplished by a sequence of isomorphic mappings linking the arbitrary coordinates to the flat Cartesian ones. This is shown for two, three, and four-dimensional spaces. It is also applied to toroidal metrics and fluidfilled spaces for toroidal vortices that are discontinuous, half-wavelength, electromagnetic dipole field distributions. A number of other applications are discussed.     

Determination of transmission and insertion loss for multi-inlet mufflers using impedance matrix and superposition approaches with comparisons

This paper details how transmission and insertion loss can be defined for the multi-inlet case. Two different procedures are used for calculations and are compared against one another. The first is an impedance matrix method that has been proposed in the past and is especially suitable for deterministic approaches like the boundary element method. The other is a superposition method that does not require assembling or inverting a matrix. Though each method can be extended to the n-inlet situation, the superposition approach is mathematically simpler but requires the source impedance to be known a priori. Transmission and insertion loss can be determined using either method, and results using both are shown to be equivalent. The methods are demonstrated and compared for a two-inlet one-outlet expansion chamber. After which, the superposition method is used to determine the insertion loss for a two-inlet one-outlet generator set muffler experimentally.     

Shift of whispering-gallery modes in microspheres by protein adsorption

Biosensors based on the shift of whispering-gallery modes in microspheres accompanying protein adsorption are described by use of a perturbation theory. For random spatial adsorption, theory predicts that the shift should be inversely proportional to microsphere radius R and proportional to protein surface density and excess polarizability. Measurements are found to be consistent with the theory, and the correspondence enables the average surface area occupied by a single protein to be estimated. These results are consistent with crystallographic data for bovine serum albumin. The theoretical shift for adsorption of a single protein is found to be extremely sensitive to the target region, with adsorption in the most sensitive region varying as 1/R(5/2). Specific parameters for single protein or virus particle detection are predicted.     

Two-nucleon transfer reactions in deformed nuclei using very heavy ions

Semiclassical methods found to be highly accurate for inelastic scattering are applied to the calculation of rotational population signatures in heavy-ion two-neutron transfer reactions involving highly deformed targets. Basic features to be expected for such reactions are predicted, and are shown to have straightforward semiclassical interpretations. The rotational population signatures for 2-neutron transfer are shown to be quite different from those expected for the analogous inelastic scattering case. Several calculations are shown for Xe projectiles on rare-earth targets, and it is demonstrated that such reactions can provide a unique probe of nuclear structure in high angular momentum states. The extension of the general ideas employed here to 1-nucleon transfer in deformed nuclei and to several other examples of transfer to highly collective states in deformed and vibrational nuclei using very heavy ions is briefly considered. Experimental possibilities are discussed, and it is concluded that relevant experiments in this virtually unexplored area are possible using sophisticated particle-γ spectroscopic techniques.     

(2+1)-Dimensional spacetime with rotation and expansion

The (2+1)-dimensional Einstein equations are solved exactly for a viscous fluid with both rotation and expansion. The thermodynamic relations are investigated and relevant physical quantities, including coefficients of viscosity and thermal conductivity, are shown to be physically reasonable for a range of coordinate values corresponding to an interior fluid solution. This range of coordinates must be restricted further if closed timelike curves are to be excluded.     

Dipole and quadrupole solitons in optically-induced two-dimensional defocusing photonic lattices

Dipole and quadrupole solitons in a two-dimensional optically induced defocusing photonic lattice are theoretically predicted and experimentally observed. It is shown that in-phase nearest-neighbor and out-of-phase next-nearest-neighbor dipoles exist and can be stable in the intermediate intensity regime. There are also different types of dipoles that are always unstable. In-phase nearest-neighbor quadrupoles are also numerically obtained, and may also be linearly stable. Out-of-phase, nearest-neighbor quadrupoles are found to be typically unstable. These numerical results are found to be aligned with the main predictions obtained analytically in the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger model. Finally, experimental results are presented for both dipole and quadrupole structures, indicating that self-trapping of such structures in the defocusing lattice can be realized for the length of the nonlinear crystal (10 mm).
