Faraday Rotation of Overdense Magnetized Plasma

In this study, we investigate Faraday rotation of electromagnetic waves that are anomalously transmitted through an over‐dense magnetized plasma layer. Here, magnetized plasma indicates that the plasma layer is immersed in a uniform magnetic field. Firstly, normally opaque over‐dense magnetized plasma is shown to be transparent to obliquely incident electromagnetic waves. This high transparency can be achieved by providing conditions for resonant excitations of plasmonic modes. The resonant characteristics of the transmission coefficient of the considered structure are determined and discussed. The conditions under which the magnetized plasma behaves as a complete reflector are also obtained. Faraday rotation is shown to be enhanced under high transparency conditions. The reflected wave also exhibits Faraday rotation and is enhanced under total reflection conditions. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

磁性颗粒膜法拉第转角的研究

在外磁场作用下,复合介质的法拉第磁光效应依赖于颗粒膜电介质张量。而复合介质的电介质张量的计算相当复杂。运用了有效介质近似理论,利用非均匀复合介质的有效电场等于单个颗粒中局域场的平均值的自恰条件,由电介质张量εe方程及自洽条件导出了计算磁性颗粒膜系统磁光法拉第转角的解析公式。并应用导出的关系,以Cu金属颗粒为例,讨论了颗粒膜中金属颗粒含量及对应的基质、离子浓度、颗粒形状对法拉第转角的影响,结果表明,利用有效介质近似理论计算的结果与实验结果一致。     

Possible Supernova Multi-Explosions and Induced Gravitational Collapse

In this paper, three hotly discussed problems, namely the neutrino bursts, the blue progenitor, and the mixing phenomenon, observed in SN1987A are summarized. But it is pointed that while all the observations on SN1987A do not favour a twice-banged scenario, we have found three historical cases from ancient Chinese documents that might be interpreted as twice- or even multi-explosions of a supernova. Finally in a one-dimensional simulation we demonstrate that an induced gravitational collapse b possible.     

Measurement of Carrier Parameters in InSb Using Faraday Rotation

Carrier properties of n-type InSb doped with tellurium at liquid nitrogen temperature have been estimated by means of transmission of a millimeter wave (119.3 GHz) propagating along a magnetic field with intensity up to 4 T. The information on carrier properties is obtained from the Faraday rotation arising from the difference between phase velocities of two circularly polarized components. The advantage of this method lies in the fact that it allows both the electron density and effective mass to be measured simultaneously.     

Generation of Atomic Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger States Based on Faraday Rotation

Based on the input-output relation of the cavity and the Faraday Rotation mechanism, we propose a scheme for generating the n-atom Greenberger Horne-Zeilinger state. In the scheme, the n-atom trapped respectively in n spatially separate cavities would be entangled with the photons going through the atom-cavity system. The successful probabilities of our protocol approach unity in the ideal case. What is more, no requirement for separately addressing further lowers experimental difficulties.     

Theoretical Investigation of the Faraday Rotation Effect in Atomic Alkali Nano-Layers

Theoretical studies of the Faraday rotation (FR) effect in alkali vapors contained in extremely thin cells are presented. It is shown that the spectra of the FR signal are well frequency resolved despite the huge number of atomic transitions. This allows one to study the evolution of the Cs D₁ (λ = 895 nm) line hyperfine structure of F_g = 4 → F_e = 3, 4 atomic transitions in magnetic fields. The presented theoretical model predicts the coherent Dicke narrowing effect and its revival with a periodicity Δ_L = λ. The practical applications of the FR are noted.

Possible Resonator Configurations for the Spherical Gravitational Wave Antenna

We solve algebraically the equations of motion for a spherical antenna coupled to an arbitrary number of small resonators, free to move radially, and investigate the conditions under which damping forces can be neglected in the system. We show that in order that the antenna's modes be decoupled a preferred distribution of the resonators on its surface should be used. We find that either 5, 6, 10 or 16 resonators can be used as long as they are conveniently positioned on the antenna's surface. We calculate and analyse the frequency shift and the signal-to-noise ratio of the coupled system for the various distributions studied.     

The Quantum Measurement Problem and the Possible Role of the Gravitational Field

The quantum measurement problem and various unsuccessful attempts to resolve it are reviewed. A suggestion by Diosi and Penrose for the half-life of the quantum superposition of two Newtonian gravitational fields is generalized to an arbitrary quantum superposition of relativistic, but weak, gravitational fields. The nature of the collapse process of the wave function is examined.     

地球和月球的公转周期与自转周期

1 引言 众所周知,年是以地球绕太阳公转周期为基准的时间单位,月是以月球绕地球公转周期为基准的时间单位,日是以地球自转周期为基准的时间单位.但是,由于任何历法中的历年内所包含的月数和日数以及历月内所包含的日数总是整数,因此我们平常使用的公历或夏历(俗称农历)中所规定的历年、历月、历日,其实都与地球和月球的公转周期或自转周期并不完全相等.     

Cluster State Entanglement of Semiconductor Quantum Dots Based on Faraday Rotation

We propose a scheme for a large-scale cluster state preparation of single-charged semiconductor quantum dots utilizing Faraday rotation. Without interaction between quantum dots, the exciton induced Faraday rotation could distribute the spatially separate quantum dots into a quantum network assisted by cavity QED. We obtain the corresponding parameters from the numerical simulation based on the input-output process for the required Faraday rotation and some discussion is made in view of experimental feasibility.     

Implementation of Quantum Controlled Phase Gate and Entanglement Swapping via Photonic Faraday Rotation

We propose deterministic and scalable schemes to realize quantum controlled phase gate between two distant atoms and implement entanglement swapping between two EPR pairs by means of cavity-assisted photon scattering. Due to cavity quantum electrodynamics and the atom selection rule, left circular polarized and right circular polarized single-photon pulse reflected from the cavity obtain different phase shifts, which yields giant Faraday rotation. It can be used to realize universal quantum gates and implement quantum information processing with current technology. Our schemes can work well even the cavity is in low-Q case.     

Possible Alterations of Local Gravitational Field Inside a Superconductor

We calculate the possible interaction between a superconductor and the static Earth’s gravitational fields, making use of the gravito-Maxwell formalism combined with the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau theory. We try to estimate which are the most favorable conditions to enhance the effect, optimizing the superconductor parameters characterizing the chosen sample. We also give a qualitative comparison of the behavior of high–Tc and classical low–Tc superconductors with respect to the gravity/superfluid interplay.     

Possible Tests of Curvature Effects in Weak Gravitational Fields

The possibility of performing in proximity of the Earth experiments to test the predictions of general relativity for the trajectories of particles and photons in weak gravitational fields is studied. Three experiments are analyzed, all based on optical detection methods. The first experiment would allow to detect the tidal acceleration using a freely-falling Michelson interferometer. In a second experiment, based on laser-ranging methods, the relativistic correction to the classical gravity acceleration could be detected. Finally, the possibility of detecting light deflection induced by space curvature in an optical cavity with high-reflectivity mirrors is discussed.     

Faraday and Cotton-Mouton effects for acoustic phonons in paramagnetic Rare Earth compounds

A theory is developed for the Faraday effect and Cotton-Mouton effect of acoustic phonons in paramagnetic Rare Earth systems. The effects occur if degenerate transverse acoustic phonons are propagating in the direction of an applied magnetic field and perpendicular to it. The theory is formulated for cubic crystals but a generalization to other crystal symmetries is straightforward. The theoretical findings are applied to TmTe and it is demonstrated that both effects are large enough to be observable.
