A new realislic local model of light propagation and detection is described. The authors propose a novel stochastic model of low-intensity photon detection in which background noise is added to a part of the photon prior to absorption. In this model, in agreement with Planck, there is no quantization of the propagating field. The model has some similarities to theories advanced by E. Santos and T. Marshall in the last decade, but also has substantial deviations from these. A mechanism, conserving energy and momentum, is proposed by which a sudden collapse of the wave-packet is avoided. The experimental Bell inequality violation of Aspect. Grangier and Roger [Phys. Rev. Lett.47, 460 (1981)]is discussed. The authors have carried out a computer simulation of a radio frequency (RF) analogue of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen thought experiment to illustrate how the manipulation of certain factors, especially signal to noise ratio, detector threshold and characteristics of the noise, enables the same Bell inequality to be either satisfied or violated by a realistic local model. Building on arguments by Santos. [Phys. Rev. A46. 3646 (1992)],the appropriateness of this Bell lest is discussed. Neither the authors' stochastic-optical model, nor their RF analogue, involves an enhancement assumption of the type defined by Clauser and Horne [Phys. Rev. D10, 526 (1974)]. 相似文献

The pair correlation function of hard hyperspheres in six, seven and eight dimensions is obtained from Monte Carlo simulations.
The value of the pair correlation function at contact is compared with the results from molecular dynamics calculations and
a variety of theoretical approaches. Remarkably good agreement is found with the simple, closed-form equations of Y. Song,
E. A. Mason and R. M. Stratt, J. Phys. Chem., 93:6916–6919 (1989). The Monte Carlo results for the equation of state are compared with the theoretical expressions of M. Baus
and J. L. Colot, Phys. Rev. A, 36:3912 (1987), M. Luban and J. P. J. Michels, Phys. Rev A, 41:6796 (1990), and high order virial expansions. In addition, in seven dimensions, comparisons are made with the exact PY solution
provided by M. Robles, M. L. de Haro and A. Santos, J. Chem. Phys., 120:9113 (2004). Very good agreement was observed between theory and computer simulation in all dimensions. 相似文献

It has recently been shown that growth of a multilayer
structure with one or more delta-layers at high temperature leads to
spreading and asymmetrization of the dopant distribution [see, for

Singleton, Phys. Rev. B 59, 10712 (1999); G. Li, C. Jagadish, Solid-State Electronics 41, 1207 (1997)]. In this
work analytical and numerical analysis of dopant dynamics in a
delta-doped area of a multilayer structure has been accomplished
using Fick's second law. Some reasons for asymmetrization of a
delta-dopant distribution are illustrated. The spreading of a
delta-layer has been estimated using example materials of a
multilayer structure, a delta-layer and an overlayer. 相似文献

Human beings like to believe they are in control of their
destiny. This ubiquitous trait seems to increase motivation and persistence,
and is probably evolutionarily adaptive [J.D. Taylor, S.E. Brown, Psych. Bull. 103, 193 (1988); A. Bandura,
Self-efficacy: the exercise of control (WH Freeman, New
York, 1997)]. But how good really is our
ability to control? How successful is our track record in these areas? There
is little understanding of when and under what circumstances we may
over-estimate [E. Langer, J. Pers. Soc. Psych. 7, 185 (1975)] or even lose our ability to control and optimize outcomes,
especially when they are the result of aggregations of individual
optimization processes. Here, we demonstrate analytically using the theory
of Markov Chains and by numerical simulations in two classes of games, the
Time-Horizon Minority Game [M.L. Hart, P. Jefferies, N.F. Johnson, Phys. A 311, 275 (2002)] and the Parrondo Game
[J.M.R. Parrondo, G.P. Harmer, D. Abbott, Phys. Rev. Lett.
85, 5226 (2000); J.M.R. Parrondo, How to cheat a bad mathematician (ISI, Italy, 1996)], that agents
who optimize their strategy based on past information may actually perform
worse than non-optimizing agents. In other words, low-entropy (more
informative) strategies under-perform high-entropy (or random) strategies.
This provides a precise definition of the “illusion of control” in certain
set-ups a priori defined to emphasize the importance of optimization.

We continue the study of parametric down conversion within the framework of the Wigner representation, by using a Maxwellian
approach developed in a recent paper [A. Casado et al., Eur. Phys. J. D 11, 465 (2000)]. This gives a mechanism, inside the crystal, for the production of the down-converted radiation. We obtain the
electric field to second order in the coupling constant by using the Green's function method, and compare our treatment with
the standard Hamiltonian approach. The spectrum of the down-converted radiation is calculated as a function of the parameters
of the nonlinear crystal (in particular the length) and the radius of the pumping beam.

The thermoelastic behaviour of polyvinylacetate monolayers spread on an aqueous subphase has been studied using rheological
data previously published (Monroy et al., Phys. Rev. E 58, 7629 (1998)). The results show fluid-like viscoelastic behaviour well above a transition temperature , while at lower temperatures a soft solid-like behaviour emerges. The correlation between thermodynamic and elastic properties
below can be described in terms of scaling laws.

De Raedt et al. [Eur. Phys. J. B 53, 139 (2006)] have claimed to provide a
local realist model for correlations of the singlet state in the
familiar Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm (EPRB) experiment when
time-coincidence is used to decide which detection events should
count in the analysis, and furthermore that this suggests that it is
possible to construct local realistic models that can reproduce the
quantum mechanical expectation values. In this letter we show that
these conclusions cannot be upheld since their model exploits the
so-called coincidence-time loophole. When this is properly taken into account no startling conclusions can be drawn about
local realist modelling of quantum
mechanics. 相似文献

A new scheme of the influence of quantum interference on the spontaneous emission in a coherently driven three-level medium
is presented in this paper. The results are the same with that discussed by [S.-Y. Zhu, L.M. Narducci, M.O. Scully, Phys.
Rev. A 52, 4791 (1995)] under resonance conditions, but they are different when the driven field is detuned.

Coupled aggregation and sedimentation processes were studied by means of three-dimensional computer simulations. For this
purpose, a large prism with no periodic boundary conditions for the sedimentation direction was considered. Furthermore, three
equally sized and mutually excluded regions were defined inside the prism, a top, a middle and a bottom region. This allows
to study the time evolution of the cluster size distribution and the cluster structure separately for each region. The mass
distribution profile and the center-of-mass position were also accessed as a function of time. For the bottom region, the
effects of the sediment formation on the kinetics of growth and on the cluster structure were clearly observed. The obtained
results not only agree with the experimental data obtained by Allain et al. (C. Allain, M. Cloitre, M. Wafra, Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 1478 (1995)) and with the simulations made by Gonzalez (A.E. Gonzalez, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 1243 (2001)), but also allow to gain further insight into the details.

We interpret measurements of the Reynolds number dependence of the torque in Taylor-Couette flow by Lewis and Swinney [Phys.
Rev. E 59, 5457 (1999)] and of the pressure drop in pipe flow by Smits and Zagarola [Phys. Fluids 10, 1045 (1998)] within the scaling theory of Grossmann and Lohse [J. Fluid Mech. 407, 27 (2000)], developed in the context of thermal convection. The main idea is to split the energy dissipation into contributions
from a boundary layer and the turbulent bulk. This ansatz can account for the observed scaling in both cases if it is assumed
that the internal wind velocity introduced through the rotational or pressure forcing is related to the external (imposed) velocity U, by with and for the Taylor-Couette (U inner cylinder velocity) and pipe flow (U mean flow velocity) case, respectively. In contrast to the Rayleigh-Bénard case the scaling exponents cannot (yet) be derived
from the dynamical equations.

Based on exact asymptotic properties of the composition-independent virial coefficients of a binary mixture of hard discs in the limits α = σ2/σ1 → 0, α → 1 and α → ∞, R. J. Wheatley (1998, Molec. Phys., 93, 965) has recently proposed an approximate interpolation equation for these coefficients. In this note, the equation of state equivalent to this interpolation is obtained, expressing the compressibility factor of the mixture in terms of that of the pure system. An extension to an arbitrary number of components is also given. The equation of state derived here is compared with another one recently proposed by following a different route (Santos, A., Yuste, S. B., and López de Haro, M., 1999, Molec. Phys., 96, 1) and with Monte Carlo simulation results. It is shown that the latter equation is more accurate than the former one, at least for not too disparate mixtures (0.7 < α < 1). 相似文献

The thermal efficiency of the kinesin cycle at stalling is presently a matter of some debate, with published predictions ranging
from 0 [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 158102 (2007); Phys. Rev. E 78, 011915 (2008)] to 100% [in Molecular Motors, edited by M. Schliwa (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, Weinheim (2003), p. 207]. In this note we attemp to clarify the issues involved.
We also find an upper bound on the kinesin efficiency by constructing an ideal kinesin cycle to which the real cycle may be compared. The ideal cycle has a thermal efficiency of less than one, and the real one is less
efficient than the ideal one always, in compliance with Carnot’s theorem. 相似文献

Some MIT researchers [Phys. Rev. A
75, 042327 (2007)] have recently claimed that
their implementation of the Slutsky-Brandt attack [Phys. Rev. A
57, 2383 (1998); Phys. Rev. A 71, 042312 (2005)] to
the BB84 quantum-key-distribution (QKD) protocol puts the security of this
protocol “to the test” by simulating “the most powerful
individual-photon attack” [Phys. Rev. A 73, 012315
(2006)].
A related unfortunate news feature by a
scientific journal [G. Brumfiel, Quantum cryptography is hacked, News @ Nature (april 2007); Nature 447, 372 (2007)]
has spurred some concern in the QKD community and among the general public
by misinterpreting the implications of this work. The present article
proves the existence of a stronger individual attack on QKD protocols with
encrypted error correction, for which tight bounds are shown, and clarifies
why the claims of the news feature incorrectly suggest a contradiction with
the established “old-style” theory of BB84 individual attacks.
The full implementation of a quantum cryptographic protocol includes a
reconciliation and a privacy-amplification stage, whose choice alters in
general both the maximum extractable secret and the optimal eavesdropping
attack. The authors of [Phys. Rev. A
75, 042327 (2007)] are concerned only with the error-free
part of the so-called sifted string, and do not consider faulty bits,
which, in the version of their protocol, are discarded. When using the
provably superior reconciliation approach of encrypted error correction
(instead of error discard), the Slutsky-Brandt attack is no more optimal
and does not “threaten” the security bound derived by Lütkenhaus [Phys. Rev. A 59, 3301 (1999)].
It is shown that the method of Slutsky and collaborators [Phys. Rev. A
57, 2383 (1998)] can
be adapted to reconciliation with error correction, and that the optimal
entangling probe can be explicitly found. Moreover, this attack fills
Lütkenhaus bound, proving that it is tight (a fact which was not
previously known). 相似文献

We discuss the possibility of preparing an atomic sample of atoms with minimum fluctuations in the difference between populations
of two levels. A first scheme involves absorption of twin beams of light, and it presents a variant of a recent proposal for
atomic spin squeezing within an excited state manifold [Kuzmich et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 4782 (1997)]. A second scheme involves atoms with two stable states, and we suggest that by use of quantum non-demolition
detection and feed-back optical pumping, we may ensure a perfect agreement between the number of atoms in these two states.
