We propose a method for simulating (2+1)D compact lattice quantum-electrodynamics, using ultracold atoms in optical lattices. In our model local Bose-Einstein condensates' (BECs) phases correspond to the electromagnetic vector potential, and the local number operators represent the conjugate electric field. The well-known gauge-invariant Kogut-Susskind Hamiltonian is obtained as an effective low-energy theory. The field is then coupled to external static charges. We show that in the strong coupling limit this gives rise to "electric flux tubes" and to confinement. This can be observed by measuring the local density deviations of the BECs, and is expected to hold even, to some extent, outside the perturbative calculable regime.  相似文献

Abstract

It is shown that the use of negative muons as solid state probes is complicated by the de-excitation scheme of muonic atoms. A comparison with some recent radiation damage experiments suggest that the μ? atom (at least in silicon) is displaced to an interstitial position.  相似文献

Within GaAs/Ga1?xAlx As MBE grown superlattices (SL), a few GaAs wells have been purposely enlarged. Calculations show that enlarged wells introduce localized states in the SL band gap: the distance between such a localized state and the bottom of the SL conduction band (or the top of the SL valence band) depends on the SL period and the enlarged well size. Luminescence and photoluminescence excitation results obtained on samples with different periods and enlarged well sizes are in good agreement with calculations.Once characterized, enlarged wells serve as probes in the study of SL optical and electrical properties. As examples, they were used to observe one monolayer size fluctuations and vertical transport by luminescence in GaAs/Ga1?xAlxAs superlattices.  相似文献

If string theory is correct, then our observable Universe may be a 3-dimensional “brane” embedded in a higher-dimensional spacetime. This theoretical scenario should be tested via the state-of-the-art in gravitational experiments—the current and upcoming gravity-wave detectors. Indeed, the existence of extra dimensions leads to oscillations that leave a spectroscopic signature in the gravity-wave signal from black holes. The detectors that have been designed to confirm Einstein's prediction of gravity waves, can in principle also provide tests and constraints on string theory.

3‐(4‐Nitrophenylethenyl‐E)‐NH‐indole ( 1 ), 3‐(4‐nitrophenyl ethenyl‐E)‐N‐acetylindole ( 2 ), and 3‐(4‐nitrophenylethenyl‐E)‐N‐benzenesulfonylindole ( 3 ) are relatively less fluorescent in organic solvents, with fluorescence quantum yield (Φf) in the range of 0.002 to 0.066 depending on the solvent polarity. However, in bovine serum albumin (BSA)‐phosphate buffer, the fluorescence of these compounds gets drastically enhanced with Φf in the range of 0.21 to 0.67, depending on the substituent on the indolic nitrogen atom. Additionally, linear increase in the fluorescence intensity of 2 and 3 occurs on increasing the BSA concentration. These fluorescence properties together with the neutral, hydrophobic nature of these compounds make these fluorophores good fluorescence probe for studying the micropolarity of proteins like BSA and in general the ligand–protein interactions.

The lanthanide ions reacted with the nucleotides to form a complex in which the lanthanides served as sensitive fluorescent probes. By selectively exciting the nucleotide, the quantum efficiency of narrow-line lanthanide ion fluorescence can be calculated. Quantum efficiency values of 0.19 to 0.01 and 0.14 to 0.01 were obtained for Tb+3 and Eu+3 respectively. For Dy+3 and Sm+3 the values were too low to measure accurately for most nucleotides. The binding of the lanthanides to the nucleotides can be reversed by prolonged dialysis against chelating agents. Between pH 3 and pH 7 the complex precipitates and approaches a maximum of lanthanide ion fluorescence at pH 5.5.  相似文献

Metal ion complexes provide flexible paramagnetic centers that may be used to define intermolecular contacts in a variety of solution phase environments because both the charge and electronic relaxation properties of the complex may be varied. For most complex ions, there are several proton equilibria that may change the effective charge on the complex as a function of pH which in turn affects the efficacy of application for defining the electrostatic surfaces of co-solute molecules. We report here spectrophotometric and nuclear spin relaxation studies on aqueous solutions of chromium(III) complexes of EDTA, DTPA, and bis-amides of both. The effective charges available from these paramagnetic centers range from -3 to +1 and we report the pH ranges over which the effective charge is defined with confidence for application in magnetic relaxation experiments.  相似文献

When a quantum-chaotic normal conductor is coupled to a superconductor, the random-matrix theory (RMT) predicts that a gap opens up in the excitation spectrum which is of universal size E(g)(RMT) approximately 0.3 Planck/t(D), where t(D) is the mean scattering time between Andreev reflections. We show that a scarred state of long lifetime t(S)>t(D) suppresses the excitation gap over a window DeltaE approximately 2E(g)(RMT) which can be much larger than the narrow resonance width GammaS= Planck/t(S) of the scar in the normal system. The minimal value of the excitation gap within this window is given by GammaS/2相似文献

Recent progress in the understanding of the statistical nature of black hole entropy shows that the counting functions in certain classes of models are determined by automorphic forms of higher rank. In this paper we combine these results with Langlands? reciprocity conjecture to view black holes as probes of the geometry of spacetime. This point of view can be applied in any framework leading to automorphic forms, independently of the degree of supersymmetry of the models. In the present work we focus on the class of Chaudhuri-Hockney-Lykken compactifications defined as quotients associated to ZN groups. We show that the black hole entropy of these CHLN models can be derived from elliptic motives, thereby providing the simplest possible geometric building blocks of the Siegel type entropy count.  相似文献

Metal ions are ubiquitous in the biosphere. In living organisms metalloproteins with specifically designed metal cores perform vital chemical processes. On the other hand, several heavy metals are detrimental to living organisms and nature has developed effective enzymatic detoxification systems which convert toxic metal ions to less toxic species. The nuclear spectroscopy technique Time Differential Perturbed Angular Correlation (TDPAC) of γ-rays uses radioactive isotopes as nuclear probes in these metal cores to obtain a better understanding of the structural and functional significance of these metal cores by monitoring the nuclear quadrupole interaction of the TDPAC probe. Since this technique is based on the nuclear decay, it is also applicable under physiological conditions, i.e., especially at picomolar concentrations. For these studies an indispensable prerequisite is the production of the TDPAC probes with highest possible specific activity and purity as is done by the on-line mass separator ISOLDE at CERN in Geneva. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

The lensing effect of a cosmic string is studied, and some new methods are proposed to detect the cosmic string. The technique for using jets as extended gravitational lensing probes was first explored by Kronberg.We use the “alignment-breaking parameter” ηG as a sensitive indicator of gravitational distortion by a wiggly cosmic string. Then, we applied the non-constant deflection angle to jets, and ηG of a specific jet is just related to the projected slope of the jet. At least three jets in the sample of Square Kilometer Array (SKA) would have significant signals (ηG>10°) if the wiggly infinite cosmic string existed. The distortion of elliptical object is also studied and used to do a statistical research on the directions of axes and ellipticities of galaxies. In the direction of the string, we find that galaxies appear to be more elliptical for an observer and the distribution of apparent ellipticity changes correspondingly. The ellipticity distribution of current SDSS spiral sample has the signalto-noise ratio up to 8.48 which is large enough for astronomical observations. The future survey, such as Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) and Dark Energy Survey (DES) would weaken the requirement of special geometry in the data processing. As a result, all kinds of distributions, including ellipticity axis distribution, would serve as probes to detect wiggly strings in the near future. In brief, if a wiggly cosmic string existed, these signals would be convenient to be observed with the future weak lensing survey or other surveys in the deep space. If there was no lensing signal in these distributions, it would give the upper limit of the abundance of infinite strings.  相似文献

We review several aspects of flavour-diagonal CP-violation, focussing on the role played by the electric dipole moments (EDMs) of leptons, nucleons, atoms, and molecules, which constitute the source of several stringent constraints on new CP-violating physics. We dwell specifically on the calculational aspects of applying the hadronic EDM constraints, reviewing in detail the application of QCD sum-rules to the calculation of nucleon EDMs and CP-odd pion-nucleon couplings. We also consider the current status of EDMs in the Standard Model, and on the ensuing constraints on the underlying sources of CP-violation in physics beyond the Standard Model, focussing on weak-scale supersymmetry.  相似文献

It is shown that the relative intensity of the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) band of ester and benzonitrile derivatives of dialkylaniline in polymethylmethacrylate polymer matrices of different molecular weights (MW) to increase with increasing MW of the polymer. Our results emphasis the role of local free volumes (mobility in the matrix cage) and focus attention on the role of the MW of the polymer on the fluorescence of various TICT probes. These observations are confirmed by the red edge effect and fluorescence decay results.  相似文献
