The high-temperature relaxation function of a spin system with a quadratic contribution of fluctuations to the resonance frequency

We investigate the high-temperature relaxation function of a spin system with quadratic coupling of the resonance frequency to the Gaussian random process. In the general case, this function is expressed as an integral of an infinite auxiliary series. For theN-exponential Gauss Markov process, the problem is reduced to solving a system of 2N linear equations. For brevity, we analyze the effect of fluctuations on the form of the magnetic resonance line (the Fourier image of the relaxation function). For both the one- and multiexponential processes in a crystal with dynamics of a relaxation type in the continuous phase transition domain, we find a nonmonotonic dependence of the asymmetrical homogeneously widened resonance line on the rate of fluctuations.

Dynamics of a system with three-spin interaction in the approximation of a Gaussian fluctuating local field

For a system of spins with effective Hamiltonian induced by a strong rf field, a study is made of the effect of fluctuations of the precession frequency on the form of the spin time correlation functions (TCF). In Anderson's approximation, the two-spin interaction makes a contribution to this frequency corresponding to a Gaussian fluctuating local field, whereas the three-spin interaction makes two contributions: one involving the square of this field and another that can be expressed in terms of a new Gaussian random variable. Expressions are obtained that make it possible to calculate the TCF for a Gaussian random process with arbitrary correlation function. Various limiting cases are discussed. The calculations are made for noise with correlation functions of exponential and Gaussian forms. It is shown that the properties of the TCF of a system with three-spin interaction differ from the known properties for systems with two-spin interaction.L. V.

Refinements of the Dubins–Savage Inequality

This paper sharpens the Dubins–Savage inequality for certain supermartingales whose conditional moment-generating functions are suitably bounded. In particular, sharper inequalities are derived for generalized gaussian, sub-normal and sub-Poisson sequences. A related inequality due to Khan is also refined.     

Controlling quantum coherence of atom laser by light with strong strength

A new method for controlling the quantum coherence of atom laser by applying input light with strong strength is presented within the framework of quantum dynamical theory. Unlike the case of rotating wave approximation(RWA), we show that the non-classical properties, such as sub-Poisson distribution and quadrature squeezed effect, can appear in the output atom laser beam with time. By choosing suitable initial RF phase, a steady and brighter output of squeezed coherent atom laser is also available.     

Investigation of physiological pulsatile flow in a model arterial stenosis using large-eddy and direct numerical simulations

Physiological pulsatile flow in a 3D model of arterial stenosis is investigated by using large eddy simulation (LES) technique. The computational domain chosen is a simple channel with a biological type stenosis formed eccentrically on the top wall. The physiological pulsation is generated at the inlet using the first harmonic of the Fourier series of pressure pulse. In LES, the large scale flows are resolved fully while the unresolved subgrid scale (SGS) motions are modelled using a localized dynamic model. Due to the narrowing of artery the pulsatile flow becomes transition-to-turbulent in the downstream region of the stenosis, where a high level of turbulent fluctuations is achieved, and some detailed information about the nature of these fluctuations are revealed through the investigation of the turbulent energy spectra. Transition-to-turbulent of the pulsatile flow in the post stenosis is examined through the various numerical results such as velocity, streamlines, velocity vectors, vortices, wall pressure and shear stresses, turbulent kinetic energy, and pressure gradient. A comparison of the LES results with the coarse DNS are given for the Reynolds number of 2000 in terms of the mean pressure, wall shear stress as well as the turbulent characteristics. The results show that the shear stress at the upper wall is low just prior to the centre of the stenosis, while it is maximum in the throat of the stenosis. But, at the immediate post stenotic region, the wall shear stress takes the oscillating form which is quite harmful to the blood cells and vessels. In addition, the pressure drops at the throat of the stenosis where the re-circulated flow region is created due to the adverse pressure gradient. The maximum turbulent kinetic energy is located at the post stenosis with the presence of the inertial sub-range region of slope −5/3.     

Double Aztec diamonds and the tacnode process

Discrete and continuous non-intersecting random processes have given rise to critical “infinite-dimensional diffusions”, like the Airy process, the Pearcey process and variations thereof. It has been known that domino tilings of very large Aztec diamonds lead macroscopically to a disordered region within an inscribed ellipse (arctic circle in the homogeneous case), and a regular brick-like region outside the ellipse. The fluctuations near the ellipse, appropriately magnified and away from the boundary of the Aztec diamond, form an Airy process, run with time tangential to the boundary.     

Some features of viscous gas flow injected into a supersonic stream from the lateral surface of a cylinder

The article presents a procedure and results of numerical analysis of the structure of flow near an elongated cylinder with a spherically blunted nose that moves with a supersonic velocity with local injection of gas from its lateral surface. The analysis is based on the solution of the full Navier-Stokes equations for a compressible gas. Nonstationary fluctuations in the region of the condensation discontinuity are detected in the given range of Mach and Reynolds numbers.

Frequency and dependence of long range temporal correlations in human hippocampal energy fluctuations

Spontaneous energy fluctuations in human hippocampal EEG show prominent amplitude and temporal variability. Here we show hippocampal energy fluctuations often exhibit long‐range temporal correlations with power‐law scaling. In most cases this scaling behavior persisted on time scales in excess of 10 minutes, the maximum duration we could detect with our recording durations. During these epochs we find that the energy fluctuations exhibit long‐range correlations over a broad frequency range (0.5–100 Hz) with greater persistence of the correlations in the lower frequency bands (0.5–30 Hz) than the higher (30–100 Hz). The correlation in hippocampal energy fluctuations is characterized by a bias for energy fluctuations to be followed by similar magnitude fluctuations over all energy scales, i.e. large fluctuations begets large fluctuations and small begets small. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Achieving high-efficiency second harmonic generation in a sequence of laser pulses with random peak intensity. Part I. Efficient generation in optical fibers

The study examines the possibility of suppressing peak intensity fluctuations in a sequence of fixed-energy femtosecond pulses using so-called cascade second harmonic generation (SHG). In Part I we consider the propagation of light pulses in an optical fiber with quadratic and cubic nonlinearity. We show that, for a given fiber length, high mean efficiency of frequency conversion can be achieved simultaneously with minimum intensity fluctuations. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Matematika i Informatika, No. 27, pp. 5–24, 2007.     

Anomalous scaling in the model of turbulent advection of a vector field

We consider the model of turbulent advection of a passive vector field ϕ by a two-dimensional random velocity field uncorrelated in time and having Gaussian statistics with a powerlike correlator. The renormalization group and operator product expansion methods show that the asymptotic form of the structure functions of the ϕ field in the inertial range is determined by the fluctuations of the energy dissipation rate. The dependence of the asymptotic form on the external turbulence scale is essential and has a powerlike form (anomalous scaling). The corresponding exponents are determined by the spectrum of the anomalous dimension matrices of operator families consisting of gradients of ϕ. We find a basis constructed from powers of the dissipation and enstrophy operators in which these matrices have a triangular form in all orders of the perturbation theory. In the two-loop approximation, we evaluate the anomalous-scaling exponents for the structure functions of an arbitrary order. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 146, No. 3, pp. 467–487, March, 2006.     

Formation of uniformly sized metal droplets from a capillary jet by electromagnetic force

A new method for producing uniformly sized metal droplets is proposed. In this method, an intermittent electromagnetic pinch force is applied to a capillary jet of liquid metal to generate fluctuations of equal interval on the surface of the jet. As the fluctuations grow, the liquid metal jet breaks into small droplets whose size depends on the frequency of the intermittent electromagnetic pinch force. The breakup of the capillary jet is numerically simulated by performing multiphase fluid flow analysis with surface tracking (volume of fluid method) and electromagnetic force analysis. The simulation results agree well with the results of model experiments. The jet breaks up into uniformly sized droplets when the frequency of the intermittent force equals the frequency that corresponds to the natural disturbance wavelength of the capillary jet.     

Temporal and spatial chaos in a van der Waals fluid due to periodic thermal fluctuations

The Mel'nikov technique is applied to prove the existence of deterministic chaos in two problems for a van der Waals fluid. The first problem shows that temporal chaos results as a result of small time periodic fluctuations about a subcritical temperature when the fluid is initially quenched in the unstable spinoidal region. The second problem shows that spatial chaos arises from small spatially periodic flunctions in an infinite tube of fluid if the ambient pressure is appropriately chosen.     

Exact solution in a string cosmological model

We construct an exact solution of the Friedmann equations with a phantom scalar matter field originating in string field theory and show the absence of the big-rip singularity. The notable features of the model are a ghost sign of the kinetic term and a special polynomial form of the effective tachyon potential. The constructed solution is stable under small fluctuations of the initial conditions and special variations of the form of the potential. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 148, No. 1, pp. 23–41, July, 2006.

Charge density fluctuation of low frequency in a dusty plasma

The charge density fluctuation of low frequency in a dusty plasma, which is derived from the longitudinal dielectric permittivity of the dusty plasma, has been studied by kinetic theory. The results show that theP value, which describes the relative charge density on the dust in the plasma, and the charging frequency of a dust particle Ω _c , which describes the ratio of charge changing of the dust particles, determine the character of the charge density fluctuation of low frequency. For a dusty plasma ofP≪1, when the charging frequency Ω _c , is much smaller than the dusty plasma frequency ω_d, there is a strong charge density fluctuation which is of character of dust acoustic eigenwave. For a dusty plasma ofP≫1, when the frequency Ω _c , is much larger than ω _d there are weaker fluctuations with a wide spectrum. The results have been applied to the ionosphere and the range of radius and density of dust particles is found, where a strong charge density fluctuation of low frequency should exist.     

Analysis of effect of random perturbation on dynamic response of gear transmission system

In order to investigate the effects of random perturbation of a low-frequency excitation caused by torque fluctuations, gear damping ratio, gear backlash, meshing frequency and meshing stiffness, the random dynamic model of a single pair of three-degree-of-freedom spur gear transmission system is established. With gear meshing frequency changing, the dynamic characteristics of the gear transmission system were analyzed by bifurcation diagram, phase diagram, time course diagram and Poincaré map of the system. The effects of random perturbation caused by a low-frequency excitation caused by torque fluctuations, gear damping ratio, gear backlash, meshing frequency and meshing stiffness were comparative analyzed. Numerical simulation shows that the gear transmission system with nonlinear clearance exists rich period-doubling bifurcation phenomenon. With the increasing of the gear meshing frequency, gear transmission system will be from the chaotic motion to periodic motion by inverse period-doubling bifurcation. The effect of the meshing frequency random perturbation on the gear transmission system movement is largest. On the contrary, the effect of the meshing stiffness random perturbation on the system is minimum.     

Heat kernel fluctuations for a resistance form with non-uniform volume growth

In this article, we consider the problem of estimating the heatkernel on measure-metric spaces equipped with a resistance form.Such spaces admit a corresponding resistance metric that reflectsthe conductivity properties of the set. In this situation, ithas been proved that when there is uniform polynomial volumegrowth with respect to the resistance metric the behaviour ofthe on-diagonal part of the heat kernel is completely determinedby this rate of volume growth. However, recent results haveshown that for certain random fractal sets, there are globaland local (point-wise) fluctuations in the volume as r 0 andso these uniform results do not apply. Motivated by these examples,we present global and local on-diagonal heat kernel estimateswhen the volume growth is not uniform, and demonstrate thatwhen the volume fluctuations are non-trivial, there will benon-trivial fluctuations of the same order (up to exponents)in the short-time heat kernel asymptotics. We also provide boundsfor the off-diagonal part of the heat kernel. These resultsapply to deterministic and random self-similar fractals, andmetric space dendrites (the topological analogues of graph trees).     

The method of Boltzmann collision integral eigenfunctions in the kinetic theory of long-wave fluctuations

Linearized general equations of long-wave fluctuation kinetics are solved (utilizing eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the linearized Boltzmann collision integral) in the asymptotic region t (_r is the relaxation time). A general form for linearized equations of the fluctuation hydrodynamics is obtained. Effective initial conditions for the fluctuation hydrodynamics equations are derived for the case where fluctuations of any order are absent at the initial moment. The time asymptotics of the one-particle distribution function are found at the evolutionary stage of the fluctuations where the fluctuations of hydrodynamic quantities play an essential role. This is compared with results of the long hydrodynamic tails theory obtained earlier.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 106, No. 3, pp. 469–488, March, 1996.Translated by V.

Efficiency of a DC magnetic field used for braking the flow within a continuous casting mould

The continuous casting technology provides about 90 percent of the world steel production. The application of DC magnetic fields in form of so-called electromagnetic brakes is considered for an effective flow control with substantial capabilities to improve the product quality or to enhance the productivity of the process. The main effect of the DC magnetic field is supposed to result in a uniform reduction of the maximum velocities in the discharging jet from the submerged entry nozzle and to damp violent turbulent fluctuations. However, the electromagnetic braking of such highly turbulent and complex flows is complicated phenomenon and has not been understood fully until now. We present numerical and experimental investigations focusing on the fluid flow in the continuous casting mould under the influence of a transverse magnetic field. Numerical calculations were performed using the software package CFX with an implemented RANS-SST turbulence model. the non-isotropic nature of the MHD turbulence was taken into account by specific modifications of the turbulence model. Corresponding experimental investigations were carried out at the mock-up LIMMCAST at HZDR. The comparison between our numerical calculations and the experimental results display a very well agreement. An important outcome of this study is the feature that the magnetic field does not provide a continuous reduction of the velocity fluctuations at the nozzle port. (© 2011 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Influence of a mean shear on the spectrum of passive scalar fluctuations

The form of the spectrum of passive scalar fluctuations in the inertial–convective range is investigated. In the presence of a mean shear, there exists a critical wave number k_c. At wave numbers greater than k_c, the mean shear does not influence the spectrum of scalar fluctuations and the Obukhov–Corrsin prediction holds. At wave numbers smaller than k_c, the mean shear dominates and the spectrum is less steep. These predictions are based on the study of Lagrangian dynamics of fluid particles and account for the experimental observations. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
