槽道尺寸对平板式环路热管性能的影响

设计开发了一套平板式环路热管,比较了2 mm×1.5 mm和1 mm×1 mm(高×宽)两种蒸气槽道环路热管在不同倾角和充液率下的性能。结果发现,两种蒸气槽道在相同条件下最低启动功率相同,但前者启动时间和过渡时间较后者短。稳定运行时,除充液率为55%且功率小于150 W外,其他情况下前者运行温度比后者低。变工况运行时,随功率的增大,温度后者变化很大,而前者变化较小,前者自适应能力强。对于传热特性,两种槽道环路热管的热阻都随功率的增大而逐渐减小,最后趋于平稳;对水平、充液率为55%的系统,功率较小时前者热阻较大,功率增大后,其值大幅减小,215W时仅为0.12℃/W。     

A lattice scenario for a proton radiography accelerator

A proton radiography system is an accelerator-based facility.Especially high-energy proton radiography is an advanced hydrodynamics diagnostic tool,and it is the trend of radiography technology development.In this paper,a 20 GeV accelerator complex scenario,including a 35 MeV linac,a 1 GeV booster and a 20 GeV main ring,is introduced.The overall physics design of the proton radiography accelerator is described,including the design of each part of the accelerator and the choice of the main parameters.     

Coherent Scattering of Light by Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Tight Confinement

We have observed strong scattering of a probe light by dilute Bose-Einstein condensate （BEC） ^87Rb gas in a tight magnetic trap. The scattering light forms fringes at the image plane. It is found that we can infer the real size of the condensation and the number of the atoms by modelling the imaging system. We present a quantitative calculation of light scattering by the condensed atoms. The calculation shows that the experimental results agree well with the prediction of the generalized diffraction theory, and thus we can directly observe the phase transition of BEC in a tight trap.     

非线性物理破解神经编码机制

信息在神经系统中以脉冲点序列的形式传输和处理，神经系统如何通过脉冲点序列对所表达的信息进行编码，一直是一个谜．人们曾普遍认为，神经可能通过发放率（单位时间发放脉冲出现的次数）对信息编码，也有人猜测，神经可通过脉冲点序列的时序编码．由于神经发放的随机性，这就使得任何编码机制都面临着被表达信息的确定性与表达该信息的信号的随机性的矛盾．通过神经非线性随机动力学模型，文章作者发现，神经点序列的发放率对点序列的时序信息传输的影响，揭示了神经点序列时序信息在神经非线性传输中的随机共振特征．由此预期，并进一步通过听觉心理物理实验观察到，在一定条件下噪声对听觉的增强作用．从而通过非线性物理揭示了听觉时序编码机制的存在以及在时序编码中随机性噪声的积极作用．     

Quantum Key Distribution Network Based on Differential Phase Shift

Using a series of quantum correlated photon pairs, we propose a theoretical scheme for any-to-any multi-user quantum key distribution network based on differential phase shift. The differential phase shift and the different detection time slots ensure the security of our scheme against eavesdropping. We discuss the security under the intercept-resend attack and the source replacement attack.     

Entanglement in the Ground State of an Isotropic Three-Qubit Transverse XY Chain with Energy Current

The ground state entanglement in an isotropic three-qubit transverse XY chain with energy current is analysed. A quantum phase transition from a no-energy-current phase to energy-current phase is found when the magnetic field changes. It has also been found that the ground state changes in company with the quantum phase transition.     

Suprathreshold Stochastic Resonance in a Single Comparator

Stochastic resonance usually appears when stimulus is too weak to overcome barriers in a nonlinear system. Unusually, we demonstrate that in a simple competitor as a prototype model, stochastic resonance can still occur when the stimulus is predominantly suprathreshold. This result provides new knowledge for understanding of mechanism underlying information process in biological systems and aIso finds appfications in signal processing.     

Ordered InAs Quantum Dots with Controllable Periods Grown on Stripe-Patterned GaAs Substrates

GaAs （001） substrates are patterned by electron beam lithography and wet chemical etching to control the nucleation of lnAs quantum dots （QDs）. InAs dots are grown on the stripe-patterned substrates by solid source molecular beam epitaxy. A thick buffer layer is deposited on the strip pattern before the deposition of InAs. To enhance the surface diffusion length of the In atoms, InAs is deposited with low growth rate and low As pressure. The AFM images show that distinct one-dimensionally ordered InAs QDs with homogeneous size distribution are created, and the QDs preferentiMly nucleate along the trench. With the increasing amount of deposited InAs and the spacing of the trenches, a number of QDs are formed beside the trenches. The distribution of additional QDs is long-range ordered, always along the trenchs rather than across the spacing regions.
