290 AMeV 12C诱发乳胶核反应末态粒子多重数关联

对290 AMeV 12C诱发乳胶核反应末态粒子间的多重数关联进行了研究。实验结果表明:黑径迹粒子、灰径迹粒子、重电离粒子多重数之间存在较强的关联,而且黑径迹粒子和重电离粒子多重数有饱和的趋势,这些特征与高能区实验结果一致;簇射粒子与其他粒子间的关联性较弱,这一特征与高能区实验结果不同,主要归因于弹核能量较低、簇射粒子产额较小;黑径迹粒子、灰径迹粒子在前后半球的平均多重数随靶核的增大而增加;实验结果可用基于碰撞几何的旁观体-反应体模型及级联蒸发模型来解释。We have investigated the multiplicity correlation of particles produced in 12C-emulsion interactions at 290 AMeV. It is found that there is a strong correlation between black track particle, grey track particle and heavily ionized track particle, and finally black track particles and heavily ionized track particles tend to saturation, which is the same as the experimental results observed at high energies. The multiplicity correlation between shower particle and other particles is weaker, which is different from the experimental results observed at high energies. This discriminating character can be explained by the lower energy of projectile. The productivity of shower particle is lower at intermediate energies compared to that at high energies. The forward-backward averaged multiplicity of black track particle and grey track particle increases with the increasing target size.     

The 650-nm variable optical attenuator based on polymer/silica hybrid waveguide

Visible light variable optical attenuators(VOA) are essential devices in the application of channel power regulation and equalization in wavelength-division multiplexing cross-connect nodes in plastic optical fiber(POF) transmission systems.In this paper, a polymer/silica hybrid waveguide thermo–optic attenuator based on multimode interference(MMI) coupler is designed and fabricated to operate at 650 nm. The single-mode transmission condition, MMI coupler, and transition taper dimensions are optimized through the beam propagation method. Thermal analysis based on material properties provides the optimized heater placement angle. The fabricated VOA presents an attenuation of 26.5 dB with a 21-mW electrical input power at 650 nm. The rise time and fall time are 51.99 and 192 μs, respectively. The time–stability measurement results prove its working reliability.

Membrane tube pearling induced by a coupling of osmotic pressure and nanoparticle adhesion

ABSTRACT

In this work, a coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulation method that belongs to the class of dissipative particle dynamics scheme with implicit solvent was used to indicate that adsorption of nanoparticles (NPs) inside a lipid membrane tube and pressure difference across the membrane, e.g. osmotic pressure, cooperatively induce membrane tube pearling. We demonstrate that NP adsorption and aggregation initiate the shape transformation of the lipid tube, and pressure difference provides a driving force for pearling transition. Depending on the dynamic coupling of tube shape transition and NP aggregation in the interior of the tube, different shape transitions via four kinds of pearling pathways are recognised, including pearls on a string (i.e. vesicles are interconnected via either a chain or double-chain of NPs) and tube-to-vesicle transition that is dominated kinetically either by NP-membrane attraction or by pressure difference. Considering the fact that biological membranes are semipermeable and many proteins interact with the membranes, these findings not only provide a mechanism of membrane tube pearling but also demonstrate the importance of osmotic pressure and protein–membrane interaction for many cell activities related to shape transitions of biomembrane.     

Brownian and advective dynamics in microflow studied by coherent X‐ray scattering experiments

Combining microfluidics with coherent X‐ray illumination offers the possibility to not only measure the structure but also the dynamics of flowing samples in a single‐scattering experiment. Here, the power of this combination is demonstrated by studying the advective and Brownian dynamics of colloidal suspensions in microflow of different geometries. Using an experimental setup with a fast two‐dimensional detector and performing X‐ray correlation spectroscopy by calculating two‐dimensional maps of the intensity auto‐correlation functions, it was possible to evaluate the sample structure and furthermore to characterize the detailed flow behavior, including flow geometry, main flow directions, advective flow velocities and diffusive dynamics. By scanning a microfocused X‐ray beam over a microfluidic device, the anisotropic auto‐correlation functions of driven colloidal suspensions in straight, curved and constricted microchannels were mapped with the spatial resolution of the X‐ray beam. This method has not only a huge potential for studying flow patterns in complex fluids but also to generally characterize anisotropic dynamics in materials.

Single photon and nonlocality

In a paper by Home and Agarwal [1], it is claimed that quantum nonlocality can be revealed in a simple interferometry experiment using only single particles. A critical analysis of the concept of hidden variable used by the authors of [1] shows that the reasoning is not correct.      

Stabilizing the intensity of a wave amplified by a beam of particles

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave interacting self-consistently with a beam of charged particles as in a free electron laser, displays large oscillations due to an aggregate of particles, called the macro-particle. In this article, we propose a strategy to stabilize the intensity by re-shaping the macro-particle. This strategy involves the study of the linear stability (using the residue method) of selected periodic orbits of a mean-field model. As parameters of an additional perturbation are varied, bifurcations occur in the system which have drastic effect on the modification of the self-consistent dynamics, and in particular, of the macro-particle. We show how to obtain an appropriate tuning of the parameters which is able to strongly decrease the oscillations of the intensity without reducing its mean-value.
