Ultra-high energy cosmic rays threshold in Randers-Finsler space

Kinematics in Finsler space is used to study the propagation of ultra high energy cosmic rays particles through the cosmic microwave background radiation. We find that the GZK threshold is lifted dramatically in Randers-Finsler space. A tiny deformation of spacetime from Minkowskian to Finslerian allows more ultra-high energy cosmic rays particles to arrive at the earth. It is suggested that the lower bound of particle mass is related with the negative second invariant speed in Randers-Finsler space.     

Long-distance quantum teleportation assisted with free-space entanglement distribution

Faithful long-distance quantum teleportation necessitates prior entanglement distribution between two communicated locations. The particle carrying on the unknown quantum information is then combined with one particle of the entangled states for Bell-state measurements, which leads to a transfer of the original quantum information onto the other particle of the entangled states. However in most of the implemented teleportation experiments nowadays, the Bell-state measurements are performed even before successful distribution of entanglement. This leads to an instant collapse of the quantum state for the transmitted particle, which is actually a single-particle transmission thereafter. Thus the true distance for quantum teleportation is, in fact, only in a level of meters. In the present experiment we design a novel scheme which has overcome this limit by utilizing fiber as quantum memory. A complete quantum teleportation is achieved upon successful entanglement distribution over 967 meters in public free space. Active feed-forward control techniques are developed for real-time transfer of quantum information. The overall experimental fidelities for teleported states are better than 89.6%, which signify high-quality teleportation.     

Subgroups of index 4 of the 2-dimensional space groups

There are 281 subgroups of index 4 for the 17 types of 2-dimension space groups: p1:7, p2:31, pm:19, pg:7, cm:11, p2mm:67, p2mg:23, p2gg:11, c2mm:31, p4:11, p4mm:31, p4gm:11, p3:4, p3m1:4, p31m:4, p6:4, p6mm:5. Every subgroup has been identified by its conventional cell disposition with respect to the conventional cell of the starting group. These subgroups may be arranged in 96 automorphism classes and 184 conjugation classes according to their starting groups.     

Alternative difference analysis scheme combining R‐space EXAFS fit with global optimization XANES fit for X‐ray transient absorption spectroscopy

Time‐resolved X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (TR‐XAS), based on the laser‐pump/X‐ray‐probe method, is powerful in capturing the change of the geometrical and electronic structure of the absorbing atom upon excitation. TR‐XAS data analysis is generally performed on the laser‐on minus laser‐off difference spectrum. Here, a new analysis scheme is presented for the TR‐XAS difference fitting in both the extended X‐ray absorption fine‐structure (EXAFS) and the X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) regions. R‐space EXAFS difference fitting could quickly provide the main quantitative structure change of the first shell. The XANES fitting part introduces a global non‐derivative optimization algorithm and optimizes the local structure change in a flexible way where both the core XAS calculation package and the search method in the fitting shell are changeable. The scheme was applied to the TR‐XAS difference analysis of Fe(phen)₃ spin crossover complex and yielded reliable distance change and excitation population.

Temperature‐dependent electroluminescence intensity in green and blue (In,Ga)N multiple‐quantum‐well diodes

The electroluminescence (EL) intensity has been investigated of green and blue (In,Ga)N multiple‐quantum‐well diodes grown on c ‐plane sapphire over a wide temperature range and as a function of current between 0.01 mA and 10 mA. The EL intensity of the green diode with p‐(Al,Ga)N electron blocking layer does not show low‐temperature quenching, especially at low injection levels, previously observed for the blue (In,Ga)N quantum‐well diodes. This finding rules out possi‐ bilities that the freeze‐out of holes at deep Mg acceptor levels and the failure of hole injections through the p‐(Al,Ga)N layer are directly responsible for the EL quenching at temperatures below 100 K. Variations of the EL efficiency with current level suggest that capture/escape efficiencies of injected carriers by the wells play an important role for the determination of EL external quantum efficiency.

ADI土壤水分反演方法

土壤水分是影响植被、土壤和大气之间能量和水分循环的重要因素,及时准确获取土壤湿度信息有利于提高作物估产精度和改善田间管理措施。本文基于红光与近红外光谱特征空间(NIR-RED)发展了一种新型土壤水分遥感监测模型ADI(angle dryness index),提高了可见光与近红外波段监测土壤水分的精度。经过研究表明,在红光与近红外(NIR-RED)特征空间中,存在一个中间角度变量θ,利用光谱反射率与土壤水分之间的经验关系式模型以及混合像元分解公式证明该变量能够表征土壤湿度情况,而不受植被覆盖度的影响,因此利用该原理构建了ADI方法。最后利用两组遥感数据(分别为TM5与MODIS产品数据)以及对应的地面观测数据进行验证,结果表明计算值与实测值均具有较高的一致性,R2分别达到0.74与0.64。同时,将MPDI的计算结果与实测值进行了比较,两组数据的R2均小于0.60,表明ADI方法的计算精度高于MPDI。在MPDI的计算过程中用到了植被覆盖度,这可能是引起计算结果误差的主要因素。此外,MPDI的计算结果表征土壤湿度的相对值,而ADI则能定量的获取土壤水分含量。MODIS像元除了具有植被与土壤两个端元,还有其他类型端元的概率高于TM数据,因而MODIS数据的计算精度低于TM。因此,ADI是一种简单可行且具有较大应用前景的土壤水分反演方法,适合于推广应用。
