Analysis of the alterations in porosity features of some natural stones due to thermal effect

Three types of commercially available carbonate rocks were used in the study to determine the effect of thermal treatment in the range from 100 °C to 500 °C on porosity features in terms of two different approaches such as pore shape factor and quality index values. The ratio of the ultrasonic velocity measurements before and after water saturation was used to differentiate porosity of pores from porosity of cracks under varying temperatures. It was found that, pores in Burdur Beige and Usak White are in the form of cracks, which are situated through inner structure. On the other hand, pores in Patara Limestone are in the form of porosity with lower pore shape factor values. Quality index calculation is another approach based on the comparison of the measured and theoretical ultrasonic velocity values. When the rocks were subjected to higher temperatures, internal stress was developed, crack lengths and numbers were increased and finally the higher pore shape factor and lower quality index values were obtained. This situation was proven by the higher water absorption values for all the stone types with the higher pore shape factor and lower quality index values depend on the noticeable increase in effective porosity values.     

Magnetic properties of two-dimensional charged spin-1 Bose gases

Within the mean-field theory, we investigate the magnetic properties of a charged spin-1 Bose gas in two dimensions. In this system the diamagnetism competes with paramagnetism, where the Landé factor g   is introduced to describe the strength of the paramagnetic effect. The system presents a crossover from diamagnetism to paramagnetism with the increasing of the Landé factor. _gc$g_c$ denotes the critical value of the Landé factor. We get the same value of _gc$g_c$ both in the low temperature and strong magnetic field limit. Our results also show that in very weak magnetic field no condensation happens in the two-dimensional charged spin-1 Bose gas.

Detection of B-FSK signals using schmidt trigger

Possibility to record B-FSK signals with use of stochastic resonance is studied. A Schmidt trigger is employed as bistable stochastic resonator. A digital model of the detector is proposed and quantitative results are obtained by means of simulations. Dependence of the probability of correctly detected bits on the added noise power and on the low-pass filter cutoff frequency is studied. Also the stability of the detector with respect to channel-introduced phase shifts is revealed.     

The Kirkwood correlation factor of dense methanol as a function of temperature and pressure under isochoric conditions and its statistical mechanical treatment

Experimental data of dielectric susceptibilities of methanol available in the literature over a wide range of temperature and pressure have been used for constructing a state function of the Kirkwood correlation factor g _K of methanol applicable in the homogeneous fluid region between 298 and 580?K and up to 350?MPa. Results of three isochores at 786.32, 820 and 850 kg m^?3 of this state function have been compared with predictions made by a statistical mechanical theory developed in previous work. The theory is based on an association model of alcohols accounting for the correlation of effective dipole moments of chains of all length as well as ringlike cluster formations. Most of the parameters such as association constants and association enthalpies have been obtained from quantum mechanical ab initio calculations of methanol clusters up to six members, reducing the numbers of adjustable parameters to three association constants and an averaged value of the angle between dipoles. The theory which has turned out to provide excellent results for alcohol + hydrocarbon and alcohol +?CCl₄ liquid mixtures at ambient pressure is also able to predict isochoric values of pure methanol up to a pressure of 350?MPa and temperatures of 570?K without adjusting further parameters in satisfying agreement with experimental data.

Measuring fluorescence to track a quantum emitter's state: a theory review

We review the continuous monitoring of a qubit through its spontaneous emission, at an introductory level. Contemporary experiments have been able to collect the fluorescence of an artificial atom in a cavity and transmission line, and then make measurements of that emission to obtain diffusive quantum trajectories in the qubit's state. We give a straightforward theoretical overview of such scenarios, using a framework based on Kraus operators derived from a Bayesian update concept; we apply this flexible framework across common types of measurements including photodetection, homodyne, and heterodyne monitoring and illustrate its equivalence to the stochastic master equation formalism throughout. Special emphasis is given to homodyne (phase-sensitive) monitoring of fluorescence. The examples we develop are used to illustrate basic methods in quantum trajectories, but also to introduce some more advanced topics of contemporary interest, including the arrow of time in quantum measurement, and trajectories following optimal measurement records derived from a variational principle. The derivations we perform lead directly from the development of a simple model to an understanding of recent experimental results.
