Level shift operators for open quantum systems

Level shift operators describe the second-order displacement of eigenvalues under perturbation. They play a central role in resonance theory and ergodic theory of open quantum systems at positive temperatures. We exhibit intrinsic properties of level shift operators, properties which stem from the structure of open quantum systems at positive temperatures and which are common to all such systems. They determine the geometry of resonances bifurcating from eigenvalues of positive temperature Hamiltonians and they relate the Gibbs state, the kernel of level shift operators, and zero energy resonances. We show that degeneracy of energy levels of the small part of the open quantum system causes the Fermi Golden Rule Condition to be violated and we analyze ergodic properties of such systems.     

Ca+-Pyridine络合物的光解反应

使用反射式飞行时间质谱仪,得到 Ca~ -pyridine 络合物在412～ 690nm 的光解谱.从谱图可见,反应有两个通道,一个是 Ca~ 与 pyridine 分子解离开的非反应淬灭过程,这个通道在所有波段都有,且占优势；生成产物 Ca~ NH_2的通道不仅所占比例小,且在530～590nm 波段关闭. 作为激光波长函数的 Action spectrum 显示出明显的峰,对应于络合物的跃迁.反应的分支比也支持了光解谱图的结论.     

Complex point sources in probe-corrected cylindrical near-field scanning

A probe-corrected theory based on complex point sources is presented for computing the acoustic field of an arbitrary finite source from measurements of the near field on a cylindrical scanning surface. The complex point sources are used both as basis functions for the expansion of the field outside the scan cylinder and for the representation of the probe. The resulting probe-corrected formulas are considerably simpler than the standard probe-corrected formulas based on cylindrical waves. The new formulation makes simulations of near-field scanning systems much less computationally intensive than simulations based on standard theory. The complex point-source theory is validated through numerical examples involving a baffled circular piston transducer probe.     

Assembly and Photophysics of Ternary Luminescent Lanthanide Molecular Complex Systems

In this paper, according to the molecular fragment principle, a series of eight ternary luminescent lanthanide complex systems were assembled, and whose compositions were determined with elemental analysis and infrared spectrum: Ln(MA)₃(L)·H₂O, where Ln = Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy; HMA = α‐methylacrylic acid; L = 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen), 2,2′‐bipyridine (bipy). The photophysical properties of these functional molecular systems were studied with ultraviolet‐visible absorption spectrum, and fluorescence excitation and emission spectrum. It was found that the heterocylic compounds (phen and bipy) act as the main energy donor and luminescence sensitizer for their suitable energy match and effective energy transfer to the emission energy level of Ln³⁺ ions. MMA ligand was only used as the terminal structural ligand to influence the luminescence. Especially terbium complex systems show the strongest luminescence for the optimum energy match and transfer between phen (bipy) and Tb³⁺ ion.     

Boundaries for algebras of holomorphic functions

Let A_u(B_G) be the Banach algebra of all complex valued functions defined on the closed unit ball B_G of a complex Banach space G which are uniformly continuous on B_G and holomorphic in the interior of B_G, endowed with the sup norm. A characterization of the boundaries for A_u(B_G) is given in case G belongs to a class of Banach spaces that includes the pre-dual of a Lorentz sequence space studied by Gowers in Israel J. Math. 69 (1990) 129-151. The non-existence of the Shilov boundary for A_u(B_G) is also proved.     

Hybrid systems: Modelling and analysis using emergent dynamics

In this paper, we discuss modelling and analysis of hybrid systems with physical interaction dynamics. Such systems are typically considered complex and they are modelled using abstractions. Abstractions may, however, unintentionally exclude critical details, leading to partial or false results. Therefore, we study here use of a particle system in modelling and analysis. The novelty of the particle system is that it is designed to reveal interaction dynamics as emergent dynamics; thus, supporting analysis of complex and intricate interaction dynamics with acceptable modelling effort. As the main contribution, we formalize the particle system, and use it to model and analyze hybrid systems, both mechanical and biological, with nontrivial interaction dynamics.     

复流形局部q-凸楔形上带权的同伦公式

本文得到复流形局部q-凸楔形上(r,s)型微分形式的带权的同伦公式和(r,s)型的方程的带权的连续解,并给出(r,s)型微分形式的不含边界积分的新的带权的同伦公式和(r,s)型的方程的新的带权的连续解.这些新的带权公式尤其适用于具有非光滑边界的局部q-凸楔形,这时不但可以避免边界积分的复杂估计,而且积分密度也不必在边界有定义,只要在区域上有定义就行.其次,引进权因子,带权的积分公式在应用上(比如在函数的插值方面)具有更大的灵活性.

Solid state phase equilibria in the Gd-Si-B system at 1270 K

Solid state phase equilibria in the ternary Gd-Si-B phase diagram have been proposed at 1270 K using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. Prior to this work, the binary systems Gd-B, Gd-Si and Si-B have also been reinvestigated. The main characteristic of the ternary diagram is the occurrence of two new ternary compounds Gd₅Si₂B₈ and Gd₅Si₃B_0.64. The former crystallizes in tetragonal symmetry, space group P4/mbm with unit cell parameters a=7.2665(3), c=8.2229(7) Å, the second one presents hexagonal symmetry, space group P6₃/mcm with unit cell parameters a=8.5080(4),c=6.4141(2) Å. The X-ray structures of the two structurally related phases Gd₅Si₃B_0.64 and host binary Gd₅Si₃ have been refined from three-dimensional single-crystal intensity data to the final R values of 0.036 (R_w=0.046) and 0.046 (R_w=0.055) for 457 and 401 reflections, respectively with [F>4σ(F)]. Both structures exhibit the Mn₅Si₃-type structure, with in addition for Gd₅Si₃B_0.64 a partial occupancy by boron of the normally vacant interstitial site at the center of the Gd₆ octahedron, which corresponds to the origin of the unit cell. Bonding between the interstitial boron atoms and the gadolinium ones forming the Gd₆B polyhedra is indicated by the decrease in the corresponding Gd-Gd distances and consequently in the unit cell volume. Finally, the Gd-Si-B phase diagram is compared with the previously reported Er-Si-B, at 1070 K.
