Static observables of relativistic three-fermion systems with instantaneous interactions

We show that static properties like the charge radius and the magnetic moment of relativistic three-fermion bound states with instantaneous interactions can be formulated as expectation values with respect to intrinsically defined wave functions. The resulting operators can be given a natural physical interpretation in accordance with relativistic covariance. We also indicate how the formalism may be generalized to arbitrary moments. The method is applied to the computation of static baryon properties with numerical results for the nucleon charge radii and the baryon octet magnetic moments. In addition, we make predictions for the magnetic moments of some selected nucleon resonances and discuss the decomposition of the nucleon magnetic moments in contributions of spin and angular momentum, as well as the evolution of these contributions with decreasing quark mass.     

Deformed photon-added entangled squeezed vacuum and one-photon states: Entanglement,polarization, and nonclassical properties

In this paper, after a brief review on the entangled squeezed states, we produce a new class of the continuous-variabletype entangled states, namely, deformed photon-added entangled squeezed states. These states are obtained via the iterated action of the f-deformed creation operator A = f(n)aon the entangled squeezed states. In the continuation, by studying the criteria such as the degree of entanglement, quantum polarization as well as sub-Poissonian photon statistics, the twomode correlation function, one-mode and two-mode squeezing, we investigate the nonclassical behaviors of the introduced states in detail by choosing a particular f-deformation function. It is revealed that the above-mentioned physical properties can be affected and so may be tuned by justifying the excitation number, after choosing a nonlinearity function. Finally, to generate the introduced states, we propose a theoretical scheme using the nonlinear Jaynes–Cummings model.     

Phase transition and optoelectronic properties of MgH2

In this article, structural and electronic properties of MgH₂ have been studied. The aim behind this study was to find out the ground state crystal structure of MgH₂. For the purpose, density functional theory (DFT)-based full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) calculations have been performed in three different space groups: P4₂/mnm (α-MgH₂), Pa3 (β-MgH₂) and Pbcn (γ-MgH₂). It has been found that the ground state structure of MgH₂ is α-MgH₂. The present study shows that α-MgH₂ transforms into γ-MgH₂ at a pressure of 0.41 GPa. After further increase in pressure, γ-MgH₂ transforms into β-MgH₂ at a pressure of 3.67 GPa. The obtained results are in good agreement with previously reported experimental data. In all the studied phases, the behavior of MgH₂ is insulating and its optical conductivity is around 6.0 eV. The α-MgH₂ and γ-MgH₂ are anisotropic materials while β-MgH₂ is isotropic in nature.     

Topological nature of in‐gap bound states in disordered large‐gap monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides

We propose a physical model based on disordered (a hole punched inside a material) monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) to demonstrate a large‐gap quantum valley Hall insulator. We find an emergence of bound states lying inside the bulk gap of the TMDs. They are strongly affected by spin–valley coupling, rest‐ and kinetic‐mass terms and the hole size. In addition, in the whole range of the hole size, at least two in‐gap bound states with opposite angular momentum, circulating around the edge of the hole, exist.Their topological insulator (TI) feature is analyzed by the Chern number, characterized by spacial distribution of their probabilities and confirmed by energy dispersion curves (energy vs. angular momentum). It not only sheds light on overcoming low‐temperature operating limitation of existing narrow‐gap TIs, but also opens an opportunity to realize valley‐ and spin‐qubits.

Bound states of Dirac fermions in monolayer gapped graphene in the presence of local perturbations

In graphene,conductance electrons behave as massless relativistic particles and obey an analogue of the Dirac equation in two dimensions with a chiral nature.For this reason,the bounding of electrons in graphene in the form of geometries of quantum dots is impossible.In gapless graphene,due to its unique electronic band structure,there is a minimal conductivity at Dirac points,that is,in the limit of zero doping.This creates a problem for using such a highly motivated new material in electronic devices.One of the ways to overcome this problem is the creation of a band gap in the graphene band structure,which is made by inversion symmetry breaking(symmetry of sublattices).We investigate the confined states of the massless Dirac fermions in an impured graphene by the short-range perturbations for "local chemical potential" and "local gap".The calculated energy spectrum exhibits quite different features with and without the perturbations.A characteristic equation for bound states(BSs) has been obtained.It is surprisingly found that the relation between the radial functions of sublattices wave functions,i.e.,f_m~+(r),g_m~+(r),and f_m~-(r),g_m~-(r),can be established by SO(2) group.     

Quantum Zeno dynamics in atoms and cavities

Quantum Zeno Dynamics restricts the evolution of a system in a tailorable subspace of the Hilbert space by repeated measurements of a proper observable. This restricted dynamics can be counterintuitive and lead to the generation of interesting nonclassical states. We describe an experiment implementing the Zeno dynamics in an atomic Rydberg level manifold, and we propose an implementation in the cavity quantum electrodynamics context. Both systems open promising perspectives for quantum-enabled metrology and decoherence studies.     

双势垒磁性隧道结中量子阱共振隧穿效应的第一性原理理论

磁性隧道结材料中自旋相关的量子阱态所导致的共振隧穿现象具有很重要的研究和应用价值，文章介绍了最近在Fe（001）／MgO／Fe／MgO／Fe双势垒磁性隧道结中存在的量子阱共振隧穿效应的理论研究工作，通过量子阱态的第一性原理的计算以及结合对中间Fe薄膜孤岛结构所导致Coulomb阻塞效应的分析，证实了最近Nozaki等人（Nozaki T et al．Phys．Rev．Lett．，2006，96：027208）实验中得到的振荡效应确实来源于中间Fe层多数自旋电子在Г点处形成的△1对称性的量子阱态．Coulomb阻塞效应的存在正是导致实验中低温下量子阱共振隧穿效应不够明显的主要原因．     

Meson-baryon s-wave resonances with strangeness -3

Starting from a consistent SU(6) extension of the Weinberg-Tomozawa (WT) meson-baryon chiral Lagrangian ( Phys. Rev. D 74, 034025 (2006)), we study the s-wave meson-baryon resonances in the strangeness S = - 3 and negative-parity sectors. Those resonances are generated by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation with the WT interaction used as kernel. The considered mesons are those of the 35-SU(6)-plet, which includes the pseudoscalar (PS) octet of pions and the vector (V) nonet of the rho-meson. For baryons we consider the 56-SU(6)-plet, made of the 1/2⁺ octet of the nucleon and the 3/2⁺ decuplet of the Delta. Quantum numbers I(J ^P) = 0(3/2^-) are suggested for the experimental resonances Ω ^*(2250)^- and Ω ^*(2380)^-. Among other, resonances with I = 1 are found, which minimal quark content is sssˉl', being s the strange quark and l, l' any of the the light up or down quarks. A clear signal for such a pentaquark would be a baryonic resonance with strangeness -3 and electric charge -2 or 0, in proton charge units. We suggest looking for K ^- Ξ ^- resonances with masses around 2100 and 2240MeV in the sector 1(1/2^-), and for π ^± Ω ^- and K ^- Ξ ^*- resonances with masses around 2260MeV in the sector 1(3/2^-).     

基于经典小波变换的布里渊光时域反射计光信号处理

布里渊光时域反射计结构的布里渊散射分布式光纤传感器检测的是自发散射光,信号非常微弱,而且频带在几十兆赫兹以上,难以应用普通相干解调方法。针对传感散射光信号特点,提出基于经典(Morlet)小波变换的光相干检测方法。首先采用微波电光调制产生频移参考光和自发布里渊散射光进行相干检测,再应用经典小波变换进行散射光信号的幅度解调,得到信噪比改善的布里渊散射传感光信号。给出了数值模拟和实验数据处理结果,表明经典小波变换能较好地处理布里渊光时域反射计检测信号。并和基于希尔伯特(Hilbert)变换的传感信号处理方法进行了对比,发现此方法优于基于希尔伯特变换的信号处理。
