Molecular dynamics calculations of the hard-sphere equation of state

The equation of state of the hard-sphere fluid is studied by a Monte Carlomolecular dynamics method for volumes ranging from 25V ₀ to 1.6V ₀ , whereV ₀ is the close-packed volume, and for system sizes from 108 to 4000 particles. TheN dependence of the equation of state is compared to the theoretical dependence given by Salsburg for theNPT ensemble, after correction for the ensemble difference, in order to obtain estimates for the thermodynamic limit. The observed values of the pressure are compared with both the [3/2] and the [2/3] Padé approximants to the virial series, using Kratky's value for the fifth virial coefficientB ₅ and choosingB ₆ andB ₇, to obtain a least-squares fit. The resulting values ofB ₆ andB ₇ lie within the uncertainties of the Ree-Hoover-Kratky Monte Carlo estimates for these virial coefficients. The values ofB ₈,B ₉, andB ₁₀ predicted by our optimal [3/2] approximant are also reported. Finally, the Monte Carlo-molecular dynamics equation of state is compared with a number of analytic expressions for the hard-sphere equation of state.Work supported by the Office of Basic Energy Sciences, U.S. Department of Energy.     

Decoherence of photon-subtracted squeezed vacuum state in dissipative channel

This paper investigates the decoherence of photo-subtracted squeezed vacuum state (PSSVS) in dissipative channel by describing its statistical properties with time evolution such as Wigner function,Husimi function,and tomogram.It first calculates the normalization factor of PSSVS related to Legendre polynomial.After deriving the normally ordered density operator of PSSVS in dissipative channel,one obtains the explicit analytical expressions of time evolution of PSSVS’s statistical distribution function.It finds that these statistical distributions loss their non-Gaussian nature and become Gaussian at last in the dissipative environment as expected.

 由等温体积弹性模量的定义及其与压强关系的假设出发,导出了一个新的适用于高压下碱卤晶体的三参量等温状态方程。计算了室温下NaCl晶体在0～30 GPa压强范围内、CsCl晶体在0～40 GPa压强范围内的相对体积以及NaCl晶体在0～30 GPa压强范围内的等温体积弹性模量,计算结果与实验值一致。对等温体积弹性模量及其对压强的一阶、二阶导数与压强的关系进行了讨论,指出压强趋于无穷大时的等温体积弹性模量是常数。     

4种等温物态方程适用性的比较研究

 通过分析现有文献,认为4种两参数的物态方程在高压物理研究中较为流行,它们是Vinet、Baonza、Morse和Born-Meyer（BM）方程。将这4种方程用于拟合50种材料的实验压缩数据,得出了零压下压缩模量及其一阶压力导数的优化取值,并计算了4种方程的平均压力误差。结果表明,Morse方程的精度最高,对50种材料的平均拟合误差为0.557 6%;BM方程次之,平均误差为0.615 1%;Vinet和Baonza方程的误差大一些,分别为0.788 9%和0.833 3%。对8种典型材料计算了压力误差随压强变化的曲线,所得结果与平均误差的趋势一致,也是Morse方程的精度最高。在宽广压力范围的高压物态方程研究中,推荐使用Morse方程。

Non-classicality of photon added coherent and thermal radiations

Production and analysis of non-Gaussian radiation fields has evinced a lot of attention recently. Simplest way of generating such non-Gaussians is through adding (subtracting) photons to Gaussian fields. Interestingly, when photons are added to classical Gaussian fields, the resulting states exhibit non-classicality. Two important classical Gaussian radiation fields are coherent and thermal states. Here, we study the non-classical features of such states when photons are added to them. Non-classicality of these states shows up in the negativity of the Wigner function. We also work out the entanglement potential, a recently proposed measure of non-classicality for these states. Our analysis reveals that photon added coherent states are non-classical for all seed beam intensities; their non-classicality increases with the addition of more number of photons. Thermal state exhibits non-classicality at all temperatures, when a photon is added; lower the temperature, higher is their non-classicality.     

Hadron production near threshold

Final state interaction effects inpp→ pΛK ⁺ andpd →³Heη reactions are explored near threshold to study the sensitivity of the cross-sections to thepΛ potential and theηN scattering matrix. The final state scattering wave functions between Λ andp andη and³He are described rigorously. The Λ production is described by the exchange of one pion and aK-meson between two protons in the incident channel. Theη production is described by a two-step model, where in the first step a pion is produced. This pion then produces anη by interacting with another nucleon     

Up to 30 mW of broadly tunable CW green-to-orange light, based on sum-frequency mixing of Cr:forsterite and Nd:YVO4 lasers

Efficient generation of continuous-wave (CW) tunable light in the yellow region is reported. The method is based on sum-frequency mixing of a tunable Cr⁴⁺:forsterite laser with a Nd:YVO₄ laser. A periodically poled lithium niobate crystal was placed intra-cavity in a Nd:YVO₄ laser, and the Cr⁴⁺:forsterite laser was single-passed through the non-linear media. With this setup, it was possible to generate up to 3 mW of yellow light smoothly tunable from 573 to 587 nm. This is the highest output demonstrated to date for a tunable diode pumped solid-state CW laser in this wavelength region. The ways to improve the efficiency further are discussed.
