Modified gravity on the brane and dark energy

We analyze the dynamics of an AdS₅ braneworld with matter fields when gravity is allowed to deviate from the Einstein form on the brane. We consider exact five-dimensional warped solutions which are associated with conformal bulk fields of weight –4 and describe on the brane the following three dynamics: those of inhomogeneous dust, of generalized dark radiation, and of homogeneous polytropic dark energy. We show that, with modified gravity on the brane, the existence of such dynamical geometries requires the presence of non-conformal matter fields confined to the brane.     

Toughness mechanism in polypropylene composites: Polypropylene toughened with elastomer and calcium carbonate

Polypropylene (PP) was modified with elastomer or CaCO₃ particles of two different sizes (1 μm and 50 nm) in various volume fractions. The dispersion morphology and mechanical properties of the two systems were investigated as functions of the particle size and volume fraction of the modifier. The brittle‐to‐tough transition occurred when the matrix ligament thickness was less than the critical ligament thickness, which was about 0.1 μm for the PP used here, being independent of the type of modifier. At the same matrix ligament thickness, the improvement of the toughness was obviously higher with the elastomer rather than with CaCO₃, but adding CaCO₃ increased the modulus of PP. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

光学非球面二次曲面常数及顶点曲率的研究

受光学非球面制造过程中诸工艺参数的影响,能否保证非球面顶点曲率及二次曲面常数的精度是一个重要问题。基于二次曲面方程,推导出确定光学非球面二次曲面常数k以及顶点曲率半径r的一组算法,并在对一块口径为760mm×200mm标准非球面反射镜的实际测算中进行拟合,经过优化,拟合精度达到Δk=0.015,Δr=0.341mm,从而有效的控制了光学非球面制造过程中的顶点曲率及二次曲面常数的偏差。

三羟甲基甲胺、季戊四醇及其二元体系固-固相变的变温红外光谱研究

利用傅里叶变温红外光谱仪分别测定了三羟甲基甲胺（TAM）、季戊四醇（PE）及其二元体系变温红外谱。实验表明，多元醇分子中羟基吸收峰随温度升高耐发生位移向高波数移动，此结果既能反映多元醇及其二体系固－固相变的温度区间，又与转变热相对应，从而揭示了多元醇及其二元体系固－固相变贮热的机理。     

Maximum diameter of regular digraphs

We prove that every r-biregular digraph with n vertices has its directed diamter bounded by (3n - r - 3)/(r +1). We show that this bound is tight for directed as well as for undirected graphs. The upper bound remains valid for Eulerian digraphs with minimum outdegree r. © 1929 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Entanglement of Momentum for a Single Photon with a Single Atom

In this talk, the interaction of a single photon injected to a single atom is studied, for which initially the photon is uncorrelated with the atom. The spontaneous emitted photon will then evolve to be entangled with the atom on their continuous kinetic variables （momentum） in the process of resonant scattering. We find the relations between the entanglement and their physical control parameters （such as the linewidth of the injected photon wave packet, and that of the atomic wave packet, etc. ）, which indicates that high entanglement can be reached by broadening the scale of the atomic wave or squeezing the linewidth of the incident single-photon pulse.     

椭圆型问题一类广义差分法的L~2模误差估计

1.引 言 广义差分法作为处理偏微分方程的离散技术,能够保持质量,动量,能量等物理量的守恒.广义差分法（有些文献称为box method[3];finite volume element method[4],[5],[6]）利用在对偶剖分体积单元积分原始方程,并将近似解限制于某一有限元空间而得到离散方程.因此,它在局部区域保持了原始方程的物理守恒性和其他重要特性.从而被广泛地应用于数值求解数学物理方程,特别是计算流体力学和热传导问题[11]. 对广义差分法的研究已有许多文献,专著[10]有详细的介绍.早期的工作主要考虑标准的重心对偶剖分.近年来Cai et,al[4],[5],[6],在某些假定下对较一般的对偶剖分给出了能量模误差估计,Huang and Xi[9]去掉了文献[6]中的这些限制.Chou,Li[8]和Li,
