Single-shot carrier-envelope-phase measurement in ambient air
The ability to measure and control the carrier envelope phase (CEP) of
few-cycle laser pulses is of paramount importance for both frequency metrology
and attosecond science. Here, we present a phase meter relying on the
CEP-dependent photocurrents induced by circularly polarized few-cycle pulses
focused between electrodes in ambient air. The new device facilitates compact
single-shot, CEP measurements under ambient conditions and promises CEP tagging
at repetition rates orders of magnitude higher than most conventional CEP
detection schemes as well as straightforward implementation at longer
wavelengths
Mass Determination from Constraint Effective Potential
The Constraint Effective Potential (CEP) allows a determination of the mass
and other quantities directly, without relying upon asymptotic correlator
decays. We report and discuss the results of some mass calculations in
, obtained from CEP and our improved version of CEP (ICEP).Comment: LATTICE99(Higgs, Yukawa, SUSY
Sensitive frequency-dependence of the carrier-envelope phase effect on bound-bound transition: an interference perspective
We investigate numerically with Hylleraas coordinates the frequency
dependence of the carrier-envelope phase (CEP) effect on bound-bound
transitions of helium induced by an ultrashort laser pulse of few cycles. We
find that the CEP effect is very sensitive to the carrier frequency of the
laser pulse, occurring regularly even at far-off resonance frequencies. By
analyzing a two-level model, we find that the CEP effect can be attributed to
the quantum interference between neighboring multi-photon transition pathways,
which is made possible by the broadened spectrum of the ultrashort laser pulse.
A general picture is developed along this line to understand the sensitivity of
the CEP effect to laser's carrier frequency. Multi-level influence on the CEP
effect is also discussed
P4CEP: Towards In-Network Complex Event Processing
In-network computing using programmable networking hardware is a strong trend
in networking that promises to reduce latency and consumption of server
resources through offloading to network elements (programmable switches and
smart NICs). In particular, the data plane programming language P4 together
with powerful P4 networking hardware has spawned projects offloading services
into the network, e.g., consensus services or caching services. In this paper,
we present a novel case for in-network computing, namely, Complex Event
Processing (CEP). CEP processes streams of basic events, e.g., stemming from
networked sensors, into meaningful complex events. Traditionally, CEP
processing has been performed on servers or overlay networks. However, we argue
in this paper that CEP is a good candidate for in-network computing along the
communication path avoiding detouring streams to distant servers to minimize
communication latency while also exploiting processing capabilities of novel
networking hardware. We show that it is feasible to express CEP operations in
P4 and also present a tool to compile CEP operations, formulated in our P4CEP
rule specification language, to P4 code. Moreover, we identify challenges and
problems that we have encountered to show future research directions for
implementing full-fledged in-network CEP systems.Comment: 6 pages. Author's versio
