Neutrino Mass, Leptogenesis, and Dark Matter from The Dark Sector with U(1)DU(1)_{D}

I suggest a new extension of the SM by introducing a dark sector which has several new particles and a local $U(1)_{D}$ symmetry. The dark particles bring about the new and interesting physics beyond the SM. The model can generate the tiny neutrino mass by a hybrid see-saw mechanism, achieve the leptogenesis at the TeV scale, and account for the cold dark matter. All of the three things collectively arise from the dark sector. In particular, it is very feasible to test the model predictions and probe the dark sector in near future experiments.Comment: 18 pages, 4 figures, to be published by JHEP. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1706.0723

Quantum nondemolition measurements of a flux qubit coupled to a noisy detector

We theoretically study the measurement-induced dephasing caused by back action noise in quantum nondemolition measurements of a superconducting flux qubit which is coupled to a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). Our analytical results indicate that information on qubit flows from qubit to detector, while quantum fluctuations which may cause dephasing of the qubit also inject to qubit. Furthermore, the measurement probability is frequency dependent in a short time scale and has a close relationship with the measurement-induced dephasing. When the detuning between driven and bare resonator equals coupling strength, we will access the state of qubit more easily. In other words, we obtain the maximum measurement rate. Finally, we analyzed mixed effect caused by coupling between non-diagonal term and external variable. We found that the initial information of qubit is destroyed due to quantum tunneling between the qubit states.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure

Inverse transport problem in fluorescence ultrasound modulated optical tomography with angularly averaged measurements

We consider an inverse transport problem in fluorescence ultrasound modulated optical tomography (fUMOT) with angularly averaged illuminations and measurements. We study the uniqueness and stability of the reconstruction of the absorption coefficient and the quantum efficiency of the fluorescent probes. Reconstruction algorithms are proposed and numerical validations are performed as well. This paper is an extension of arXiv:1804.01135, where a diffusion model for this problem was considered.Comment: 21 page

New Optimal Binary Sequences with Period 4p4p via Interleaving Ding-Helleseth-Lam Sequences

Binary sequences with optimal autocorrelation play important roles in radar, communication, and cryptography. Finding new binary sequences with optimal autocorrelation has been an interesting research topic in sequence design. Ding-Helleseth-Lam sequences are such a class of binary sequences of period $p$, where $p$ is an odd prime with $p\equiv 1(\bmod~4)$. The objective of this letter is to present a construction of binary sequences of period $4p$ via interleaving four suitable Ding-Helleseth-Lam sequences. This construction generates new binary sequences with optimal autocorrelation which can not be produced by earlier ones
