High Bandwidth Atomic Magnetometery with Continuous Quantum Non-demolition Measurements
We describe an experimental study of spin-projection noise in a high
sensitivity alkali-metal magnetometer. We demonstrate a four-fold improvement
in the measurement bandwidth of the magnetometer using continuous quantum
non-demolition (QND) measurements. Operating in the scalar mode with a
measurement volume of 2 cm^3 we achieve magnetic field sensitivity of 22
fT/Hz^(1/2) and a bandwidth of 1.9 kHz with a spin polarization of only 1%. Our
experimental arrangement is naturally back-action evading and can be used to
realize sub-fT sensitivity with a highly polarized spin-squeezed atomic vapor.Comment: 4 page
Noise spectroscopy of optical microcavity
The intensity noise spectrum of the light passed through an optical
microcavity is calculated with allowance for thermal fluctuations of its
thickness. The spectrum thus obtained reveals a peak at the frequency of
acoustic mode localized inside the microcavity and depends on the size of the
illuminated area. The estimates of the noise magnitude show that it can be
detected using the up-to-date noise spectroscopy technique.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figur
Simulations of magnetic and magnetoelastic properties of Tb2Ti2O7 in paramagnetic phase
Magnetic and magnetoelastic properties of terbium titanate pyrochlore in
paramagnetic phase are simulated. The magnetic field and temperature
dependences of magnetization and forced magnetostriction in Tb2Ti2O7 single
crystals and polycrystalline samples are calculated in the framework of
exchange charge model of crystal field theory and a mean field approximation.
The set of electron-deformation coupling constants has been determined.
Variations of elastic constants with temperature and applied magnetic field are
discussed. Additional strong softening of the crystal lattice at liquid helium
temperatures in the magnetic field directed along the rhombic symmetry axis is
predicted.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures, 2 table
Multi-Logarithmic Differential Forms on Complete Intersections
We construct a complex of sheaves of multi-logarithmic differential forms on a complex
analytic manifold with respect to a reduced complete intersection; and define the residue
map as a natural morphism from this complex onto the Barlet complex of regular meromorphic
differential forms: It follows then that sections of the Barlet complex can be regarded as a generalization of the residue differential forms defined by Leray. Moreover, we show that the residue map can be described explicitly in terms of certain integration current
