Synthetic Quantum Systems
So far proposed quantum computers use fragile and environmentally sensitive
natural quantum systems. Here we explore the new notion that synthetic quantum
systems suitable for quantum computation may be fabricated from smart
nanostructures using topological excitations of a stochastic neural-type
network that can mimic natural quantum systems. These developments are a
technological application of process physics which is an information theory of
reality in which space and quantum phenomena are emergent, and so indicates the
deep origins of quantum phenomena. Analogous complex stochastic dynamical
systems have recently been proposed within neurobiology to deal with the
emergent complexity of biosystems, particularly the biodynamics of higher brain
function. The reasons for analogous discoveries in fundamental physics and
neurobiology are discussed.Comment: 16 pages, Latex, 1 eps figure fil

Earth strain measurements with the transportable laser ranging system: Field techniques and planning
The potential of the transportable laser ranging system for monitoring the ground deformation around satellite ranging stations and other geodetic control points was examined with emphasis on testing the usefulness of the relative alteration technique. The temporal variation of the ratio of the length of each survey line to the mean length of all survey lines in a given area is directly related to the mean shear strain rate for the area. The data from a series of experimental measurements taken over the Los Angeles basin from a TLRS station at Mt. Wilson show that such ratios can be determined to an accuracy of one part in 10 million with a measurement program lasting for three days and without using any corrections for variations in atmospheric conditions. A numerical experiment using a set of hypothetical data indicates that reasonable estimates of the present shear strain rate and the direction of the principal axes in southern California can be deduced from such measurements over an interval of one to two years
Soliton with a Pion Field in the Global Color Symmetry Model
We calculate the property of the global color symmetry model soliton with the
pion field being included explicitly. The calculated results indicate that the
pion field provides a strong attraction so that the eigen-energy of a quark and
the mass of a soliton reduce drastically, in contrast to those with only the
sigma field.Comment: 15 pages, 2 figure
Nonperturbative aspects of the quark-photon vertex
The electromagnetic interaction with quarks is investigated through a
relativistic, electromagnetic gauge-invariant treatment. Gluon dressing of the
quark-photon vertex and the quark self-energy functions is described by the
inhomogeneous Bethe-Salpeter equation in the ladder approximation and the
Schwinger-Dyson equation in the rainbow approximation respectively. Results for
the calculation of the quark-photon vertex are presented in both the time-like
and space-like regions of photon momentum squared, however emphasis is placed
on the space-like region relevant to electron scattering. The treatment
presented here simultaneously addresses the role of dynamically generated
vector bound states and the approach to asymptotic behavior. The
resulting description is therefore applicable over the entire range of momentum
transfers available in electron scattering experiments. Input parameters are
limited to the model gluon two-point function, which is chosen to reflect
confinement and asymptotic freedom, and are largely constrained by the obtained
bound-state spectrum.Comment: 8 figures available on request by email, 25 pages, Revtex,

University Hate Speech Codes: A Necessary Method in the Process of Eradicating the Universal Wrong of Racism
Squeezed gluon vacuum and the global colour model of QCD
We discuss how the vacuum model of Celenza and Shakin with a squeezed gluon
condensate can explain the existence of an infrared singular gluon propagator
frequently used in calculations within the global colour model. In particular,
it reproduces a recently proposed QCD-motivated model where low energy chiral
parameters were computed as a function of a dynamically generated gluon mass.
We show how the strength of the confining interaction of this gluon propagator
and the value of the physical gluon condensate may be connected.Comment: 13 pages, LaTe
Wind turbine generator rotor blade concepts with low cost potential
Four processed for producing blades are examined. Two use filament winding techniques and two involve filling a mold or form to produce all or part of a blade. The processes are described and a comparison is made of cost, material properties, design and free vibration characteristics. Conclusions are made regarding the feasibility of each process to produce low cost, structurally adequate blades
