Spin diffusion of correlated two-spin states in a dielectric crystal
Reciprocal space measurements of spin diffusion in a single crystal of
calcium fluoride (CaF) have been extended to dipolar ordered states. The
experimental results for the component of the spin diffusion parallel with the
external field are cm/s for the
[001] direction and cm/s for the
[111] direction. The diffusion rates for dipolar order are significantly faster
than those for Zeeman order and are considerably faster than predicted by
simple theoretical models. It is suggested that constructive interference in
the transport of the two spin state is responsible for this enhancement. As
expected the anisotropy in the diffusion rates is observed to be significantly
less for dipolar order compared to the Zeeman case.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures. Resubmitted to PRL - new figure added /

Lineal Trails of D2-D2bar Superstrings
We study the superstrings suspended between a D2- and an anti-D2-brane. We
quantize the string in the presence of some general configuration of gauge
fields over the (anti-)D-brane world volumes. The interstring can move only in
a specific direction that is normal to the difference of the electric fields of
each (anti-)D-branes. Especially when the electric fields are the same, the
interstring cannot move. We obtain the condition for the tachyons to disappear
from the spectrum.Comment: 15 pages with 4 figures, referenced added, Sec. 5 on the spectrum

Depth Estimation Through a Generative Model of Light Field Synthesis
Light field photography captures rich structural information that may
facilitate a number of traditional image processing and computer vision tasks.
A crucial ingredient in such endeavors is accurate depth recovery. We present a
novel framework that allows the recovery of a high quality continuous depth map
from light field data. To this end we propose a generative model of a light
field that is fully parametrized by its corresponding depth map. The model
allows for the integration of powerful regularization techniques such as a
non-local means prior, facilitating accurate depth map estimation.Comment: German Conference on Pattern Recognition (GCPR) 201
Reproducing spin lattice models in strongly coupled atom-cavity systems
In an array of coupled cavities where the cavities are doped with an atomic
V-system, and the two excited levels couple to cavity photons of different
polarizations, we show how to construct various spin models employed in
characterizing phenomena in condensed matter physics, such as the spin-1/2
Ising, XX, Heisenberg, and XXZ models. The ability to construct networks of
arbitrary geometry also allows for the simulation of topological effects. By
tuning the number of excitations present, the dimension of the spin to be
simulated can be controlled, and mixtures of different spin types produced. The
facility of single-site addressing, the use of only the natural hopping photon
dynamics without external fields, and the recent experimental advances towards
strong coupling, makes the prospect of using these arrays as efficient quantum
simulators promising.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures. v3: References adde
Magnetic susceptibility study of hydrated and non-hydrated NaxCoO2-yH2O single crystals
We have measured the magnetic susceptibility of single crystal samples of
non-hydrated NaxCoO2 (x ~ 0.75, 0.67, 0.5, and 0.3) and hydrated Na0.3CoO2-yH2O
(y ~ 0, 0.6, 1.3). Our measurements reveal considerable anisotropy between the
susceptibilities with H||c and H||ab. The derived anisotropic g-factor ratio
(g_ab/g_c) decreases significantly as the composition is changed from the
Curie-Weiss metal with x = 0.75 to the paramagnetic metal with x = 0.3. Fully
hydrated Na0.3CoO2-1.3H2O samples have a larger susceptibility than
non-hydrated Na0.3CoO2 samples, as well as a higher degree of anisotropy. In
addition, the fully hydrated compound contains a small additional fraction of
anisotropic localized spins.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
Pure dephasing in flux qubits due to flux noise with spectral density scaling as
For many types of superconducting qubits, magnetic flux noise is a source of
pure dephasing. Measurements on a representative dc superconducting quantum
interference device (SQUID) over a range of temperatures show that , where is the flux noise spectral density,
is of the order of 1 and ; is the flux quantum. For a qubit with an energy level
splitting linearly coupled to the applied flux, calculations of the dependence
of the pure dephasing time of Ramsey and echo pulse sequences on
for fixed show that decreases rapidly as is
reduced. We find that is relatively insensitive to the noise
bandwidth, , for all provided the ultraviolet
cutoff frequency . We calculate the ratio of the echo () and Ramsey () sequences, and the dependence
of the decay function on and . We investigate the case in which

sensitivity of and to the value of .
Finally, we present calculated values of in a qubit corresponding
to the values of and measured in our SQUID.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figures, 1 tabl

Multi-spin dynamics of the solid-state NMR Free Induction Decay
We present a new experimental investigation of the NMR free induction decay
(FID) in a lattice of spin-1/2 nuclei in a strong Zeeman field. Following a
pi/2 pulse, evolution under the secular dipolar Hamiltonian preserves coherence
number in the Zeeman eigenbasis, but changes the number of correlated spins in
the state. The observed signal is seen to decay as single-spin, single-quantum
coherences evolve into multiple-spin coherences under the action of the dipolar
Hamiltonian. In order to probe the multiple-spin dynamics during the FID, we
measured the growth of coherence orders in a basis other than the usual Zeeman
eigenbasis. This measurement provides the first direct experimental observation
of the growth of coherent multiple-spin correlations during the FID.
Experiments were performed with a cubic lattice of spins (19F in calcium
fluoride) and a linear spin chain (19F in fluorapatite). It is seen that the
geometrical arrangement of the spins plays a significant role in the
development of higher order correlations. The results are discussed in light of
existing theoretical models.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
