Some Exact Solutions For The Classical Hall Effect In Inhomogeneous Magnetic Field
The classical Hall effect in inhomogeneous systems is considered for the case
of one-dimensional inhomogeneity. For a certain geometry of the problem and for
the magnetic field linearly depending on the coordinate the density of current
distribution corresponds to the skin-effect.Comment: 5 pages, LaTe
Observation of quantum spin noise in a 1D light-atoms quantum interface
We observe collective quantum spin states of an ensemble of atoms in a
one-dimensional light-atom interface. Strings of hundreds of cesium atoms
trapped in the evanescent fiel of a tapered nanofiber are prepared in a
coherent spin state, a superposition of the two clock states. A weak quantum
nondemolition measurement of one projection of the collective spin is performed
using a detuned probe dispersively coupled to the collective atomic observable,
followed by a strong destructive measurement of the same spin projection. For
the coherent spin state we achieve the value of the quantum projection noise 40
dB above the detection noise, well above the 3 dB required for reconstruction
of the negative Wigner function of nonclassical states. We analyze the effects
of strong spatial inhomogeneity inherent to atoms trapped and probed by the
evanescent waves. We furthermore study temporal dynamics of quantum
fluctuations relevant for measurement-induced spin squeezing and assess the
impact of thermal atomic motion. This work paves the road towards observation
of spin squeezed and entangled states and many-body interactions in 1D spin
ensembles
Contact tracing and epidemics control in social networks
A generalization of the standard susceptible-infectious-removed (SIR)
stochastic model for epidemics in sparse random networks is introduced which
incorporates contact tracing in addition to random screening. We propose a
deterministic mean-field description which yields quantitative agreement with
stochastic simulations on random graphs. We also analyze the role of contact
tracing in epidemics control in small-world networks and show that its
effectiveness grows as the rewiring probability is reduced.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, submitted to PR
Dynamics and phase evolution of Bose-Einstein condensates in one-dimensional optical lattices
We report experimental results on the dynamics and phase evolution of
Bose-Einstein condensates in 1D optical lattices. The dynamical behaviour is
studied by adiabatically loading the condensate into the lattice and
subsequently switching off the magnetic trap. In this case, the condensate is
free to expand inside the periodic structure of the optical lattice. The phase
evolution of the condensate, on the other hand, can be studied by
non-adiabatically switching on the periodic potential. We observe decays and
revivals of the interference pattern after a time-of-flight.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures; submitted to the Proceedings of the 11th Laser

A Gauge-fixed Hamiltonian for Lattice QCD
We study the gauge fixing of lattice QCD in 2+1 dimensions, in the
Hamiltonian formulation. The technique easily generalizes to other theories and
dimensions. The Hamiltonian is rewritten in terms of variables which are gauge
invariant except under a single global transformation. This paper extends
previous work, involving only pure gauge theories, to include matter fields.Comment: 7 pages of LaTeX, RU-92-45 and BUHEP-92-3
Generation and detection of a sub-Poissonian atom number distribution in a one-dimensional optical lattice
We demonstrate preparation and detection of an atom number distribution in a
one-dimensional atomic lattice with the variance dB below the Poissonian
noise level. A mesoscopic ensemble containing a few thousand atoms is trapped
in the evanescent field of a nanofiber. The atom number is measured through
dual-color homodyne interferometry with a pW-power shot noise limited probe.
Strong coupling of the evanescent probe guided by the nanofiber allows for a
real-time measurement with a precision of atoms on an ensemble of some
atoms in a one-dimensional trap. The method is very well suited for
generating collective atomic entangled or spin-squeezed states via a quantum
non-demolition measurement as well as for tomography of exotic atomic states in
a one-dimensional lattice
A model for the phase separation controlled by doping and the internal chemical pressure in different cuprate superconductors
In the framework of a two-band model, we study the phase separation regime of
different kinds of strongly correlated charge carriers as a function of the
energy splitting between the two sets of bands. The narrow (wide) band
simulates the more localized (more delocalized) type of charge carriers. By
assuming that the internal chemical pressure on the CuO layer due to
interlayer mismatch controls the energy splitting between the two sets of
states, the theoretical predictions are able to reproduce the regime of phase
separation at doping higher than 1/8 in the experimental pressure-doping-
phase diagram of cuprates at large microstrain as it appears in overoxygenated
LaCuO.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
