On entanglement-assisted classical capacity
This paper is essentially a lecture from the author's course on quantum
information theory, which is devoted to the result of C. H. Bennett, P. W.
Shor, J. A. Smolin and A. V. Thapliyal (quant-ph/0106052) concerning
entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a quantum channel. A modified proof
of this result is given and relation between entanglement-assisted and
unassisted classical capacities is discussed.Comment: 10 pages, LATE
Radiative damping and synchronization in a graphene-based terahertz emitter
We investigate the collective electron dynamics in a recently proposed
graphene-based terahertz emitter under the influence of the radiative damping
effect, which is included self-consistently in a molecular dynamics approach.
We show that under appropriate conditions synchronization of the dynamics of
single electrons takes place, leading to a rise of the oscillating component of
the charge current. The synchronization time depends dramatically on the
applied dc electric field and electron scattering rate, and is roughly
inversely proportional to the radiative damping rate that is determined by the
carrier concentration and the geometrical parameters of the device. The
emission spectra in the synchronized state, determined by the oscillating
current component, are analyzed. The effective generation of higher harmonics
for large values of the radiative damping strength is demonstrated.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
Microfluidic immunomagnetic multi-target sorting – a model for controlling deflection of paramagnetic beads
We describe a microfluidic system that uses a magnetic field to sort paramagnetic beads by deflecting them in the direction normal to the flow. Our experiments systematically study the dependence of the beads’ deflection on: bead size and susceptibility, magnet strength, fluid speed and viscosity, and device geometry. We also develop a design parameter that can aid in the design of microfluidic devices for immunomagnetic multi-target sorting
Performance and Meat Cholesterol Content of Broiler Chickens Fed Pluchea Indica L. Leaf Meal Reared Under Stress Condition
This experiment was conducted to study the effects of dietary addition Pluchea indica L. leaf meal on performances and meat cholesterol content of broiler. One hundred sixty two DOC CP707 strain were reared for four weeks in high stocking density of 15 birds/m2. The birds were fed experimental diets consisted of R1 (commercial feed + Vitastress), R2 (commercial feed + 2% P. indica leaf meal), R3 (commercial feed + 4% P. indica leaf meal), R4 (commercial feed + 6% P. indica leaf meal), and R5 (commercial feed + 8% P. indica leaf meal). The data obtained were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and any significant differences were further tested using least significance difference (LSD) test. The treatment significantly increased (P < 0.05) final body weight, body weight gain, feed and water intake, and decreased (P < 0.05) feed conversion ratio. It is concluded that P. indica leaf meal could be added into a diet at the level of 2%. P. indica leaf meal addition at the level of 2% into a diet is also able to decrease the cholesterol content of broiler meat up to 8%
A Typology for Quantum Hall Liquids
There is a close analogy between the response of a quantum Hall liquid (QHL)
to a small change in the electron density and the response of a superconductor
to an externally applied magnetic flux - an analogy which is made concrete in
the Chern-Simons Landau-Ginzburg (CSLG) formulation of the problem. As the
Types of superconductor are distinguished by this response, so too for QHLs: a
typology can be introduced which is, however, richer than that in
superconductors owing to the lack of any time-reversal symmetry relating
positive and negative fluxes. At the boundary between Type I and Type II
behavior, the CSLG action has a "Bogomol'nyi point," where the quasi-holes
(vortices) are non-interacting - at the microscopic level, this corresponds to
the behavior of systems governed by a set of model Hamiltonians which have been
constructed to render exact a large class of QHL wavefunctions. All Types of
QHLs are capable of giving rise to quantized Hall plateaux.Comment: 4 +epsilon pages, 1 figure; v2 has added references and minor
