Fundamental Gates for a Strongly Correlated Two-Electron Quantum Ring
We demonstrate that conditional as well as unconditional basic operations
which are prerequisite for universal quantum gates can be performed with almost
100% fidelity within a strongly interacting two-electron quantum ring. Both
sets of operations are based on a quantum control algorithm that optimizes a
driving electromagnetic pulse for a given quantum gate. The demonstrated
transitions occur on a time scale much shorter than typical decoherence times
of the system.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, copyright 2010 The American Physical Societ
Performance characteristics of the 12 GHz, 200 watt transmitter experiment package for CTS
The experiment package consists of a 200 W output stage tube (OST) powered by a power processing system (PPS). Descriptions of both the PPS and OST are given. The PPS provides the necessary voltages with a measured dc/dc conversion efficiency of 89 percent. The OST, a traveling wave tube with multiple collectors, has a saturated rf output power of 224 W and operates at an overall efficiency exceeding 40 percent over an 85 MHz bandwidth at 12 GHz. OST performance given includes frequency response, saturation characteristics, group delay, AM to PM conversion, inter-modulation distortion, and two channel gain suppression. Single and dual channel FM video performance is presented. It was determined that for 12 MHz peak to peak frequency deviation on each channel, dual channel FM television signals can be transmitted through the TEP at 60 W, each channel, with 40 MHz channel spacing (center to center)

Toward the Jamming Threshold of Sphere Packings: Tunneled Crystals
We have discovered a new family of three-dimensional crystal sphere packings
that are strictly jammed (i.e., mechanically stable) and yet possess an
anomalously low density. This family constitutes an uncountably infinite number
of crystal packings that are subpackings of the densest crystal packings and
are characterized by a high concentration of self-avoiding "tunnels" (chains of
vacancies) that permeate the structures. The fundamental geometric
characteristics of these tunneled crystals command interest in their own right
and are described here in some detail. These include the lattice vectors (that
specify the packing configurations), coordination structure, Voronoi cells, and
density fluctuations. The tunneled crystals are not only candidate structures
for achieving the jamming threshold (lowest-density rigid packing), but may
have substantially broader significance for condensed matter physics and
materials science.Comment: 19 pages, 5 figure
Multi-object spectroscopy of low redshift EIS clusters. I
We report the results of the first multi-object spectroscopic observations at
the Danish 1.54m telescope at La Silla, Chile. Observations of five cluster
candidates from the ESO Imaging Survey Cluster Candidate Catalog are described.
From these observations we confirm the reality of the five clusters with
measured redshifts of 0.11<=z<=0.35. We estimate velocity dispersions in the
range 294-621km/s indicating rather poor clusters. This, and the measured
cluster redshifts are consistent with the results of the matched filter
procedure applied to produce the Cluster Candidate Catalog.Comment: 7pages, accepted by Astronomy and Astrophysic
Metric adjusted skew information: Convexity and restricted forms of superadditivity
We give a truly elementary proof of the convexity of metric adjusted skew
information following an idea of Effros. We extend earlier results of weak
forms of superadditivity to general metric adjusted skew informations.
Recently, Luo and Zhang introduced the notion of semi-quantum states on a
bipartite system and proved superadditivity of the Wigner-Yanase-Dyson skew
informations for such states. We extend this result to general metric adjusted
skew informations. We finally show that a recently introduced extension to
parameter values of the WYD-information is a special case of
(unbounded) metric adjusted skew information.Comment: An error in the literature is pointed ou
Cluster evolution in steady-state two-phase flow in porous media
We report numerical studies of the cluster development of two-phase flow in a
steady-state environment of porous media. This is done by including biperiodic
boundary conditions in a two-dimensional flow simulator. Initial transients of
wetting and non-wetting phases that evolve before steady-state has occurred,
undergo a cross-over where every initial patterns are broken up. For flow
dominated by capillary effects with capillary numbers in order of , we
find that around a critical saturation of non-wetting fluid the non-wetting
clusters of size have a power-law distribution with
the exponent for large clusters. This is a lower value
than the result for ordinary percolation. We also present scaling relation and
time evolution of the structure and global pressure.Comment: 12 pages, 11 figures. Minor corrections. Accepted for publication in
