Band Gap Closing in a Synthetic Hall Tube of Neutral Fermions
We report the experimental realization of a synthetic three-leg Hall tube
with ultracold fermionic atoms in a one-dimensional optical lattice. The legs
of the synthetic tube are composed of three hyperfine spin states of the atoms,
and the cyclic inter-leg links are generated by two-photon Raman transitions
between the spin states, resulting in a uniform gauge flux penetrating
each side plaquette of the tube. Using quench dynamics, we investigate the band
structure of the Hall tube system for a commensurate flux .
Momentum-resolved analysis of the quench dynamics reveals that a critical point
of band gap closing as one of the inter-leg coupling strengths is varied, which
is consistent with a topological phase transition predicted for the Hall tube
system.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figure
Double resonance of Raman transitions in a degenerate Fermi gas
We measure momentum-resolved Raman spectra of a spin-polarized degenerate
Fermi gas of Yb atoms for a wide range of magnetic fields, where the
atoms are irradiated by a pair of counterpropagating Raman laser beams as in
the conventional spin-orbit coupling scheme. Double resonance of first- and
second-order Raman transitions occurs at a certain magnetic field and the
spectrum exhibits a doublet splitting for high laser intensities. The measured
spectral splitting is quantitatively accounted for by the Autler-Townes effect.
We show that our measurement results are consistent with the spinful band
structure of a Fermi gas in the spatially oscillating effective magnetic field
generated by the Raman laser fields.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
A Study on Thermal Modeling and Heat Load Mitigation for Satellite Electronic Components
Since most of the satellite components are using various EEE (Electrical, Electronic and Electromechanical) parts, the reliability of EEE parts acts very important in the satellite system. There are many factors that influence the reliability of EEE parts in the satellite system. Excessively dissipated heat can cause the failure of EEE parts and consequently, leading to a failure of total satellite system. In this paper, the thermal modeling using nodal network was compared with that using plate modeling to find out which one is the most suitable methodology. For a comparison, KOMPSAT- 1 SAR was modeled by two different modeling and the result was discussed. There was almost no difference in the numerical results between the two modeling methods. However, while it took much more time to perform thermal analysis using the nodal network modeling method, and the debugging was more difficult in the plate modeling method when the error is occurred. The computation time was considerably reduced by developing and implementing the input file format transfer code when using nodal network modeling method. It was found that the nodal network modeling method is suitable for the complicated components, such as SAR or transponder, because of its simple debugging ability. Excessive heat load was expected on some EEE parts of SAR such as high heat-dissipated diodes, transistors, and inductors due to increased power requirements of KOMPSAT-2 satellite system. The methods for the mitigation of heat load were studied through the design change of housing or the layout change of high power parts
Creutz ladder in a resonantly shaken 1D optical lattice
We report the experimental realization of a Creutz ladder for ultracold fermionic atoms in a resonantly driven 1D optical lattice. The two-leg ladder consists of the two lowest orbital states of the optical lattice and the cross inter-leg links are generated via two-photon resonant coupling between the orbitals by periodic lattice shaking. The characteristic pseudo-spin winding structure in the energy bands of the ladder system is demonstrated using momentum-resolved Ramsey-type interferometric measurements. We discuss a two-tone driving method to extend the inter-leg link control and propose a topological charge pumping scheme for the Creutz ladder system. ©2020 The Author(s).

Long-time behavior towards viscous-dispersive shock for Navier-Stokes equations of Korteweg type
We consider the so-called Naiver-Stokes-Korteweg(NSK) equations for the
dynamics of compressible barotropic viscous fluids with internal capillarity.
We handle the time-asymptotic stability in 1D of the viscous-dispersive shock
wave that is a traveling wave solution to NSK as a viscous-dispersive
counterpart of a Riemann shock. More precisely, we prove that when the
prescribed far-field states of NSK are connected by a single Hugoniot curve,
then solutions of NSK tend to the viscous-dispersive shock wave as time goes to
infinity. To obtain the convergence, we extend the theory of -contraction
with shifts, used for the Navier-Stokes equations, to the NSK system. The main
difficulty in analysis for NSK is due to the third-order derivative terms of
the specific volume in the momentum equation. To resolve the problem, we
introduce an auxiliary variable that is equivalent to the derivative of the
specific volume
Optimal Harvesting for an Age-Spatial-Structured Population Dynamic Model with External Mortality
We study an optimal harvesting for a nonlinear age-spatial-structured population dynamic model, where the dynamic system contains an external mortality rate depending on the total population size. The total mortality consists of two types: the natural, and external mortality and the external mortality reflects the effects of external environmental causes. We prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the population dynamic model. We also derive a sufficient condition for optimal harvesting and some necessary conditions for optimality in an optimal control problem relating to the population dynamic model. The results may be applied to an optimal harvesting for some realistic biological models
Realization of a cross-linked chiral ladder with neutral fermions in an optical lattice by orbital-momentum coupling
We report the experimental realization of a cross-linked chiral ladder with
ultracold fermionic atoms in an optical lattice. In the ladder, the legs are
formed by the orbital states of the optical lattice and the complex inter-leg
links are generated by the orbital-changing Raman transitions that are driven
by a moving lattice potential superimposed onto the optical lattice. The
effective magnetic flux per ladder plaquette is tuned by the spatial
periodicity of the moving lattice, and the chiral currents are observed from
the asymmetric momentum distributions of the orbitals. The effect of the
complex cross links is demonstrated in quench dynamics by measuring the
momentum dependence of the inter-orbital coupling strength. We discuss the
topological phase transition of the chiral ladder system for the variations of
the complex cross links.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figure
