Rederivation of the Casimir force under the completeness relation of continuum operator

Casimir effects manifests that, the two closely paralleled plates, generally produce a macroscopic attractive force due to the quantum vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic fields. The derivation of the force requires an {\it artificial} regulator by removing the divergent summation. By including naturally a spectrum density factor, based on the observation that an incomplete eigenvectors of observable, such as the eigenstates for the photons in the free field, can form a complete set of eigenvectors by introducing a unique spectrum transformation, an alternative way is presented to rederive the force, without using a regulator. As a result, the Casimir forces are obtained with the first term $-\pi^2 \hbar c/(240 a^4)$ attractive, and the second one, $-\pi^4 \hbar c^3 \sigma^2/(1008 a^6)$, also attractive but smaller, with $a$ the plate separation, and $\sigma$ a to-be-determined small constant number in the spectrum density factor.Comment: 5 page

Wave-packet trains of a time-dependent harmonic oscillator

By using a test-function method, we construct $n$ exact solutions of a quantum harmonic oscillator with a time-dependent "spring constant". Any $n$-th solution describes a wave-packet train consisting of $n+1$ packets. Its center oscillates like the classically harmonic oscillator with variable frequency, and width and highness of each packet change simultaneously. When the deformation is small, it behaves like a soliton train, and the large deformation is identified with collapse and revival of the wave-packet train.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

Implementation for Solving Random Satisfiability Problems through CNOT-based circuits in a NMR Quantum Processor

We give a general method of construting quantum circuit for random \QTR{it}{satisfiability} (SAT) problems with the basic logic gates such as multi-qubit controlled-NOT and NOT gates. The sizes of these circuits are almost the same as the sizes of the SAT formulas. Further, a parallelization scheme is described to solve random SAT problems efficiently through these quantum circuits in \QTR{it}{nuclear magnetic resonance} (NMR) ensemble quantum computing. This scheme exploits truly mixed states as input states rather than pseudo-pure states, and combines with the topological nanture of the NMR spectrum to identify the solutions to SAT problems in a parallel way. Several typical SAT problems have been experimentally demonstrated by this scheme with good performances.Comment: 17 pages, 7 figure

Conditional Spontaneous Spin Polarization and Bifurcation Delay in Coupled Two-Component Bose-Einstein Condensates

The spontaneous spin polarization and bifurcation delay in two-component Bose-Einstein condensates coupled with Raman pulses are investigated. We find that the bifurcation and the spontaneous spin polarization depend not only on the system parameters, but also on the relative phase between two components. Through bifurcations, the system enters into the spontaneous spin polarization regime from the Rabi regime. We also find that bifurcation delay appears when the parameter is swept through the static bifurcation point. This bifurcation delay is responsible for metastability leading to hysteresis. The area enclosed in the hysteresis loop increases with the sweeping rate of the parameter.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure

Experimental demonstration of the interferometric complementarity of one- and two-particle interference in a bulk Nuclear Magnetic Resonance ensemble

We analyze an interferometric complementarity between one- and two-particle interference in the general case: $V_{i}^{2}+V_{12}^{2}\leq 1$ $(i=1$, $2)$, and further examine the relation among one-particle interference visibility $V_{i}$, two-particle interference visibility $V_{12}$ and the predication $P_{i}$ of the path of a single particle. An equality $V_{i}^{2}+V_{12}^{2}+P_{i}^{2}=1$ $(i=1$, $2)$ is achieved for any pure two-particle source, which implies the condition of the complementarity relation to reach the upper bound and its relation to another interferometric complementarity between path information and interference visibility of a single particle. Meanwhile, the relationships of the complementarities and the entanglement $E$ of the composite system are also investigated. Using nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, the two-particle interferometric complementarity was experimentally tested with the ensemble-averaged spin states, including two extreme cases and an intermediate case.Comment: 8 pages, 4 PS figure

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Implemenations of Remote State Preparation of Arbitary Longitudinal Qubit and Remote State Measurement of a Qubit

A qubit chosen from equatorial or polar great circles on a Bloch sphere can be remotely prepared with an Einstain-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) state shared and a cbit communication. We generalize this protocal into an arbitrary longitudinal qubit on the Bloch sphere in which the azimuthal angle phi can be an arbitrary value instead of only being zero. The generalized scheme was experimentally realized using liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. Also, we have experimentally demonstrated remote state measurement (RSM) on an arbitary qubit proposed by Pati.Comment: 10 pages, 3 PS figure

Quantum computing by pairing trapped ultracold ions

The superpositional wave function oscillations for finite-time implementation of quantum algorithms modifies the desired interference required for quantum computing. We propose a scheme with trapped ultracold ion-pairs being qubits to diminish the detrimental effect of the wave function oscillations, and apply the scheme to the two-qubit Grover's search. It can be also found that the qubits in our scheme are more robust against the decoherence caused by the environment, and the model is scalable.Comment: 10 pages, no figure

Numerical Approach to the Evolution of the Spin-boson Systems and its Application on the Buck-Sukumar Model

We present a systematic numerical iteration approach to study the evolution properties of the spin-boson systems, which works well in whole coupling regime. This approach involves the evaluation of a set of coefficients for the formal expansion of the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation $\vert t\rangle=e^{-i\hat{H}t}\vert t=0\rangle$ by expanding the initial state $\vert t=0\rangle$ in Fock space. The main advantage of this method is that this set of coefficients is unique for the Hamiltonian studied, which allows one to calculate the time evolution based on the different initial states. To complement our numerical calculations, the method is applied to the Buck-Sukumar model. Furthermore, we pointed out that, when the ground state energy of the model is unbounded and no ground state exists in a certain parameter space, the unstable time evolution of the physical quantities is the natural results. Furthermore, we test the performance of the numerical method to the Hamiltonian that use anti-Hermitian terms for modeling open quantum systems.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure

Condensate fraction of molecules for a spin mixture of ultracold fermionic atoms

The condensate fraction of molecules for ultracold Fermi gases is investigated for the magnetic field below the Feshbach resonant magnetic field. Assuming that there is no loss of particles and energy during the adiabatic magnetic-field sweep, a simple theory is used to interpret the measured condensate fraction in the experiments by JILA group (Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 040403 (2004)) and MIT group (Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 120403 (2004)). Our theory shows that the condensate fraction of molecules is dependent on the initial condition of the system and especially on the process of the magnetic-field sweep.Comment: 4 pages, RevTex, 2 figs, E-mail: [email protected] A revised version according to the comments and suggestions of the referee
