On the electric charge of quantized vortices and the dipole moment of vortex pairs and rings in a magnetic field

It is shown that, in the presence of a magnetic field, a quantized vortex line in a superfluid liquid acquires a linear polarization charge, which is localized near the vortex axis over a length on the order of the coherence length. It is found that the total charge of a rectilinear vortex is nonzero, while the vortex pair and vortex ring have a nonzero dipole moment. The electric fields of rectilinear vortices near the end surface of a cylindrical vessel filled with a superfluid liquid are calculated. The electric polarization of superfluid systems in the presence of thermally activated vortex pairs and vortex rings has been studied. It is shown that such a polarization arises in the presence of relative motion of the normal and superfluid components.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figure

Causal signal transmission by quantum fields. IV: The causal Wick theorem

Wick's theorem in the Schwinger-Perel-Keldysh closed-time-loop formalism is written in a form where the place of contractions is taken by the linear response function of the field. This result demonstrates that the physical information supplied by Wick's theorem for operators is propagation of the free field in space and time.Comment: Final version, to appear in Phys Rev

Tunneling-assisted impact ionization fronts in semiconductors

We propose a novel type of ionization front in layered semiconductor structures. The propagation is due to the interplay of band-to-band tunneling and impact ionization. Our numerical simulations show that the front can be triggered when an extremely sharp voltage ramp ($\sim 10 {\rm kV/ns}$) is applied in reverse direction to a Si $p^+-n-n^+-$structure that is connected in series with an external load. The triggering occurs after a delay of 0.7 to 0.8 ns. The maximal electrical field at the front edge exceeds $10^6 {\rm V/cm}$. The front velocity $v_f$ is 40 times faster than the saturated drift velocity $v_s$. The front passes through the $n-$base with a thickness of $100 {\mu m}$ within approximately 30 ps, filling it with dense electron-hole plasma. This passage is accompanied by a voltage drop from 8 kV to dozens of volts. In this way a voltage pulse with a ramp up to $500 {\rm kV/ns}$ can be applied to the load. The possibility to form a kilovolt pulse with such a voltage rise rate sets new frontiers in pulse power electronics.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure
