Mixed-Signal Testability Analysis for Data-Converter IPs

In this paper, a new procedure to derive testability measures is presented. Digital testability can be calculated by means of probability, while in analog it is possible to calculate testability using impedance values. Although attempts have been made to reach compatibility, matching was somewhat arbitrary and therefore not necessarily compatible. The concept of the new approach is that digital and analog can be integrated in a more consistent way. More realistic testability figures are obtained, which makes testability of true mixed-signal systems and circuits feasible. To verify the results, our method is compared with a sensitivity analysis, for a simple 3-bit ADC

Resonance triplet dynamics in the quenched unitary Bose gas

The quenched unitary Bose gas is a paradigmatic example of a strongly interacting out-of-equilibrium quantum system, whose dynamics become difficult to describe theoretically due to the growth of non-Gaussian quantum correlations. We develop a conserving many-body theory capable of capturing these effects, allowing us to model the postquench dynamics in the previously inaccessible time regime where the gas departs from the universal prethermal stage. Our results show that this departure is driven by the growth of strong lossless three-body correlations, rather than atomic losses, thus framing the heating of the gas in this regime as a fully coherent phenomenon. We uncover the specific few-body scattering processes that affect this heating and show that the expected connection between the two-body and three-body contacts and the tail of the momentum distribution is obscured following the prethermal stage, explaining the absence of this connection in experiments. Our general framework, which reframes the dynamics of unitary quantum systems in terms of explicit connections to microscopic physics, can be broadly applied to any quantum system containing strong few-body correlations.</p

Stability and Change of Social Relationship Quality in Captive Chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes )

In social animals an individual's fitness depends partly on the quality of relationships with others. Qualitative variation in relationships has been conceptualized according to a three-dimensional structure, consisting of relationship value, compatibility, and security. However, the determinants of the components and their temporal stability are not well understood. We studied relationship quality in a newly formed group of 20 captive chimpanzees made up of several previously existing social groups. We assessed dyadic relationship quality 2yr and again 7yr after grouping. We confirmed the existence and stability of three relationship components and labeled them value, compatibility, and approach symmetry. Previously familiar dyads had a higher value than unfamiliar dyads, especially when they were maternally or paternally related. Compatibility was higher in dyads with only females than in dyads containing a male, but familiarity did not influence compatibility. Approach symmetry was initially higher, but later lower, in familiar than unfamiliar dyads, indicating that approach symmetry of familiar dyads decreased over time. Dyadic value and compatibility were highly stable over time, which is similar to the long relationship duration found in wild chimpanzees. In sum, relationships formed earlier in life became more valuable than those formed in later adulthood, whereas nonaggressive, compatible relationships could be formed throughout life. This suggests that for immigrating individuals, high-value relationships may be relatively difficult to establish, partly explaining why wild female chimpanzees have relatively few high-quality relationships with other females. Our study supports the multicomponent structure and durability of relationships in social specie

The Efimovian three-body potential from broad to narrow Feshbach resonances

We analyse the change in the hyperradial Efimovian three-body potential as the two-body interaction is tuned from the broad to narrow Feshbach resonance regime. Here, it is known from both theory and experiment that the three-body dissociation scattering length a− shifts away from the universal value of −9.7 rvdW, with rvdW=12(mC6/ℏ2)1/4 the two-body van der Waals range. We model the three-body system using a separable two-body interaction that takes into account the full zero-energy behaviour of the multichannel wave function. We find that the short-range repulsive barrier in the three-body potential characteristic for single-channel models remains universal for narrow resonances, whilst the change in the three-body parameter originates from a strong decrease in the potential depth. From an analysis of the underlying spin structure we further attribute this behavior to the dominance of the two-body interaction in the resonant channel compared to other background interactions

Efimovian three-body potential from broad to narrow Feshbach resonances

We analyse the change in the hyperradial Efimovian three-body potential as the two-body interaction is tuned from the broad to narrow Feshbach resonance regime. Here, it is known from both theory and experiment that the three-body dissociation scattering length $a_-$ shifts away from the universal value of $-9.7 \ r_{\mathrm{vdW}}$, with $r_{\mathrm{vdW}} = \frac{1}{2} \left(m C_6/\hbar^2 \right)^{1/4}$ the two-body van der Waals range. We model the three-body system using a separable two-body interaction that takes into account the full zero-energy behaviour of the multichannel wave function. We find that the short-range repulsive barrier in the three-body potential characteristic for single-channel models remains universal for narrow resonances, whilst the change in the three-body parameter originates from a strong decrease in the potential depth. From an analysis of the underlying spin structure we further attribute this behavior to the dominance of the two-body interaction in the resonant channel compared to other background interactions.Comment: 12 pages, 11 figure
