Spectral analysis of molecular resonances in erbium isotopes: Are they close to semi-Poisson?
We perform a thorough analysis of the spectral statistics of experimental
molecular resonances, of bosonic erbium Er and Er isotopes,
produced as a function of magnetic field() by Frisch et al. [Nature 507,
(2014) 475], utilizing some recently derived surmises which interpolate between
Poisson and GOE and without unfolding. Supplementing this with an analysis
using unfolded spectrum, it is shown that the resonances are close to
semi-Poisson distribution. There is an earlier claim of missing resonances by
Molina et al. [Phys. Rev. E 92, (2015) 042906]. These two interpretations can
be tested by more precise measurements in future experiments.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
Dynamics of order-disorder and complexity for interacting bosons in optical lattice
The present work reports on the dynamical measures of order, disorder and
complexity for the interacting bosons in optical lattice. We report results
both for the relaxed state as well as quench dynamics. Our key observations
are: (1) Lattice depth can be taken as order-disorder parameter. (2) The
superfluid to Mott insulator transition can be treated as `order-disorder'
transition. Our main motivation is to find how the system organize by itself
during quench and how it optimizes the complexity. We find dynamical measures
of order and disorder are more sensitive tool than entropy measures. We
specifically calculate the time scale of entry and exit of different phases
during time evolution. Initially the system exhibits collapse revival trend,
however gradually looses its ability to turn back to superfluid phase and
finally Settle to Mott insulator phase.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figure
Laser Surface Alloying of 316L Stainless Steel with Ru and Ni Mixtures
The surfaces of AISI 316L stainless steel were laser alloyed with ruthenium powder and a mixture of ruthenium and nickel powders using a cw Nd:YAG laser set at fixed operating parameters. The microstructure, elemental composition, and corrosion characteristics of the alloyed zone were analyzed using optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and corrosion potential measurements. The depth of alloyed zone was measured using the AxioVision program and found to be approximately 1.8 mm for all the alloyed specimens. Hardness profile measurements through the surface-substrate interface showed a significant increase from 160 HV for the substrate to a maximum of 247 HV for the alloyed layer. The sample laser alloyed with 80 wt% Ni-20 wt% presented the most noble corrosion potential (Ecorr) of −0.18 V and the lowest corrosion current density (icorr)
