Classification of Arbitrary Multipartite Entangled States under Local Unitary Equivalence
We propose a practical method for finding the canonical forms of arbitrary
dimensional multipartite entangled states, either pure or mixed. By extending
the technique developed in one of our recent works, the canonical forms for the
mixed -partite entangled states are constructed where they have inherited
local unitary symmetries from their corresponding pure state
counterparts. A systematic scheme to express the local symmetries of the
canonical form is also presented, which provides a feasible way of verifying
the local unitary equivalence for two multipartite entangled states.Comment: 22 pages; published in J. Phys. A: Math. Theo
LLAGN and jet-scaling probed with the EVN
Accreting black holes on all mass scales (from stellar to supermassive)
appear to follow a nonlinear relation between X-ray luminosity, radio
luminosity and BH mass, indicating that similar physical processes drive the
central engines in X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei (AGN). However, in
recent years an increasing number of BH systems have been identified that do
not fit into this scheme. These outliers may be the key to understand how BH
systems are powered by accretion. Here we present results from EVN observations
of a sample of low-luminosity AGN (LLAGN) with known mass that have unusually
high radio powers when compared with their X-ray luminosity.Comment: Presented at the 11th EVN Symposium, Bordeaux, France, 2012 October

Nuclear Three-body Force Effect on a Kaon Condensate in Neutron Star Matter
We explore the effects of a microscopic nuclear three-body force on the
threshold baryon density for kaon condensation in chemical equilibrium neutron
star matter and on the composition of the kaon condensed phase in the framework
of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach. Our results show that the nuclear
three-body force affects strongly the high-density behavior of nuclear symmetry
energy and consequently reduces considerably the critical density for kaon
condensation provided that the proton strangeness content is not very large.
The dependence of the threshold density on the symmetry energy becomes weaker
as the proton strangeness content increases. The kaon condensed phase of
neutron star matter turns out to be proton-rich instead of neutron-rich. The
three-body force has an important influence on the composition of the kaon
condensed phase. Inclusion of the three-body force contribution in the nuclear
symmetry energy results in a significant reduction of the proton and kaon
fractions in the kaon condensed phase which is more proton-rich in the case of
no three-body force. Our results are compared to other theoretical predictions
by adopting different models for the nuclear symmetry energy. The possible
implications of our results for the neutron star structure are also briefly
discussed.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure
Repeating head-on collisions in an optical trap and the evaluation of spin-dependent interactions among neutral particles
A dynamic process of repeating collisions of a pair of trapped neutral
particles with weak spin-dependent interaction is designed and studied. Related
theoretical derivation and numerical calculation have been performed to study
the inherent coordinate-spin and momentum-spin correlation. Due to the
repeating collisions the effect of the weak interaction can be accumulated and
enlarged, and therefore can be eventually detected. Numerical results suggest
that the Cr-Cr interaction, which has not yet been completely clear, could be
thereby determined. The design can be in general used to determine various
interactions among neutral atoms and molecules, in particular for the
determination of very weak forces.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figure
Hot Nuclear Matter Equation of State with a Three-body Force
The finite temperature Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach is extended by
introducing a microscopic three-body force. In the framework of the extended
model, the equation of state of hot asymmetric nuclear matter and its isospin
dependence have been investigated. The critical temperature of liquid-gas phase
transition for symmetric nuclear matter has been calculated and compared with
other predictions. It turns out that the three-body force gives a repulsive
contribution to the equation of state which is stronger at higher density and
as a consequence reduces the critical temperature of liquid-gas phase
transition. The calculated energy per nucleon of hot asymmetric nuclear matter
is shown to satisfy a simple quadratic dependence on asymmetric parameter
as in the zero-temperature case. The symmetry energy and its density
dependence have been obtained and discussed. Our results show that the
three-body force affects strongly the high-density behavior of the symmetry
energy and makes the symmetry energy more sensitive to the variation of
temperature. The temperature dependence and the isospin dependence of other
physical quantities, such as the proton and neutron single particle potentials
and effective masses are also studied. Due to the additional repulsion produced
by the three-body force contribution, the proton and neutron single particle
potentials are correspondingly enhanced as similar to the zero-temperature
case.Comment: 16 pages, 8 figure
Isospin effect on nuclear stopping in intermediate energy Heavy Ion Collisions
By using the Isospin Dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamics Model (IQMD), we
study the dependence of nuclear stopping Q_{ZZ}/A and R in intermediate energy
heavy ion collisions on system size, initial N/Z, isospin symmetry potential
and the medium correction of two-body cross sections. We find the effect of
initial N/Z ratio, isospin symmetry potential on stopping is weak. The
excitation function of Q_{ZZ}/A and R depends on the form of medium correction
of two-body cross sections, the equation of state of nuclear matter (EOS). Our
results show the behavior of the excitation function of Q_{ZZ}/A and R can
provide clearer information of the isospin dependence of the medium correction
of two-body cross sections.Comment: 3 pages including 4 figure
