Charge dependence of
We calculate the isospin symmetry violating effects to the reactions
and arising from the different
hadron masses and from the Coulomb interaction between the positive pion and
the deuteron. These effects are large enough in the cross section and analyzing
power that they should be taken into account in comparisons of accurate
experiments in different charge channels.Comment: 10 pages plus 2 figures, submitted to Phys. Lett.
Ground-state geometric quantum computing in superconducting systems
We present a theoretical proposal for the implementation of geometric quantum
computing based on a Hamiltonian which has a doubly degenerate ground state.
Thus the system which is steered adiabatically, remains in the ground-state.
The proposed physical implementation relies on a superconducting circuit
composed of three SQUIDs and two superconducting islands with the charge states
encoding the logical states. We obtain a universal set of single-qubit gates
and implement a non-trivial two-qubit gate exploiting the mutual inductance
between two neighboring circuits, allowing us to realize a fully geometric
ground-state quantum computing. The introduced paradigm for the implementation
of geometric quantum computing is expected to be robust against environmental
effects.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures. Final version with notation and typos correcte
Parity nonconserving two-pion exchange in elastic proton-proton scattering
Parity nonconserving two-pion exchange in elastic pp scattering is
investigated in the presence of phenomenological strong distortions in various
models. Parity violation is included in the nucleon-pion vertex considering NN
and N Delta(1232) intermediate states in box and crossed box diagrams. Using
the derived parity nonconserving two-pion exchange potential we calculate the
longitudinal analyzing power A_L in elastic scattering. The predicted
effect is of the same order as vector meson exchanges.Comment: 13 pages, 8 eps figure
Optimal multiqubit operations for Josephson charge qubits
We introduce a method for finding the required control parameters for a
quantum computer that yields the desired quantum algorithm without invoking
elementary gates. We concentrate on the Josephson charge-qubit model, but the
scenario is readily extended to other physical realizations. Our strategy is to
numerically find any desired double- or triple-qubit gate. The motivation is
the need to significantly accelerate quantum algorithms in order to fight
decoherence.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Positive pion absorption on 3He using modern trinucleon wave functions
We study pion absorption on 3He employing trinucleon wave functions
calculated from modern realistic NN interactions (Paris, CD Bonn). Even though
the use of the new wave functions leads to a significant improvement over older
calculations with regard to both cross section and polarization data, there are
hints that polarization data with quasifree kinematics cannot be described by
just two-nucleon absorption mechanisms.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figure
Evidence of Cooper pair pumping with combined flux and voltage control
We have experimentally demonstrated pumping of Cooper pairs in a
single-island mesoscopic structure. The island was connected to leads through
SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) loops. Synchronized flux
and voltage signals were applied whereby the Josephson energies of the SQUIDs
and the gate charge were tuned adiabatically. From the current-voltage
characteristics one can see that the pumped current increases in 1e steps which
is due to quasiparticle poisoning on the measurement time scale, but we argue
that the transport of charge is due to Cooper pairs.Comment: 4 page
Ear Emergence of Different Grass Species under Finnish Growing Conditions
Timothy is the most commonly cultivated grass species in Finland. Swards cultivated for silage of hay are of pure timothy or timothy is the dominant species of the mixture. Successful timing of harvesting of the primary growth is very critical in Northern latitudes where the stand develops very rapidly at daylengths of above 18 hours with a daily mean temperature close to 20 °C. The primary growth has to be harvested within a very short period to obtain a yield of high and uniform quality. Short harvesting periods require high capacity harvest machinery which lead to high costs. If it would be possible to prolong the harvesting over a longer period of time, it would decrease the risk of bad weather conditions and reduce machine costs through better utilization of harvesting capacity. Sowing different grass species makes it possible to extend the harvesting period. The aim of this study was to investigate timing of ear emergence of different grass species in comparison with timothy. The suitable harvesting time for silage in Finland is closely related to ear emergence of the stand
Exact solutions of the isoholonomic problem and the optimal control problem in holonomic quantum computation
The isoholonomic problem in a homogeneous bundle is formulated and solved
exactly. The problem takes a form of a boundary value problem of a variational
equation. The solution is applied to the optimal control problem in holonomic
quantum computer. We provide a prescription to construct an optimal controller
for an arbitrary unitary gate and apply it to a -dimensional unitary gate
which operates on an -dimensional Hilbert space with . Our
construction is applied to several important unitary gates such as the Hadamard
gate, the CNOT gate, and the two-qubit discrete Fourier transformation gate.
Controllers for these gates are explicitly constructed.Comment: 19 pages, no figures, LaTeX2
