A New Solution of the Yang-Baxter Equation Related to the Adjoint Representation of
A new solution of the Yang-Baxter equation, that is related to the adjoint
representation of the quantum enveloping algebra , is obtained by
fusion formulas from a non-standard solution.Comment: 16 pages (Latex), Preprint BIHEP-TH-93-3
Universal decay law in charged-particle emission and exotic cluster radioactivity
A linear universal decay formula is presented starting from the microscopic
mechanism of the charged-particle emission. It relates the half-lives of
monopole radioactive decays with the -values of the outgoing particles as
well as the masses and charges of the nuclei involved in the decay. This
relation is found to be a generalization of the Geiger-Nuttall law in
radioactivity and explains well all known cluster decays. Predictions on the
most likely emissions of various clusters are presented.Comment: 2 figure
Quantum coherence control of solid-state charge qubit by means of a suboptimal feedback algorithm
The quantum coherence control of a solid-state charge qubit is studied by
using a suboptimal continuous feedback algorithm within the Bayesian feedback
scheme. For the coherent Rabi oscillation, the present algorithm suggests a
simple bang-bang control protocol, in which the control parameter is modulated
between two values. For the coherence protection of idle state, the present
approach is applicable to arbitrary states, including those lying on the
equator of the Bloch sphere which are out of control in the previous Markovian
feedback scheme.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
Calculation of the spectrum of 12Li by using the multistep shell model method in the complex energy plane
The unbound nucleus Li is evaluated by using the multistep shell model
in the complex energy plane assuming that the spectrum is determined by the
motion of three neutrons outside the Li core. It is found that the ground
state of this system consists of an antibound state and that only this
and a and a excited states are physically meaningful
resonances.Comment: 9 pages, 5 tables, 7 figures, printer-friendly versio
Entanglement Switch for Dipole Arrays
We propose a new entanglement switch of qubits consisting of electric
dipoles, oriented along or against an external electric field and coupled by
the electric dipole-dipole interaction. The pairwise entanglement can be tuned
and controlled by the ratio of the Rabi frequency and the dipole-dipole
coupling strength. Tuning the entanglement can be achieved for one, two and
three-dimensional arrangements of the qubits. The feasibility of building such
an entanglement switch is also discussed.Comment: 6 pages and 4 figures. To be published on Journal of Chemical Physic
DCO, DCN and ND reveal three different deuteration regimes in the disk around the Herbig Ae star HD163296
The formation pathways of deuterated species trace different regions of
protoplanetary disks and may shed light into their physical structure. We aim
to constrain the radial extent of main deuterated species; we are particularly
interested in spatially characterizing the high and low temperature pathways
for enhancing deuteration of these species. We observed the disk surrounding
the Herbig Ae star HD 163296 using ALMA in Band 6 and obtained resolved
spectral imaging data of DCO (=3-2), DCN (=3-2) and ND
(=3-2). We model the radial emission profiles of DCO, DCN and
ND, assuming their emission is optically thin, using a parametric model
of their abundances and radial excitation temperature estimates. DCO can be
described by a three-region model, with constant-abundance rings centered at 70
AU, 150 AU and 260 AU. The DCN radial profile peaks at about ~60 AU and
ND is seen in a ring at ~160 AU. Simple models of both molecules using
constant abundances reproduce the data. Assuming reasonable average excitation
temperatures for the whole disk, their disk-averaged column densities (and
deuterium fractionation ratios) are 1.6-2.6 cm
(0.04-0.07), 2.9-5.2 cm (0.02) and 1.6-2.5 cm (0.34-0.45) for DCO, DCN and ND, respectively.
Our simple best-fit models show a correlation between the radial location of
the first two rings in DCO and the DCN and ND abundance
distributions that can be interpreted as the high and low temperature
deuteration pathways regimes. The origin of the third DCO ring at 260 AU is
unknown but may be due to a local decrease of ultraviolet opacity allowing the
photodesorption of CO or due to thermal desorption of CO as a consequence of
radial drift and settlement of dust grains
Dynamical Axion Field in Topological Magnetic Insulators
Axions are very light, very weakly interacting particles postulated more than
30 years ago in the context of the Standard Model of particle physics. Their
existence could explain the missing dark matter of the universe. However,
despite intensive searches, they have yet to be detected. In this work, we show
that magnetic fluctuations of topological insulators couple to the
electromagnetic fields exactly like the axions, and propose several experiments
to detect this dynamical axion field. In particular, we show that the axion
coupling enables a nonlinear modulation of the electromagnetic field, leading
to attenuated total reflection. We propose a novel optical modulators device
based on this principle.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Abrupt changes in alpha decay systematics as a manifestation of collective nuclear modes
An abrupt change in decay systematics around the N=126 neutron shell
closure is discussed. It is explained as a sudden hindrance of the clustering
of the nucleons that eventually form the particle. This is because the
clustering induced by the pairing mode acting upon the four nucleons is
inhibited if the configuration space does not allow a proper manifestation of
the pairing collectivity.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. C, a few new references
