Nuclear halo and the coherent nuclear interaction
The unusual structure of Li11, the first halo nucleus found, is analyzed by
the Preparata model of nuclear structure. By applying Coherent Nucleus Theory,
we obtain an interaction potential for the halo-neutrons that rightly
reproduces the fundamental state of the system.Comment: 9 pages Submitted to International Journal of Modern Physics E

Coherent population trapping in two-electron three-level systems with aligned spins
The possibility of coherent population trapping in two electron states with
aligned spins (ortho-system) is evidenced. From the analysis of a three-level
atomic system containing two electrons, and driven by the two laser fields
needed for coherent population trapping, a conceptually new kind of
two-electron dark state appears. The properties of this trapping are studied
and are physically interpreted in terms of a dark hole, instead of a dark
two-electron state. This technique, among many other applications, offers the
possibility of measuring, with subnatural resolution, some superposition-state
matrix-elements of the electron-electron correlation that due to their time
dependent nature are inaccesible by standard measuring procedures.Comment: 10 pages and 4 figure
Coherent Population Trapping of Electron Spins in a Semiconductor
In high-purity n-type GaAs under strong magnetic field, we are able to
isolate a lambda system composed of two Zeeman states of neutral-donor bound
electrons and the lowest Zeeman state of bound excitons. When the two-photon
detuning of this system is zero, we observe a pronounced dip in the
excited-state photoluminescence indicating the creation of the coherent
population-trapped state. Our data are consistent with a steady-state
three-level density-matrix model. The observation of coherent population
trapping in GaAs indicates that this and similar semiconductor systems could be
used for various EIT-type experiments.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures replaced 6/25/2007 with PRL versio
New Forms of Deuteron Equations and Wave Function Representations
A recently developed helicity basis for nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering is
applied to th e deuteron bound state. Here the total spin of the deuteron is
treated in such a helicity representation. For the bound state, two sets of two
coupled eigenvalue equations are developed, where the amplitudes depend on two
and one variable, respectively. Numerical illustrations based on the realistic
Bonn-B NN potential are given. In addition, an `operator form' of the deuteron
wave function is presented, and several momentum dependent spin densities are
derived and shown, in which the angular dependence is given analytically.Comment: 19 pages (Revtex), 9 fig
Coherent population trapping in quantized light field
A full quantum treatment of coherent population trapping (CPT) is given for a
system of resonantly coupled atoms and electromagnetic field. We develop a
regular analytical method of the construction of generalized dark states (GDS).
It turns out that GDS do exist for all optical transitions ,
including bright transitions and with a
half-integer, for which the CPT effect is absent in a classical field. We
propose an idea to use an optically thick medium with a transition
with a half-integer as a ''quantum filter'', which transmits only
a quantum light.Comment: revtex4, twocolumn, 6 pages, including 1 figur
Coherent QED, Giant Resonances and Pairs in High Energy Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions
We show that the coherent oscillations of the e.m. field induced by the
collective quantum fluctuations of the nuclear matter field associated with the
giant resonances, with frequencies MeV, give
rise to a significant pair production in high energy Heavy Ion
collisions. The approximate parameterless calculation of such yield is in good
agreement with recent experimental observations.Comment: 27 pages, 13 figure
Cascade coherence transfer and magneto-optical resonances at 455 nm excitation of Cesium
We present and experimental and theoretical study of nonlinear
magneto-optical resonances observed in the fluorescence to the ground state
from the 7P_{3/2} state of cesium, which was populated directly by laser
radiation at 455 nm, and from the 6P_{1/2} and 6P_{3/2} states, which were
populated via cascade transitions that started from the 7P_{3/2} state and
passed through various intermediate states. The laser-induced fluorescence
(LIF) was observed as the magnetic field was scanned through zero. Signals were
recorded for the two orthogonal, linearly polarized components of the LIF. We
compared the measured signals with the results of calculations from a model
that was based on the optical Bloch equations and averaged over the Doppler
profile. This model was adapted from a model that had been developed for D_1
and D_2 excitation of alkali metal atoms. The calculations agree quite well
with the measurements, especially when taking into account the fact that some
experimental parameters were only estimated in the model.Comment: small changes to text of previous version; 12 pages, 8 figure
Experimental implementation of a four-level N-type scheme for the observation of Electromagnetically Induced Transparency
A nondegenerate four-level N-type scheme was experimentally implemented to
observe electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) at the Rb D
line. Radiations of two independent external-cavity semiconductor lasers were
used in the experiment, the current of one of them being modulated at a
frequency equal to the hyperfine-splitting frequency of the excited 5P
level. In this case, apart from the main EIT dip corresponding to the
two-photon Raman resonance in a three-level -scheme, additional dips
detuned from the main dip by a frequency equal to the frequency of the HF
generator were observed in the absorption spectrum. These dips were due to an
increase in the medium transparency at frequencies corresponding to the
three-photon Raman resonances in four-level N-type schemes. The resonance
shapes are analyzed as functions of generator frequency and magnetic field.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figure
High contrast D line electromagnetically induced transparency in nanometric-thin rubidium vapor cell
Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) on atomic D line of
rubidium is studied using a nanometric-thin cell with atomic vapor column
length in the range of L= 400 - 800 nm. It is shown that the reduction of the
cell thickness by 4 orders as compared with an ordinary cm-size cell still
allows to form an EIT resonance for ( nm) with the
contrast of up to 40%. Remarkable distinctions of EIT formation in
nanometric-thin and ordinary cells are demonstrated. Despite the Dicke effect
of strong spectral narrowing and increase of the absorption for , EIT resonance is observed both in the absorption and the fluorescence
spectra for relatively low intensity of the coupling laser. Well resolved
splitting of the EIT resonance in moderate magnetic field for
can be used for magnetometry with nanometric spatial resolution. The presented
theoretical model well describes the observed results.Comment: Submitted to Applied Physics B: Lasers and Optics, 9 pages, 10
