Unusual light spectra from a two-level atom in squeezed vacuum
We investigate the interaction of an atom with a multi-channel squeezed
vacuum. It turns out that the light coming out in a particular channel can have
anomalous spectral properties, among them asymmetry of the spectrum, absence of
the central peak as well as central hole burning for particular parameters. As
an example plane-wave squeezing is considered. In this case the above phenomena
can occur for the light spectra in certain directions. In the total spectrum
these phenomena are washed out.Comment: 16 pages, LaTeX, 3 figures (included via epsf
Shock tunnel studies of scramjet phenomena, supplement 6
Reports by the staff of the University of Queensland on various research studies related to the advancement of scramjet technology are presented. These reports document the tests conducted in the reflected shock tunnel T4 and supporting research facilities that have been used to study the injection, mixing, and combustion of hydrogen fuel in generic scramjets at flow conditions typical of hypersonic flight. In addition, topics include the development of instrumentation and measurement technology, such as combustor wall shear and stream composition in pulse facilities, and numerical studies and analyses of the scramjet combustor process and the test facility operation
Ecological factors controlling biodiversity in the British countryside (ECOFACT). Module 6 - The causes of change in biodiversity. Interim report
Spin transitions induced by a magnetic field in quantum dot molecules
We present a theoretical study of magnetic field driven spin transitions of
electrons in coupled lateral quantum dot molecules. A detailed numerical study
of spin phases of artificial molecules composed of two laterally coupled
quantum dots with N=8 electrons is presented as a function of magnetic field,
Zeeman energy, and the detuning using real space Hartree-Fock Configuration
Interaction (HF-CI) technique. A microscopic picture of quantum Hall
ferromagnetic phases corresponding to zero and full spin polarization at
filling factors and , and ferrimagnetic phases resulting from
coupling of the two dots, is presented.Comment: 12 pages, 18 figure
