Parity Nonconservation in Odd-isotopes of Single Trapped Atomic Ions
We have estimated the size of the light-shifts due to parity nonconservation
(PNC) interactions in different isotopes of Ba+ and Ra+ ions based on the work
of Fortson [Phys. Rev. Lett. 70, 2383 (1993)]. We have used the nuclear spin
independent (NSI) amplitudes calculated earlier by us [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96,
163003 (2006); Phys. Rev. A 78, 050501(R) (2008)] and we have employed the
third order many-body perturbation theory (MBPT(3)) in this work to estimate
the nuclear spin dependent (NSD) amplitudes in these ions. Ra+ is found to be
more favourable than Ba+ for measuring both the NSI and NSD PNC observables.Comment: 5 pages, 1 tabl
Black Hole Entropy in the presence of Chern-Simons Terms
We derive a formula for the black hole entropy in theories with gravitational
Chern-Simons terms, by generalizing Wald's argument which uses the Noether
charge. It correctly reproduces the entropy of three-dimensional black holes in
the presence of Chern-Simons term, which was previously obtained via indirect
methods.Comment: v2: 12 pages, added reference
The Prediction of Mass of Z'-Boson from Mixing
B_q^0-B_^0 bar mixing offers a profound probe into the effects of new
physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, and
mass differences are considered taking the effect of both
Z-and Z' -mediated flavour-changing neutral currents in the
mixing (q = d, s). Our estimated mass of Z' boson is accessible at the
experiments LHC and B-factories in near future.Comment: 11 pages, 02 Figure
State-insensitive trapping of Rb atoms: linearly versus circularly polarized lights
We study the cancellation of differential ac Stark shifts in the 5s and 5p
states of rubidium atom using the linearly and circularly polarized lights by
calculating their dynamic polarizabilities. Matrix elements were calculated
using a relativistic coupled-cluster method at the single, double and important
valence triple excitations approximation including all possible non-linear
correlation terms. Some of the important matrix elements were further optimized
using the experimental results available for the lifetimes and static
polarizabilities of atomic states. "Magic wavelengths" are determined from the
differential Stark shifts and results for the linearly polarized light are
compared with the previously available results. Possible scope of facilitating
state-insensitive optical trapping schemes using the magic wavelengths for
circularly polarized light are discussed. Using the optimized matrix elements,
the lifetimes of the 4d and 6s states of this atom are ameliorated.Comment: 13 pages, 13 tables and 4 figure
Theoretical determination of lifetimes of metastable states in Sc III and Y III
Lifetimes of the first two metastable states in Sc^{2+} and Y^{2+} are
determined using the relativistic coupled-cluster theory. There is a
considerable interest in studying the electron correlation effects in these
ions as though their electronic configurations are similar to the neutral
alkali atoms, their structures are very different from the latter. We have made
a comparative study of the correlation trends between the above doubly ionized
systems with their corresponding neutral and singly ionized iso-electronic
systems. The lifetimes of the excited states of these ions are very important
in the field of astrophysics, especially for the study of post-main sequence
evolution of the cool giant stars.Comment: 13 pages, 1 figure and 5 table
Relativistic Coupled-Cluster Theory of Atomic Parity Nonconservation: Application to Ba
We report the result of our {\it ab initio} calculation of the parity nonconserving electric dipole transition amplitude in
based on relativistic coupled-cluster theory. Considering
single, double and partial triple excitations, we have achieved an accuracy of
less than one percent. If the accuracy of our calculation can be matched by the
proposed parity nonconservation experiment in Ba for the above
transition,then the combination of the two results would provide an independent
non accelerator test of the Standard Model of particle physics.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, Submitted to PR
Collaborative Localization Algorithms for Wireless Sensor Networks with Reduced Localization Error
Localization is an important research issue in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Though Global Positioning System (GPS) can be used to locate the position of the sensors, unfortunately it is limited to outdoor applications and is costly and power consuming. In order to find location of sensor nodes without help of GPS, collaboration among nodes is highly essential so that localization can be accomplished efficiently. In this paper, novel localization algorithms are proposed to find out possible location information of the normal nodes in a collaborative manner for an outdoor environment with help of few beacons and anchor nodes. In our localization scheme, at most three beacon nodes should be collaborated to find out the accurate location information of any normal node. Besides, analytical methods are designed to calculate and reduce the localization error using probability distribution function. Performance evaluation of our algorithm shows that there is a tradeoff between deployed number of beacon nodes and localization error, and average localization time of the network can be increased with increase in the number of normal nodes deployed over a region
Ab initio determination of the lifetime of the state f or by relativistic many-body theory
Relativistic coupled-cluster(RCC) theory has been employed to calculate the
life time of the state of single ionized lead() to an
accurac y of 3% and compared with the corresponding value obtained using second
order r elativistic many-body perturbation theory(RMBPT). This is one of the
very few ap plications of this theory to excited state properties of heavy
atomic systems. C ontributions from the different electron correlation effects

Relativistic calculations of the lifetimes and hyperfine structure constants in Zn
This work presents accurate {\it ab initio} determination of the magnetic
dipole (M1) and electric quadrupole (E2) hyperfine structure constants for the
ground and a few low-lying excited states in Zn, which is one of
the interesting systems in fundamental physics. The coupled-cluster (CC) theory
within the relativistic framework has been used here in this calculations. Long
standing demands for a relativistic and highly correlated calculations like CC
can be able to resolve the disagreements among the lifetime estimations
reported previously for a few low-lying states of Zn. The role of
different electron correlation effects in the determination of these quantities
are discussed and their contributions are presented.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure. submitted to J. Phys. B Fast Trac
