    Genuine phase diffusion of a Bose-Einstein condensate in the microcanonical ensemble: A classical field study

    Full text link
    Within the classical field model, we find that the phase of a Bose-Einstein condensate undergoes a true diffusive motion in the microcanonical ensemble, the variance of the condensate phase change between time zero and time tt growing linearly in tt. The phase diffusion coefficient obeys a simple scaling law in the double thermodynamic and Bogoliubov limit. We construct an approximate calculation of the diffusion coefficient, in fair agreement with the numerical results over the considered temperature range, and we extend this approximate calculation to the quantum field.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure

    Detecting phonons and persistent currents in toroidal Bose-Einstein condensates by means of pattern formation

    Full text link
    We theoretically investigate the dynamic properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a toroidal trap. A periodic modulation of the transverse confinement is shown to produce a density pattern due to parametric amplification of phonon pairs. By imaging the density distribution after free expansion one obtains i) a precise determination of the Bogoliubov spectrum and ii) a sensitive detection of quantized circulation in the torus. The parametric amplification is also sensitive to thermal and quantum fluctuations.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures; new figures, revised version to appear as a Rapid Communication in Physical Review

    Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia, which is also known as Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM), play a significant role in determining national economic performance. Banana chips are the most well-known product in Bandar Lampung. As the provincial capital of Lampung Province, Bandar Lampung becomes the center of trade and services sector which is a vital sector of the downstream industry activity. One of the vital aspect in the downstream of Banana chips industry is selling. This study aims to examine the effect of disruptive technology on the sale of SMEs Banana Chips products in Bandar Lampung. This study conduct the quantitative approach by using multiple regression linear analysis. The findings show that the regression model of selling aspect has 0.594 in R2 value. It means that the regression model is able to represent the real condition about 59,4%. According to the model, among the 6 (six) predictor variables, the most-influencing variable on the sale of Banana chips products is online-based promotion

    Penning collisions of laser-cooled metastable helium atoms

    Full text link
    We present experimental results on the two-body loss rates in a magneto-optical trap of metastable helium atoms. Absolute rates are measured in a systematic way for several laser detunings ranging from -5 to -30 MHz and at different intensities, by monitoring the decay of the trap fluorescence. The dependence of the two-body loss rate coefficient β\beta on the excited state (23P22^3P_2) and metastable state (23S12^3S_1) populations is also investigated. From these results we infer a rather uniform rate constant Ksp=(1±0.4)×107K_{sp}=(1{\pm}0.4)\times10^{-7} cm3^3/s.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figures, Revte

    Dynamics of two colliding Bose-Einstein condensates in an elongated magneto-static trap

    Full text link
    We study the dynamics of two interacting Bose-Einstein condensates, by numerically solving two coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations at zero temperature. We consider the case of a sudden transfer of atoms between two trapped states with different magnetic moments: the two condensates are initially created with the same density profile, but are trapped into different magnetic potentials, whose minima are vertically displaced by a distance much larger than the initial size of both condensates. Then the two condensates begin to perform collective oscillations, undergoing a complex evolution, characterized by collisions between the two condensates. We investigate the effects of their mutual interaction on the center-of-mass oscillations and on the time evolution of the aspect ratios. Our theoretical analysis provides a useful insight into the recent experimental observations by Maddaloni et al., cond-mat/0003402.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures, RevTe

    Perkembangan jaman dan globalisasi menyebabkan permasalahan dalam dunia bisnis semakin kompleks yang menuntut organisasi melakukan adaptasi untuk dapat bertahan dalam persaingan yang semakin ketat dan dapat berkembang. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah memberi analisa apakah desain organisasi pada PT. Wijaya Panca Sentosa Food perlu disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan dan tuntutan perkembangan. Jenis penelitian menggunakan penilitan kualitatif dengan metode penelitian etnografis organisasional. Penelitian dilakukan dengan cara wawancara dari beberapa narasumber, observasi, dan dokumentasi serta menggunakan analisis Five Star Model sebagai kaca mata untuk melihat keselarasan dan keterkaitan pada dimensi strategi, struktur, proses, sdm, dan reward . Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat formalisasi dalam aktifitas Perusahaan serta belum adanya penetapan visi dan misi Perusahaan. Dengan menggunakan analisis five star model, maka dapat terungkap bahwa belum menunjukan ada keselarasan pada kebijakan-kebijakan di Perusahaan sehingga perlu dilakukan penyesuaian desain organisasi atau desain ulang organisasi

    Long-lived quantum memory with nuclear atomic spins

    Full text link
    We propose to store non-classical states of light into the macroscopic collective nuclear spin (101810^{18} atoms) of a 3^3He vapor, using metastability exchange collisions. These collisions, commonly used to transfer orientation from the metastable state 23S_12^{3}S\_1 to the ground state state of 3^3He, can also transfer quantum correlations. This gives a possible experimental scheme to map a squeezed vacuum field state onto a nuclear spin state with very long storage times (hours).Comment: 4 page

    Flow graphs: interweaving dynamics and structure

    Get PDF
    The behavior of complex systems is determined not only by the topological organization of their interconnections but also by the dynamical processes taking place among their constituents. A faithful modeling of the dynamics is essential because different dynamical processes may be affected very differently by network topology. A full characterization of such systems thus requires a formalization that encompasses both aspects simultaneously, rather than relying only on the topological adjacency matrix. To achieve this, we introduce the concept of flow graphs, namely weighted networks where dynamical flows are embedded into the link weights. Flow graphs provide an integrated representation of the structure and dynamics of the system, which can then be analyzed with standard tools from network theory. Conversely, a structural network feature of our choice can also be used as the basis for the construction of a flow graph that will then encompass a dynamics biased by such a feature. We illustrate the ideas by focusing on the mathematical properties of generic linear processes on complex networks that can be represented as biased random walks and also explore their dual consensus dynamics.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

    Influence of ewe feeding systems on carcass quality of suckling lambs

    Get PDF
    Numerous studies have evidenced significant differences in the carcass and meat quality of grass-fed and concentrate-fed lambs. The main differences regard carcass fatness (Murphy et al., 1994), subcutaneous fat colour (Prache and Theriez, 1999), meat colour (Priolo et al., 2002a) and fatty acid composition (Enser et al., 1998). The use of grazing in lamb feeding favours the presence of substances in the meat which are beneficial to human health. Different methods, based on the spectrophotometric properties of fat have been proposed to verify the origin of the product (Priolo et al., 2002b). The objective of the present study is to verify if and to what extent the carcass quality of suckling lambs is affected by ewe feeding systems

    Collective oscillations of two colliding Bose-Einstein condensates

    Full text link
    Two 87Rb condensates (F=2, m_f=2 and m_f=1) are produced in highly displaced harmonic traps and the collective dynamical behaviour is investigated. The mutual interaction between the two condensates is evidenced in the center-of-mass oscillations as a frequency shift of 6.4(3)%. Calculations based on a mean-field theory well describe the observed effects of periodical collisions both on the center-of-mass motion and on the shape oscillations.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, revtex - revised versio
