    Asymptotic Bound-state Model for Feshbach Resonances

    Get PDF
    We present an Asymptotic Bound-state Model which can be used to accurately describe all Feshbach resonance positions and widths in a two-body system. With this model we determine the coupled bound states of a particular two-body system. The model is based on analytic properties of the two-body Hamiltonian, and on asymptotic properties of uncoupled bound states in the interaction potentials. In its most simple version, the only necessary parameters are the least bound state energies and actual potentials are not used. The complexity of the model can be stepwise increased by introducing threshold effects, multiple vibrational levels and additional potential parameters. The model is extensively tested on the 6Li-40K system and additional calculations on the 40K-87Rb system are presented.Comment: 13 pages, 8 figure

    Predicting scattering properties of ultracold atoms: adiabatic accumulated phase method and mass scaling

    Get PDF
    Ultracold atoms are increasingly used for high precision experiments that can be utilized to extract accurate scattering properties. This calls for a stronger need to improve on the accuracy of interatomic potentials, and in particular the usually rather inaccurate inner-range potentials. A boundary condition for this inner range can be conveniently given via the accumulated phase method. However, in this approach one should satisfy two conditions, which are in principle conflicting, and the validity of these approximations comes under stress when higher precision is required. We show that a better compromise between the two is possible by allowing for an adiabatic change of the hyperfine mixing of singlet and triplet states for interatomic distances smaller than the separation radius. A mass scaling approach to relate accumulated phase parameters in a combined analysis of isotopically related atom pairs is described in detail and its accuracy is estimated, taking into account both Born-Oppenheimer and WKB breakdown. We demonstrate how numbers of singlet and triplet bound states follow from the mass scaling.Comment: 14 pages, 9 figure

    On the Resolution of Singularities of Multiple Mellin-Barnes Integrals

    Full text link
    One of the two existing strategies of resolving singularities of multifold Mellin-Barnes integrals in the dimensional regularization parameter, or a parameter of the analytic regularization, is formulated in a modified form. The corresponding algorithm is implemented as a Mathematica code MBresolve.mComment: LaTeX, 10 page

    Annihilation poles of a Smirnov-type integral formula for solutions to quantum Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov equation

    Get PDF
    We consider the recently obtained integral representation of quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation of level 0. We obtain the condition for the integral kernel such that these solutions satisfy three axioms for form factor \'{a} la Smirnov. We discuss the relation between this integral representation and the form factor of XXZ spin chain.Comment: 14 pages, latex, no figures

    Form factors of the XXZ model and the affine quantum group symmetry

    Full text link
    We present new expressions of form factors of the XXZ model which satisfy Smirnov's three axioms. These new form factors are obtained by acting the affine quantum group Uq(sl2^)U_q (\hat{\frak s \frak l_2}) to the known ones obtained in our previous works. We also find the relations among all the new and known form factors, i.e., all other form factors can be expressed as kind of descendents of a special one.Comment: 11 pages, latex; Some explanation is adde

    Extended Seismic Source Characterisation using Linear Programming Inversion in a Dual Formulation

    Get PDF
    A linear programming (LP) inversion method in a dual formulation was applied to reconstruct the kinematics of finite seismic ruptures. In a general setting, this approach can yield results from several data sets: strong ground motion, teleseismic waveforms or/and geodesic data (static deformation). The dual formulation involves the transformation of a normal solution space into an equivalent but reduced space: the dual space. The practical result of this transformation is a simpler inversion problem that is therefore faster to resolve, more stable and more robust. The developed algorithm includes a forward problem that calculates Green’s functions using a finite differences method with a 3D structure model. To evaluate the performance of this algorithm, we applied it to the reconstitution of a realistic slip distribution model from a data set synthesised using this model, i.e., the solution of the forward problem. Several other standard inversion approaches were applied to the same synthetic data for comparison

    The potential of the ground state of NaRb

    Full text link
    The X1Σ+^{1}\Sigma ^{+} state of NaRb was studied by Fourier transform spectroscopy. An accurate potential energy curve was derived from more than 8800 transitions in isotopomers 23^{23}Na85^{85}Rb and 23^{23}Na87^{87}Rb. This potential reproduces the experimental observations within their uncertainties of 0.003 \rcm to 0.007 \rcm. The outer classical turning point of the last observed energy level (v=76v''=76, J=27J''=27) lies at 12.4\approx 12.4 \AA, leading to a energy of 4.5 \rcm below the ground state asymptote.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures and 2 table

    Energetic Consistency and Momentum Conservation in the Gyrokinetic Description of Tokamak Plasmas

    Full text link
    Gyrokinetic field theory is addressed in the context of a general Hamiltonian. The background magnetic geometry is static and axisymmetric, and all dependence of the Lagrangian upon dynamical variables is in the Hamiltonian or in free field terms. Equations for the fields are given by functional derivatives. The symmetry through the Hamiltonian with time and toroidal angle invariance of the geometry lead to energy and toroidal momentum conservation. In various levels of ordering against fluctuation amplitude, energetic consistency is exact. The role of this in underpinning of conservation laws is emphasised. Local transport equations for the vorticity, toroidal momentum, and energy are derived. In particular, the momentum equation is shown for any form of Hamiltonian to be well behaved and to relax to its magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) form when long wavelength approximations are taken in the Hamiltonian. Several currently used forms, those which form the basis of most global simulations, are shown to be well defined within the gyrokinetic field theory and energetic consistency.Comment: RevTeX 4, 47 pages, no figures, revised version updated following referee comments (discussion more strictly correct/consistent, 4 references added, results unchanged as they depend on consistency of the theory), resubmitted to Physics of Plasma
