D-outcome measurement for a nonlocality test

For the purpose of the nonlocality test, we propose a general correlation observable of two parties by utilizing local $d$-outcome measurements with SU($d$) transformations and classical communications. Generic symmetries of the SU($d$) transformations and correlation observables are found for the test of nonlocality. It is shown that these symmetries dramatically reduce the number of numerical variables, which is important for numerical analysis of nonlocality. A linear combination of the correlation observables, which is reduced to the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) Bell's inequality for two outcome measurements, is led to the Collins-Gisin-Linden-Massar-Popescu (CGLMP) nonlocality test for $d$-outcome measurement. As a system to be tested for its nonlocality, we investigate a continuous-variable (CV) entangled state with $d$ measurement outcomes. It allows the comparison of nonlocality based on different numbers of measurement outcomes on one physical system. In our example of the CV state, we find that a pure entangled state of any degree violates Bell's inequality for $d(\ge 2)$ measurement outcomes when the observables are of SU($d$) transformations.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure

Mean Field Theoretical Structure of He and Be Isotopes

The structures of He and Be even-even isotopes are investigated using an axially symmetric Hartree-Fock approach with a Skyrme-IIIls mean field potential. In these simple HF calculations, He and Be isotopes appear to be prolate in their ground states and Be isotopes have oblate shape isomeric states. It is also shown that there exists a level crossing when the nuclear shape changes from the prolate state to the oblate state. The single neutron levels of Be isotopes exhibit a neutron magic number 6 instead of 8 and show that the level inversion between 1/2- and 1/2+ levels occurs only for a largely deformed isotope. Protons are bound stronger in the isotope with more neutrons while neutron levels are somewhat insensitive to the number of neutrons and thus the nuclear size and also the neutron skin become larger as the neutron number increases. In these simple calculations with Skyrme-IIIls interaction no system with a clear indication of neutron halo was found among He and Be isotopes. Instead of it we have found 8He+2n, 2n+8He+2n, and 16Be+2n like chain structures with clusters of two correlated neutrons. It is also shown that 8He and 14Be in their ground states are below the neutron drip line in which all nucleons are bound with negative energy and that 16Be in its ground state is beyond the neutron drip line with two neutrons in positive energy levels.Comment: CM energy correction, 1 figure and more discussions adde

Entanglement transfer from continuous variables to qubits

We show that two qubits can be entangled by local interactions with an entangled two-mode continuous variable state. This is illustrated by the evolution of two two-level atoms interacting with a two-mode squeezed state. Two modes of the squeezed field are injected respectively into two spatially separate cavities and the atoms are then sent into the cavities to resonantly interact with the cavity field. We find that the atoms may be entangled even by a two-mode squeezed state which has been decohered while penetrating into the cavity.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

Land use survey and mapping and water resources investigation in Korea

The author has identified the following significant results. Land use imagery is applicable to land use classification for small scale land use mapping less than 1:250,000. Land use mapping by satellite is more efficient and more cost-effective than land use mapping from conventional medium altitude aerial photographs. Six categories of level 1 land use classification are recognizable from MSS imagery. A hydrogeomorphological study of the Han River basin indicates that band 7 is useful for recognizing the soil and the weathering part of bed rock. The morphological change of the main river is accurately recognized and the drainage system in the area observed is easily classified because of the more or less simple rock type. Although the direct hydrological characteristics are not obtained from the MSS imagery, the indirect information such as the permeability of the soil and the vegetation cover, is helpful in interpreting the hydrological aspects
