    In this proceeding, we briefly describe the viscous hydrodynamics + hadron cascade hybrid model VISHNU for relativistic heavy ion collisions and report the current status on extracting the QGP viscosity from elliptic flow data.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, the proceedings of 7th International Workshop on Critical Point and Onset of Deconfinement, Wuhan, China, Nov. 7-11, 201

    Proton Spin in Chiral Quark Models

    Get PDF
    The spin and flavor fractions of constituent quarks in the proton are obtained from their chiral fluctuations involving Goldstone bosons. SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking suggested by the mass difference between the strange and up, down quarks is included, and this improves the agreement with the data markedly.Comment: 13 pages, 1 table, no figures, LaTex, eta & eta' parts change

    Ubiquitous Health(U-Health) system witch focuses on automated applications that can provide healthcare to human anywhere and anytime using wired and wireless mobile technologies is becoming increasingly important. This system consists of a network system to collect data and a sensor module which measures pulse, blood pressure, diabetes, blood sugar, body fat diet with management and measurement of stress etc, by both wired and wireless and further portable mobile connections. In this paper, we propose an expert system using back-propagation to support the diagnosis of citizens in U-Health system

    Geometric Phase, Hannay's Angle, and an Exact Action Variable

    Full text link
    Canonical structure of a generalized time-periodic harmonic oscillator is studied by finding the exact action variable (invariant). Hannay's angle is defined if closed curves of constant action variables return to the same curves in phase space after a time evolution. The condition for the existence of Hannay's angle turns out to be identical to that for the existence of a complete set of (quasi)periodic wave functions. Hannay's angle is calculated, and it is shown that Berry's relation of semiclassical origin on geometric phase and Hannay's angle is exact for the cases considered.Comment: Submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. (revised version

    The optical/UV excess of isolated neutron stars in the RCS model

    Full text link
    The X-ray dim isolated neutron stars (XDINSs) are peculiar pulsar-like objects, characterized by their very well Planck-like spectrum. In studying their spectral energy distributions, the optical/UV excess is a long standing problem. Recently, Kaplan et al. (2011) have measured the optical/UV excess for all seven sources, which is understandable in the resonant cyclotron scattering (RCS) model previously addressed. The RCS model calculations show that the RCS process can account for the observed optical/UV excess for most sources . The flat spectrum of RX J2143.0+0654 may due to contribution from bremsstrahlung emission of the electron system in addition to the RCS process.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, 1 table, accepted for publication in Research in Astronomy and Astrophysic

    Adder Based Residue to Binary Number Converters for (2n - 1; 2n; 2n + 1)

    Get PDF
    Copyright © 2002 IEEEBased on an algorithm derived from the new Chinese remainder theorem I, we present three new residue-to-binary converters for the residue number system (2n-1, 2n, 2n+1) designed using 2n-bit or n-bit adders with improvements on speed, area, or dynamic range compared with various previous converters. The 2n-bit adder based converter is faster and requires about half the hardware required by previous methods. For n-bit adder-based implementations, one new converter is twice as fast as the previous method using a similar amount of hardware, whereas another new converter achieves improvement in either speed, area, or dynamic range compared with previous convertersYuke Wang, Xiaoyu Song, Mostapha Aboulhamid and Hong She
