Gaussian modeling and Schmidt modes of SPDS biphoton states

A double-Gaussian model and the Schmidt modes are found for the biphoton wave function characterizing spontaneous parametric down-conversion with the degenerate collinear phase-matching of the type I and with a pulsed pump. The obtained results are valid for all durations of the pump pulses, short, long and intermediately long

Pion Polarizability in the NJL model and Possibilities of its Experimental Studies in Coulomb Nuclear Scattering

The charge pion polarizability is calculated in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, where the quark loops (in the mean field approximation) and the meson loops (in the $1/N_c$ approximation) are taken into account. We show that quark loop contribution dominates, because the meson loops strongly conceal each other. The sigma-pole contribution $(m^2_\sigma-t)^{-1}$ plays the main role and contains strong t-dependence of the effective pion polarizability at the region $|t|\geq 4M_\pi^2$. Possibilities of experimental test of this sigma-pole effect in the reaction of Coulomb Nuclear Scattering are estimated for the COMPASS experiment.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figure

Hirota equation as an example of integrable symplectic map

The hamiltonian formalism is developed for the sine-Gordon model on the space-time light-like lattice, first introduced by Hirota. The evolution operator is explicitely constructed in the quantum variant of the model, the integrability of the corresponding classical finite-dimensional system is established.Comment: 10 pages, LaTe

Singularities inside non-Abelian black holes

Singularities inside static spherically symmetric black holes in the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills and Einstein-Yang-Mills-dilaton theories are investigated. Analytical formulas are presented describing oscillatory and power law metric behavior near spacelike singularities in generic solutions.Comment: REVTeX, 9 pages, 2 EPS figures, uses epsf.st

Anomalous transport in normal-superconducting and ferromagnetic-superconducting nanostructures

We have calculated the temperature dependence of the conductance variation ($\delta S(T)$) of mesoscopic superconductor normal metal(S/N) structures, in the diffusive regime, analysing both weak and strong proximity effects. We show that in the case of a weak proximity effect there are two peaks in the dependence of $\delta S(T)$ on temperature. One of them (known from previous studies) corresponds to a temperature $T_1$ of order of the Thouless energy ($\epsilon_{Th}$), and another, newly predicted maximum, occurs at a temperature $T_2$ where the energy gap in the superconductor $\Delta(T_2)$ is of order $\epsilon_{Th}$. In the limit $L_{\phi}<L$ the temperature $T_1$ is determined by $D \hbar /L^2_{\phi}$ ($L_{\phi}$ is the phase breaking length), and not $\epsilon_{Th}$. We have also calculated the voltage dependence $\delta S(V)$ for a S/F structure (F is a ferromagnet) and predict non-monotonic behaviour at voltages of order the Zeeman splitting.Comment: 6 figures.
