Synchronization in the BCS Pairing Dynamics as a Critical Phenomenon

Fermi gas with time-dependent pairing interaction hosts several different dynamical states. Coupling between the collective BCS pairing mode and individual Cooper pair states can make the latter either synchronize or dephase. We describe transition from phase-locked undamped oscillations to Landau-damped dephased oscillations in the collisionless, dissipationless regime as a function of coupling strength. In the dephased regime, we find a second transition at which the long-time asymptotic pairing amplitude vanishes. Using a combination of numerical and analytical methods we establish a continuous (type II) character of both transitions

Even and odd symplectic and K\"ahlerian structures on projective superspaces

Supergeneralization of \DC P(N) provided by even and odd K\"ahlerian structures from Hamiltonian reduction are construct.Operator $\Delta$ which used in Batalin-- Vilkovisky quantization formalism and mechanics which are bi-Hamiltonian under corresponding even and odd Poisson brackets are considered.Comment: 19 page

rho(omega)-> pi^0 pi^0 gamma, rho(omega) -> eta pi^0 gamma decays in the local quark Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model

The branching ratios and photon spectra of the rare processes rho(omega)-> pi^0 pi^0 gamma, rho(omega) -> eta pi^0 gamma are calculated in the framework of the standard local quark Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model. Three types of diagrams are considered: the quark box and the pole diagrams with scalar (sigma,a_0(980)) and vector (rho,omega) mesons. The obtained estimations for the widths of the processes rho(omega)-> pi^0 pi^0 gamma are in satisfactory agreement with existing experimental data. Predictions are made for the widths of the processes rho(omega) -> eta pi^0 gamma.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure

Energy Resolved Supercurrent between two superconductors

In this paper I study the energy resolved supercurrent of a junction consisting of a dirty normal metal between two superconductors. I also consider a cross geometry with two additional arms connecting the above mentioned junction with two normal reservoirs at equal and opposite voltages. The dependence of the supercurrent between the two superconductors on the applied voltages is studied.Comment: revtex, 7 pages, 8 figures. accepted by Phys. Rev.

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

Carrier drift velocity and edge magnetoplasmons in graphene

We investigate electron dynamics at the graphene edge by studying the propagation of collective edge magnetoplasmon (EMP) excitations. By timing the travel of narrow wave-packets on picosecond time scales around exfoliated samples, we find chiral propagation with low attenuation at a velocity which is quantized on Hall plateaus. We extract the carrier drift contribution from the EMP propagation and find it to be slightly less than the Fermi velocity, as expected for an abrupt edge. We also extract the characteristic length for Coulomb interaction at the edge and find it to be smaller than for soft, depletion edge systems.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures of main text and 6 pages, 6 figures of supplemental materia
