Right eigenvalue equation in quaternionic quantum mechanics
We study the right eigenvalue equation for quaternionic and complex linear
matrix operators defined in n-dimensional quaternionic vector spaces. For
quaternionic linear operators the eigenvalue spectrum consists of n complex
values. For these operators we give a necessary and sufficient condition for
the diagonalization of their quaternionic matrix representations. Our
discussion is also extended to complex linear operators, whose spectrum is
characterized by 2n complex eigenvalues. We show that a consistent analysis of
the eigenvalue problem for complex linear operators requires the choice of a
complex geometry in defining inner products. Finally, we introduce some
examples of the left eigenvalue equations and highlight the main difficulties
in their solution.Comment: 24 pages, AMS-Te
Quaternionic Electroweak Theory
We explicitly develop a quaternionic version of the electroweak theory, based
on the local gauge group . The need of a complex
projection for our Lagrangian and the physical significance of the anomalous
scalar solutions are also discussed.Comment: 12 pages, Revtex, submitted to J. Phys.
A Variational Fock-Space Treatment of Quarkonium
The variational method and the Hamiltonian formalism of QCD are used to
derive relativistic, momentum space integral equations for a quark-antiquark
system with an arbitrary number of gluons present. As a first step, the
resulting infinite chain of coupled equations is solved in the nonrelativistic
limit by an approximate decoupling method. Comparison with experiment allows us
to fix the quark mass and coupling constant, allowing for the calculation of
the spectra of massive systems such as charmonium and bottomonium. Studying the
results with and without the nonAbelian terms, we find that the presence of the
nonAbelian factors yields better agreement with the experimental spectra.Comment: TEX, no figure
Quaternionic Electroweak Theory and CKM Matrix
We find in our quaternionic version of the electroweak theory an apparently
hopeless problem: In going from complex to quaternions, the calculation of the
real-valued parameters of the CKM matrix drastically changes. We aim to explain
this quaternionic puzzle.Comment: 8, Revtex, Int. J. Theor. Phys. (to be published
Galactic Archaeology with TESS: Prospects for Testing the Star Formation History in the Solar Neighbourhood
A period of quenching between the formation of the thick and thin disks of
the Milky Way has been recently proposed to explain the observed
age-[{\alpha}/Fe] distribution of stars in the solar neighbourhood. However,
robust constraints on stellar ages are currently available for only a limited
number of stars. The all-sky survey TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey
Satellite) will observe the brightest stars in the sky and thus can be used to
investigate the age distributions of stars in these components of the Galaxy
via asteroseismology, where previously this has been difficult using other
techniques. The aim of this preliminary study was to determine whether TESS
will be able to provide evidence for quenching periods during the star
formation history of the Milky Way. Using a population synthesis code, we
produced populations based on various stellar formation history models and
limited the analysis to red-giant-branch stars. We investigated the
mass-Galactic-disk-height distributions, where stellar mass was used as an age
proxy, to test for whether periods of quenching can be observed by TESS. We
found that even with the addition of 15% noise to the inferred masses, it will
be possible for TESS to find evidence for/against quenching periods suggested
in the literature (e.g. between 7 and 9 Gyr ago), therefore providing stringent
constraints on the formation and evolution of the Milky Way.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, proceedings of "Seismology of the Sun and the

Structure of Turbulence in Katabatic Flows below and above the Wind-Speed Maximum
Measurements of small-scale turbulence made over the complex-terrain
atmospheric boundary layer during the MATERHORN Program are used to describe
the structure of turbulence in katabatic flows. Turbulent and mean
meteorological data were continuously measured at multiple levels at four
towers deployed along the East lower slope (2-4 deg) of Granite Mountain. The
multi-level observations made during a 30-day long MATERHORN-Fall field
campaign in September-October 2012 allowed studying of temporal and spatial
structure of katabatic flows in detail, and herein we report turbulence and
their variations in katabatic winds. Observed vertical profiles show steep
gradients near the surface, but in the layer above the slope jet the vertical
variability is smaller. It is found that the vertical (normal to the slope)
momentum flux and horizontal (along the slope) heat flux in a slope-following
coordinate system change their sign below and above the wind maximum of a
katabatic flow. The vertical momentum flux is directed downward (upward)
whereas the horizontal heat flux is downslope (upslope) below (above) the wind
maximum. Our study therefore suggests that the position of the jet-speed
maximum can be obtained by linear interpolation between positive and negative
values of the momentum flux (or the horizontal heat flux) to derive the height
where flux becomes zero. It is shown that the standard deviations of all wind
speed components (therefore the turbulent kinetic energy) and the dissipation
rate of turbulent kinetic energy have a local minimum, whereas the standard
deviation of air temperature has an absolute maximum at the height of
wind-speed maximum. We report several cases where the vertical and horizontal
heat fluxes are compensated. Turbulence above the wind-speed maximum is
decoupled from the surface, and follows the classical local z-less predictions
for stably stratified boundary layer.Comment: Manuscript submitted to Boundary-Layer Meteorology (05 December 2014
The Josephson light-emitting diode
We consider an optical quantum dot where an electron level and a hole level
are coupled to respective superconducting leads. We find that electrons and
holes recombine producing photons at discrete energies as well as a continuous
tail. Further, the spectral lines directly probe the induced superconducting
correlations on the dot. At energies close to the applied bias voltage eV, a
parameter range exists, where radiation proceeds in pairwise emission of
polarization correlated photons. At energies close to 2eV, emitted photons are
associated with Cooper pair transfer and are reminiscent of Josephson
radiation. We discuss how to probe the coherence of these photons in a SQUID
geometry via single photon interference.Comment: Main text: 4 pages, 4 figures, Supplementary material: 8 pages, 4

Aplikasi Editor Pemeriksa Ejaan Dan Rekomendasi Kata Dalam Bahasa Indonesia Berbasis Android
Indonesian has now become more popular Internationally, for example, Vietnam used Indonesian Bahasa as their second language. There are several ways to helping people to learn Indonesian Bahasa, one of them is by creating a tool that allows them to determine whether the language the are currently learning is true or not. This thesis discusses the application of Indonesian editor with spell checker and diction recommendation features in IndonesianThe process is carried out as follows: users opens a file or typing in the editor, words input will be checked with Apache Lucene, and Lucene will crawling to all of the data and give the recommendation base on the weight (Leveinsthein Algorithm) and if a user opens a file, the application will perform spell checking using Nazief and Adriani algorithm. The result of this process is the result of input that is underlined words that is not in accordance with Indonesian, or suitable recommendation result by Apache Lucene. Input could be words or .doc file. As Output will be written in .doc file and the spell checking results and words recommendation will be shown in editor as the user types. This application is built using Java programming language and Android Studio as the IDE.The test result shows that the accuracy of the Nazief and Adriani Algorthms still need to be improved, word length and word complexity also affects the time in the checking process, for example: to check documents with 100 words, there are various of time from 1.48 minutes to 3.3 minutes. Besides that, this algorithm can not check the word which had 2 syllables, like “pertanggungjawaban” because of the stemming process
Perancangan Dan Pembuatan Sistem Informasi Administrasi Penjualan Dan Pembelian Pada Toko Sejahtera
Sejahtera stores have difficulty in dealing with the administration because its operation is still manual, i.e. the sale and purchase transactions, preparing reports and other expenditures problems. Thus allow for errors in the calculation of the invoice and the risk of losing documents. It can be harmful if done every day.To resolve the problems then a new system was designed and implemented. The new system was designed using Data Flow Diagrams (DFD) and Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) using Microsoft Visio and Power Designer, and implemented using Microsoft SQL Server 2012. The system includes the purchase is process, process of sale transaction, process of making an income statement, making the card stock.The system was created to facilitate the Sejahtera Stores to solve existing problems and to assist in the administration of Sejahtera Store
