Vortex Turbulence in Linear Schroedinger Wave Mechanics
Quantum turbulence that exhibits vortex creation, annihilation and
interactions is demonstrated as an exact solution of the time-dependent,
free-particle Schr\"odinger equation evolved from a smooth random-phased
initial condition. Relaxed quantum turbulence in 2D and 3D exhibits universal
scaling in the steady-state energy spectrum as k-1 in small scales. Due to the
lack of dissipation, no evidence of the Kolmogorov-type forward energy cascade
in 3D or the inverse energy cascade in 2D is found, but the rotational and
potential flow components do approach equi-partition in the scaling regime. In
addition, the 3D vortex line-line correlation exhibits universal behaviour,
scaled as \Deltar^-2, where \Deltar is the separation between any two vortex
line elements, in fully developed turbulence. We also show that the quantum
vortex is not frozen to the matter, nor is the vortex motion induced by other
vortices via Biot-Savart's law. Thus, the quantum vortex is actually a
nonlinear wave, propagating at a speed very different from a classical vortex.Comment: 9 pages, 14 figure
High-Resolution Simulation on Structure Formation with Extremely Light Bosonic Dark Matter
An alternative bosonic dark matter model is examined in detail via
high-resolution simulations. These bosons have particle mass of order
and are non-interacting. If they do exist and can account for
structure formation, these bosons must be condensed into the Bose-Einstein
state and described by a coherent wave function. This matter, also known as
Fuzzy Dark Matter (Hu, Barkana & Gruzinov 2000),, is speculated to be able,
first, to eliminate the sub-galactic halos to solve the problem of
over-abundance of dwarf galaxies, and, second, to produce flat halo cores in
galaxies suggested by some observations. Our simulation results show that
although this extremely light bosonic dark matter indeed suppresses low-mass
halos, it can, to the contrary of expectation, yield singular halo cores. The
density profile of the singular halo is almost identical to the halo profile of
Navarro, Frenk & White (1997). Such a profile seems to be universal, in that it
can be produced via either accretion or merger.Comment: 21 pages, 10 figure
Effects of Preheated Clusters on the CMB Spectrum
Mounting evidence from -ray observations reveals that bound objects should
receive some form of energy in the past injected from non-gravitaional sources.
We report that an instantaneous heating scheme, for which gases in dense
regions were subjected to a temperature jump of 1keV at whereas those in
rarified regions remained intact, can produce bound objects obeying the
observed mass-temperature and luminosity-temperature relations. Such preheating
lowers the peak Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) power by a factor of 2 and exacerbates
the need for the normalization of matter fluctuations to assume an
extreme high value for the SZ signals to account for the excess
anisotropy on 5-arcminute scale detected by the Cosmic Background Imager in the
cosmic microwave background radiation.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figs, submitted to ApJL. Corrected for a normalization
problem and one more simulation result is included. Conclusion has been
reversed. Motion pictures of simulations can be found at

High Current-Induced Electron Redistribution in a CVD-Grown Graphene Wide Constriction
Investigating the charge transport behavior in one-dimensional quantum confined system such as the localized states and interference effects due to the nanoscale grain boundaries and merged domains in wide chemical vapor deposition graphene constriction is highly desirable since it would help to realize industrial graphene-based electronic device applications. Our data suggests a crossover from interference coherent transport to carriers flushing into grain boundaries and merged domains when increasing the current. Moreover, many-body fermionic carriers with disordered system in our case can be statistically described by mean-field Gross-Pitaevskii equation via a single wave function by means of the quantum hydrodynamic approximation. The novel numerical simulation method supports the experimental results and suggests that the extreme high barrier potential regions on graphene from the grain boundaries and merged domains can be strongly affected by additional hot charges. Such interesting results could pave the way for quantum transport device by supplying additional hot current to flood into the grain boundaries and merged domains in one-dimensional quantum confined CVD graphene, a great advantage for developing graphene-based coherent electronic devices
Experimental evidence for direct insulator-quantum Hall transition in multi-layer graphene
We have performed magnetotransport measurements on a multi-layer graphene
flake. At the crossing magnetic field Bc, an approximately
temperature-independent point in the measured longitudinal resistivity, which
is ascribed to the direct insulator-quantum Hall (I-QH) transition, is
observed. By analyzing the amplitudes of the magnetoresistivity oscillations,
we are able to measure the quantum mobility of our device. It is found that at
the direct I-QH transition, the product of the quantum mobility and is about
0.37 which is considerably smaller than 1. In contrast, at Bc, the longitudinal
resistivity is close to the Hall resistivity, i.e., the product of the
classical mobility and the crossing field is about 1. Therefore our results
suggest that different mobilities need to be introduced for the direct I-QH
transition observed in multi-layered graphene. Combined with existing
experimental results obtained in various material systems, our data obtained on
graphene suggest that the direct I-QH transition is a universal effect in 2D.Comment: 4 figure
High Resolution Simulation on Structure Formation with Extremely Light Bosonic Dark Matter
在本篇論文中,我們假設暗物質為質量超輕的波色子,並利用薛丁格-泊松方程式解此問體。並分析暗物質暈的質量分佈及能量分佈。An alternative bosonic dark matter model is examined in detail via high-resolution simulations. These bosons have particle mass of order 10¡22eV and are non-interacting.f they do exist and can account for structure formation, these bosons must be condensed into the Bose-Einstein state and described by a coherent wave function.his matter, also known as Fuzzy Dark Matter (Hu, Barkana & Gruzinov, 2000),s speculated to be able, ¯rst, to eliminate the sub-galactic halos to solve the prob-em of over-abundance of dwarf galaxies, and, second, to produce °at halo coresn galaxies suggested by some observations. Due to the limited dynamical range,ur 10243 simulation literarily addresses cluster-size halos in an 100 h¡1Mpc box,ather than galaxy-size halos in an 1 h¡1Mpc box, by adopting 10¡26eV boson mass.owever, since the SchrÄodinger-Poisson model studied in this work is a scale-freeystem, our results can be rescaled to a simulation box 100 times smaller. The sim-lation results show that although this extremely light bosonic dark matter indeeduppresses low-mass halos, it can, to the contrary of expectation, yield singular haloores. The density pro¯le of the singular halo is almost identical to the halo pro¯lef Navarro, Frenk & White (1997). Such a pro¯le seems to be independent of theormation processes via accretion or merger. We shall stress a caveat for rescalingrom 100 h¡1Mpc to 1 h¡1Mpc box. The background density averaged over 100 h¡1Mpc is usually considered to represent the true background, but that averagedver 1 h¡1Mpc can be subject to large sample variance. Though our simulation,fter rescaling, correspond to one of the many background densities, or e®ectively one of the many background cosmologies, we believe that the general trend obtained in this work remains valid in di®erent cosmologies.1.
