Theory of ac electrokinetic behavior of spheroidal cell suspensions with an intrinsic dispersion
The dielectric dispersion, dielectrophoretic (DEP) and electrorotational (ER)
spectra of spheroidal biological cell suspensions with an intrinsic dispersion
in the constituent dielectric constants are investigated. By means of the
spectral representation method, we express analytically the characteristic
frequencies and dispersion strengths both for the effective dielectric constant
and the Clausius-Mossotti factor (CMF). We identify four and six characteristic
frequencies for the effective dielectric spectra and CMF respectively, all of
them being dependent on the depolarization factor (or the cell shape). The
analytical results allow us to examine the effects of the cell shape, the
dispersion strength and the intrinsic frequency on the dielectric dispersion,
DEP and ER spectra. Furthermore, we include the local-field effects due to the
mutual interactions between cells in a dense suspension, and study the
dependence of co-field or anti-field dispersion peaks on the volume fractions.Comment: accepted by Phys. Rev.
Perturbative Formulation and Non-adiabatic Corrections in Adiabatic Quantum Computing Schemes
Adiabatic limit is the presumption of the adiabatic geometric quantum
computation and of the adiabatic quantum algorithm. But in reality, the
variation speed of the Hamiltonian is finite. Here we develop a general
formulation of adiabatic quantum computing, which accurately describes the
evolution of the quantum state in a perturbative way, in which the adiabatic
limit is the zeroth-order approximation. As an application of this formulation,
non-adiabatic correction or error is estimated for several physical
implementations of the adiabatic geometric gates. A quantum computing process
consisting of many adiabatic gate operations is considered, for which the total
non-adiabatic error is found to be about the sum of those of all the gates.
This is a useful constraint on the computational power. The formalism is also
briefly applied to the adiabatic quantum algorithm.Comment: 5 pages, revtex. some references adde
Search for the Rare Decays J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e, J/Psi --> D- e+ nu_e, and J/Psi --> D0bar e+ e-
We report on a search for the decays J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e + c.c., J/Psi -->
D- e+ nu_e + c.c., and J/Psi --> D0bar e+ e- + c.c. in a sample of 5.8 * 10^7
J/Psi events collected with the BESII detector at the BEPC. No excess of signal
above background is observed, and 90% confidence level upper limits on the
branching fractions are set: B(J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e + c.c.)<4.8*10^-5, B(J/Psi
--> D- e+ nu_e + c.c.) D0bar e+ e- + c.c.)<1.1*10^-5Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Measurements of J/psi Decays into 2(pi+pi-)eta and 3(pi+pi-)eta
Based on a sample of 5.8X 10^7 J/psi events taken with the BESII detector,
the branching fractions of J/psi--> 2(pi+pi-)eta and J/psi-->3(pi+pi-)eta are
measured for the first time to be (2.26+-0.08+-0.27)X10^{-3} and
(7.24+-0.96+-1.11)X10^{-4}, respectively.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figure
BESII Detector Simulation
A Monte Carlo program based on Geant3 has been developed for BESII detector
simulation. The organization of the program is outlined, and the digitization
procedure for simulating the response of various sub-detectors is described.
Comparisons with data show that the performance of the program is generally
satisfactory.Comment: 17 pages, 14 figures, uses elsart.cls, to be submitted to NIM
Measurement of branching fractions for the inclusive Cabibbo-favored ~K*0(892) and Cabibbo-suppressed K*0(892) decays of neutral and charged D mesons
The branching fractions for the inclusive Cabibbo-favored ~K*0 and
Cabibbo-suppressed K*0 decays of D mesons are measured based on a data sample
of 33 pb-1 collected at and around the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with
the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider. The branching fractions for the
decays D+(0) -> ~K*0(892)X and D0 -> K*0(892)X are determined to be BF(D0 ->
\~K*0X) = (8.7 +/- 4.0 +/- 1.2)%, BF(D+ -> ~K*0X) = (23.2 +/- 4.5 +/- 3.0)% and
BF(D0 -> K*0X) = (2.8 +/- 1.2 +/- 0.4)%. An upper limit on the branching
fraction at 90% C.L. for the decay D+ -> K*0(892)X is set to be BF(D+ -> K*0X)
