PERTS: A Prototyping Environment for Real-Time Systems
PERTS is a prototyping environment for real-time systems. It is being built incrementally and will contain basic building blocks of operating systems for time-critical applications, tools, and performance models for the analysis, evaluation and measurement of real-time systems and a simulation/emulation environment. It is designed to support the use and evaluation of new design approaches, experimentations with alternative system building blocks, and the analysis and performance profiling of prototype real-time systems
(2317) meson production at RHIC
Production of (2317) mesons in relativistic heavy ion collisions at
RHIC is studied. Using the quark coalescence model, we first determine the
initial number of (2317) mesons produced during hadronization of
created quark-gluon plasma. The predicted (2317) abundance depends
sensitively on the quark structure of the (2317) meson. An
order-of-magnitude larger yield is obtained for a conventional two-quark than
for an exotic four-quark (2317) meson. To include the hadronic effect
on the (2317) meson yield, we have evaluated the absorption cross
sections of the (2317) meson by pion, rho, anti-kaon, and vector
anti-kaon in a phenomenological hadronic model. Taking into consideration the
absorption and production of (2317) mesons during the hadronic stage of
heavy ion collisions via a kinetic model, we find that the final yield of
(2317) mesons remains sensitive to its initial number produced from the
quark-gluon plasma, providing thus the possibility of studying the quark
structure of the (2317) meson and its production mechanism in
relativistic heavy ion collisions.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure
Separable states and the geometric phases of an interacting two-spin system
It is known that an interacting bipartite system evolves as an entangled
state in general, even if it is initially in a separable state. Due to the
entanglement of the state, the geometric phase of the system is not equal to
the sum of the geometric phases of its two subsystems. However, there may exist
a set of states in which the nonlocal interaction does not affect the
separability of the states, and the geometric phase of the bipartite system is
then always equal to the sum of the geometric phases of its subsystems. In this
paper, we illustrate this point by investigating a well known physical model.
We give a necessary and sufficient condition in which a separable state remains
separable so that the geometric phase of the system is always equal to the sum
of the geometric phases of its subsystems.Comment: 13 page
Quantum Statistical Entropy and Minimal Length of 5D Ricci-flat Black String with Generalized Uncertainty Principle
In this paper, we study the quantum statistical entropy in a 5D Ricci-flat
black string solution, which contains a 4D Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole
on the brane, by using the improved thin-layer method with the generalized
uncertainty principle. The entropy is the linear sum of the areas of the event
horizon and the cosmological horizon without any cut-off and any constraint on
the bulk's configuration rather than the usual uncertainty principle. The
system's density of state and free energy are convergent in the neighborhood of
horizon. The small-mass approximation is determined by the asymptotic behavior
of metric function near horizons. Meanwhile, we obtain the minimal length of
the position which is restrained by the surface gravities and the
thickness of layer near horizons.Comment: 11pages and this work is dedicated to the memory of Professor Hongya
