Phase space deformation of a trapped dipolar Fermi gas
We consider a system of quantum degenerate spin polarized fermions in a
harmonic trap at zero temperature, interacting via dipole-dipole forces. We
introduce a variational Wigner function to describe the deformation and
compression of the Fermi gas in phase space and use it to examine the stability
of the system. We emphasize the important roles played by the Fock exchange
term of the dipolar interaction which results in a non-spherical Fermi surface.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
Making vortices in dipolar spinor condensates via rapid adiabatic passage
We propose to the create vortices in spin-1 condensates via magnetic
dipole-dipole interaction. Starting with a polarized condensate prepared under
large axial magnetic field, we show that by gradually inverting the field,
population transfer among different spin states can be realized in a controlled
manner. Under optimal condition, we generate a doubly quantized vortex state
containing nearly all atoms in the condensate. The resulting vortex state is a
direct manifestation of the dipole-dipole interaction and spin textures in
spinor condensates. We also point out that the whole process can be
qualitatively described by a simple rapid adiabatic passage model.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Aharonov-Casher phase and persistent current in a polyacetylene ring
We investigate a polyacetylene ring in an axially symmetric, static electric
field with a modified SSH Hamiltonian of a polyacetylene chain. An effective
gauge potential of the single electron Hamiltonian due to spin-field
interaction is obtained and it results in a Fr\"{o}hlich's type of
superconductivity equivalent to the effect of travelling lattice wave. The
total energy as well as the persistent current density are shown to be a
periodic function of the flux of the gauge field embraced by the polyacetylene
ring.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figure
The effect of hidden color channels on nucleon-nucleon interaction in quark model
In the framework of constituent quark model, the effect of hidden color
channels on the nucleon-nucleon () interaction is studied. By adjusting the
color confinement strength between the hidden color channels and color singlet
channels and/or between the hidden color channels and hidden color channels,
the experimental data of to partial-wave phase shifts of
scattering can be fitted well. The results show that the hidden color channel
coupling might be important in producing the intermediate-range attraction of
interaction. The deuteron properties and dibaryon candidates have also
been studied with this model.Comment: 11 pages, 9 figure
