Effects of a Supermassive Black Hole Binary on a Nuclear Gas Disk
We study influence of a galactic central supermassive black hole (SMBH)
binary on gas dynamics and star formation activity in a nuclear gas disk by
making three-dimensional Tree+SPH simulations. Due to orbital motions of SMBHs,
there are various resonances between gas motion and the SMBH binary motion. We
have shown that these resonances create some characteristic structures of gas
in the nuclear gas disk, for examples, gas elongated or filament structures,
formation of gaseous spiral arms, and small gas disks around SMBHs. In these
gaseous dense regions, active star formations are induced. As the result, many
star burst regions are formed in the nuclear region.Comment: 19 pages, 11 figures, accepted for publication in Ap
Population-only decay map for n-qubit n-partite inseparability detection
We introduce a new positive linear map for a single qubit. This map is a
decay only in populations of a single-qubit density operator. It is shown that
an n-fold product of this map may be used for a detection of n-partite
inseparability of an n-qubit density operator (i.e., detection of impossibility
of representing a density operator in the form of a convex combination of
products of density operators of individual qubits). This product map is also
investigated in relation to a variant of the entanglement detection method
mentioned by Laskowski and Zukowski.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, RevTex4, v2 minor grammatical changes, typos

Enhancement of the spin pumping efficiency by spin-wave mode selection
The spin pumping efficiency of lateral standing spin wave modes in a
rectangular YIG/Pt sample has been investigated by means of the inverse
spin-Hall effect (ISHE). The standing spin waves drive spin pumping, the
generation of spin currents from magnetization precession, into the Pt layer
which is converted into a detectable voltage due to the ISHE. We discovered
that the spin pumping efficiency is significantly higher for lateral standing
surface spin waves rather than for volume spin wave modes. The results suggest
that the use of higher-mode surface spin waves allows for the fabrication of an
efficient spin-current injector
Universal scaling for the spin-electricity conversion on surface states of topological insulators
We have investigated spin-electricity conversion on surface states of
bulk-insulating topological insulator (TI) materials using a spin pumping
technique. The sample structure is Ni-Fe|Cu|TI trilayers, in which magnetic
proximity effects on the TI surfaces are negligibly small owing to the inserted
Cu layer. Voltage signals produced by the spin-electricity conversion are
clearly observed, and enhanced with decreasing temperature in line with the
dominated surface transport at lower temperatures. The efficiency of the
spin-electricity conversion is greater for TI samples with higher resistivity
of bulk states and longer mean free path of surface states, consistent with the
surface spin-electricity conversion
