Quantum Fidelity Decay of Quasi-Integrable Systems
We show, via numerical simulations, that the fidelity decay behavior of
quasi-integrable systems is strongly dependent on the location of the initial
coherent state with respect to the underlying classical phase space. In
parallel to classical fidelity, the quantum fidelity generally exhibits
Gaussian decay when the perturbation affects the frequency of periodic phase
space orbits and power-law decay when the perturbation changes the shape of the
orbits. For both behaviors the decay rate also depends on initial state
location. The spectrum of the initial states in the eigenbasis of the system
reflects the different fidelity decay behaviors. In addition, states with
initial Gaussian decay exhibit a stage of exponential decay for strong
perturbations. This elicits a surprising phenomenon: a strong perturbation can
induce a higher fidelity than a weak perturbation of the same type.Comment: 11 pages, 11 figures, to be published Phys. Rev.
Separation negatives from Kodak film types SO-368 and SO-242
Two master resolution friskets were produced on Kodak film types SO-368 and SO-242. These target masters consisted of 21 density steps with three-bar resolution targets at five modulation levels within each step. The target masters were contact printed onto Kodak separation negative film, type 4131, using both a contact printing frame and enlarger as one method of exposure, and a Miller-Holzwarth contact printer as the other exposing device. Red, green, and blue Wratten filters were used to filter the exposing source. Tray processing was done with DK-50 developer diluted 1:2 at a temperature of 70 F. The resolution values were read for the SO-368 and SO-242 target masters, and the red, green, and blue separation negatives
Apollo 17 photographic processing control document
The control parameters are defined which are to be used by the Photographic Technology Division for the processing of all films flown on Apollo Mission J-3. The procedures necessary for establishment of processing control are given along with information for denoting and solving any problem areas or conflicts which may occur prior to the mission
