Control of Electron Motion in a Molecular Ion: Dynamical Creation of a Permanent Electric Dipole
2007
The dynamics of a diatomic one-dimensional homonuclear molecule driven by a two-laser field is investigated beyond the usual fixed nuclei approximation. The dynamics of the nuclei is treated by means of Newton equations of motion; the full quantum description is used for the single active electron. The first laser pulse (pump) excites vibrations of the nuclei, while the second very short pulse (probe) has the role of confining the electron around one of the nuclei. We show how to use the radiation scattered in these conditions by the molecule to achieve real-time control of the molecular dynamics.
A Novel Mathematical Model For TLCD: Theoretical And Experimental Investigations
2014
In this paper, a novel mathematical model for the Tuned Liquid Column Damper (TLCD) is presented. Taking advantages of fractional derivatives and related concepts, a new equation of motion of the liquid inside the TLCD is obtained. Experimental laboratory tests have been performed in order to validate the proposed linear fractional formulation. Comparison among experimental results, numerical obtained using the classical formulation and numerical with the new linear fractional formulation are reported. Results in frequency domain show how the new linear fractional formulation can predict the real behavior of such a passive vibration control system, more correctly than the classical mathemat…
Adapted Approach for Omnidirectional Egomotion Estimation
2011
Egomotion estimation is based principally on the estimation of the optical flow in the image. Recent research has shown that the use of omnidirectional systems with large fields of view allow overcoming the limitation presented in planar-projection imagery in order to address the problem of motion analysis. For omnidirectional images, the 2D motion is often estimated using methods developed for perspective images. This paper adapts motion field calculated using adapted method which takes into account the distortions existing in the omnidirectional image. This 2D motion field is then used as input to the egomotion estimation process using spherical representation of the motion equation. Expe…
CONDENSATE FRACTION IN THE DYNAMIC STRUCTURE FUNCTION OF BOSE FLUIDS
2007
We present results on the behavior of the dynamic structure function in the short wave length limit using the equation of motion method. The one-body continuity equation defines the self-energy, which becomes a functional of the fluctuating two-body correlation function. We evaluate the self-energy in this limit and show that sum rules up to the second moment, which requires the self-energy in the short wave length limit and zero frequency to be proportional to the kinetic energy per particle, are exactly satisfied. We compare our results with the impulse approximation and calculate the condensate fraction. An analytic expression for the momentum distribution is also derived.
Collective variable theory for optical solitons in fibers
2000
We present a projection-operator method to express the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation for pulse propagation in optical fibers, in terms of the pulse parameters, called collective variables, such as the pulse width, amplitude, chirp, and frequency. The collective variable (CV) equations of motion are derived by imposing a set of constraints on the CVs to minimize the soliton dressing during its propagation. The lowest-order approximation of this CV approach is shown to be equivalent to the variational Lagrangian method. Finally, we demonstrate the application of this CV theory for pulse propagation in dispersion-managed optical fiber links.
THE OPERATOR PRODUCT EXPANSION OF THE QCD PROPAGATORS
1992
We bring together for the first time the coefficients in covariant gauges of all the condensates of dimension four or less in the operator product expansion (OPE) of the quark, gluon and ghost propagators. It is stressed that contrary to general belief the condensates do not enter the OPE of the propagators in gauge-invariant combinations like [Formula: see text] and 〈G2〉. The results are presented in arbitrary dimension to lowest order in the light quark masses for the SU (Nc) internal symmetry group. All terms which, through the equations of motion, may be viewed as being effectively of order αs are included. The importance of the equations of motion if one is to fulfill the Slavnov-Tayl…
Resonant activation in polymer translocation: new insights into the escape dynamics of molecules driven by an oscillating field
2010
The translocation of molecules across cellular membranes or through synthetic nanopores is strongly affected by thermal fluctuations. In this work we study how the dynamics of a polymer in a noisy environment changes when the translocation process is driven by an oscillating electric field. An improved version of the Rouse model for a flexible polymer has been adopted to mimic the molecular dynamics, by taking into account the harmonic interactions between adjacent monomers and the excluded-volume effect by introducing a Lennard–Jones potential between all beads. A bending recoil torque has also been included in our model. The polymer dynamics is simulated in a two-dimensional domain by num…
Microscopic anharmonic vibrator approach for beta decays
2007
Abstract We formulate a microscopic description of charge-changing excitations, including dynamical mixture of one- and two-phonon states. The present formalism generalizes our previous microscopic anharmonic vibrator approach (MAVA), designed to treat charge-conserving two- and four-quasiparticle degrees of freedom and their mixing. In the present formalism, the proton–neutron MAVA, pnMAVA, the main building blocks are the quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) phonons in the charge-conserving channels, and the proton–neutron QRPA (pnQRPA) phonons in the charge-changing channels. The QRPA and pnQRPA equations are directly used in deriving the equations of motion for two-phonon sta…
Electrophoretic properties of charged colloidal suspensions: Application of a hybrid MD/LB method
2006
Abstract Electrophoretic properties of charged colloidal suspensions are investigated using a hybrid simulation method. In this method, the colloidal particles are propagated via Newton’s equations of motion using molecular dynamics (MD), while they are coupled to a structureless solvent that is modelled by the Lattice-Boltzmann (LB) method.
Microscopic quasiparticle-phonon description of odd-mass127−133Xeisotopes and their β decay
1998
Quasiparticle-phonon equations of motion are solved starting from a microscopic realistic many-body Hamiltonian. In this microscopic quasiparticle-phonon model (MQPM) the relevant part of the three-quasiparticle Hilbert space may possibly be taken into account even in calculations using large single-particle bases. As an example, the MQPM is applied to the calculation of energy levels and Fermi and Gamow-Teller beta-decay transition amplitudes for transitions between odd-mass ${}^{127\ensuremath{-}133}\mathrm{Xe}$, ${}^{127\ensuremath{-}133}\mathrm{I}$, and ${}^{127\ensuremath{-}133}\mathrm{Cs}$ isotopes. Considering the fully microscopic nature of the MQPM, comparison of its results and da…
