Introduction: Signals and Transforms
2015
In this chapter we outline some well known facts about periodic signals and transforms, which are needed throughout the book. For details we refer to the classical textbook Oppenheim and Schafer [2].
Symmetric-group approach to the study of the traces ofp-order reduced-density operators and of products of these operators
1990
In this work we give the values of traces of p-order reduced-density operators. These traces are obtained by application of the spin functions and of the symmetric-group properties. The relations obtained here will allow an easy and fast evaluation of the high-order spin-adapted reduced Hamiltonian matrix elements and high-order Hamiltonian moments.
Ultrafast and Energy-Efficient Quenching of Spin Order: Antiferromagnetism Beats Ferromagnetism
2017
By comparing femtosecond laser pulse induced ferro- and antiferromagnetic dynamics in one and the same material - metallic dysprosium - we show both to behave fundamentally different. Antiferromagnetic order is considerably faster and much more efficiently manipulated by optical excitation than its ferromagnetic counterpart. We assign the fast and extremely efficient process in the antiferromagnet to an interatomic transfer of angular momentum within the spin system. Our findings do not only reveal this angular momentum transfer channel effective in antiferromagnets and other magnetic structures with non-parallel spin alignment, they also point out a possible route towards energy-efficient …
Fast Spin Echo e Spin-Echo
1994
Uno dei maggiori problemi connessi alio studio del SNC di pazienti in età pediatrica con RM è indubbiamente costituito dalla durata dell'esame stesso, che impone sovente la necessità di una sedazione farmacologica del paziente e limita allo stretto indispensabile il numero delle acquisizioni effettuate. Appare pertanto facilmente intuibile l'entusiasmo rivolto verso nuovi tipi di sequenze che presentino quale caratteristica principale una drastica riduzione dei tempi di acquisizione pur mantenendo un'affidabile qualità diagnostica. Le sequenze di tipo Fast-Spin-Echo (FSE) costituiscono il successivo sviluppo delle sequenze denominate RARE (Rapid Acquisition Relaxation Enhanced) descritte d…
Fourier-Accelerated Polymer Dynamics
1994
Fourier acceleration methods are applied to simulations of two-dimensional isolated ring polymers of up to N = 64 monomers. Three simulation schemes are compared: (i) a simple Langevin simulation with local updating, (ii) a Langevin algorithm with Fourier acceleration, and (iii) a Fourier accelerated Langevin algorithm combined with Metropolis acceptance of the moves (Force Biased Monte Carlo). In contrast to (i) and (ii), method (iii) is not hampered by systematic discretization errors, which, in case (ii), seem to grow systematically with chain length N. The results on the correlation time 4 are not very accurate, however, the data are in rough agreement with τ s N z with z= 2.5 (Rouse mo…
The Status of the Ultra Fast Flash Observatory - Pathfinder
2012
On behalf of the UFFO Collaboration; International audience; The Ultra Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO) is a project to study early optical emissions from Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). The primary scientific goal of UFFO is to see if GRBs can be calibrated with their rising times, so that they could be used as new standard candles. In order to minimize delay in optical follow-up measurements, which is now about 100 sec after trigger from the Swift experiment, we rotate a mirror to redirect light path so that optical measurement can be performed within a second after the trigger. We have developed a pathfinder mission, UFFO-pathfinder to launch on board the Lomonosov satellite in 2012. In this talk,…
Cosmological Applications of Extended Electromagnetism
2013
Extended electromagnetism (EE) has been applied to cosmology in various papers. In all of them, the zero order energy density of the EE vector field plays the same role as vacuum energy. Perturbations of this field have been studied by using different approaches. Firstly, some basic equations and ideas are summarized and, then, the CMBFAST code is used to calculate the cosmic microwave background angular power spectrum for appropriate values of the EE parameters. Comparisons of the resulting spectra with a good observational one compatible with WMAP7 (Wilkinson map anisotropy probe 7 years data) seem to be promising. We are currently looking for a set of parameters leading to the best fitti…
Few Cycle Dissipative Soliton Pulses
2006
We find a novel class of stable dissipative solitary waves with discrete velocities and few cycle temporal duration in a composite medium containing active and passive atoms.
Control of nonlinear instabilities in Bessel beams using shaped longitudinal intensity profiles
2017
International audience; We show that tailored longitudinal intensity shaping of a non-diffracting Bessel beam can strongly reduce four wave mixing induced oscillations and stabilize nonlinear propagation at ablation-level intensities
Laser driven parametric amplification of xuv and soft-x-rays in neutral gases
2010
We present the first theoretical description and also experimental evidence for the amplification of XUV and soft-X-ray radiation by parametric stimulated emission in neutral gases driven by near-IR laser pulses reaching small-signal-gain up to 8000.
