Analogue of oscillation theorem for nonadiabatic diatomic states: application to the A 1Σ+ and b 3Π states of KCs

2010

Relative intensity measurements in the high resolution A (1)Sigma(+) approximately b (3)Pi--X (1)Sigma(+) laser induced fluorescence spectra of the KCs molecule highlighted a breakdown of the conventional one-dimensional oscillation theorem (L. D. Landau and E. M. Lifshitz, Quantum Mechanics, Pergamon, New York, 1965). For strongly spin-orbit coupled A (1)Sigma(+) and b (3)Pi states the number of nodes n(A) and n(b) of the non-adiabatic vibrational eigenfunctions phi and phi corresponding to the v-th eigenstate differs essentially from their adiabatic counterparts. It is found, however, that in the general case of two-component states with wavefunctions phi and phi coupled by the sign-const…

Determination of the $\theta_{23}$ octant in LBNO

2014

According to the recent results of the neutrino oscillation experiment MINOS, the neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{23}$ may not be maximal ($45^{\circ}$). Two nearly degenerate solutions are possible, one in the lower octant (LO) where $\theta_{23}45^{\circ}$. Long baseline experiments measuring the $\nu_{\mu}\rightarrow\nu_{e}$ are capable of resolving this degeneracy. In this work we study the potential of the planned European LBNO experiment to distinguish between the LO and HO solutions.

Leptogenesis with small violation of B-L

2012

We analyze leptogenesis in the context of seesaw models with almost conserved lepton number, focusing on the L-conserving contribution to the flavoured CP asymmetries. We find that, contrary to previous claims, successful leptogenesis is feasible for masses of the lightest heavy neutrino as low as M1 ~ 10^6 GeV, without resorting to the resonant enhancement of the CP asymmetry for strongly degenerate heavy neutrinos. This lower limit renders thermal leptogenesis compatible with the gravitino bound in supersymmetric scenarios.

Shape analysis of the level-spacing distribution around the metal-insulator transition in the three-dimensional Anderson model

1995

We present a new method for the numerical treatment of second order phase transitions using the level spacing distribution function $P(s)$. We show that the quantities introduced originally for the shape analysis of eigenvectors can be properly applied for the description of the eigenvalues as well. The position of the metal--insulator transition (MIT) of the three dimensional Anderson model and the critical exponent are evaluated. The shape analysis of $P(s)$ obtained numerically shows that near the MIT $P(s)$ is clearly different from both the Brody distribution and from Izrailev's formula, and the best description is of the form $P(s)=c_1\,s\exp(-c_2\,s^{1+\beta})$, with $\beta\approx 0.…

Some physical appearances of vector coherent states and coherent states related to degenerate Hamiltonians

2005

In the spirit of some earlier work on the construction of vector coherent states over matrix domains, we compute here such states associated to some physical Hamiltonians. In particular, we construct vector coherent states of the Gazeau-Klauder type. As a related problem, we also suggest a way to handle degeneracies in the Hamiltonian for building coherent states. Specific physical Hamiltonians studied include a single photon mode interacting with a pair of fermions, a Hamiltonian involving a single boson and a single fermion, a charged particle in a three dimensional harmonic force field and the case of a two-dimensional electron placed in a constant magnetic field, orthogonal to the plane…

The SVZ plasmon

1985

The sum rule technique of Shifman, Vainshtein and Zakharov is applied to a non-relativistic many-body system, the homogeneous, degenerate electron gas. The operator product expansion for the nonrelativistic correlation function is derived and shown to be equivalent in lowest order to a moment expansion. The nonperturbative terms in this expansion characterize the interacting ground state (“vacuum”) of the system. For the electron gas they can be related to the correlation energy which is very well known. Following as close as possible the SVZ procedure the mass of the plasmon (i.e. the dispersion coefficient of the collective plasma excitation) is calculated and compared with results from c…

The Ising–Bloch transition in degenerate optical parametric oscillators

2003

Domain walls in type I degenerate optical parametric oscillators are numerically investigated. Both steady Ising and moving Bloch walls are found, bifurcating one into another through a nonequilibrium Ising--Bloch transition. Bloch walls are found that connect either homogeneous or roll planforms. Secondary bifurcations affecting Bloch wall movement are characterized that lead to a transition from a steady drift state to a temporal chaotic movement as the system is moved far from the primary, Ising--Bloch bifurcation. Two kinds of routes to chaos are found, both involving tori: a usual Ruelle-Takens and an intermittent scenarios.

A note on the Pais-Uhlenbeck model and its coherent states

2011

In some recent papers many quantum aspects of the Pais-Uhlenbeck model were discussed. In particular, several inequivalent hamiltonians have been proposed, with different features, giving rise, at a quantum level, to the fourth-order differential equation of the model. Here we propose two new possible hamiltonians which also produce the same differential equation. In particular our first hamiltonian is self-adjoint and positive. Our second proposal is written in terms of pseudo-bosonic operators. We discuss in details the ground states of these hamiltonians and the (bi-)coherent states of the models.

Electron–cyclotron–resonance plasma heating with broadband microwave radiation: Anomalous effects

2007

Abstract Affects of microwave bandwidth on the high-charge-states of ion beams extracted from a conventional minimum- B -geometry ECR ion source are first demonstrated. The high-charge-state intensities, produced with broadband microwave radiation are observed to be factors ⩾2 than those produced with narrow bandwidth microwave radiation at the same power level.

Electron-gas clusters: the ultimate jellium model

1995

The local spin-density approximation is used to calculate ground- and isomeric-state geometries of jellium clusters with 2 to 22 electrons. The positive background charge of the model is completely deformable, both in shape and in density. The model has no input parameters. The resulting shapes of the clusters exhibit breaking of axial and inversion symmetries; in general the shapes are far from ellipsoidal. Those clusters which lack inversion symmetry are extremely soft against odd-multipole deformations. Some clusters can be interpreted as molecules built from magic clusters. The deformation produces a gap at the Fermi level. This results in a regular odd-even staggering of the total ener…
