Correlation and spin polarization in quantum dots: Local spin density functional theory revisited
2005
Using quantum dot artificial atoms as a simple toy model, we reflect on the question of whether spin density functional theory (SDFT) can accurately describe correlation effects in low-dimensional fermion systems. Different expressions for the local density approximation of the exchange-correlation energy for the two-dimensional electron gas, such as the much-used functional of Tanatar and Ceperley, and the recent suggestion by Attaccalite et al., are compared with the results of a numerical diagonalization of the many-body Hamiltonian matrix in the limit of small electron numbers. For systems with degeneracies, as shown in the present work for the example of a spin triplet with S = 1, the …
Some aspects of deformations of supersymmetric field theories
2000
We investigate some aspects of Moyal-Weyl deformations of superspace and their compatibility with supersymmetry. For the simplest case, when only bosonic coordinates are deformed, we consider a four dimensional supersymmetric field theory which is the deformation of the Wess-Zumino renormalizable theory of a chiral superfield. We then consider the deformation of a free theory of an abelian vector multiplet, which is a non commutative version of the rank one Yang-Mills theory. We finally give the supersymmetric version of the $\alpha'\mapsto 0$ limit of the Born-Infeld action with a B-field turned on, which is believed to be related to the non commutative U(1) gauge theory.
D=4 supergravity dynamically coupled to superstring in a superfield Lagrangian approach
2003
We elaborate a full superfield description of the interacting system of dynamical D=4, N=1 supergravity and dynamical superstring. As far as minimal formulation of the simple supergravity is used, such a system should contain as well the tensor (real linear) multiplet which describes the dilaton and the two-superform gauge field whose pull-back provides the Wess-Zumino term for the superstring. The superfield action is given by the sum of the Wess-Zumino action for D=4, N=1 superfield supergravity, the superfield action for the tensor multiplet in curved superspace and the Green-Schwarz superstring action. The latter includes the coupling to the tensor multiplet both in the Nambu-Goto and i…
Lagrangians for Massive Dirac Chiral Superfields
2016
A variant for the superspin one-half massive superparticle in $ 4D $, $ \mathcal{N}=1 $, based on Dirac superfields, is offered. As opposed to the current known models that use spinor chiral superfields, the propagating fields of the supermultiplet are those of the lowest mass dimensions possible: scalar, Dirac and vector fields. Besides the supersymmetric chiral condition, the Dirac superfields are not further constrained, allowing a very straightforward implementation of the path-integral method. The corresponding superpropagators are presented. In addition, an interaction super Yukawa potential, formed by Dirac and scalar chiral superfields, is given in terms of their component fields. T…
Matter Induced Bimetric Actions for Gravity
2011
The gravitational effective average action is studied in a bimetric truncation with a nontrivial background field dependence, and its renormalization group flow due to a scalar multiplet coupled to gravity is derived. Neglecting the metric contributions to the corresponding beta functions, the analysis of its fixed points reveals that, even on the new enlarged theory space which includes bimetric action functionals, the theory is asymptotically safe in the large $N$ expansion.
Superfield commutators for D = 4 chiral multiplets and their apppications
1987
The superfield commutators and their corresponding equal-time limits are derived in a covariant way for the D=4 free massive chiral multiplet. For interesting chiral multiplets, the general KAllen-Lehmann representation is also introduced. As applications of the free superfield commutators, the general solution of the Cauchy problem for chiral superfields is given, and an analysis of the closure of the bilinear products of superfields which desrcibe the extension of the internal currents for free supersymmetric chiral matter is performed.
Functional super Read-Out Driver demonstrator for the Phase II Upgrade of the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter
2011
This work presents the implementation of a functional super Read-Out Driver (sROD) demonstrator for the Phase II Upgrade of the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) in the LHC experiment. The proposed front-end for the Phase II Upgrade communicates with back-end electronics using a multifiber optical connector with a data rate of 57.6 Gbps using the GBT protocol. This functional sROD demonstrator aims to help in the understanding of the problems that could arise in the upgrade of back-end electronics. The demonstrator is composed of three different boards that have been developed in the framework of ATLAS activities: the Optical Multiplexer Board (OMB), the Read-Out Driver (ROD) and the Optical…
Effect of Topological Structure and Coupling Strength in Weighted Multiplex Networks
2018
Algebraic connectivity (second smallest eigenvalue of the supra-Laplacian matrix of the underlying multilayer network) and inter-layer coupling strength play an important role in the diffusion processes on the multiplex networks. In this work, we study the effect of inter-layer coupling strength, topological structure on algebraic connectivity in weighted multiplex networks. The results show a remarkable transition in the value of algebraic connectivity from classical cases where the inter-layer coupling strength is homogeneous. We investigate various topological structures in multiplex networks using configuration model, the Barabasi-Albert model (BA) and empirical data-set of multiplex ne…
Optical module for single-shot quantitative phase imaging based on the transport of intensity equation with field of view multiplexing
2021
We present a cost-effective, simple, and robust method that enables single-shot quantitative phase imaging (QPI) based on the transport of intensity equation (TIE) using an add-on optical module that can be assembled into the exit port of any regular microscope. The module integrates a beamsplitter (BS) cube (placed in a non-conventional way) for duplicating the output image onto the digital sensor (field of view – FOV – multiplexing), a Stokes lens (SL) for astigmatism compensation (introduced by the BS cube), and an optical quality glass plate over one of the FOV halves for defocusing generation (needed for single-shot TIE algorithm). Altogether, the system provides two laterally separate…
Four channels multi-illumination single-holographic-exposure lensless Fresnel (MISHELF) microscopy
2018
Abstract MISHELF microscopy [Opt. Express 23, 21352 (2015)] has been recently reported as the background technology of a new concept of compact, cost-effective and field-portable lensless microscope [Sci. Rep. 7, 43291 (2017)] based on wavelength multiplexing and a fast and robust algorithm for twin image minimization and noise reduction. In this manuscript, MISHELF microscopy is expanded beyond its actual configuration by considering 4 illumination/detection channels while retaining its working principle concerning single-shot, twin image mitigation and noise averaging. Proof of principle validation of the proposed improvement is conducted through experiments with a resolution test target …
