Remeasurement of the Lifetime of the Isomeric 9/2+State in155Dy
1982
The isomeric 9/2+ state at 132.2 keV in the nucleus 155Dy has been populated through 3He bombardment (E = 27 MeV) of a 155Gd target. The half-life of the the 9/2+ level has been determined as 51 ± 3 ns. The decay modes of the 11/2-, 234.2 keV level have been confirmed. For both levels the hindrance factors calculated with the particle-rotor model have been compared with other predictions available.
Konishi form factor at three loops in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory
2017
We present the first results on the third order corrections to on-shell form factor (FF) of the Konishi operator in $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory using Feynman diagrammatic approach in modified dimensional reduction ($\overline{DR}$) scheme. We show that it satisfies the KG equation in $\overline{DR}$ scheme while the result obtained in four dimensional helicity (FDH) scheme needs to be suitably modified not only to satisfy the KG equation but also to get the correct ultraviolet (UV) anomalous dimensions. We find that the cusp, soft and collinear anomalous dimensions obtained to third order are same as those of the FF of the half-BPS operator confirming the universality o…
Dynamics of correlations due to a phase noisy laser
2012
We analyze the dynamics of various kinds of correlations present between two initially entangled independent qubits, each one subject to a local phase noisy laser. We give explicit expressions of the relevant quantifiers of correlations for the general case of single-qubit unital evolution, which includes the case of a phase noisy laser. Although the light field is treated as classical, we find that this model can describe revivals of quantum correlations. Two different dynamical regimes of decay of correlations occur, a Markovian one (exponential decay) and a non-Markovian one (oscillatory decay with revivals) depending on the values of system parameters. In particular, in the non-Markovia…
An algorithm for computing geometric relative velocities through Fermi and observational coordinates
2013
We present a numerical method for computing the \textit{Fermi} and \textit{observational coordinates} of a distant test particle with respect to an observer. We apply this method for computing some previously introduced concepts of relative velocity: \textit{kinematic}, \textit{Fermi}, \textit{spectroscopic} and \textit{astrometric} relative velocities. We also extend these concepts to non-convex normal neighborhoods and we make some convergence tests, studying some fundamental examples in Schwarzschild and Kerr spacetimes. Finally, we show an alternative method for computing the Fermi and astrometric relative velocities.
Analytic solutions and Singularity formation for the Peakon b--Family equations
2012
This paper deals with the well-posedness of the b-family equation in analytic function spaces. Using the Abstract Cauchy-Kowalewski theorem we prove that the b-family equation admits, locally in time, a unique analytic solution. Moreover, if the initial data is real analytic and it belongs to H s with s>3/2, and the momentum density u 0-u 0, xx does not change sign, we prove that the solution stays analytic globally in time, for b≥1. Using pseudospectral numerical methods, we study, also, the singularity formation for the b-family equations with the singularity tracking method. This method allows us to follow the process of the singularity formation in the complex plane as the singularity a…
Electron channeling experiments with bent silicon single crystals—a reanalysis based on a modified Fokker-Planck equation
2020
A surprising small dechanneling length was observed at (111) channeling of ultrarelativistic electrons in a 60 $\mu$m thick silicon single crystal with a bending radius of 0.15 m. The experiments were conducted at beam energies between 3.35 and 14 GeV at the Facility for Advanced Accelerator Experimental Tests (FACET at SLAC, USA). It is shown in this paper that the small dechanneling lengths can well be reproduced with a modified Fokker-Planck equation for plane crystals in which a crystal bending has been heuristically introduced. Encouraged by this result experiments have been reconsidered which were performed at the Mainz Microtron MAMI with (110) silicon undulator crystals. The results…
Precision mass measurements of antiprotons in a Penning trap
1992
Utilizing electron cooling, the TRAP collaboration has lowered the energy at which antiprotons can be stored and studied by more than 10 orders of magnitude, starting with 6 MeV particles from LEAR. We have held cryogenic antiprotons a few degrees above absolute zero for two months and the storage lifetime so established, more than 3.4 months is the longest directly measured limit for antiprotons. Measuring their cyclotron frequencies in a precision cylindrical Penning trap, we have shown that the inertial masses of the antiprotons and protons are the same to a fractional accuracy of 4 parts in 108, a 1000-fold improvement over the previous comparisons. This is the most stringent test of CP…
Removal of Resonances
2001
From the perturbative procedure in the last chapter we have learned that in the proximity of resonances of the unperturbed system, resonant denominators appear in the expression for the adiabatic invariants. We now wish to begin to locally remove such resonances by trying, with the help of a canonical transformation, to go to a coordinate system which rotates with the resonant frequency.
Solution for an arbitrary number of coupled identical oscillators.
1992
We propose a solution to the problem of solving the Schr\"odinger equation for an arbitrary number of identical one-dimensional harmonically coupled oscillators raised by Fan Hong-yi [Phys. Rev. A 42, 4377 (1990)]. The relationship between the Fock spaces associated with the uncoupled and coupled oscillators is given as well as the coordinate representation of the eigenstates. In view of further applications, the Lie algebraic properties of the model are examined, and the generalization to three spatial dimensions is made.
Analysis of the γγ→DD¯ reaction and the DD¯ bound state
2021
In this work, we investigate the reaction of $\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D\overline{D}$, taking into account the $S$-wave $D\overline{D}$ final state interaction. By fitting to the $D\overline{D}$ invariant mass distributions measured by the Belle and BABAR Collaborations, we obtain a good reproduction of the data by means of a $D\overline{D}$ amplitude that produces a bound $D\overline{D}$ state with isospin $I=0$ close to threshold. The error bands of the fits indicate, however, that more precise data on this reaction are needed to be more assertive about the position and width of such a state.
