Nonclassical correlations in superconducting circuits
2009
A key step on the road map to solid-state quantum information processing (and to a deeper understanding of many counterintuitive aspects of quantum mechanics) is the generation and manipulation of nonclassical correlations between different quantum systems. Within this framework, we analyze the possibility of generating maximally entangled states in a system of two superconducting flux qubits, as well as the effect of their own environments on the entanglement dynamics. The analysis reported here confirms that the phenomena of sudden birth and sudden death of the entanglement do not depend on the particular measure of the entanglement adopted.
Three-nucleon calculations for local potentials with the quasiparticle method
1974
The three-nucleon system for energies below the breakup threshold is investigated with the help of the quasiparticle method. Two types of local potentials are used, namely purely attractive Yukawa potentials and the soft-core potentials of Malfliet and Tjon. The results obtained are compared with those of other calculations employing different methods.
Imprints of superfluidity on magnetoelastic quasiperiodic oscillations of soft gamma-ray repeaters.
2013
Our numerical simulations show that axisymmetric, torsional, magnetoelastic oscillations of magnetars with a superfluid core can explain the whole range of observed quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) in the giant flares of soft gamma-ray repeaters. There exist constant phase QPOs at $f\ensuremath{\lesssim}150\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{Hz}$ and resonantly excited high-frequency QPOs ($fg500\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{Hz}$), in good agreement with observations. The range of magnetic field strengths required to match the observed QPO frequencies agrees with that from spin-down estimates. These results suggest that there is at least one superfluid species in magnetar cores.
Time-energy filtering of single electrons in ballistic waveguides
2019
Characterizing distinct electron wave packets is a basic task for solid-state electron quantum optics with applications in quantum metrology and sensing. A important circuit element for this task is a non-stationary potential barrier than enables backscattering of chiral particles depending on their energy and time of arrival. Here we solve the quantum mechanical problem of single-particle scattering by a ballistic constriction in an fully depleted quantum Hall system under spatially uniform but time-dependent electrostatic potential modulation. The result describes electrons distributed in time-energy space according to a modified Wigner quasiprobability distribution and scattered with an …
Role of quasiparticles in universal low-temperature properties of
2008
Abstract We demonstrate that the main universal features of the low temperature magnetic field-temperature experimental phase diagram of CeCoIn 5 and other heavy-fermion metals can be well explained within the concept of quasiparticles and fermion condensation quantum phase transition. We analyze dynamic conductance recently obtained in measurements on CeCoIn 5 and show that the particle–hole symmetry is violated in this metal making dynamic conductance asymmetric as a function of applied voltage V .
Universal low-temperature behavior of the CePd_{1-x}Rh_x ferromagnet
2007
The heavy-fermion metal CePd_{1-x}Rh_x evolves from ferromagnetism at x=0 to a non-magnetic state at some critical concentration x_c. Utilizing the quasiparticle picture and the concept of fermion condensation quantum phase transition (FCQPT), we address the question about non-Fermi liquid (NFL) behavior of ferromagnet CePd_{1-x}Rh_x and show that it coincides with that of both antiferromagnet YbRh_2(Si_{0.95}Ge_{0.05})_2 and paramagnet CeRu_2Si_2 and CeNi_2Ge_2. We conclude that the NFL behavior being independent of the peculiarities of specific alloy, is universal, while numerous quantum critical points assumed to be responsible for the NFL behavior of different HF metals can be well redu…
The peculiarities of the phase diagram of heavy fermion metal CeCoIn5
2007
We analyze the low temperature experimental magnetic field–temperature H–T phase diagram of CeCoIn5. We demonstrate that its main features can be well explained within Landau quasiparticle picture incorporating the fact that quasiparticles form so-called fermion-condensate (FC) state emerging behind the fermion condensation quantum phase transition (FCQPT). We show that near FCQPT, the fluctuations are strongly suppressed while FC by itself is “protected” from above fluctuations by the first order phase transition. We demonstrate that the electronic system of CeCoIn5 can be shifted from the ordered towards disordered side of FCQPT by the application of magnetic field therefore giving a uniq…
Recurrence of the blue wing enhancements in the high ionization lines of SDSS 1004+4112 A
2006
We present integral field spectroscopic observations of the quadruple-lensed QSO SDSS 1004+4112 taken with the fiber system INTEGRAL at the William Herschel Telescope on 2004 January 19. In 2003 May, a blueward enhancement in the high-ionization lines of SDSS 1004+4112A was detected, and then it faded. Our observations are the first to note a second event of similar characteristics less than 1 year after. Although initially attributed to microlensing, the resemblance among the spectra of both events and the absence of microlensing-induced changes in the continuum of component A are puzzling. The lack of a convincing explanation under the microlensing or intrinsic variability hypotheses make…
The structure of the accretion disk in the lensed quasar SBS 0909+532
2011
We derive the size and temperature profile of the accretion disk of the lensed quasar SBS 0909+532 by measuring the wavelength dependence (chromaticity) of the microlensing magnification produced by the stars in the lens galaxy. After correcting for extinction using the flux ratios of 14 emission lines, we observe a marked change in the B-A flux ratio with wavelength, varying from -0.67 ± 0.05 mag at (rest frame) ∼1460 Åto -0.24 ± 0.07 mag at ∼6560 Å. For λ ≳ 7000 both effects, extinction and microlensing, look minimal. Simulations indicate that image B rather than A is strongly microlensed. If we model the change in disk size from 1460 Å to 6560 Å using a Gaussian source (I exp(-R 2/2r 2 s…
