Combining Molecular Dynamics with Lattice-Boltzmann: A Hybrid Method for the Simulation of (Charged) Colloidal Systems
2005
We present a hybrid method for the simulation of colloidal systems, that combines molecular dynamics (MD) with the Lattice-Boltzmann (LB) scheme. The LB method is used as a model for the solvent in order to take into account the hydrodynamic mass and momentum transport through the solvent. The colloidal particles are propagated via MD and they are coupled to the LB fluid by viscous forces. With respect to the LB fluid, the colloids are represented by uniformly distributed points on a sphere. Each such point (with a velocity V(r) at any off-lattice position r is interacting with the neighboring eight LB nodes by a frictional force F=\xi_0(V(r)-u(r)) with \xi_0 being a friction force and u(r)…
Lattice Boltzmann versus Molecular Dynamics simulations of nanoscale hydrodynamic flows
2006
A fluid flow in a simple dense liquid, passing an obstacle in a two-dimensional thin film geometry, is simulated by Molecular Dynamics (MD) computer simulation and compared to results of Lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulations. By the appropriate mapping of length and time units from LB to MD, the velocity field as obtained from MD is quantitatively reproduced by LB. The implications of this finding for prospective LB-MD multiscale applications are discussed.
Intraband and interband spin-orbit torques in noncentrosymmetric ferromagnets
2015
Intraband and interband contributions to the current-driven spin-orbit torque in magnetic materials lacking inversion symmetry are theoretically studied using Kubo formula. In addition to the current-driven field-like torque ${\bf T}_{\rm FL}= \tau_{\rm FL}{\bf m}\times{\bf u}_{\rm so}$ (${\bf u}_{\rm so}$ being a unit vector determined by the symmetry of the spin-orbit coupling), we explore the intrinsic contribution arising from impurity-independent interband transitions and producing an anti-damping-like torque of the form ${\bf T}_{\rm DL}= \tau_{\rm DL}{\bf m}\times({\bf u}_{\rm so}\times{\bf m})$. Analytical expressions are obtained in the model case of a magnetic Rashba two-dimension…
The band structure of double excited states for a linear chain
2000
Abstract The energy band structure in the case of double excited states of finite spin systems (s= 1 2 ) has been investigated. A geometrical construction based on the Bethe Ansatz method for determining eigenstates has been proposed. The formula for energy spectrum in the center and at the border of Brillouin zone has been obtained. Classification of energy bands has been elaborated on and approximated dispersion law for bounded states given. Some problems with application of the Bethe Ansatz in the case of finite system has been pointed out.
Cascade decays of triplet Higgs bosons at LEP2
1998
We study the Georgi-Machacek two triplet, one doublet model in the context of LEP2, and show that cascade decays of Higgs bosons to lighter Higgs bosons and a virtual vector boson may play a major role. Such decays would allow the Higgs bosons of this model to escape current searches, and in particular are of great importance for the members of the five-plet which will always decay to the three-plet giving rise to cascade signatures.
An algebraic approach to the Tavis-Cummings problem
2002
An algebraic method is introduced for an analytical solution of the eigenvalue problem of the Tavis-Cummings (TC) Hamiltonian, based on polynomially deformed su(2), i.e. su_n(2), algebras. In this method the eigenvalue problem is solved in terms of a specific perturbation theory, developed here up to third order. Generalization to the N-atom case of the Rabi frequency and dressed states is also provided. A remarkable enhancement of spontaneous emission of N atoms in a resonator is found to result from collective effects.
Anyons and transmutation of statistics via vacuum induced Berry phase
2004
We show that bosonic fields may present anyonic behavior when interacting with a fermion in a Jaynes-Cummings-like model. The proposal is accomplished via the interaction of a two-level system with two quantized modes of a harmonic oscillator; under suitable conditions, the system acquires a fractional geometric phase. A crucial role is played by the entanglement of the system eigenstates, which provides a two-dimensional confinement in the effective evolution of the system, leading to the anyonic behavior. For a particular choice of parameters, we show that it is possible to transmute the statistics of the system continually from fermions to bosons. We also present an experimental proposal…
Quantum benchmark for teleportation and storage of squeezed states.
2007
We provide a quantum benchmark for teleportation and storage of single-mode squeezed states with zero displacement and a completely unknown degree of squeezing along a given direction. For pure squeezed input states, a fidelity higher than 81.5% has to be attained in order to outperform any classical strategy based on an estimation of the unknown squeezing and repreparation of squeezed states. For squeezed thermal input states, we derive an upper and a lower bound on the classical average fidelity which tighten for moderate degree of mixedness. These results enable a critical discussion of recent experiments with squeezed light.
Complex-mass renormalization in chiral effective field theory
2009
We consider a low-energy effective field theory of vector mesons and Goldstone bosons using the complex-mass renormalization. As an application we calculate the mass and the width of the $\rho$ meson.
Multifractal electronic wave functions in disordered systems
1992
Abstract To investigate the electronic states in disordered samples we diagonalize very large secular matrices corresponding to the Anderson Hamiltonian. The resulting probability density of single electronic eigenstates in 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional samples is analysed by means of a box-counting procedure. By linear regression we obtain the Lipschitz-Holder exponents and the corresponding singularity spectrum, typical for a multifractal set in each case. By means of a Legendre transformation the mass exponents and the generalized dimensions are derived. Consequences for spectroscopic intensities and transport properties are discussed.
