Non coaxial force and inductance calculations for bitter coils and coils with uniform radial current distributions
2011
Recently the Bessel function approach to calculating the magnetic fields of coils has been used to calculate the mutual inductance and the force between two non coaxial thick cylindrical coils with parallel axes and uniform radial current distributions. This method can also be applied to calculate the force and inductance between an ordinary coil and a Bitter coil, or between two bitter coils, not necessarily coaxial. Bitter coils give a simpler case of the method, and it is possible to solve analytically for the magnetic field of a bitter disk.
Cross-Kerr nonlinearity in optomechanical systems
2015
We consider the response of a nanomechanical resonator interacting with an electromagnetic cavity via a radiation pressure coupling and a cross-Kerr coupling. Using a mean field approach we solve the dynamics of the system, and show the different corrections coming from the radiation pressure and the cross-Kerr effect to the usually considered linearized dynamics.
Designing spin-spin interactions with one and two dimensional ion crystals in planar micro traps
2011
We discuss the experimental feasibility of quantum simulation with trapped ion crystals, using magnetic field gradients. We describe a micro structured planar ion trap, which contains a central wire loop generating a strong magnetic gradient of about 20 T/m in an ion crystal held about 160 \mu m above the surface. On the theoretical side, we extend a proposal about spin-spin interactions via magnetic gradient induced coupling (MAGIC) [Johanning, et al, J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 42 (2009) 154009]. We describe aspects where planar ion traps promise novel physics: Spin-spin coupling strengths of transversal eigenmodes exhibit significant advantages over the coupling schemes in longitudin…
Measuring the mean value of vibrational observables in trapped ion systems
2002
The theoretical foundations of a new general approach to the measurement problem of vibrational observables in trapped ion systems is reported. The method rests upon the introduction of a simple vibronic coupling structure appropriately conceived to link the internal ionic state measurement outcomes to the mean value of a motional variable of interest. Some applications are provided and discussed in detail, bringing to light the feasibility and the wide potentiality of the proposal.
Measurements of inclusive jet spectra in pp and central Pb-Pb collisions at sNN=5.02TeV
2020
This article reports measurements of the pT- differential inclusive jet cross section in pp collisions at √s=5 .02TeV and the pT- differential inclusive jet yield in Pb-Pb 0–10% central collisions at√sNN =5.02TeV. Jets were reconstructed at midrapidity with the ALICE tracking detectors and electromagnetic calorimeter using the anti-kT algorithm. For ppcollisions, we report jet cross sections for jet resolution parameters R =0.1–0.6 over the range 20 < pT, jet < 140 GeV/c, as well as the jet cross-section ratios of different R and comparisons to two next-to-leading-order (NLO)– based theoretical predictions. For Pb-Pb collisions, we report the R=0.2 and R=0.4 jet spectra for 40 < pT, jet < 1…
Modeling the energy thermalization of X-ray photons in a microcalorimeter with superconducting absorber
2003
We present a modeling of the response of a microcalorimeter to the absorption of X-ray photons, based on the main microscopical processes responsible for the energy thermalization. In particular, we have modeled a microcalorimeter with superconducting tin absorber (350 micron x 350 micron x 7 micron) and neutron transmutation doped (NTD) germanium thermistor (75 micron x 50 micron x 150 micron). Such a detector, operated at 60 mK, is expected to achieve a spectral resolution as good as 1 eV FWHM in the soft X-ray energy range, based on the known sources of thermal and electronic noise. Nevertheless, the best spectral resolution measured in laboratory experimental tests is of about 5 eV FWHM…
Branching fraction measurements of arsenic 4p25s-4p3 transitions
2021
Abstract Transition lines of neutral arsenic atom (As I) have been observed in the spectra of stellar and sub-stellar objects. Accurate and reliable data of oscillator strengths of those transitions allow differentiating between different evolution models of those objects. We have measured branching fractions for As I (4p25s-4p3) transition lines in 180–310 nm spectral range with higher increased accuracy using light source powered by inductively coupled radio frequency plasma (RF-ICP) source – not earlier applied in studies of atomic arsenic. The measurements were performed for 7 excited states of As I and compared with data from the literature. We combined them with the selected lifetime …
246. Analysis of signal-to-noise ratio for a 2-channels coil developed to enable transcranial Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (t…
2018
Abstract Purpose In recent years trans-cranial Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (tcMRgFUS) treatments have aroused large scientific and medical interest [1] . Usually, tcMRgFUS systems are integrated with 3 T systems which allow the use of the body RF coil for both real time imaging and MR-thermometry. At University Hospital of Palermo there is the world-first installation of a tcMRgFUS system integrated with a 1.5 T scanner. Here we present the characterization in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a dedicated RF coils suitably developed (by InSightec) to enable tcMRgFUS treatments with 1.5 T MR units. Methods and materials The focused ultrasound equipment (ExAblat…
Effects of Higher-Order Scattering in a Molecular Atmosphere
1964
The effects of higher-order scattering on intensity, degree of polarization, and direction of the plane of polarization in a molecular atmosphere have been calculated.Inclusion of higher-order scattering changes these parameters strongly. Particularly, consideration of higher-order scattering is essential in the blue wavelength range (large optical thickness). The influence increases with decreasing zenith distance of the sun. The earth albedo augments the effect, except for direction of the polarization, which is independent of higher-order scattering.
The Influence of Absorption on the Extinction of Solar and Sky Radiation
1965
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of absorption of the aerosol particles on the extinction of solar and sky radiation. The efficiency factors have been computed as well as the extinction, the scattering, the absorption, and the scattering function for the whole turbid atmosphere with help of the Mie theory for a complex index of refraction for a more or less absorbent medium. From these values the intensities of diffuse sky radiation have been obtained. The extinction and absorption coefficients increase for a more absorbent atmosphere, whereas the scattering coefficient decreases. The imaginary part of the complex index of refraction effects an increasing attenuatio…
