Spin alignment measurements of the K*(0)(892) and phi(1020) vector mesons in heavy ion collisions at root S(NN)=200 GeV
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We present the first spin alignment measurements for the K*(0)(892) and phi(1020) vector mesons produced at midrapidity with transverse momenta up to 5 GeV/c at root s(NN) = 200 GeV at RHIC. The diagonal spin-density matrix ...
Gap anisotropy and universal pairing scale in a spin-fluctuation model of cuprate superconductors
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We consider the evolution of d(x)(2)-y(2) pairing, mediated by nearly critical spin fluctuations, with the coupling strength. We show that the onset temperature for pairing, T(*), smoothly evolves between weak and strong ...
Correlated two-proton decay from (10)C
(American Physical Society, 2008)
The decay of (10)C excited states to the 2p + 2 alpha exit channel has been studied using inelastic excitation of a secondary (10)C beam. The decay sequences leading to the 2p + 2 alpha final state are determined for the ...
Nonlinear magneto-optic polarization rotation with intense laser fields
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We have studied the nonlinear Faraday effect with intense linear polarized light in an optically thick atomic rubidium vapor. We demonstrate that the polarization rotation rate (rotation angle per unit magnetic field, in ...
Stress tensor and bulk viscosity in relativistic nuclear collisions
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We discuss the influence of different initial conditions for the stress tensor and the effect of bulk viscosity on the expansion and cooling of the fireball created in relativistic heavy ion collisions. In particular, we ...
Coulomb-corrected quantum trajectories in strong-field ionization RID A-7617-2010 RID A-5158-2009
(American Physical Society, 2008)
Nonperturbative analytical quantum treatments of strong-field laser-atom interaction are essentially based on the assumption that binding forces are negligible once the electron is emitted because the further dynamics are ...
Proposal for direct measurement of concurrence via visibility in a cavity QED system
(American Physical Society, 2008)
An experimental scheme is proposed that allows direct measurement of the concurrence of a two-qubit cavity system. It is based on the cavity-QED technology using atoms as flying qubits and relies on the identity of the ...
Manipulation of the Raman process via incoherent pump, tunable intensity, and phase control
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We present a proposal to manipulate the Raman process via incoherent pump, tunable intensity, and phase control of the driving fields. It is found that Raman absorptive peaks can become Raman gain peaks by controlling the ...
Aharonov-Casher and spin Hall effects in mesoscopic ring structures with strong spin-orbit interaction RID A-1315-2011 RID B-3617-2008
(American Physical Society, 2008)
We study the quantum interference effects induced by the Aharonov-Casher phase in asymmetrically confined two-dimensional electron and heavy-hole ring structure systems, taking into account the electrically tunable spin-orbit ...
Theory of reduced superfluid density in underdoped cuprate superconductors
(American Physical Society, 2008)
The critical temperature of an underdoped cuprate superconductor is limited by its phase stiffness rho. In this paper we argue that the dependence of rho on doping x should be understood as a consequence of deleterious ...
