Uncertainty relation for the position of an electron in a uniform magnetic field from quantum estimation theory
Creators: name: Funada, Shin

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We investigate the uncertainty relation for estimating the position of one electron in a uniform magnetic field in the framework of the quantum estimation theory. Two kinds of momenta, canonical one and mechanical one, are used to generate a shift in the position of the electron. We first consider pure state models whose wave function is in the ground state with zero angular momentum. The model generated by the two-commuting canonical momenta becomes the quasi-classical model, in which the symmetric logarithmic derivative quantum Cramér-Rao bound is achievable. The model generated by the two non-commuting mechanical momenta, on the other hand, turns out to be a Gaussian model, where the generalized right logarithmic derivative quantum Cramér-Rao bound is achievable. We next consider mixed-state models by taking into account the effects of thermal noise. The model with the canonical momenta now becomes genuine quantum mechanical, although its generators commute with each other. The derived uncertainty relationship is in general determined by two different quantum Cramér-Rao bounds in a non-trivial manner. The model with the mechanical momenta is identified with the well-known Gaussian shift model, and the uncertainty relation is governed by the right logarithmic derivative Cramér-Rao bound.

Phenomenological theory of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates

Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A phenomenological model is proposed to describe the behavior of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates. In the absence of hyperfine spin-spin interactions, Bose-Einstein condensation leads to a spontaneous magnetization at the same transition temperature. This is the so-called Bose-Einstein ferromagnetism. Including the hyperfine spin interactions, the phase diagram of the spinor condensate in an optical trap is studied and the Gross-Pitaevskii equation is extended. The possibility of checking for the existence of the Bose-Einstein ferromagnetism experimentally is also discussed.

Binary Neutron Star Mergers with Missing Electromagnetic Counterparts as Manifestations of Mirror World

description: We suggest that the major fraction of binary mergers, which might provide gravitational wave signal detectable by LIGO/Virgo, emerged from the hidden mirror sector. Mirror particles do not interact with an ordinary observer except gravitationally, which is the reason why no electromagnetic signals accompanying gravitational waves from mergers with components composed of mirror matter are expected. Therefore, if the dark matter budget of the universe is mostly contributed by the mirror particles, we predict that only about one binary neutron star (neutron star - black hole) merger out of ten, observable by LIGO/Virgo, in particular at favorable conditions relative to the line of sight, could be accompanied by prompt gamma ray burst and other electromagnetic signals suitable for follow up observations. It seems the list of candidate events recorded by LIGO/Virgo during third observational run supports our predictions.

Distinguishing among Scalar Field Models of Dark Energy

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We show that various scalar field models of dark energy predict degenerate luminosity distance history of the Universe and thus cannot be distinguished by supernovae measurements alone. In particular, models with a vanishing cosmological constant (the value of the potential at its minimum) are degenerate with models with a positive or negative cosmological constant whose magnitude can be as large as the critical density. Adding information from CMB anisotropy measurements does reduce the degeneracy somewhat but not significantly. Our results indicate that a theoretical prior on the preferred form of the potential and the field's initial conditions may allow to quantitatively estimate model parameters from data. Without such a theoretical prior only limited qualitative information on the form and parameters of the potential can be extracted even from very accurate data.

description: Large-scale energy storage is one of the key components to power a sustainable future. While lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have revolutionised our modern lifestyles, the cost of lithium resources and limited energy density that can be safely accessed have limited their potential as large-scale energy storage systems. Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) and potassium-ion batteries (KIBs) are studied as the alternatives due to the high energy density sulfur and cheaper potassium. In the first part of this PhD project, metal oxides are in situ integrated with conductive and flexible carbon framework as the LSBs interlayer, for the first time, to mitigate active material loss. The composite prepared has a large TiO2 content that can chemically trap polysulfides and a high porosity CNF scaffold for physically hosting the polysulfides. The combined results in the interlayer increase initial discharge capacity and prolong the cycle life as compared to the cell without this interlayer. In the next part of this PhD project, a new ion storing mechanism is designed to compete for the diffusion limitation and the structural deterioration of KIB electrodes. Unlike a rigid oxide electrode, the oxygen deficient loose-layered potassium titanates (LL-KTO) anode delaminates and restacks reversibly upon charging and discharging, to name it, stacked ↔ sliced structural transformation. This mechanism allows for large storage of K+ ions in the electrode with net-zero structural deterioration during cycling. Subsequently, layered sodium titanates (L-NTO) are prepared to examine whether stacked ↔ sliced structural transformation mechanism can be engineered in sodium-ion storage. Nevertheless, as evidenced by the electrochemical performances, L-NTO stored sodium with intercalation. The work conducted in this PhD project provided essential knowledge on methods for mitigating active material loss in a sulfur based battery and mechanism on how to efficiently store potassium.

description: This paper studies cross-sections inside black holes and conjectures a universal inequality: in a static $(d+1)$-dimensional asymptotically planar/spherical Schwarzschild-AdS spacetime of given energy $E$ and AdS radius $\ell_{\text{AdS}}$, the ``size of cross-section'' inside black holes is bounded by $8πE\ell_{\text{AdS}}/(d-1)$. To support this conjecture, it gives the proofs for cases with spherical/planar symmetries and some special cases without planar/spherical symmetries. As one corollary, it shows that the complexity growth rate in complexity-volume conjecture satisfies the upper bound argued by quantum information theory. This makes a first step towards proving the conjecture that the vacuum black hole has fastest complexity growth in the systems of same energy. It also finds a similar bound for asymptotically flat black holes, which gives us an estimation on the largest interior volume of a large evaporating black hole.

description: Magnetoelectric effects in honeycomb antiferromagnet Co4Nb2O9 are investigated on the basis of symmetry analyses of Co ions in trigonal P-3c1 space group. For each Co ion, the possible spin dependence is classified by C3 point-group symmetry. This accounts for the observed main effect that an electric polarization rotates in the opposite direction at the twice speed relative to the rotation of the external magnetic field applied in the ab-plane. Inversion centers and twofold axes in the unit cell restrict the active spin-dependence of the electric polarization, which well explains the observed experimental results. Expected optical properties of quadrupolar excitation and various types of dichroism are also discussed.

Two-harmonic approximation for gravitational waveforms from precessing binaries

description: Binary-black-hole orbits precess when the black-hole spins are mis-aligned with the binary's orbital angular momentum. The apparently complicated dynamics can in most cases be described as simple precession of the orbital angular momentum about an approximately fixed total angular momentum. However, the imprint of the precession on the observed gravitational-wave signal is yet more complicated, with a non-trivial time-varying dependence on black-hole dynamics, the binary's orientation and the detector polarization. As a result, it is difficult to predict under which conditions precession effects are measurable in gravitational-wave observations, and their impact on both signal detection and source characterization. We show that the observed waveform can be simplified by decomposing it as a power series in a new precession parameter $b = \tan(β/2)$, where $β$ is the opening angle between the orbital and total angular momenta. The power series is made up of five harmonics, with frequencies that differ by the binary's precession frequency, and individually do not exhibit amplitude and phase modulations. In many cases, the waveform can be well approximated by the two leading harmonics. In this approximation we are able to obtain a simple picture of precession as caused by the beating of two waveforms of similar frequency. This enables us to identify regions of the parameter space where precession is likely to have an observable effect on the waveform, and to propose a new approach to searching for signals from precessing binaries, based upon the two-harmonic approximation.

description: What are the socio-political roles of music? Why do people write about music? These are the essential questions underpinning this dissertation. The study interrogates early Chinese thinkers’ engagement with music in political, philosophical, and military treatises of the Warring States (戰國, 453-221 BCE) and Western Han (西漢 206 BCE-9 AD) periods. In a few words, it can be defined as ‘a socio-political analysis of musical references in Warring States and Han China.’ This study traces and analyses musico-political links in texts dating to these periods. In doing so, it demonstrates how textual references to music may be used as rhetorical tools, attesting to ideological conflicts raging within early Chinese society. In the first chapter I argue for a new understanding pertaining to perceptions of sound in early China. By re-examining language and contents of passages relating to sound from some of the most widely-read musical discussions of the period (in particular Xunzi’s 荀子 ca. 340-ca.245 BCE ‘Discourse on Music’ 樂論), I substantiate that sounds were, in fact, perceived by early Chinese thinkers not only as joyful and educating – as previously emphasised by critics – but also emotionally compelling and, moreover, potentially dangerous. In this quality of sounds lies the key to understanding the power of music in early Chinese texts, which is examined in detail throughout the four remaining chapters of my work. Chapter two discusses the terms and terminology used by critics in deeming music ‘good’ or ‘bad’ in early China. It argues that music critics tended to ground their musical arguments in ethical rather than aesthetical reasonings, and used music criticism to establish and maintain the sense of local or social identities. Chapter three examines the role music and sound played in the military, and argues that within the context of warfare, drums were perceived as sonic communication devices rather than musical instruments per se. Finally, chapter Four explores conceptualisations of silence and soundlessness, claiming that silence was perceived both positively – as the ancestor of sound, and negatively – as an indicator of ignorance. The thesis as a whole aims to explore the boundaries of the musical in early China and reveal how both the musical and the boundaries between the musical and the non-musical served intellectuals rhetorically and ideologically. Ultimately, I suggest, it is through the lens of music (albeit music that does not itself survive to us in sound) that one can unveil multiple aspects of early Chinese social, political, and intellectual life that have not, up to this point, been examined in scholarly literature.

description: The Rashba superconductor, in which spin-splitting bands become superconducting, is fascinating as a novel superconducting system in low dimensional systems. Here, we present the results of $\textit{in-situ}$ transport measurements on a Rashba-type surface state of the striped incommensurate (SIC) phase of a Pb atomic layer on Ge(111) surface with additional Pb islands/clusters on it. We found that two-step superconducting transitions at around 7 K and 3 K occurred. The latter superconducting transition is suggested to be induced at the non-superconducting Rashba SIC area because of the lateral proximity effect caused by the superconducting Pb clusters. Our results propose a new type of Rashba superconductor, which is a new platform to understand the Rashba superconducting systems.

description: This study estimates the respective comparative advantage of the production of five crops in Taiwan and investigates how government policies have influenced their production and trade. Rice, soyabeans, and maize cannot be produced economically because their domestic resource costs are higher than their world market prices. However, the Taiwanese farmer does not necessarily conform to the criteria for domestic resource cost coefficients. With government price incentives, the private profitability of rice, maize, and soyabeans reveals only positive advantages, which gives farmers an incentive to produec those crops. On the other hand, sugarcane and bananas are subject to relatively high negative effective rates of protection.

Field early-type galaxies define a tight Fundamental Plane (FP) out to z~0.4, with scatter unchanged with respect to local samples, within the observational errors. The intermediate redshift FP is offset with respect to the FP of the Coma Cluster. The offset of the FP is found to increase with redshift. The evolution of the FP is studied quantitatively with a Bayesian-Montecarlo technique. By applying this technique, we find that the offset of the intercept of the FP (Δγ) with respect to the local FP increases as Δγ= τz with the following 68 per cent limits: 0.332 (for Ω=1, Ω_Λ=0, H_0=50 \kms Mpc^{-1}) or 0.8

description: Blood cells are crucial to human physiology, with functions in oxygen transport, infection control, and wound healing. Molecular mechanisms endogenous to blood cells have been implicated in the aetiologies of cancer, infection and inflammatory and immune disorders. The genetic determinants of blood cell function have not been comprehensively characterised, because it is too difficult to perform direct assays of cell function in large population samples. High-throughput flow cytometry can be used to measure functionally relevant phenotypes such as cell granulation, nucleic acid content, and cell size. Many of these phenotypes are important for the diagnosis of diseases such as sepsis, Szary disease, toxic granulation, and myelodysplastic syndromes, or correlate with assessments of cell morphology from blood smear images. Here, I report the results of my genome- wide association study of 63 previously genetically unstudied blood cell flow cytometry phenotypes. I have identified associated variants in loci containing genes coding for established drug targets with known roles in white cell function and immunity. I have colocalised the association signals with blood cell transcriptomic, blood proteomic, and disease risk, identifying possible causal roles for molecular mechanisms endogenous to white cells in the aetiology of a range of immune disorders, including atopic dermatitis, multiple sclerosis and celiac disease. My results have utility in drug design and therapeutic target selection, demonstrated by examples including the replication of the mechanism of action of Daclizumab, a treatment for multiple sclerosis, and evidence for the role of IL-18R1 in aetiology of celiac disease. Furthermore, mendelian randomisation analyses suggest a causal role for blood cell flow cytometry phenotypes in the aetiology of coronary artery disease, lung cancer, and asthma. In addition to my work on flow cytometry traits, I report a major contribution to the largest ever GWAS meta-analysis of routine clinical haematological phenotypes, including 563,085 individuals. I performed primary and conditional analyses, identifying parsimonious sets of independently associated variants. This is the largest genome-wide association study study of clinical haematological phenotypes to date and identifies 7,122 association signals.

Axisymmetric flows on the torus geometry

description: We present a series of analytically solvable axisymmetric flows on the torus geometry. For the single-component flows, we describe the propagation of sound waves for perfect fluids, as well as the viscous damping of shear and longitudinal waves for isothermal and thermal fluids. Unlike the case of planar geometry, the non-uniform curvature on a torus necessitates a distinct spectrum of eigenfrequencies and their corresponding basis functions. This has several interesting consequences, including breaking the degeneracy between even and odd modes, a lack of periodicity even in the flows of perfect fluids and the loss of Galilean invariance for flows with velocity components in the poloidal direction. For the multi-component flows, we study the equilibrium configurations and relaxation dynamics of axisymmetric fluid stripes, described using the Cahn-Hilliard equation. We find a second-order phase transition in the equilibrium location of the stripe as a function of its area $ΔA$. This phase transition leads to a complex dependence of the Laplace pressure on $ΔA$. We also derive the underdamped oscillatory dynamics as the stripes approach equilibrium. Furthermore, relaxing the assumption of axial symmetry, we derive the conditions under which the stripes become unstable. In all cases, the analytical results are confirmed numerically using a finite-difference Navier-Stokes solver.

description: Using RXTE and ASCA data, we investigate the roles played by occultation and absorption in the X-ray spin pulse profile of the Intermediate Polar PQ Gem. From the X-ray light curves and phase-resolved spectroscopy, we find that the intensity variations are due to a combination of varying degrees of absorption and the accretion regions rotating behind the visible face of the white dwarf. These occultation and absorption effects are consistent with those expected from the accretion structures calculated from optical polarisation data. We can reproduce the changes in absorber covering fraction either from geometrical effects, or by considering that the material in the leading edge of the accretion curtain is more finely fragmented than in other parts of the curtain. We determine a white dwarf mass of ~1.2 using the RXTE data.

Rational Bézier triangles for the analysis of isogeometric higher-order gradient damage models

description: The computational approach of modeling smeared damage with quadrilateral elements in isogeometric analysis (e.g., using NURBS and T-splines) has limitations in scenarios where complicated geometries are involved. In particular, the higher-order smoothness that emerges due to the inclusion of higher-order terms in the nonlocal formulation is not always easy to preserve with multiple NURBS patches or unstructured T-splines where reduced continuity is observed at extraordinary points. This drawback can be bypassed by the use of Bézier triangles for domain triangulation, which significantly increases the flexibility in discretizing arbitrary spaces and eases the difficulty in handling singular points resulting from sharp changes in curvature. Moreover, the process of mesh generation can be completely automated and does not require any user intervention. We also adopt in this research an implicit higher-order gradient damage model in order to fix the non-physical mesh dependency exhibited in continuum damage analysis. For the solution of the fourth-order and sixth-order gradient damage models, Lagrange multipliers are adopted to elevate the global smoothness to a desired order in an explicit fashion. The solution algorithm initializes with the cylindrical arc-length method and switches to a dissipation-based arc-length control for better numerical stability as the damage evolves. A number of numerical examples with singularities demonstrated improved results in terms of efficiency and accuracy, as compared to the damage models represented by Powell-Sabin triangles.

Pushing the Boundaries of Endothermic Singlet Fission in Organic Semiconductors through Structure and Energetic Control

description: Singlet exciton fission (SF) is an exciton multiplication process in organic semiconductors in which a photoexcited singlet exciton is converted to two triplet excitons. SF based solar cells help break the Shockley-Quisser limit as high energy photons are used to generate two electron-hole pairs per photon absorbed with power conversion efficiencies (PCE) ~40%. Energetics of the states involved in SF determine the nature of driving force for SF, making it either an entropy-driven endothermic system or enthalpy-driven exothermic system. Many efforts to understand and implement SF in photovoltaics (PV) have been undertaken in the recent years. However, a fundamental understanding of triplet formation and physical parameters that govern the process is incomplete, and of paramount importance. In this dissertation, we study how two key parameters influence endothermic SF: morphology and energetics. SF occurs via two steps in acenes: a photoexcited singlet, S1, decays to form TT, and TT breaks into two free triplets, T1. The role played by morphology or the local geometry of molecules in triplet generation via SF is vital, as the process depends on the placement of adjacent molecular pairs. Morphology, determined by molecular structure as well as sample preparation methods, is thus linked directly to the efficiency of SF. We first demonstrate this in a model system: endothermic SF nanoparticles. Further, we engineer these nanoparticles to suit triplet transfer into inorganics for PV applications. The effect of molecular and crystal structures on SF dynamics is further explored in a new class of photo-stable molecules, thienoanthracenes. We investigate the endothermicity of thienoanthracenes by assessing their singlet and triplet energies. Thereafter, we delve into thermodynamic and kinetic parameters that determine efficient SF in thienoanthracenes. We choose one of the thienoanthracenes as a model system to understand what drives endothermic SF efficiently in it. An entropy based model with a statistical mechanics perspective is built to predict key factors that help assess the thermodynamic feasibility of SF in endothermic systems.

description: In this paper we analyse the fractal structure of long human-language records by mapping large samples of texts onto time series. The particular mapping set up in this work is inspired on linguistic basis in the sense that is retains {\em the word} as the fundamental unit of communication. The results confirm that beyond the short-range correlations resulting from syntactic rules acting at sentence level, long-range structures emerge in large written language samples that give rise to long-range correlations in the use of words.

description: Liquid state theories such as integral equations and classical density functional theory often overestimate the bulk pressure of fluids because they require closure relations or truncations of functionals. Consequently, the cost to create a molecular cavity in the fluid is no longer negligible and those theories predict wrong solvation free energies. We show how to correct them simply by computing an optimized Van der Walls volume of the solute and removing the undue free energy to create such volume in the fluid. Given this versatile correction, we demonstrate that state-of-the-art solvation theories can predict, within seconds, hydration free energies of a benchmark of small neutral drug-like molecules with the same accuracy as day-long molecular simulations.

description: We study soft-gluon radiation in top quark decay within the framework of perturbative fragmentation functions. We present results for the b-quark energy distribution, accounting for soft-gluon resummation in both the MSbar coefficient function and in the initial condition of the perturbative fragmentation function. The results show remarkable improvement and the b-quark energy spectrum in top quark decay exhibits very little dependence on factorization and renormalization scales. We present some hadron-level results in both x_B and moment space by including non-perturbative information determined from e+e- data.

description: We study the spontaneous $CP$ violation through the stabilization of the modulus $τ$ in modular invariant flavor models. The $CP$-invaraiant potentential has the minimum only at ${\rm Re}[τ] = 0$ or 1/2. From this prediction, we study $CP$ violation in modular invariant flavor models. The physical $CP$ phase is vanishing. The important point for the $CP$ conservation is the $T$ transformation in the modular symmetry. One needs the violation of $T$ symmetry to realize the spontaneous $CP$ violation.
