Spiral Wave in Small-World Networks of Hodgkin-Huxley Neurons

The effect of small-world connection and noise on of Hodgkin-Huxley neurons are investigated in detail. Some the formation and transition of spiral wave in the networks interesting results are found in our numerical studies, i） The quiescent neurons are activated to propagate electric signal to others by generating and developing spiral wave from spiral seed in small area. ii） A statistical factor is defined to describe the collective properties and phase transition induced by the topology of networks and noise, iii） Stable rotating spiral wave can be generated and keeps robust when the rewiring probability is below certain threshold, otherwise, spiral wave can not be developed from the spiral seed and spiral wave breakup occurs for a stable rotating spiral wave. iv） Gaussian white noise is introduced on the membrane of neurons to study the noise-induced phase transition on spiral wave in small-world networks of neurons. It is confirmed that Ganssian white noise plays active role in supporting and developing spiral wave in the networks of neurons, and appearance of smaller factor of synchronization indicates high possibility to induce spiral wave.

Design of terahertz band-stop filter based on a metallic resonator on high-resistivity silicon wafer

In this paper, we present a terahertz (THz) band-stop filter realized by fabricating a metallic T-shaped resonator pattern on the high-resistivity silicon wafer. The filter exhibits two typical band-stop response characteristics depending on the incident direction of electric field with respect to the T-shaped resonator. When the long and the short arms of the T-shaped resonator were electrically polarized by changing the incident THz wave transmission directions, the corresponding central frequencies of the band-stop filter were found to be 0.436 THz at 42dB and 0.610 THz at 28 dB, respectively. Using three-dimensional (3D) finite-integral time-domain simulations, the band-stop filter was designed, which can operate in the wavelength between 0.2 and 0.8 THz. Experimental verification was also performed using a free space THz time-domain spectroscopy system. The band-stop response characteristics are in good agreement with the simulation results. The interesting THz band-stop filtering properties suggest a promising application in the modern THz communication systems, THz time-domain spectroscopic imaging and THz continuous wave imaging.

Coherence resonance and bi-resonance by time-periodic coupling strength in Hodgkin-Huxley neuron networks

We study the effect of time-periodic coupling strength on the spiking coherence of Newman-Watts networks of Hodgkin-Huxley(HH) neurons with non-Gaussian noise.It is found that the spiking can exhibit coherence resonance(CR) when the extent of deviation of non-Gaussian noise from Gaussian noise and the amplitude of the coupling strength are varied.In particular,coherence bi-resonance(CBR) is observed when the frequency of the coupling strength is varied,and the CBR is always observed when the frequency is equal to,or a multiple of,the spiking period,manifesting as the locking between the frequencies of the spiking and the coupling strength.The results show that a time-periodic coupling strength may play a more constructive and efficient role in enhancing the spiking coherence of the neuronal networks than a constant coupling strength.These findings provide insight into the role of time-periodic coupling strength for enhancing the time precision of information processing in neuronal networks.

Less than 6 GHz resolution THz spectroscopy of water vapor

The application of terahertz（THz） technique in many fields like petroleum industry requires the high resolution and multifunction to realize the precise detection of different materials. In this study water vapor in atmosphere was scanned with shortand long-path THz spectrometers with different scan ranges. The full width at half maximum of the THz characteristic lines in long-path system reached less than 7 GHz and that in short achieved -5.5 GHz, indicating that the THz spectroscopy of water vapor can be used to calibrate THz devices. THz systems with right scan ranges could be a promising selection for the identification of solid, liquid and gaseous materials with very similar structures due to the high resolution. The research demonstrates that the multifunctional THz test can be realized through the balance of resolution and sampling space in many fields, such as oil-gas industry.

DNS of a spatially evolving hypersonic turbulent boundary layer at Mach 8

This paper reports the direct numerical simulation (DNS) for hypersonic turbulent boundary layer over a flat-plate at Ma∞ =8 with the ratio of wall-to-freestream temperature equal to 1.9, which indicates an extremely cold wall condition. It is primarily used to assess the wall temperature effects on the mean velocity profile, Walz equation, turbulent intensity, strong Reynolds analogy (SRA), and compressibility. The present high Mach number with cold wall condition induces strong compressibility effects. As a result, the Morkovin's hypothesis is not fully valid and so the classical SRA is also not fully consistent. However, some modified SRA is still valid at the far-wall region. It is also verified that the semi-local wall coordinate y* is better than conventional y+ in analysis of statistics features in turbulent boundary layer (TBL) in hypersonic flow.

Terahertz beats of vibrational modes in methanol and ethanol selectively excited by tr-CARS technique

A recently developed time-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering(tr-CARS) technique allows the measurement of vibrational coherences with high frequency differences with the ambient environment.The method is based on the short spatial extension of femtosecond pulses with a broadband tunable nonlinear optical parametric amplifier(NOPA) and an internal time delay between the probe and pump/Stokes pulse pair in the CARS process.The different beat frequencies between Raman modes can be selectively detected as oscillations in the tr-CARS transient signal with the broadband tunable NOPA.In this work,we aim at the Raman C-H stretching vibrations from 2800 cm 1 to 3000 cm 1,within which the different vibrational modes in both ethanol and methanol are selectively excited and simultaneously detected.The high time resolution of the experimental set-up allows one to monitor the vibrational coherence dynamics and to observe the quantum beat phenomena on a terahertz scale.This investigation indicates that the femtosecond tr-CARS technique is a powerful tool for the real-time monitoring and detection of molecular and biological agents,including airborne contaminants such as bacterial spores,viruses and their toxins.

Characterizing Quantum Correlations in Arbitrary-Dimensional Bipartite Systems Using Hurwitz＇s Theory

Quantum correlations play vital roles in the quantum features in quantum information processing tasks. Among the measures of quantum correlations, quantum discord （QD） and entanglement of formation （EOF） axe two significant ones. Recent research has shown that there exists a relation between QD and EOF, which makes QD more significant in quantum information theory. However, until now, there exists no general method of chaxaeterizing quantum discord in high-dimensional quantum systems. In this paper, we have proposed a general method for calculating quantum discord in axbitraxy-dimensionM bipaxtite quantum systems in terms of Hurwitz＇s theory. Applications including the Werner state, the spin-1 XXZ model thermal equilibrium state, the Horodecki state, and the separable-bound-free entanglement state are investigated. We present the method of obtaining the EOF of axbitraxy-dimensional bipaxtite quantum states via purification, and the relations.hip between QD and EOF.
