Influence on the Lifetime of ^(87)Rb Bose-Einstein Condensation for Far-Detuning Single-Frequency Lasers with Different Phase Noises

We study the influence of the phase noises of far detuning single frequency lasers on the lifetime of Bose-Einstein condensation（BEC）of^（87）Rb in an optical dipole trap.As a comparison,we shine a continuous-wave singlefrequency Ti：sapphire laser,an external-cavity diode laser and a phase-locked diode laser on BEC.We measure the heating and lifetime of BEC in two different hyperfine states：｜F=2,m_F=2〉and｜F=1,m_F=1〉.Due to the narrow linewidth and small phase noise,the continuous-wave single-frequency Ti：sapphire laser has less influence on the lifetime of^（87）Rb BEC than the external-cavity diode laser.To reduce the phase noise of the external-cavity diode laser,we use an optical phase-locked loop for the external-cavity diode laser to be locked on a Ti：sapphire laser.The lifetime of BEC is increased when applfying the phase-Jocked diode laser in contrast with the external-cavity diode laser.

This study characterizes the mechanical properties and volume fractions of the different phases in precision annealed GCr15 steel using nanoindentation technology. Experimental results indicate that the nanoindentation hardness of cementite grains is between 14.15 GPa and 17.61 GPa,with a mean value of 15.40 GPa. This hardness is much higher than the hardness of ferrite grains. The nanoindentation hardness of ferrite is between 2.78 GPa and 4.89 GPa, with a mean value of 3.35 GPa. The volume fractions of the different phases were also determined using nanoindentation technology, and the volume fraction of cementite in the steel was identified as 15%.

Enhanced performance of oxygen vacancies on CO_(2) adsorption and activation over different phases of ZrO_(2)

The effect of oxygen vacancies on the adsorption and activation of CO_(2) on the surface of different phases of ZrO_(2) is investigated by density functional theory(DFT)calculations.The calculations show that the oxygen vacancies contribute greatly to both the adsorption and activation of CO_(2).The adsorption energy of CO_(2) on the c-ZrO_(2),t-ZrO_(2) and,m-ZrO_(2) surfaces is enhanced to 5,4,and 3 folds with the help of oxygen vacancies,respectively.Moreover,the energy barrier of CO_(2) dissociation on the defective surfaces of c-ZrO_(2),t-ZrO_(2),and m-ZrO_(2) is reduced to 1/2,1/4,and 1/5 of the perfect surface with the assistance of oxygen vacancies.Furthermore,the activation of CO_(2) on the ZrO_(2) surface where oxygen vacancies are present,and changes from an endothermic reaction to an exothermic reaction.This finding demonstrates that the presence of oxygen vacancies promotes the activation of CO_(2) both kinetically and thermodynamically.These results could provide guidance for the high-efficient utilization of CO_(2) at an atomic scale.

Externalization and internalization of cardiac endothelin receptors during different phases of sepsis in rat

Objective To study the redistribution of ET1 receptors in two subcellular organelles, the sarcolemmal membrane and the light vesicle, of rat heart during the progress of septic shock Methods Male Sprague Dawley rats weighing from 270 to 320?g were randomly divided into three groups: control, early sepsis, and late sepsis Each group included six rats Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) Control rats were sham operated After operation for 9 hours or 18 hours, animals of the three groups were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (60?mg/kg IP) and the hearts were removed for preparation of sarcolemma and light vesicle Hemodynamic parameters were determined with polygraph via femoral artery and intraventricular cannula ET1 receptor was assayed by [ 125 I] ET1 binding Results Heart rate, cardiac output and left ventricular +dp/dt max undergo biphasic changes: an increase in early phase of sepsis (9?h after CLP) followed by a decrease in late phase of sepsis (18?h after CLP) Mean arterial blood pressure and left ventricular dp/dt max remained relatively unaltered during early phase of sepsis but was decreased during late phase of sepsis Although septic rat heart exhibited biphasic cardiodynamic changes, myocardial function showed signs of progressive deterioration during the development of sepsis, as indicated by a progressive elevation of LVEDP [ 125 I] ET1 bindings to cardiac membranes exhibited a saturable process with a single component binding characteristic for all three experimental groups In sarcolemmal membrane fraction, the maximum binding capacity (B max ) calculated from scatchard plot was increased 30% ( P <0 01) during early phase of sepsis but decreased 24% ( P <0 01) during late phase of sepsis The affinity [the reciprocal of the dissociation contant (Kd)] for [ 125 I] ET1 binding in sarcolemmal membranes remained unaffected during early and late phases of sepsis In light vesicle fraction, the B max for [ 125 I] ET1 binding was decreased by 19% ( P <0 05) during early phase of sepsis but increased by 38% ( P <0 01) during late phase of sepsis The affinity for [ 125 I] ET1 binding in light vesicles was unaltered in early and late phases of sepsis It should be mentioned that the sum of Bmax of sarcolemmal and light vesicle fractions was increased by 25% ( P <0 01) during early phase of sepsis but was decreased by 17% ( P <0 01) during late phase of sepsis Conclusions These data indicated that a biphasic intracellular redistribution of ET1 receptor in the heart might contribute to the development of the initial hyperdynamic and subsequent hypodynamic state during sepsis

Observability of Airborne Passive Location System with Phase Difference Measurements

With a pair of antennas spaced apart, an airborne passive location system measures phase differences of emitting signals. Regarded as cyclic ambiguities, the moduli of the measurements traditionally are resolved by adding more antenna elements. This paper models the cyclic ambiguity as a component of the system state, of which the observability is analyzed and compared to that of the bear- ings-only passive location system. It is shown that the necessary and sufficient observability condition for the bearings-only passive location system is only the necessary observability condition for the passive location system with phase difference measurements, and that when the system state is observable, the cyclic ambiguities can be estimated by accumulating the phase difference measurements, thereby making the observer able to locate the emitter with high-precision.

Evaluation of the effects of EPS composite soil replacement on the dynamic performance of caisson structure using shaking table tests

The seismic performance of a caisson structure under two types of models with a saturated sandy foundation(CSS)and an expanded polystyrene(EPS)composite soil foundation(CES)are studied using shaking table tests.The macro phenomena of the two different foundation models are described and analyzed.The effects of the replacement of EPS composite soil on seismic-induced liquefaction of backfill and the dynamic performance of a caisson structure are evaluated in detail.The results show that the excess pore water pressure generation in the CES is significantly slower than that in the CSS during the shaking.The dynamic earth pressure acting on the caisson has a triangular shape.The response of horizontal acceleration,displacement,settlement,and rotation angle of the caisson in the CES is smaller than that in the CSS,which means the caisson in the CES has a better seismic performance.Furthermore,the out-of-phase phenomenon between dynamic earth thrust and inertial force in the CES is more obvious than that in the CSS,which is beneficial to reduce the lateral force and improve the stability of the caisson structure.

Phase Difference Method for DOA Estimation

The phase difference method (PDM) is presented for the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation of the narrowband source. It estimates the DOA by measuring the reciprocal of the phase range of the sensor output spectra at the interest frequency bin. The peak width and variance of the PDM are presented. The PDM can distinguish closely spaced sources with different and unknown center frequencies as long as they are separated with at least one frequency bin. The simulation results show that the PDM has a better resolution than that of the conventional beamforming.

MFPL:Multi-Frequency Phase Difference Combination Based Device-Free Localization

With the popularity of indoor wireless network,device-free indoor localization has attracted more and more attention.Unlike device-based localization where the target is required to carry an active transmitter,their frequent signal scanning consumes a large amount of energy,which is inconvenient for devices with limited energy.In this work,we propose the MFPL,device-free localization(DFL)system based on WiFi distance measurement.First,we combine multi-subcarrier characteristic of Channel State Information(CSI)with classical Fresnel reflection model to get the linear relationship between the change of the length of reflection path and the subcarrier phase difference.Then we calculate the Fresnel phase difference between subcarrier pairs with different spacing from CSI amplitude time series.Finally,we get the change of the length of the reflection path caused by target moving to achieve distance measurement and localization.Using a combination of subcarriers with different spacing to achieve distance measurement effectively broadens the maximum unambiguous distance of the system.To solve the complex non-linear problem of the intersection of two elliptic equations,we introduce Newton's method to transform the non-linear problem into a linear one.The effectiveness of our approach is verified using commodity WiFi infrastructures.The experimental results show our method achieves a median error of 0.87 m in actual indoor environment.

The relation between the response spectrum and the phase diference spectrum

The relation between the phase difference spectrum and the response spectrum is studied in this paper. It is found that the phase difference spectrum influences the response spectrum through affecting the response motion′s envelope function shape of a single degree of freedom system. Decreasing the variance of phase difference spectrum causes the increasing of response spectrum when its mean value curve keeps the same, otherwise the situation is opposite. As the increase of the tangent of the mean value curve, the response spectrum decreases, otherwise it increases. The damping plays an important role while the phase difference spectrum influences the response spectrum. The effect of the phase difference spectrum on the absolute acceleration response spectrum becomes more and more obvious with the increase of the damping. On the other hand, the increase of damping weakens the effect of the phase difference spectrum on the amplification factor spectrum.

Equivalent comparison and analysis between different nominal frequencies

We analyze the phenomena of phase group synchronization between the different nominal frequency signals and propose a new theory of the equivalent comparison between them. The exact expression of the equivalent comparison is deduced. High resolution frequency measurement and phase comparison can be realized using this theory with the divider. For avoiding the frequency mixing, multiplication and synthesis, the system phase noise is improved and the higher resolution comparison and measurement are achieved between the different nominal frequencies by theory.

Effect of atomic initial phase difference on spontaneous emission of an atom embedded in photonic crystal

We investigate the effect of initial phase difference between the two excited states of a V-type three-level atom on its steady state behaviour of spontaneous emission. A modified density of modes is introduced to calculate the spontaneous emission spectra in photonic crystal. Spectra in free space are also shown to compare with that in photonic crystal with different relative positions of the excited levels from upper band-edge frequency. It is found that the initial phase difference plays an important role in the quantum interference property between the two decay channels. For a zero initial phase, destructive property is presented in the spectra. With the increase of initial phase difference, quantum interference between the two decay channels from upper levels to ground level turns to be constructive. Furthermore, we give an interpretation for the property of these spectra.

Feedback Control System for Antenna Phase Difference in the LHCD Experiments

It is well accepted that lower hybrid current drive （LHCD） is the most efficient method for non-inductive current drive in fusion devices and the effect of the current drive is dependent on not only microwave power but also its grill phase shift. This paper presents a new kind of feedback control system for antenna phase difference in LHCD experiments. In this highspeed control system, a lot of new technologies and methods are incorporated. The results of the experiments show a very good agreement with the system design.

The statistical laws of strong seismic motion phase characteristics

Under the assumption of an effective point source model,this paper introduces a conception of equivalent phase velocity to describle the average propagation processes and dispersion properties of seismic waves from seismic source to the site,then illuminates the relation between the phase properties of seismic motion and equivalent phase velocity and obtains a simple formula of estimating the equivalent phase velocity through the use of the phase difference spectrum of seismic motion.After the parts of strong seismic records in the western American and the SMART-1 array are used to identify the method presented by this paper in reason,the statistical relations of equivalent phase velocity are given in the above two regions.The results of the paper have demonstrated that the phase spectrum of seismic motion has its inner law as same as the amplitude spectrum does.

Non-contact Acoustic Contour Imaging Method Using Phase Difference in Extremely Shallow Underground

Buried object which exists at extremely shallow underground can be detected by using an acoustic vibration and a SLDV （scanning laser Doppler vibrometer）. Non-contact acoustic exploration can be realized by using air coupled sound. It was confirmed that discovery and the identification of a buried thing were possible using the OFR method （optimum frequency range method）. However, in this method, only the amplitude of the vibration speed spectrum is used and did not use the phase information. Therefore a new imaging method is proposed that used the phase information of the vibration speed spectrum. From the experimental results, the possibility of the outline extraction by using the phase difference between each scan point is confirmed. As a future task, the phase difference image will become clearer by changing the scan point density and long duration time of emitted wave.

High-precision time and frequency measurement method combining time-space conversion and different frequency phase detection

According to the time&space conversion relations and different frequency phase detection principle,an ultra-high precision time&frequency measurement method is proposed in this paper.The higher accuracy and stability of the speed of light and electromagnetic signals during the transmission in space or a specific medium enable the measurement of short time interval which uses the coincidence detection of signal’s transmission delay in length.The measurement precision better than 10 picoseconds can be easily obtained.The method develops the length vernier utilizing the stability of signal’s transmission delay,minimizes the fuzzy region of phase coincidence between the standard frequency signal and the measured signal,approaches the best phase coincidences and therefore improves the measurement precision which is higher than the precision provided by the traditional methods based on frequency processing.Besides,the method costs less than the traditional methods and can also solve the problem of the measurement of super-high frequency.Experimental results show the method can improve the measurement precision to 10 12/s in the time&frequency domain.

TRANSVERSE VELOCITY ESTIMATION BASED ON HIGH-ORDER DOPPLER EFFECT OF MOVING OBJECT

The one-order phase of the echo changes if there is relative radial moving between the object and the radar, i.e. , the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is widely used in radar signal processing. The transverse motion of the object cannot change the one-order phase of the echo, but the high-order phase. The high-order Doppler effect of the transverse moving target is presented and a new algorithm for obtaining the transverse velocity is given. The scalar velocity of a target moving steadily in any direction can be calculated with one-order and two-order items of the echo phase. The calculating method and simulating results are given. As the transverse speed is 900 km/h, the speed calculation error is less than 0. 06% if SNR of echo signal is higher than 0 dB.
