Counting defects in an instantaneous quench.
We consider the formation of defects in a nonequilibrium second-order phase transition induced by an instantaneous quench to zero temperature in a type II superconductor. We perform a full nonlinear simulation where we follow the evolution in time of the local order parameter field. We determine how far into the phase transition theoretical estimates of the defect density based on the Gaussian ...
متن کاملDensity of Topological Defects After a Quench
We present results of numerical studies of the Landau-Ginzburg dynamics of the order parameter in one-dimensional models inspired by the condensed matter analogues of cosmological phase transitions. The main goal of our work is to show that, as proposed by one of us [1], the density of the frozen-out topological defects is set by the competition between the quench rate — the rate at which the p...
متن کاملCounting the Hidden Defects in Software Documents
This chapter describes a novel application of machine learning to an important estimation problem in software engineering – estimating the number of hidden defects in software artifacts. The number of defects is a software metric that is indispensable for guiding decisions about the software quality assurance during development. In engineering processes, management usually demands that a certai...
متن کاملQuench and Quench Correction
The TopCount Microplate Scintillation and Luminescence Counter is capable of analyzing radiolabeled microplate samples in a wide variety of formats using liquid and solid scintillation counting techniques. Quench is a common interference in scintillation counting which reduces the sample’s apparent activity. In most applications, the level of quench is constant; hence, it need not be considered...
متن کاملQUENCH: A software package for the determination of quenching curves in Liquid Scintillation counting.
In Liquid Scintillation Counting (LSC), the scintillating source is part of the measurement system and its detection efficiency varies with the scintillator used, the vial and the volume and the chemistry of the sample. The detection efficiency is generally determined using a quenching curve, describing, for a specific radionuclide, the relationship between a quenching index given by the counte...
