Modifying the optical path in a nonlinear double-slit experiment.
In this Letter, we study a nonlinear interferometric setup based on diffraction, rather than beam combining. It consists of a nonlinear analog of Young's double-slit experiment where a nonlinear material is placed exactly after one of the slits. The presence of nonlinearity breaks the transverse spatial symmetry of the system and, thus, modifies the optical path. For moderate nonlinearities, th...
متن کاملPath Integrals Without Integrals∗
Recently, we have developed an efficient recursive approach for analytically calculating the short-time expansion of the propagator to extremely high orders for a general many-body quantum system. Here we give brief overview of this approach and then demonstrate application of this technique by numerically studying the thermodynamical properties of a rotating ideal Bose gas of Rb atoms in an an...
متن کاملDouble Integrals and Iterated Integrals
Corresponding material in the book: Section 15.2, 15.3. Note: We are omitting the question types from the book that require three-dimensional visualization, i.e., those that require sketching figures in three dimensions to compute volumes. What students should definitely get: The procedure for computing double integrals over rectangles using iterated integrals, the procedure for computing doubl...
متن کاملGibbs measures with double stochastic integrals on a path space
We investigate Gibbs measures relative to Brownian motion in the case when the interaction energy is given by a double stochastic integral. In the case when the double stochastic integral is originating from the Pauli-Fierz model in nonrelativistic quantum electrodynamics, we prove the existence of its infinite volume limit. 1 Preliminaries 1.1 Gibbs measures relative to Brownian motions Gibbs ...
متن کاملPropagators and Path Integrals
Path-integral expressions for one-particle propagators in scalar and fermionic field theories are derived, for arbitrary mass. This establishes a direct connection between field theory and specific classical point-particle models. The role of world-line reparametrization invariance of the classical action and the implementation of the corresponding BRST-symmetry in the quantum theory are discus...
