Pickup oxygen ion velocity space and spatial distribution around Mars
[1] We report a newly created highly parallelized global test particle model for resolving the pickup oxygen ion distribution around Mars. The background magnetic and convection electric fields are calculated using a three-dimensional multispecies magnetohydrodynamic model, which includes the effect of the Martian crustal magnetic field. In addition to photo-ionization, charge exchange collisio...
متن کاملComment on "Dayside Pickup Oxygen Ion Precipitation at Venus and Mars' Spatial Distributions, Energy Deposition, and Consequences"
The ejection of atoms and molecules from an atmosphere due to the energy deposited by plasma bombardment has been shown to play a role in the loss of species from certain planetary and satellite atmospheres. This ejection, often referred to as sputtering, can be produced by the bombarding plasma [Watson et al., 1980; McGrath and Johnson, 1987] and by locally generated "pickup ions" [e.g., Kozyr...
متن کاملIncomplete Detection of Nonclassical Phase-Space Distributions.
We implement the direct sampling of negative phase-space functions via unbalanced homodyne measurement using click-counting detectors. The negativities significantly certify nonclassical light in the high-loss regime using a small number of detectors which cannot resolve individual photons. We apply our method to heralded single-photon states and experimentally demonstrate the most significant ...
متن کاملStabilizer information inequalities from phase space distributions
The Shannon entropy of a collection of random variables is subject to a number of constraints, the best-known examples being monotonicity and strong subadditivity. It remains an open question to decide which of these “laws of information theory” are also respected by the von Neumann entropy of many-body quantum states. In this article, we consider a toy version of this difficult problem by anal...
متن کاملQuantum phase space distributions in thermofield dynamics
It is shown that the the quantum phase space distributions corresponding to a density operator ρ can be expressed, in thermofield dynamics, as overlaps between the state | ρ > and ”thermal” coherent states. The usefulness of this approach is brought out in the context of a master equation describing a nonlinear oscillator for which exact expressions for the quantum phase distributions for an ar...
