The Generalized Tavis—Cummings Model with Cavity Damping

Cavity-damping-induced transitions in a driven atom- cavity system.

We investigate the fluorescence spectrum of a two-level atom in a cavity when the atom is driven by a classical field. We show that forbidden dipole transitions in the Jaynes-Cummings ladder structure are induced in the presence of cavity damping, which deteriorates the degree of otherwise perfect destructive interference among the transition channels. With the larger cavity decay, these transi...

An Rf Cavity for the Nlc Damping Rings*

We report on the design and development of a strongly HOM damped copper RF cavity for the NLC damping rings. The cavity is based on the successful PEP-II RF cavity but incorporates many simplifications and improvements. The cavity is designed for a frequency of 714 MHz, gap voltage of 500 kV and beam current of 800 mA. We present the RF design and HOM impedance calculations done in MAFIA, the R...

Viscous cavity damping of a microlever in a simple fluid.

We consider the problem of oscillation damping in air of a thermally actuated microlever as it gradually approaches an infinite wall in parallel geometry. As the gap is decreased from 20 microm down to 400 nm, we observe the increasing damping of the lever Brownian motion in the fluid laminar regime. This manifests itself as a linear decrease in the lever quality factor accompanied by a dramati...

The sound damping constant for generalized theories of gravity

The near-horizon metric for a black brane in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space and the metric near the AdS boundary both exhibit hydrodynamic behavior. We demonstrate the equivalence of this pair of hydrodynamic systems for the sound mode of a conformal theory. This is first established for Einstein’s gravity, but we then show how the sound damping constant will be modified, from its Einstein form, fo...
