Resonant laser excitation of multiple Rydberg atoms are prohibited, leading to blockade, when the long-range van der Waals interactions stronger than laser-atom coupling. blockade can be violated, i.e. simultaneous more one atoms, by off-resonant excitation, causing an antiblockade. antiblockade gives rise strongly correlated many-body dynamics and spin-orbit coupling, also finds quantum comput...

The paper describes the net momentum transported by the transient electromagnetic radiation field of a long transient dipole in free space. In the dipole a current is initiated at one end and propagates towards the other end where it is absorbed. The results show that the net momentum transported by the radiation is directed along the axis of the dipole where the currents are propagating. In ge...

The frequency-dependent polarizabilities of closed-shell sodium clusters containing up to 20 atoms have been calculated using the linear complex polarization propagator approach in conjunction with Hartree-Fock and Kohn-Sham density functional theories. In combination with polarizabilities for C(60) from a previous work [J. Chem. Phys. 123, 124312 (2005)], the C(6) dipole-dipole dispersion coef...

A single-dipole model and a two-dipole model have been examined to approximate the electrical activity of heart; positions as well as vector components of these dipoles were estimated from the body surface potential distribution that was measured with 64 electrodes arranged on the chest. The "residue" has been defined as a measure for how much potential component is left that cannot be attribut...

In order to survive, animals must quickly and accurately locate prey, predators, and conspecifics using the signals they generate. The signal source location can be estimated using multiple detectors and the inverse relationship between the received signal intensity (RSI) and the distance, but difficulty of the source localization increases if there is an additional dependence on the orientatio...
