We study the preparation of entangled pure Gaussian states via reservoir engineering. In particular, we consider a chain consisting of (2א+ 1) quantum harmonic oscillators where the central oscillator of the chain is coupled to a single reservoir. We then completely parametrize the class of (2א+1)-mode pure Gaussian states that can be prepared by this type of quantum harmonic oscillator chain. ...

Millimeter-wave FEL-oscillator is one of a possible source of RF power for accelerating structures of future linear colliders with high energy gain. JINR-IAP collaboration develops a high-efficiency single-mode FEL-oscillator with a Bragg resonator and reversed guide field. Output power of 48 MW at the frequency of 30.6 GHz with spectrum width 0.25% was registered in recent experiments using in...

This paper analyzes the influence of phase noise and distortion on the performance of oscillator-based sensor data acquisition systems. Circuit noise inherent to the oscillator circuit manifests as phase noise and limits the SNR. Moreover, oscillator nonlinearity generates distortion for large input signals. Phase noise analysis of oscillators is well known in the literature, but the relationsh...

We show theoretically how a driven harmonic oscillator can be used as a quantum simulator for the non-Markovian damped harmonic oscillator. In the general framework, our results demonstrate the possibility to use a closed system as a simulator for open quantum systems. The quantum simulator is based on sets of controlled drives of the closed harmonic oscillator with appropriately tailored elect...

An ensemble approach is presented for the reconstruction of a phase synchronization diagram from time series. As an example system, we analyze a forced Colpitts oscillator to show that synchronization diagram reconstructed by a single nonlinear model depends sensitively upon the model parameters, which should be estimated with a considerable amount of care. This dependence can be crucial for a ...

The two reliability models most widely used in engineering applications are the exponential and Weibull. Both deficient because their failure rates do not conform to bathtub curve nor specify infant mortality period. In addition, Weibull require lifetime data which entails testing or field observations usually proprietary. advantage of model is that it can be supported by both MIL handbook data...

A relaxation oscillator model of neural spiking dynamics is applied to the task of finding downbeats in rhythmical patterns. The importance of downbeat discovery or 'beat induction' is discussed, and the relaxation oscillator model is compared to other oscillator models. In a set of computer simulations the model is tested on 35 rhythmical patterns. The model performs well, making good predicti...
