Recently, strong spin-orbit coupling with equal Rashba and Dresselhaus strength has been realized in neutral atomic Bose-Einstein condensates via a pair of Raman lasers. In this report, we investigate spin and field squeezing of the ground state in spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate. By mapping the spin-orbit coupled BEC to the well-known quantum Dicke model, the Dicke type quantum pha...

The handle of a commercial bar clamp was redesigned using ergonomic principles and then compared with an original clamp. Ten male and ten female students participated in simulated clamping tasks under various conditions, including different clamping heights, clamping methods, and handle-gripping methods, with respect to the dependent variables of clamping and handle-squeezing forces. The result...

We perform a multimode treatment of spin squeezing induced by interactions in atomic condensates, and we show that, at finite temperature, the maximum spin squeezing has a finite limit when the atom number N → ∞ at fixed density and interaction strength. To calculate the limit of the squeezing parameter for a spatially homogeneous system we perform a double expansion with two small parameters: ...

We study the geometric phase of an open two-level quantum system under the influence of a squeezed, thermal environment for both non-dissipative as well as dissipative system-environment interactions. In the non-dissipative case, squeezing is found to have a similar influence as temperature, of suppressing geometric phase, while in the dissipative case, squeezing tends to counteract the suppres...

The flow and heat transfer inside a non-isothermal and incompressible thin film having its upper plate slightly inclined from the horizontal and undergoing an oscillatory squeezing motion is investigated in this work. Two models are analyzed: low and large Reynolds number flow models. The corresponding governing equations for each model are properly non-dimensionalized and solved numerically. T...

We explore the electric-field-induced interfacial instabilities of a trilayer composed of a thin elastic film confined between two viscous layers. A linear stability analysis (LSA) is performed to uncover the growth rate and length scale of the different unstable modes. Application of a normal external electric field on such a configuration can deform the two coupled elastic-viscous interfaces ...

The effects of both fluid leakage and wall slip conditions are studied analytically and numerically on the fluctuation rate in the flow inside non-isothermal disturbed thin films supported by soft seals within a fluidic cell. Flow disturbances due to internal pressure pulsations and external squeezing are considered in this work. The main controlling parameters are found to be the dimensionless...

Casting solidification brings to the shrinkage in the liquid state, solidification shrinkage and shrinkage in the solid state. Recently, technologies of die and gravity casting have increased the number of highly functional castings, which have been characterized with the very complex geometry. due to the different wall thickness in these castings, as well as the high solidification rates, prem...

Two types of sperm are produced in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. Nucleate eupyrene sperm is an ordinary sperm that contributes to fertilization, while anucleate apyrene sperm is considered to play important roles in assisting eupyrene sperm. At the very late stage of spermatogenesis, a phenomenon called "peristaltic squeezing" occurs in both types of sperm, whereby cytoplasm of the eupyrene and nu...

conclusions patients presenting with spondyloptosis with no neurological deficit can be managed with in-situ fusion via pedicle screws, especially when presenting late and with minimal kyphosis. introduction traumatic thoracic spondyloptosis is caused by high energy trauma and is usually associated with severe neurological deficit. cases presenting without any neurological deficit can be diffic...
