This paper describes the occurence of phase anholonomies in the context of point vortex problems for two-dimensional incompressible ows. After giving a brief description of anholo-nomic eeects in other contexts, we focus attention on the restricted three-vortex problem and a simpler modiied problem where thèHannay-Berry' phase can be computed using multi-scale asymptotic methods. Our main empha...

Two-phase bubble formation coupled with phase change at a submerged nozzle is studied theoretically. The whole bubble consists of a ®apor and a liquid phase. The inner ®apor phase is assumed to be surrounded by a thin condensate layer, in which the ®apor condenses partially as the two-phase bubble grows. The interface element approach is applied to describe the dynamics of bubble formation. The...

We analyze the phase diagram in effective chiral quark models (the Nambu– Jona-Lasinio model, the σ-model with quarks) and show that at the mean-field level a phase with a periodically-modulated chiral fields separates the usual phases with broken and restored chiral symmetry. A possible signal of such a phase is the production of multipion jets travelling in opposite directions, with individua...

In the proposed KJIT, there are two kernels: the inner kernel k for computing mean embeddings, and the outer Gaussian kernel κ defined on the mean embeddings. Both of the kernels depend on a number of parameters. In this section, we describe a heuristic to choose the kernel parameters. We emphasize that this heuristic is merely for computational convenience. A full parameter selection procedure...

We propose a linear compression technique for the time interval distribution of photon pairs. Using a partially frequency-entangled two-photon (TP) state with appropriate mean time width, the compressed TP time interval width can be kept in the minimum limit set by the phase modulation, and is independent of its initial width. As a result of this effect, ultra-narrow TP time interval distributi...

In the following we will desefibe a PC based system which allows motor disabled persons to control devices in a domestic environment. The system will be able to "learn" and reproduce infrared (IR) code from virtually every IR controller currently available, so it can relay on a wide range of commercial devices, now and in the future. The configuration phase will be quite easy, enabling non-expe...

Resonances appearing in hadronic scattering processes are described by a two-phase model. In the one phase, scattering products are observed, whereas the other phase describes confinement. A so-called “Resonance-Spectrum Expansion” is derived, containing expressions that resemble Breit-Wigner formulae. This method also provides a straightforward explanation for the origin of the light scalar me...

Perimeter search is a bidirectional search algorithm consisting of two phases. In the first phase, a limited regression search computes the perimeter, a region which must necessarily be passed in every solution. In the second phase, a heuristic forward search finds an optimal plan from the initial state to the perimeter. The drawback of perimeter search is the need to compute heuristic estimate...
