We studied, strongly correlated states in triangular artificial atoms. Symmetry-driven orbital degeneracy of the single particle states can give rise to an SUð4Þ Kondo state with entangled orbital and spin degrees of freedom, and a characteristic phase shift d 1⁄4 p=4: Upon application of a Zeeman field, a purely orbital Kondo state is formed with somewhat smaller Kondo temperature and a fully ...

A method for the determination of the trajectory of a ballistic missile over a rotating, spherical Earth given only the launch position and impact point has been developed. The iterative solution presented uses a state transition matrix to correct the initial conditions of the ballistic missile state vector based upon deviations from a desired set of final conditions. A six-degree-of-freedom si...

In this paper, we are concerned with centered Markov Additive Processes {(Xt, Yt)}t∈T where the driving Markov process {Xt}t∈T has a finite state space. Under suitable conditions, we provide a local limit theorem for the density of the absolutely continuous part of the probability distribution of tYt given X0. The rate of convergence and the moment condition are the expected ones with respect t...

We study the dephasing of a single qubit coupled to a bosonic bath. In particular, we investigate the case when the bath is initially prepared in a pure state known as the Schrödinger cat. In clear contradistinction to the time evolution of an initial coherent state, the time evolutions of the purity and the coherence factor now depend on the particular choice of the Schrödinger cat state. We a...

Since the experimental discovery of the mass of the neutrinos [1] a legitimate question has been posed. Is there a possibility of a bound state between weakly interacting particles such as an electron and a neutrino? If the particles involved where nonrelativistic the answer would be immediate and negative. From numerical studies of the Schrödinger equation [2] the existence of a bound state pr...

This paper describes and compares three different state-of-the-art condition monitoring techniques: first principles, feature extraction, and neural networks. The focus of the paper is on the application of the techniques, not on the underlying theory. Each technique is described briefly and is accompanied by a discussion on how it can be applied properly. The discussion is finished with an enu...

A variant of Brockett’s necessary condition for feedback stabilization is derived, in the state constrained case.

Purpose This paper presents a new automated method to predict condition state rating in bridge inspection. The method is designed to identify proper risk-based inspection interval by neural networks and image processing techniques. Method The surface defect considered in this research work is the loss of surface portion (scaling) of concrete due to freezethaw action based on Ontario Structure I...

Abstract: A new method to solve a Lyapunov equation for a discrete delay system is proposed. Using this method, a Lyapunov equation can be solved from a simple linear equation and N -th power of a constant matrix, where N is the state delay. Combining a Lyapunov equation and frequency domain stability, a new stability condition is proposed for a discrete state delay system whose state delay is ...

In design of anaerobic bioreactor, rate equation is commonly used. Mathematical model was developed at steady state condition, to project concentration of gaseous substrate and product in biological oxidation of carbon monoxide with water to produce hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The concept of bioconversion was based on transport of CO from gas phase to liquid phase, as the CO consumption was in...
