Hyperaccurate currents in stochastic thermodynamics

Daniel Maria Busiello

Thermodynamic observables of mesoscopic systems can be expressed as integrated empirical currents. Their fluctuations are bound by thermodynamic uncertainty relations. We introduce the hyperaccurate current as the integrated empirical current with the leas ...

V-band nanosecond-scale pulse reflectometer diagnostic in the TCV tokamak

Stefano Coda, Laurie Porte, Pedro Andres Molina Cabrera

This article describes the realization of a novel approach to short pulse (∼1 ns) reflectometry (SPR) recently implemented in the tokamak configuration variable tokamak. Taking advantage of a fast arbitrary waveform generator and vector-network-analyzer ex ...

Floquet dynamics in the quantum measurement of mechanical motion

Tobias Kippenberg, Liu Qiu, Itay Shomroni, Nicolas Piro Mastracchio, Marie Adrienne Ioannou

The radiation-pressure interaction between one or more laser fields and a mechanical oscillator gives rise to a wide range of phenomena: From sideband cooling and backaction-evading measurements to ponderomotive and mechanical squeezing to entanglement and ...

Approximating Matsubara dynamics using the planetary model: Tests on liquid water and ice

Michele Ceriotti, Michael John Willatt

Matsubara dynamics is the quantum-Boltzmann-conserving classical dynamics which remains when real-time coherences are taken out of the exact quantum Liouvillian [T. J. H. Hele et al., J. Chem. Phys. 142, 134103 (2015)]; because of a phase-term, it cannot b ...

Hydrodynamics of a periodically wind‑forced small and narrow stratified basin: a large‑eddy simulation experiment

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner

We report novel results of a numerical experiment designed for examining the basin-scale hydrodynamics that control the mass, momentum, and energy distribution in a daily wind-forced, small thermally-stratified basin. For this purpose, the 3-D Boussinesq e ...

Development of a monolithic near-field optomechanical system

Ryan Daniel Schilling

In the same year as Einstein's annus mirabilis, English engineer and physicist John Flemming patented the first rectifying diode, which he called the "Flemming valve". Einstein's work on the photoelectric effect would change our understanding of the nature ...

Hydrogen Diffusion and Trapping in α-Iron: The Role of Quantum and Anharmonic Fluctuations

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng

We investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of a hydrogen interstitial in magnetic α-iron, taking account of the quantum fluctuations of the proton as well as the anharmonicities of lattice vibrations and hydrogen hopping. We show that the diffusivity o ...

Intensifying cavitating flows in microfluidic devices with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) microbubbles

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo

Cavitation and the energy associated with the collapse of resulting cavitation bubbles constitute an important research subject. The collapse of the hydrodynamic cavitation bubbles at the outlet of the flow elements leads to a high energy release and gener ...

Correlation electron cyclotron emission diagnostic in TCV

Laurie Porte

The correlation electron cyclotron emission diagnostic of tokamak a configuration variable has recently been upgraded. It now has the choice of three lines of sight: two horizontal lines placed on the low field side of the vessel, perpendicular to the magn ...

Does a Growing Static Length Scale Control the Glass Transition?

Matthieu Wyart

Several theories of the glass transition propose that the structural relaxation time tau(alpha) is controlled by a growing static length scale. that is determined by the free energy landscape but not by the local dynamic rules governing its exploration. We ...
