Gyroscopic motion of superfluid trapped atomic condensates

Halvor Moll Nilsen, Dermot McPeake, J F McCann

The gyroscopic motion of a trapped Bose gas containing a vortex is studied. We model the system as a classical top, as a superposition of coherent hydrodynamic states, by solution…

Role of many-body entanglement in decoherence processes

Helen McAneney, Jinhyoung Lee, M. S. Kim

A pure state decoheres into a mixed state as it entangles with an environment. When an entangled two-mode system is embedded in a thermal environment, however, each mode may not be…

Quantum nonlocality test for continuous-variable states with dichotomic observables

H. Jeong, W. Son, M. S. Kim +2

There have been theoretical and experimental studies on quantum nonlocality for continuous variables, based on dichotomic observables. In particular, we are interested in two cases…

WeBo 1: A Young Barium Star Surrounded by a Ring-Like Planetary Nebula

Howard E. Bond, Don L. Pollacco, Ronald F. Webbink

WeBo 1 (PN G135.6+01.0), a previously unrecognized planetary nebula with a remarkable thin-ring morphology, was discovered serendipitously on Digitized Sky Survey images. The centr…

On Why Disks Generate Magnetic Towers and Collimate Jets

D Lynden-Bell

We show that accretion disks with magnetic fields in them ought to make jets provided that their electrical conductivity prevents slippage and there is an ambient pressure in their…

Correspondence between continuous variable and discrete quantum systems of arbitrary dimensions

Caslav Brukner, Myungshik S. Kim, Jian-Wei Pan +1

We establish a mapping between a continuous variable (CV) quantum system and a discrete quantum system of arbitrary dimension. This opens up the general possibility to perform any…

Entanglement of a two-mode squeezed state in a Gaussian environment

D. Wilson, J. Lee, M. S. Kim

Some non-classical properties such as squeezing, sub-Poissonian photon statistics or oscillations in photon-number distributions may survive longer in a phase-sensitive environment…

Optical control of photon tunneling through an array of nanometer scale cylindrical channels

I. I. Smolyaninov, A. V. Zayats, A. Stanishevsky +1

We report first observation of photon tunneling gated by light at a different wavelength in an artificially created array of nanometer scale cylindrical channels in a thick gold fi…

Chemical composition of B-type supergiants in the OB8, OB10, OB48, OB78 associations of M31

C. Trundle, P. L. Dufton, D. J. Lennon +2

Absolute and differential chemical abundances are presented for the largest group of massive stars in M31 studied to date. These results were derived from intermediate resolution s…

Generation of entangled coherent states via cross phase modulation in a double electromagnetically induced transparency regime

M. Paternostro, M. S. Kim, B. S. Ham

The generation of an entangled coherent state is one of the most important ingredients of quantum information processing using coherent states. Recently, numerous schemes to achiev…

Non-Local Quantum Gates: a Cavity-Quantum-Electro-Dynamics implementation

M. Paternostro, M. S. Kim, G. M. Palma

The problems related to the management of large quantum registers could be handled in the context of distributed quantum computation: unitary non-local transformations among spatia…

More nitrogen rich B-type stars in the SMC cluster, NGC 330

D. J. Lennon, P. L. Dufton, C. Crowley

High resolution spectra of seven early B-type giant/supergiant stars in the SMC cluster NGC330 are analysed to obtain their chemical compositions relative to SMC field and Galactic…

The evolutionary status of Sher25 - implications for blue supergiants and the progenitor of SN1987A

S. J. Smartt, D. J. Lennon, R. P. Kudritzki +3

The blue supergiant Sher25 in the massive Galactic cluster NGC3603 is surrounded by a striking emission line nebula. The nebula contains an equatorial ring and probable bi-polar ou…

Experimentally realizable characterizations of continuous variable Gaussian states

M. S. Kim, Jinhyoung Lee, W. J. Munro

Measures of entanglement, fidelity and purity are basic yardsticks in quantum information processing. We propose how to implement these measures using linear devices and homodyne d…

Duality of Hopf -algebras

Chi-Keung Ng

In this paper, we study the duality theory of Hopf -algebras in a general ``Hilbert-space-free'' framework. Our particular interests are the ``full duality'' and the ``reduced…
