Galaxy dynamics with the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph
N. R. Napolitano, A. J. Romanowsky, N. G. Douglas +6
The Planetary Nebula Spectrograph is a dedicated instrument for measuring radial velocity of individual Planetary Nebulae (PNe) in galaxies. This new instrument is providing crucia…
X-Ray Bursts and Proton Captures Close to the Dripline
T. Rauscher, F. Rembges, H. Schatz +2
The hydrogen-rich accreted envelopes of neutron stars in binary systems are the site for the rapid proton capture nucleosynthethic process (rp-process), which involves nuclei close…
Quantum Computation and Spin Electronics
D. P. DiVincenzo, G. Burkard, D. Loss +1
In this chapter we explore the connection between mesoscopic physics and quantum computing. After giving a bibliography providing a general introduction to the subject of quantum i…
Magnetic Trapping of Neutral Particles: A Study of a Physically Realistic Model
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
We study, both classically and quantum-mechanically, the problem of a neutral particle with spin S, mass m and magnetic moment mue, moving in two-dimensions in an inhomogeneous mag…
1D Toy Model For Trapping Neutral Particles
S. Gov, S. Shtrikman, H. Thomas
We study, both classically and quantum-mechanically, the problem of a neutral particle with spin, moving in one-dimension in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. This problem serves fo…
