文摘Recently,large-scale trapped ion systems have been realized in experiments for quantum simulation and quantum computation.They are the simplest systems for dynamical stability and parametric resonance.In this model,the Mathieu equation plays the most fundamental role for us to understand the stability and instability of a single ion.In this work,we investigate the dynamics of trapped ions with the Coulomb interaction based on the Hamiltonian equation.We show that the many-body interaction will not influence the phase diagram for instability.Then,the dynamics of this model in the large damping limit will also be analytically calculated using few trapped ions.Furthermore,we find that in the presence of modulation,synchronization dynamics can be observed,showing an exchange of velocities between distant ions on the left side and on the right side of the trap.These dynamics resemble that of the exchange of velocities in Newton's cradle for the collision of balls at the same time.These dynamics are independent of their initial conditions and the number of ions.As a unique feature of the interacting Mathieu equation,we hope this behavior,which leads to a quasi-periodic solution,can be measured in current experimental systems.Finally,we have also discussed the effect of anharmonic trapping potential,showing the desynchronization during the collision process.It is hoped that the dynamics in this many-body Mathieu equation with damping may find applications in quantum simulations.This model may also find interesting applications in dynamics systems as a pure mathematical problem,which may be beyond the results in the Floquet theorem.

文摘The generation of nonclassical photons via quantum light–matter interactions is of fundamental importance in quantum optics.Here we investigate steady-state two-photon correlation function and photon squeezing in an open anisotropic Rabi lattice by applying quantum dressed master equation embedded with the mean-field approximation.The expanded antibunching effect of photons due to anisotropic qubit–photon interaction,is strongly suppressed by including inter-site photon tunneling,whereas the giant photon bunching keeps robust with weak inter-site photon tunneling strength.The microscopic processes for photon antibunching and bunching effects are presented based on incoherent transitions between eigenstates.The photon squeezing is also analyzed under the influences of qubit–photon coupling and anisotropic factor.The quadrature squeezing shows persistency by tuning on the inter-site photon tunneling,and becomes dramatically pronounced at the small anisotropic factor.Moreover,the increasing number of qubits significantly enhances quadrature squeezing with strong qubit–photon interaction.We hope such results may provide physical insights into efficient generation and manipulation of nonclassical features of photons in quantum light–matter interacting lattice systems.

文摘We have examined an isotropic and homogeneous cosmological model in f(R,T^(φ))gravity,where R represents the Ricci scalar and T^(φ)exhibits the energy momentum tensor's trace.We examine the stability criteria by performing the dynamical system analysis for our model f(R,T^(φ))=R+2(a T^(φ)+b),where a and b are the constants.We derive a set of autonomous equations and find their solutions by assuming a flat potential V0.We assess the equilibrium points from these equations and find the eigenvalues.We analyze the physical interpretation of the phase space for this system.We obtain three stable equilibrium points.We also examine the interaction between the scalar field and dark energy,represented by Q=ψH_(ρde)and determine the equilibrium points for this interaction.We identify four stable equilibrium points for this interaction.We calculate the values of the physical parameters for both scenarios at each equilibrium point,indicating the Universe's accelerated expansion.

文摘As a multidisciplinary phenomenon,panel aeroelasticity in shock-dominated flow is featured by two primary interactions:Fluid-Structure Interactions(FSIs)and Shock-Boundary Layer Interactions(SBLIs).The former raises structural concerns,and the latter is of aerodynamic interest.Thus,panel aeroelasticity in shock-dominated flow represents a vital topic for the development and optimization of supersonic vehicles and propulsion systems.This review systematically summarizes recent advances in the methodologies applied to capture structural and fluid dynamics,including theoretical models,numerical simulations,and wind tunnel experiments.The application of data-driven modal decomposition,an advanced technique to extract physically crucial features,on the topic is introduced.From the perspective of FSIs,the distinctive aeroelastic behaviors in shock-dominated flow,including hysteresis phenomena and nonlinear responses,are highlighted.From the perspective of SBLIs,the modifications in their spatial and temporal characteristics imposed by the aeroelastic responses are emphasized.Motivated by the interaction between the shock waves and structural response,different strategies have been proposed to implement aeroelastic suppression and shock control,which have the potential to enhance structural safety and aerodynamic performance in the next generation of high-speed flight vehicles.

文摘This study reveals the critical role of multiscale interaction within the westerly wind bursts(WWBs)west of the MJO convection in modulating the prediction skill for the November MJO event during the DYNAMO(Dynamics of the Madden–Julian Oscillation)field campaign.The characteristics of the MJO convection envelope are obtained by the largescale precipitation tracking method,and a novel metric is introduced to quantify the prediction skill for the MJO convection in the ECMWF reforecast.The ECMWF forecast exhibits approximately 17 days in skillful prediction for the MJO convection—significantly lower than that derived from the global measure.The reforecast ensembles are further classified into high and low skill catalogs based on the mean prediction skill during the observed WWBs period.High-skill ensembles exhibit significantly enhanced low-level westerlies,amplified MJO convection,and reduced spatial separation between the low-level westerlies and MJO convection during the WWBs period,indicating stronger coupling between the large-scale circulation and the convection.Mechanistic analysis reveals that enhanced westerlies in high-skill ensembles can transfer more high-frequency energy to the MJO convection through the flux convergence of interaction energy for MJO convection development,resulting in better prediction skill.

文摘Cytochrome c(cyt c)is released from mitochondria into the cytosol upon apoptotic stimulation,ultimately triggering programmed cell death.Recent studies have revealed that transfer RNA(tRNA)interacts with cyt c,impeding the formation of the apoptosome complex and thereby suppressing apoptosis.To elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying the interaction between cyt c and tRNA,nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)-based chemical shift perturbation and intensity analysis were employed to characterize the binding interface between cyt c and tRNAphe.The findings demonstrate that cyt c primarily engages with tRNAphe through its 70–85Ω-loop and N-terminalα-helix.This interaction sterically hinders the accessibility of small molecules,such as H_(2)O_(2),to the hydrophobic pocket of cyt c,consequently attenuating its peroxidase activity.Furthermore,oxidative modification of cyt c,particularly the carbonylation of positively charged lysine residues,weakens this interaction.

文摘Using observational and reanalysis datasets,this study explores the mechanisms by which the interactions among multi-timescale flows impacted the onset of rapid intensification(RI)of Typhoon Hato(2017).Hato(2017)formed within a northwest–southeast-oriented synoptic-scale(with periods<10 days)wave train,concurring with a developing intraseasonal(10–90 days)oscillation and an elongated low-frequency(>90 days)monsoon trough in the western North Pacific.Impacted by continuously increasing vertical wind shear,the TC long maintained a highly asymmetric convective structure.Prior to RI onset,the synoptic-scale circulation and the inner-core asymmetric convection of Hato(2017)greatly strengthened,which are the key factors believed to trigger RI.A multi-timescale eddy kinetic energy budget indicates that the wind convergence associated with the intraseasonal circulation and monsoon trough led to barotropic energy conversion that largely enhanced the synoptic-scale cyclonic circulation.Besides,the pronounced increases in midlevel relative humidity(RH)and surface latent heat flux(LHF)were observed upshear before RI onset,which were primarily driven by the strong intraseasonal and synoptic-scale RH anomalies and the strengthened low-level wind speed,respectively.The increased LHF and midlevel RH,together with the enhanced downshear confluence between synoptic-scale and Intraseasonal Oscillation(ISO)/low-frequency winds,could have helped the intensification of asymmetric convection that supports RI onset.Overall,this study suggests that the interactions across multiple timescales may create favorable dynamic and thermodynamic conditions that promoted RI onset,offering new insights into RI processes for highly asymmetric tropical cyclones like Hato(2017).

文摘Existing quantitative trait locus(QTL)mapping had low efficiency in identifying small-effect and closely linked QTL-by-environment interactions(QEIs)in recombinant inbred lines(RILs),especially in the era of global climate change.To address this challenge,here we integrate the compressed variance component mixed model with our GCIM to propose 3vGCIM for identifying QEIs in RILs,and extend 3vGCIM-random to 3vGCIM-fixed.3vGCIM integrates genome-wide scanning with machine learning,significantly improving power.In the mixed full model,we consider all possible effects and control for all possible polygenic backgrounds.In simulation studies,3vGCIM exhibits higher power(∼92.00%),higher accuracy of the estimates for QTL position(∼1.900 cM2)and effect(∼0.050),and lower false positive rate(∼0.48‰)and false negative rate(<8.10%)in three environments of 300 RILs each than ICIM(47.57%;3.607 cM2,0.583;2.81‰;52.43%)and MCIM(60.30%;5.279 cM2,0.274;2.17‰;39.70%).In the real data analysis of rice yield-related traits in 240 RILs,3vGCIM mines more known genes(57–60)and known gene-by-environment interactions(GEIs)(14–19)and candidate GEIs(21–23)than ICIM(27,2,and 7),and MCIM(21,1,and 3),especially in small-effect and linked QTLs and QEIs.This makes 3vGCIM a powerful and sensitive tool for QTL mapping and molecular QTL mapping.

文摘The complex aerodynamic interaction between tandem tilt-wing and multi-rotor directly affects the wing surface flow and rotor thrust,making it a critical factor during the tilt transition process of this configuration of rotorcraft.The aerodynamic interaction of tandem tilt-wing and multi-rotor is investigated based on the CFD method.The aerodynamic effect of multi tilt-rotor is simulated as virtual disk modeling by adding source terms to the Navier-Stokes equations,effectively reducing the calculation time while maintaining the accuracy of aerodynamic interaction calculations.Aerodynamic forces and flow field characteristics of the tandem tilt-wing and multi-rotor under different tilt angles are compared between cases with and without aerodynamic interaction.Furthermore,the differences in aerodynamic forces between dynamic tilt transition and fixed-angle conditions were compared.The results show that the aerodynamic interaction of multi-rotor obviously increases the lift of front tilt-wing at different tilt angles,the wing lift under interaction is increased by more than 40%compared with isolated wing at tilt angle of 15°for the computation in this paper,which is related to the increase of wing flow velocity and the suppression of flow separation caused by multi-rotor;the wing blocking effect will increase rotor thrust,especially near the tilt angles of 30°and 45°;the increases of rear wing lift and rear rotor thrust under aerodynamic interaction are not significant because of suppression by the front wing’s downwash;the unsteady effects during dynamic tilting have a relatively minor impact on aerodynamic interaction,with the aerodynamic forces on the rotors and wings during the dynamic tilting process showing little difference from those under corresponding fixed tilt angles.

文摘The dust cycle is a crucial component of the present-day Martian climate system.This study examines its multitimescale variability using an optimized 50-year simulation with the fully interactive scheme from the Global Open Planetary Atmospheric Model for Mars(GoMars),a newly developed Mars General Circulation Model(MGCM).GoMars is able to reproduce the diurnal,seasonal,and interannual characteristics of the dust cycle in several key aspects,with high repeatability in diurnal and seasonal variations during non-global dust storm(non-GDS)years.The model’s“climatology”(non-GDS years ensemble mean)captures the seasonal pattern and magnitude of the vertical–meridional dust distribution,validated against Mars Climate Database and Mars Climate Sounder observations.In the absence of direct observations,the GoMars-simulated near-surface wind stress lifting flux is evaluated through comparisons with other MGCMs(e.g.,MarsWRF),revealing consistent seasonal and spatial patterns.As for the diurnal cycle,the peak dust devil lifting flux occurs at 1200–1300 local time,matching the Mars Pathfinder measurements.The model also successfully captures the intense dust devil activity in Amazonis,a region identified as a major dust devil hotspot based on observational data.In GDS years,GoMars effectively reproduces spontaneous GDSs,capturing their observed onset times,locations,and dust transport patterns as exhibited in specific Martian years.The model also simulates significant interannual variability,with irregular GDS intervals along with reasonable dust–atmosphere interactions.

文摘Existing rehabilitation exoskeleton robots suffer from poor compatibility with the human limb coupling method,large internal power loss,and poor wearable performance,which seriously affect the rehabilitation ability of these robots.Therefore,this study proposes a variable stiffness humancomputer interaction contact unit module(VSHCUM)based on the granular jamming mechanism.It is characterized by a double-layer chamber structure:the inner layer is a granular chamber,and the outer layer is an air chamber.The interaction force is transmitted by embedding a rigid support in the inner layer.Unlike the common flexible-belt interactive contact unit,when the exoskeleton is bound to the patient's limb,vSHCUM can realize adaptive fitting of the patient's limb shape using the pressure change in the double-chamber structure.Simultaneously,by adjusting the vacuum level of the granular chamber,the stiffness of the interactive contact unit can be adjusted by a factor of more than five,and the internal work loss caused by self-pulling deformation during the auxiliary force transfer process can be reduced.

文摘The antioxidant activity of selenium-containing soybean peptides(SePPs)has been previously demonstrated,despite their limited absorption in the small intestine.This study investigates the antioxidant mechanism of a selenium-containing tetrapeptide,Ser-Phe-Gln-SeM(SFQSeM),identified from SePPs,with particular emphasis on its interaction with the intestinal microbiota and its role in modulating host antioxidant defenses.The effects of SFQSeM were evaluated in a D-galactose-induced oxidative stress model and an antibiotictreated mouse model.SFQSeM supplementation significantly reduced the oxidative stress in D-galactosetreated mice.It also promoted the growth of beneficial bacteria and increased the levels of acetate,butyrate and lactate in the intestine(P<0.05).In the antibiotic-treated mouse model,depletion of the intestinal microbiota significantly reduced hepatic glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)activity(26.6%)and glutathione peroxidase 1(GPx-1)expression(48.77%)compared to normal mice supplemented with SFQSeM(P<0.05).In contrast to Na_(2)SeO_(3)and selenomethionine,SFQSeM effectively restored the diversity of the intestinal microbiota disrupted by antibiotics.Lactobacillus,Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group,and Muribaculaceae were identified as predominant bacteria in the SFQSeM group,and were strongly associated with increased hepatic GSH-Px activity and GPx-1 mRNA expression(P<0.05).In conclusion,intestinal microbiota enhances the antioxidant efficacy of SFQSeM by modulating microbial composition,producing active metabolites,and converting SFQSeM into a bioactive form of selenium.

文摘Understanding the deterioration behaviors and mechanisms of rocks under thermo-hydromechanical(THM)interactions is crucial for mitigating slope instability.In this study,the physicomechanical properties of silty mudstone subjected to THM interactions were investigated by triaxial tests.The underlying micro-mechanisms were revealed using microscopic tests.The triaxial test results indicate that the strength parameters of silty mudstone decrease by 89.50%(deformation modulus),78.15%(peak strength),70.58%(cohesion),and 48.65%(friction angle)under 16 THM cycles,a load of 300 kPa,and alternating between 0℃water immersion and 60℃drying.The SEM test results indicate that the deterioration of silty mudstone strength primarily results from hydrothermal-expansion softening and cracking driven by the TLHM interactions.The specimens manifest shear failure under confining pressure exceeding 140 kPa.Furthermore,a new constitutive model considering hydrothermalexpansion strain and non-linear deformation characteristics was developed.The discrepancy between the experimentally measured peak strength and the damage constitutive model prediction remains below 5%.The proposed model is verified to be in satisfactory agreement with the experimental results.The self-designed THM apparatus overcomes the limitations of traditional investigations,enabling simultaneous consideration of thermal,hydraulic,and mechanical interactions.
