Building on recent experimental advancements, we propose the generation of synthetic gauge fields, and by including exotic vortex phases within spinor Bose-Einstein condensates, employing a combination of a running wave and Laguerre-Gaussian laser fields. We investigate the ground-state characteristics of the SOAMC condensate, revealing the emergence of exotic vortex states with controllable orbital angular momenta. It is shown that the interplay of the SOAMC and conventional spin-linear-momentum coupling induced by the running wave beam leads to the formation of a vortex state exhibiting a phase stripe hosting single multiply quantized singularity. The phase of the ground state will undergo the phase transition corresponding to the breaking of rotational symmetry while preserving the mirror symmetry. Importantly, the observed density distribution of the ground-state wavefunction, exhibiting broken rotational symmetry, can be well characterized by the synthetic magnetic field generated through light interaction with the dressed spin state. Our findings pave the way for further exploration into the rotational properties of stable exotic vortices with higher orbital angular momenta against splitting in the presence of synthetic gauge fields in ultracold quantum gases.展开更多

Our calculation indicates the tetragonal VDS missing in cubic BT nanodots can be induced by varying the shape of a nanodot from cube to platelet. Interestingly, a novel VDS is found in BT nanoplatelets in our simulations. Further investigation shows that it is a result of compromise between the ground state and the symmetry of the shape of the nanodot. Furthermore, based on the novel VDS, routes of controlling VDSs governed by homogeneous electric field and uniform stress are discussed. In particular, our results show the possibility of designing multi-states devices based on a single VDS. ~ 2017 The Authors.

The expression of Δ↓Θ^2s is just the velocity flow without considering the coefficient. The curl of Δ↓Θ^2s is where the vortex lies, and has important relation to δ2(ψ) and an important relation to the zero points of resonating valence bond superconducting order parameter ψ. The topological structure of the vortex is characterized by the ψ-mapping topological numbers Hopf-index and Brouwer degrees. The Ginzberg-Landau equation in resonating valence bond state also is discussed in this theory. The magnetic property is discussed also.展开更多

The effects of the numerical apertures of and the phase difference of binary phase Fresnel zone plates, the topological charge of vortex beam and the degree of polarization of incident beam on the intensity distribution and degree of coherence in the focal plane are investigated in detail. It is shown that elliptical light spots and the flat top beam can be obtained by selecting certain parameters. Studies of degree of coherence reveal that the degree of coherence between x and y components of the electric field, which is zero in the source plane, is improved in the focal plane for vortex beam, but it is hardly changed for the nonvortex beam. It is also proved that any two of the three electric field components Ex, Ey and Ez are completely coherent everywhere in the focal region if the incident light beam is linearly polarized.展开更多

Various flow patterns behind the cylinder-pair have been identified by the gap ratio (G) and Reynolds number (Re). This study focus on transition of in-phase and anti-phase vortex shedding synchronized forms. A nested Cartesian-grid formulation, in combination with an effective immersed boundary method and a two-step fractional-step procedure, has been adopted to simulate the flows. Numerical results reveal that the in-phase and anti-phase vortex shedding flows at Re = 100 can co-exist at 2.08 ≤G≤ 2.58. Hysteresis loop with increasing/decreasing G at constant Reynolds number Re = 100 is reported.展开更多

A Mach Zehnder interferometer with a microscopic objective is used to record the wave fields at different distance& and the phase maps are extracted by Fourier transform of the interference intensities. We study the evolutions of the heptad vortex array with distance from the sample to the object plane. To explain the formations and the evolutions of the vortex array, we calculate the diffracted wave fields with Kirchhoff's diffraction theory. The calculations are basically consistent with the experimental results, and the properties of the heptad vortex array structure are reasonably explained.展开更多

Interracial momentum transfer that accommodated various interracial forces including drag force, lift force, virtual mass force, and turbulent dispersion force was considered. Predicted results agree well vaith experimental measurements of the water model in two-phase flow pattern and vortex flow structures. Three typical flow patterns with different argon steel ratios (ASRs) have been obtained: "double roll", "three roll", and "single roll". The flow pattern inside the mold alternates among the three types or it may attain some intermedi ate condition. With increasing ASR, the positions of vortices move from the submerged entry nozzle to the narrow face of the mold, and the sizes of vortices are reduced gradually. The rotating directions of vortices are all from high velocity area to low velocity area. Two mechanisms of vortex formation on the top surface have been suggested, i. e. , congruous shear flow and incongruous shear flow.展开更多

The phase of the quadratic vortex beam increases with azimuthal angle nonlinearly. This change in phase produces several unexpected effects. Unlike the circularly symmetric beam spot of normal vortex beams, the intensity distribution of the quadratic vortex beam is shown to be asymmetric. The phase singularities will shift in the transverse beam plane on propagation.展开更多

Based on experiments, there are two main reasons which can be usedto explain the hysteresis of vortex breakdown. One is the time or phase lag due to the ini-tial suPerPOsition of linearized small disturbance, which enlarges the range of the incidenceof keeping attached flow and postpones the initial incidence of vortex breakdown. Theother is the reduction of adverse pressure gradient due to the periphery centrifugal instabil-ity after the concentrated vortex has come into being, which is the key reason of hystere-sis of vortex breakdown- The structure of vortex over a pitching up delta wing can be di-vided into three layers, which is not a significant a1teration compared with that of vortexover a static delta wing.展开更多
