Wigner introduced a crucial assumption that is not related to Einstein’s local realism, but instead, without justification, to the existence of certain joint probability measures for possible and actual measurement outcomes of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) experiments. His conclusions about Einstein’s local realism are, therefore, not applicable to EPR experiments and the contradiction of the experimental outcomes to Wigner’s results has no bearing on the validity of Einstein’s local realism.展开更多

For example, in DFT (density functional theory) calculations on modern supercomputers 10% to 30% of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of huge dense matrices have to be calculated. Therefore, performance and parallel scaling of the used eigensolvers is of upmost interest. In this article different routines of the linear algebra packages ScaLAPACK and Elemental for parallel solution of the symmetric eigenvalue problem are compared concerning their performance on the BlueGene/P supercomputer. Parameters for performance optimization are adjusted for the different data distribution methods used in the two libraries. It is found that for all test cases the new library Elemental which uses a two-dimensional element by element distribution of the matrices to the processors shows better performance than the old ScaLAPACK library which uses a block-cyclic distribution.展开更多

Using two Monte Carlo event generators, Herwig and Pythia, to simulate the production of heavy meson pairs, we derive an order-of-magnitude estimate of the production rates for these four particles. Our estimates yield a cross section at the nb level for the Zb(10610) and Zb(10650). The results for the Zc(3900) and Zc (4020) are larger by a factor of 2~30. These cross sections are large enough to be observed, and measurements at hadron colliders in the future will supplement the study using electron-positron collisions, and therefore allow to explore the mysterious nature of these exotic states.展开更多

It is considered by many to be a postulate that not only is commensurate with classical physics (as for example Einstein’s special relativity), but also separates and distinguishes classical physics from quantum mechanics. It is the purpose of this paper to show that Bell’s choice of mathematical functions and independent variables implicitly includes counterfactual definiteness. However, his particular choice of variables reduces the generality of his theory, as well as the physics of all Bell-type theories, so significantly that no meaningful comparison of these theories with actual Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiments can be made.展开更多

文摘Counterfactual definiteness must be used as at least one of the postulates or axioms that are necessary to derive Bell-type inequalities. It is considered by many to be a postulate that not only is commensurate with classical physics (as for example Einstein’s special relativity), but also separates and distinguishes classical physics from quantum mechanics. It is the purpose of this paper to show that Bell’s choice of mathematical functions and independent variables implicitly includes counterfactual definiteness. However, his particular choice of variables reduces the generality of his theory, as well as the physics of all Bell-type theories, so significantly that no meaningful comparison of these theories with actual Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiments can be made.

文摘Machine learning has become a premier tool in physics and other fields of science.It has been shown that the quantum mechanical scattering problem cannot only be solved with such techniques,but it was argued that the underlying neural network develops the Bom series for shallow potentials.However,classical machine learning algorithms fail in the unitary limit of an infinite scattering length.The unitary limit plays an important role in our understanding of bound strongly interacting fermionic systems and can be realized in cold atom experiments.Here,we develop a formalism that explains the unitary limit in terms of what we define as unitary limit surfaces.This not only allows to investigate the unitary limit geometrically in potential space,but also provides a numerically simple approach towards unnaturally large scattering lengths with standard multilayer perceptrons.Its scope is therefore not limited to applications in nuclear and atomic physics,but includes all systems that exhibit an unnaturally large scale.

文摘based on our analysis of the contributions from the connected and disconnected contraction diagrams to the pion-kaon scattering amplitude,we provide the first determination of the only free low-energy constant at O(p^(4)),known as L_(0)^(r),in SU(4|1)Partially-Quenched Chiral Perturbation theory using the data from the Extended Twisted Mass collaboration,L_(0)^(r)(μ=M_(ρ))=0.77(20)(25)(7)(7)(2)·10^(-3).The theory uncertainties originate from the unphysical scattering length,the physical low-energy constants,the higher-order chiral corrections,the(lattice)meson masses and the pion decay constant,respectively.

文摘The internal structure of the charm-strange mesons D_(s0)^(*)(2317)and D_(s1)(2460)are the subject of intensive studies.Their widths are small because they decay dominantly through isospinbreaking hadronic channels D_(s0)^(*)(2317)^(+)→D_(s)^(+)π^(0) and D _(s1)(2460)^(+)→D_(s)^(*+)π^(0).The D_(s1)(2460)can also decay into the hadronic final states D_(s)^(+)ππ,conserving isospin.In that case there is,however,a strong suppression from phase space.We study the transition D_(s1)(2460)^(+)→D_(s)^(+)π^(+)π^(-)in the scenario that the D_(s1)(2460)is a D^(*)K hadronic molecule.The ππ final state interaction is taken into account through dispersion relations.We find that the ratio of the partial widths of the Γ(D_(s1)(2460)^(+)→D_(s)^(+)π^(+)π^(-)) / Γ(D_(s1)(2460)^(+)→D_(s)^(*+)π^(0))obtained in the molecular picture is consistent with the existing experimental measurement.More interestingly,we demonstrate that theπ+π−invariant mass distribution shows a double bump structure,which can be used to disentangle the hadronic molecular picture from the compact state picture for the D_(s1)(2460)^(+).Predictions on the B_(s1)^(0)→B_(s)^(0)π^(+)π^(-)are also made.

文摘Broadband lasers have been proposed as future drivers of inertial confined fusion(ICF)to enhance the laser-target coupling efficiency via the mitigation of various parametric instabilities.The physical mechanisms involved have been explored recently,but are not yet fully understood.Here,stimulated Raman scattering(SRS)as one of the key parametric instabilities is investigated theoretically and numerically for a broadband laser propagating in homogeneous plasma in multidimensional geometry.The linear SRS growth rate is derived as a function of scattering angles for two monochromatic laser beams with a fixed frequency differenceδω.Ifδω/ω_(0)∼1%,withω0 the laser frequency,these two laser beams may be decoupled in stimulating backward SRS while remaining coupled for sideward SRS at the laser intensities typical for ICF.Consequently,side-scattering may dominate over backward SRS for two-color laser light.This finding of SRS transition from backward to sideward SRS is then generalized for a broadband laser with a few-percent bandwidth.Particle-in-cell simulations demonstrate that with increasing laser bandwidth,the sideward SRS gradually becomes dominant over the backward SRS.Since sideward SRS is very efficient in producing harmful hot electrons,attention needs to be paid on this effect if ultra-broadband lasers are considered as next-generation ICF drivers.

文摘Quantum electrodynamics is often considered to be a trivial theory.This is based on a number of evidences,both numerical and analytical.One of the strong indications for triviality of QED is the existence of the Landau pole for the running coupling.We show that by treating QED as the leading order approximation of an effective field theory and including the next-to-leading order corrections,the Landau pole is removed.We also analyze the cutoff dependence of the bare coupling at two-loop order and conclude that the conjecture,that for reasons of self-consistency,QED needs to be trivial is a mere artefact of the leading order approximation to the corresponding effective field theory.

文摘We discuss the X(5568)particle recently announced by the D0 Collaboration.Several types of models were proposed to explain this structure in the literature.As pointed out by Burns and Swanson(ar Xiv:1603.04366),none of them provides a satisfactory description of the observation.We provide additional arguments using general properties of QCD,and conclude that the observation of the X(5568),if confirmed,poses serious challenges to our understanding of nonperturbative QCD.

文摘The Wilsonian renormalization group approach to the Lippmann-Schwinger equation with a multitude of cutoff parameters is introduced.A system of integro-differential equations for the cutoff-dependent potential is obtained.As an illustration,a perturbative solution of these equations with two cutoff parameters for a simple case of an S-wave low-energy potential in the form of a Taylor series in momenta is obtained.The relevance of the obtained results for the effective field theory approach to nucleon-nucleon scattering is discussed.

文摘Magicity,or shell closure,plays an important role in our understanding of complex nuclear phenomena.In this work,we employ one of the state-of-the-art density functional theories,the deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov theory in continuum(DRHBc)with the density functional PC-PK1,to investigate the evolution of the N=20,28,50 shell closures in the 20≤Z≤30 region.We show how these three conventional shell closures evolve from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line by studying the charge radii,two-neutron separation energies,two-neutron gaps,quadrupole deformations,and single-particle levels.In particular,we find that in the 21≤Z≤27 region,the N=50 shell closure disappears or becomes quenched,mainly due to the deformation effects.Similarly,both experimental data and theoretical predictions indicate that the N=28 shell closure disappears in the Mn isotopic chain,mainly due to the deformation effects.The DRHBc theory predicts the existence of the N=20 shell closure in the Ca,Sc,and Ti isotopic chains,but the existing data for the Ti isotopes suggest the contrary,and therefore further research is needed.
