Path-Integral Monte Carlo Study on a Droplet of a Dipolar Bose–Einstein Condensate Stabilized by Quantum Fluctuation

Abstract: Motivated by recent experiments [H. Kadau et al., Nature (London) 530, 194 (2016); I. Ferrier-Barbut et al., arXiv:1601.03318] and theoretical prediction (F. Wachtler and L. Santos, arXiv:1601.04501), the ground state of a dysprosium Bose–Einstein condensate with strong dipole–dipole interaction is studied by the path-integral Monte Carlo method. It is shown that quantum fluctuation can stabilize the condensate against dipolar collapse.

Pre-DECIGO can get the smoking gun to decide the astrophysical or cosmological origin of GW150914-like binary black holes

Abstract: Pre-DECIGO consists of three spacecraft arranged in an equilateral triangle with 100km arm lengths orbiting 2000km above the surface of the earth. It is hoped that the launch date will be in the late 2020s. Pre-DECIGO has one clear target: binary black holes (BBHs) like GW150914 and GW151226. Pre-DECIGO can detect $\sim 30M_\odot-30M_\odot$ BBH mergers up to redshift $z\sim 30$. The cumulative event rate is $\sim 1.8\times 10^{5}\,{\rm events~yr^{-1}}$ in the Pop III origin model of BBHs like GW150914, and it saturates at $z\sim 10$, while in the primordial BBH (PBBH) model, the cumulative event rate is $ \sim 3\times 10^{4}\,{\rm events~ yr^{-1}}$ at $z=30$ even if only $0.1\%$ of the dark matter consists of PBHs, and it is still increasing at $z=30$. In the Pop I/II model of BBHs, the cumulative event rate is $(3-10)\times10^{5}\,{\rm events~ yr^{-1}}$ and it saturates at $z \sim 6$. We present the requirements on orbit accuracy, drag free techniques, laser power, frequency stability, and interferometer test mass. For BBHs like GW150914 at 1Gpc, SNR$\sim 90$ is achieved with the definition of Pre-DECIGO in the $0.01-100$Hz band. Pre-DECIGO can measure the mass spectrum and the $z$-dependence of the merger rate to distinguish various models of BBHs like GW150914. Pre-DECIGO can also predict the direction of BBHs at $z=0.1$ with an accuracy of $\sim 0.3\,{\rm deg}^2$ and a merging time accuracy of $\sim 1$s at about a day before the merger so that ground-based GW detectors further developed at that time as well as electromagnetic follow-up observations can prepare for the detection of merger in advance. For intermediate mass BBHs at a large redshift $z > 10$, the QNM frequency after the merger can be within the Pre-DECIGO band so that the ringing tail can also be detectable to confirm the Einstein theory of general relativity with SNR$\sim 35$.

Atom localization via Ramsey interferometry: A coherent cavity field provides a better resolution

Abstract: We investigate the position localization of a polarized atom interacting with an off-resonant quantized standing-wave field. We show that a coherent cavity field achieves a higher resolution than a classical field. An almost perfect localization is possible when the atom passes through several identically prepared cavities.

STARMINE: a visualization system for cyber attacks

Abstract: In cyber attack monitoring systems, various types of visualizations, such as geographical visualization, temporal visualization, logical visualization, are being used Each visualization has its own advantages and disadvantages Since it is important to analyze the information from different viewpoints and to make a right decision in practical cyber attack monitoring, these visualization should be highly integratedThis paper describes a visualization system for cyber threat monitoring named STARMINE, which integrates three different views, that is geographical, temporal, and logical views, of the cyber threat in 3-D space Since three views are seen simultaneously and are synchronized, it is helpful for administrators to analyze the threats much more easily As an example, the propagation of SasserD worm were shown

Diode-pumped ultrashort-pulse generation based on Yb(3+):Sc(2)O(3) and Yb(3+):Y(2)O(3) ceramic multi-gain-media oscillator.

Abstract: Diode-pumped mode-locked laser operation based on Yb(3+):Sc(2)O(3) and Yb(3+):Y(2)O(3) multi-gain-media oscillator has been demonstrated. 66-fs pulse duration with an average power of 1.5 W and 53-fs pulse duration with an average power of 1 W under 8-W laser diode pumping were achieved. The optical-to-optical efficiency was 18.8%. Additionally, 68-fs pulse duration with an average power of 540 mW from Yb(3+):Y(2)O(3) ceramic was also obtained.
