Order parameter at the boundary of a trapped Bose gas.
Through a suitable expansion of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation near the classical turning point, we obtain an explicit solution for the order parameter at the boundary of a trapped Bose gas interacting with repulsive forces. The kinetic energy of the system, in terms of the classical radius R and of the harmonic oscillator length a HO , follows the law Ekin/N ∝ R [log(R/a HO ) + const.], approac...
متن کاملConductivity structure of the lithosphereasthenosphere boundary beneath the eastern North American margin
Tectonic plate motion and mantle dynamics processes are heavily influenced by the characteristics of the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB), yet this boundary remains enigmatic regarding its properties and geometry. The processes involved in rifting at passive margins result in substantial alteration of the lithosphere through the transition from continental to oceanic lithologies. Here w...
متن کاملTHE STEFAN PROBLEM WITH KINETIC FUNCTIONS AT THE FREE BOUNDARY
This paper considers a class of one-dimensional solidification problem in which kinetic undercooling is incorporated into the temperature condition at the interface. A model problem with nonlinear kinetic law is considered. The main result is an existence theorem. The mathematical effects of the kinetic term are discussed
متن کاملOn the boundary of the region containing trapped surfaces
The boundary of the region in spacetime containing future-trapped closed surfaces is considered. In asymptotically flat spacetimes, this boundary does not need to be the event horizon nor a dynamical/trapping horizon. Some properties of this boundary and its localization are analyzed, and illustrated with examples. In particular, fully explicit future-trapped compact surfaces penetrating into f...
متن کاملObservations of Boundary Mixing Over the Continental Slope
Towed-body observations of mixing over the continental slope reveal the great lateral extent (several km) of continuously turbulent fluid within a few hundred meters of the boundary at 1600 m depth. The largest turbulent dissipation rates were observed over a 5 km horizontal region near a slope critical to the M2 internal tide. Averaged over a submarine landslide oriented perpendicularly to the...
