Convective and absolute instabilities of fluid flows in finite geometry
Dynamics of linear and nonlinear waves in driven dissipative systems in finite domains are considered. In many cases (for example, due to rotation) the waves travel preferentially in one direction. Such waves cannot be reflected from boundaries. As a consequence in the convectively unstable regime the waves ultimately decay; only when the threshold for absolute instability is exceeded can the w...
متن کاملTrapped individual ion at absolute zero temperature.
Laser cooling and ion trapping have progressed to such an extent that one can now speak of realizing a confined atom at absolute zero temperature. In this short publication, we analyze an experiment toward such realization using a single Ba(+) ion in a miniature rf trap. The Ba(+) ion is first laser-cooled to the limit where the ion spends most of its time in the zero-point energy state. Then a...
متن کاملNotes on decoherence at absolute zero
The problem of electron decoherence at low-temperature is analyzed from the perspective of recent experiments on decoherence rate measurement and on related localization phenomena in low-dimensional systems. The importance of decoherence at zero temperature, perhaps induced by quantum #uctuations, is put in a broader context. ( 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملThe quantum refrigerator: The quest for absolute zero
The emergence of the laws of thermodynamics from the laws of quantum mechanics is an unresolved issue. The generation of the third law of thermodynamics from quantum dynamics is analysed. The scaling of the optimal cooling power of a reciprocating quantum refrigerator is sought as a function of the cold bath temperature as Tc → 0. The working medium consists of noninteracting particles in a har...
