چکیده

We consider the transport of dynamically passive quantities in the Batchelor regime of a smooth in space velocity field. For the case of arbitrary temporal correlations of the velocity, we formulate the statistics of relevant characteristics of Lagrangian motion. This allows us to generalize many results obtained previously for strain delta correlated in time, thus answering a question about the universality of these results.

Singlet scalar dark matter in noncommutative space

In this paper, we examine the singlet scalar dark matter annihilation to becoming the Standard Model particles in the non-commutative space. In the recent decades, many candidates of dark matter have been offered,  but our information about  the nature of dark matter is still limited. There are such particle candidates as  scalar matetr, fermion, boson, gauge boson, etc.; however, they have nei...

Finite temperature correlation function of two dissipative massive scalar fields: Thermofield approach

The present paper aims at investigating the manner of two dissipative massive scalar fields. Two massive scalar fields that interact with a reservoir were considered and a reservoir was modeled by continuum Klein-Gordon fields. The Lagrangian of the total system was canonically quantized and the dynamics of the system was determined using the Euler-Lagrange equation. Then, the explicit form of the...

1 v 1 3 1 Ju l 1 99 8 Dissipation statistics of a passive scalar in a multidimensional smooth flow ∗

We compute analytically the probability distribution function P(ε) of the dissipation field ε = (∇θ)2 of a passive scalar θ advected by a d-dimensional random flow, in the limit of large Peclet and Prandtl numbers (Batchelor-Kraichnan regime). The tail of the distribution is a stretched exponential: for ε → ∞, lnP(ε) ∼ −(d2ε)1/3. PACS numbers: 47.10.+g, 47.27.-i, 05.40.+j

Turbulent Decay of a Passive Scalar in Batchelor Limit: Exact Results from a Quantum-Mechanical Approach

We show that the decay of a passive scalar θ advected by a random incompressible flow with zero correlation time in Batchelor limit can be mapped exactly to a certain quantum-mechanical system with a finite number of degrees of freedom. The Schrödinger equation is derived and its solution is analyzed for the case when at the beginning the scalar has Gaussian statistics with correlation function...

Nowadays, a rapid growth in the rate of life expectancy can be seen especially in the developed countries. Accordingly, the population of elderlies has been increased. By another point of view, the number of hospitals, retirement homes along with medical staffs has not been grown with a same rate. Hence, Home Health Care (HHC) operations including a set of nurses and patients have been develope...
