Fractal Renewal Processes Generate 1/f Noise Typeset Using Revt E X 1

چکیده
1=f D noise occurs in an impressive variety of physical systems, and numerous complex theories have been proposed to explain it. We construct two relatively simple renewal processes whose power spectral densities vary as 1=f D : 1) a standard renewal point process, with 0 < D < 1; and 2) a nite-valued alternating renewal process, with 0 < D < 2. The resulting event number statistics, coincidence rates, minimal coverings, and autocorrelation functions are shown also to follow power-law forms. These fractal characteristics derive from interevent-time probability density functions which themselves decay in a power-law fashion. A number of applications are considered: trapping in amorphous semiconductors, electronic burst noise, movement in systems with fractal boundaries, the digital generation of 1=f D noise, and ionic currents in cell membranes.

Infrared Divergences and Non-lightlike Eikonal Lines in Sudakov Processes Typeset Using Revt E X 1
We propose a method to analyze infrared contributions to non-inclusive processes in QCD. We use the one-loop Sudakov form factor as a working example. Borrowing techniques from renormalization theory, we construct coun-terterms for the contributions from the soft and collinear regions, and we relate them to eikonal Wilson lines taken along non-lightlike directions.
متن کاملFiltering Number States of the Vibrational Motion of an Ion Typeset Using Revt E X
We propose a scheme to generate number states, and specific superpositions of them, of the vibrational motion of a trapped ion via laser excitation of two vibronic transitions. Without detrimental effects on the internal state preparation , the ion can be initially in thermal motion and undergo spontaneous emission. In particular, robust to noise qubits (α|0 + β|1 states) can be generated with ...
متن کاملEntrainment and Communication with Dissipative Pseudorandom Dynamics Typeset Using Revt E X
We introduce a new class of dynamical systems, analog generalizations of linear feedback shift registers, that can be designed with any number of degrees of freedom, generate optimal pseudo-random noise, and exhibit nonlinear dis-sipative entrainment which can be used to decode signals in communication and measurement applications.

The HQET/NRQCD Lagrangian is computed to order α/m3. The computation is performed using dimensional regularization to regulate the ultraviolet and infrared divergences. The results are consistent with reparametrization invariance to order 1/m3. Some subtleties in the matching conditions for NRQCD are discussed. Typeset using REVTEX 1

Observation of the e/3 fractionally charged Laughlin quasiparticles. Abstract The existence of fractional charges carrying the current is experimentally demonstrated. Using a 2-D electron system in high perpendicular magnetic field we measure the shot noise associated with tunneling in the fractional quantum Hall regime at Landau level filling factor 1/3. The noise gives a direct determination ...
