The photoluminescence spectra from a quantum-dot exciton weakly-coupled to a planar photonic-crystal cavity is experimentally investigated by temperature tuning. Significant resonance shifts of the cavity mode are observed as the cavity mode spectrally approaches that of the exciton mode, showing the appearance of cavity-to-exciton attraction or mode pulling. Cavity-mode spectral shifts are als...

We present a theoretical framework for higher-order correlation functions involving multiple times and multiple points in a classical, many-body system. Such higher-order correlation functions have attracted much interest recently in the context of various forms of multidimensional spectroscopy, and have found an intriguing application as proposed measures of dynamical heterogeneities in struct...

This paper deals with non-Markovian behavior in atomic systems coupled to a structured reservoir of quantum electromagnetic field modes, with particular relevance to atoms interacting with the field in high-Q cavities or photonic band-gap materials. In cases such as the former, we show that the pseudomode theory for single-quantum reservoir excitations can be obtained by applying the Fano diago...

We report results from molecular dynamics studies concerning the microscopic structure and dynamics of the ternary, bulk metallic glass-forming Cu60Ti20Zr20 alloy. In detail we consider the partial radial distribution functions, nearest-neighbor numbers, specific heat, simulated glass temperature, diffusion coefficients, and incoherent intermediate scattering function (ISF). The applied atomic ...

Double-diffusive convection in a micropolar fluid layer heated and soluted from below in the presence of uniform rotation saturating a porous medium is theoretically investigated. An exact solution is obtained for a flat fluid layer contained between two free boundaries. To study the onset of convection, a linear stability analysis theory and normal mode analysis method have been used. For the ...

The r-modes of neutron stars can be driven unstable by gravitational radiation. While linear perturbation theory predicts the existence of this instability, linear theory can’t provide any information about the nonlinear development of the instability. The subject of this paper is the weakly nonlinear regime of fluid dynamics. In the weakly nonlinear regime, the nonlinear fluid equations are ap...

A toy model is proposed which incorporates the reversible mode coupling mechanism responsible for ergodic-nonergodic transition with trivial Hamiltonian in the mode coupling theory (MCT) of structural glass transition. The model can be analyzed without relying on uncontrolled approximations inevitable in the current MCT. The strength of hopping processes can be easily tuned and the Leutheusser-...

An interferometric model is proposed to estimate the phase differences in lossless, strongly coupled biconical fiber couplers. This approximate method is simpler than the traditional s-parameter network theory-based analysis technique and minimizes the number of unknowns. The phase difference between the transmitted and coupled light fields is directly related to the field interaction and can b...
