Quantum Numbers

49.9K
It is said that the energy of an electron in an atom is quantized; that is, it can be equal only to certain specific values and can jump from one energy level to another but not transition smoothly or stay between these levels.

Buffer Systems in the Body01:19

Buffer Systems in the Body

3.8K
Chemical buffers play a critical role in the body's regulation of pH levels. These systems contain one or more compounds that stabilize pH changes by neutralizing strong acids or bases. When pH levels drop, hydrogen ions bind to a weak base; when pH levels rise, hydrogen ions are released. This dynamic process helps maintain pH within a narrow and stable range essential for normal physiological function.
A typical buffer system in bodily fluids includes a weak acid and its corresponding...

Orthogonal Trajectories01:26

Orthogonal Trajectories

47
Orthogonal trajectories describe the geometric relationship between two families of curves that intersect each other at right angles. One illustrative case involves a family of parabolas that open sideways along the x-axis. These curves share a common shape but differ by a scaling parameter, resulting in a set of curves that all pass through the origin and widen at different rates.Determining Orthogonal TrajectoriesTo identify the orthogonal trajectories for these parabolas, the first step...

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom

57.1K
Shortly after de Broglie published his ideas that the electron in a hydrogen atom could be better thought of as being a circular standing wave instead of a particle moving in quantized circular orbits, Erwin Schrödinger extended de Broglie’s work by deriving what is now known as the Schrödinger equation. When Schrödinger applied his equation to hydrogen-like atoms, he was able to reproduce Bohr’s expression for the energy and, thus, the Rydberg formula governing hydrogen spectra.

Power Dissipated in a Circuit: Problem Solving

1.6K
The equivalent resistance of a combination of resistors depends on their values and how they are connected.
The simplest combinations of resistors are series and parallel connections. In a series circuit, the first resistor's output current flows into the second resistor's input; therefore, each resistor's current is the same. Thus, the equivalent resistance is the algebraic sum of the resistances. The current through the circuit can be found from Ohm's law and is equal to the...

Second Order systems II01:18

Second Order systems II

406
In an underdamped second-order system, where the damping ratio ζ is between 0 and 1, a unit-step input results in a transfer function that, when transformed using the inverse Laplace method, reveals the output response. The output exhibits a damped sinusoidal oscillation, and the difference between the input and output is termed the error signal. This error signal also demonstrates damped oscillatory behavior. Eventually, as the system reaches a steady state, the error diminishes to zero.

Area of Science:

  • Quantum Many-Body Physics
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Open Quantum Systems

Background:

  • Orthogonality catastrophe describes the loss of overlap between initial and final states in quantum systems after a perturbation.
  • Local dissipation introduces environmental interactions, leading to decoherence and state evolution.
  • Understanding these phenomena is crucial for quantum information processing and condensed matter theory.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate an analog of orthogonality catastrophe in quantum many-body systems subjected to local dissipative impurities.
  • To analyze the fidelity's time evolution and its scaling behavior under dissipation.
  • To explore the interplay between long-range correlations, dissipation, and decoherence.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a second-order cumulant expansion for Liouvillian dynamics.
  • Analytical derivation of the fidelity's universal scaling form F(t)∝t^{θ}e^{-γt}.
  • Application and substantiation of the theoretical framework to specific models.

Main Results:

  • A universal fidelity scaling F(t)∝t^{θ}e^{-γt} was identified in systems with long-range correlations under local dissipation.
  • The exponential decay rate γ signifies environmental decoherence, critically slowed by an algebraic fidelity contribution.
  • The phenomenon was demonstrated in the 1D transverse field quantum Ising model, XY and XX spin chains, and 2D Bose gas.

Conclusions:

  • Local dissipative impurities can induce an analog of orthogonality catastrophe in quantum many-body systems.
  • This effect leads to a universal fidelity scaling that combines algebraic and exponential decay.
  • Local dissipation offers a potential route to probe real-time correlations and delay decoherence in open quantum systems.
