Bechgaard, K.N. Clausen, R. Feidenhans'l and I. Johannsen Ris0 National Laboratory, Roskilde, Denmark January 1998 Abstract The Condensed Matter Physics and Chemistry Department is concerned with both fundamental and applied research into the physical and chemical properties of materials. The principal activities in the year 1997 are presented in this progress report. The research in physics is concentrated on neutron and x-ray scattering measurements and the problems studied include two- and three-dimensional structures, magnetic ordering and spin dynamics, superconductivity, phase transitions and nano-scale structures. The research in chemistry includes chemical synthesis and physico-chemical investigation of small molecules and polymers, with emphasis on polymers with new optical properties, block copolymers, surface-modified polymers, and supramolecular structures. Theoretical work related to these problems is undertaken, including Monte Carlo simulations, computer simulation of molecules and polymers and methods of data analysis.

  • Quantum Discrimination of Noisy Photon-Added Coherent States Stefano Guerrini , Student Member, IEEE, Moe Z
    IEEE JOURNAL ON SELECTED AREAS IN INFORMATION THEORY, VOL. 1, NO. 2, AUGUST 2020 469 Quantum Discrimination of Noisy Photon-Added Coherent States Stefano Guerrini , Student Member, IEEE, Moe Z. Win , Fellow, IEEE, Marco Chiani , Fellow, IEEE,and Andrea Conti , Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—Quantum state discrimination (QSD) is a key enabler in quantum sensing and networking, for which we envision the utility of non-coherent quantum states such as photon-added coherent states (PACSs). This paper addresses the problem of discriminating between two noisy PACSs. First, we provide representation of PACSs affected by thermal noise during state preparation in terms of Fock basis and quasi-probability distributions. Then, we demonstrate that the use of PACSs instead of coherent states can significantly reduce the error probability in QSD. Finally, we quantify the effects of phase diffusion and pho- ton loss on QSD performance. The findings of this paper reveal the utility of PACSs in several applications involving QSD. Index Terms—Quantum state discrimination, photon-added coherent state, quantum noise, quantum communications. I. INTRODUCTION Fig. 1. Illustration of binary QSD with PACSs: hypotheses are described by UANTUM STATE DISCRIMINATION (QSD) the Wigner functions corresponding to the quantum states. Q addresses the problem of identifying an unknown state among a set of quantum states [1]–[3]. QSD enables several applications including quantum communications [4]– [6], quantum sensing [7]–[9], quantum illumination [10]–[12], QSD applications. In particular, continuous-variable quantum quantum cryptography [13]–[15], quantum networks [16]– states have been considered in quantum optics as they supply [18], and quantum computing [19]–[21].

  • Machine Learning for Condensed Matter Physics
    Review Article Machine Learning for Condensed Matter Physics Edwin A. Bedolla-Montiel1, Luis Carlos Padierna1 and Ram´on Casta~neda-Priego1 1 Divisi´onde Ciencias e Ingenier´ıas,Universidad de Guanajuato, Loma del Bosque 103, 37150 Le´on,Mexico E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Condensed Matter Physics (CMP) seeks to understand the microscopic interactions of matter at the quantum and atomistic levels, and describes how these interactions result in both mesoscopic and macroscopic properties. CMP overlaps with many other important branches of science, such as Chemistry, Materials Science, Statistical Physics, and High-Performance Computing. With the advancements in modern Machine Learning (ML) technology, a keen interest in applying these algorithms to further CMP research has created a compelling new area of research at the intersection of both fields. In this review, we aim to explore the main areas within CMP, which have successfully applied ML techniques to further research, such as the description and use of ML schemes for potential energy surfaces, the characterization of topological phases of matter in lattice systems, the prediction of phase transitions in off-lattice and atomistic simulations, the interpretation of ML theories with physics- inspired frameworks and the enhancement of simulation methods with ML algorithms. We also discuss in detial the main challenges and drawbacks of using ML methods on CMP problems, as well as some perspectives for future developments.

  • Calorimetric Study on Kinetics of Mesophase Transition in Thermotropic Copolyesters
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Directory of Open Access Journals IJRRAS 3 (1) ● April 2010 Talukdar & Achary ● Study on Kinetics of Mesophase Transition CALORIMETRIC STUDY ON KINETICS OF MESOPHASE TRANSITION IN THERMOTROPIC COPOLYESTERS Malabika Talukdar & P.Ganga Raju Achary Department Of Chemistry, Institute Of Technical Education and Research (ITER), S ‘O’A University, Bhubaneswar, Orissa, India ABSTRACT Macromolecular crystallization behaviour, especially those of liquid crystalline polymers, has been a subject of great interest. The crystallization process for the polyester samples under discussion are analyzed assuming a nucleation controlled process and by using the Avrami equation. The study mainly deals with the crystallization process from the mesophase of two thermotropic liquid crystalline polyesters exhibiting smectic order in their mesophasic state. In order to analyze crystallization behavior of the polyesters, crystallization rate constant and the Avrami exponent have been estimated. Total heat of crystallization and entropy change during the transition has been calculated for both the polyesters. Keywords: Crystallization; Mesophase; Nucleation; Orthorhombic; Smectic. 1. INTRODUCTION The transition kinetics of liquid crystal polymers appears to be of great interest in order to control the effect of processing conditions on the morphology as well as on the final properties of the materials. These LC polymers show at least three main transitions: a glass transition, a thermotropic transition from the crystal to the mesophase and the transition from the mesophase to the isotropic melt. The kinetics of phase transition in liquid crystals may be analyzed for three different processes, the three dimensional ordering from both the isotropic melt state and the mesophase and the formation of the mesophase from the isotropic melt.

It crosses traditional departmental walls and now provides a common focus and unifying perspective for many activities that formerly would have been separated into a variety of disciplines, such as mathematics, physics, biophysics, chemistry, chemical en- gineering, materials science. It brings together scientists, mathematicians and engineers to study materials such as colloids, micelles, biological, and granular matter, but is much less tied to certain materials, technologies, or applications than to the generic and unifying organizing principles governing them. In the widest sense, the field of soft matter comprises all applications of the principles of statistical mechanics to condensed matter that is not dominated by quantum effects.
