Bifurcation of Dividing Surfaces Constructed from a Pitchfork Bifurcation of Periodic Orbits in a Symmetric Potential Energy Surface with a Post-Transition-State Bifurcation

In this work, we analyze the bifurcation of dividing surfaces that occurs as a result of a pitchfork bifurcation of periodic orbits in a two degrees of freedom Hamiltonian System. The potential energy surface of the system that we consider has four critical points: two minima, a high energy saddle and a lower energy saddle separating two wells (minima). In this paper, we study the structure, the range, and the minimum and maximum extent of the periodic orbit dividing surfaces of the family of periodic orbits of the lower saddle as a function of the total energy.

Non-Symmetrical W-potential in Nonlinear Biophysics of Microtubules

In this work, we study nonlinear dynamics of microtubules. An important interaction among constitutive particles is modeled using W-potential. We compare a symmetric potential with two kinds of non-symmetric ones. An advantage of the latter ones is demonstrated.

Quantum information entropy and squeezing of 𝒫𝒯-symmetric potential

The information theoretic concepts are crucial to study the quantum mechanical systems. In this paper, the information densities of [Formula: see text]-symmetric potential have been demonstrated and their properties deeply analyzed. The position space and momentum space information entropy is obtained and Bialynicki-Birula–Mycielski inequality is saturated for different parameters of the potential. Some interesting features of information entropy have been discussed. The variation in these entropies is described which gets saturated for specific values of the parameter. These have also been analyzed for the [Formula: see text]-symmetry breaking case. Further, the entropy squeezing phenomenon has been investigated in position space as well as momentum space. Interestingly, [Formula: see text] phase transition conjectures the entropy squeezing in position space and momentum space.

Quantum-Mechanical Brayton Engine for the Nonrelativistic Particle Trapped in a Symmetric Potential Box

A theoretical quantum Brayton engine research has been carried out using a potential box system to increase its thermal efficiency. The method applied in this research is a classical thermodynamics system model in the form of a piston tube containing a monatomic ideal gas analogous to a quantum model in the form of a potential box containing one particle. The efficiency formulation of the quantum Brayton engine obtained from this study is following the classical version. However, the efficiency value obtained on a quantum Brayton engine is higher when compared to its classic. It happens because the value of the Laplace constant owned by the Brayton quantum version is 3, while the classic version is 5/3.

Gravitating Bubbles of Gluon Plasma above Deconfinement Temperature

The equation of state of SU(3) Yang–Mills theory can be modelled by an effective Z3−symmetric potential depending on the temperature and on a complex scalar field ϕ. Allowing ϕ to be dynamical opens the way to the study of spatially localized classical configurations of the scalar field. We first show that spherically symmetric static Q-balls exist in the range (1−1.21)×Tc, Tc being the deconfinement temperature. Then we argue that Q-holes solutions, if any, are unphysical within our framework. Finally, we couple our matter Lagrangian to Einstein gravity and show that spherically symmetric static boson stars exist in the same range of temperature. The Q-ball and boson-star solutions we find can be interpreted as “bubbles” of deconfined gluonic matter; their mean radius is always smaller than 10 fm.
