Variational Monte Carlo Optimization Of Proton-Proton Scattering Potential Using The Phase Function Method, Shikha Awasthi, Anil Khachi, O.S.K.S. Sastri

Turkish Journal of Physics

The Riccati-type nonlinear differential equation, also known as the Phase Function equation, is used to construct local inverse potentials for the 1S0 - pp state by bypassing the well-known Schrödinger equation. The pp interaction is described using the Malfliet-Tjon potential model for the nuclear component combined with a screened Coulomb potential, with the phase equation solved via the fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK-4) method. Based on our analysis, we confirm that the optimized interaction potential closely matches the well-known realistic Argonne V18 and Reid potentials for the 1S0 state, and the computed phase shifts and cross-sections show excellent agreement with experimental data. …

Rapidly rotating atomic gases provide a platform for studying phenomena akin to type-II superconductors and quantum Hall systems. Recently, these systems have attracted renewed interest due to technological advances in the trap anisotropy control, in-situ observation capabilities, and cooling and rotating complex atomic species such as dipolar gases. Understanding the vortex lattice formation and quantum melting is crucial for exploring quantum Hall physics in these systems. In this paper, we theoretically investigate the vortex lattices in anisotropic quantum gases. We formulate the rotating gas Hamiltonian in the Landau gauge, and consider the effects of additional perturbations such as the trap …

Additionally, we introduce new potential models that extend the radial oscillator by incorporating rational terms. Comprehensive analyses of the potential, energy levels, and probability density graphs are provided for various topological defects of cosmic strings and different parameters of the …

Quantum Singular Oscillator With Potential Controlled By Position-Dependent Mass, Elchin Jafarov, Shakir Nagiyev Dec 2024

Quantum Singular Oscillator With Potential Controlled By Position-Dependent Mass, Elchin Jafarov, Shakir Nagiyev

Turkish Journal of Physics

An exactly solvable model of a nonrelativistic quantum singular oscillator with a controlled potential is constructed. A position-dependent mass is introduced instead of a constant mass of the quantum system under consideration in such a way that it is possible to purposefully control the shape of the potential, turning it into a quantum well with different depths. It is shown that analytical expressions of the wave functions of such a quantum system are described through 2F1 type hypergeometric functions and Jacobi polynomials, whereas, the discrete energy spectrum corresponding to these analytic solutions is non-equidistant. In a specific limit, when the …


Temperature-Dependent Quantum Beats Between Neutral And Charged Excitons In Monolayer Mose2, İbrahi̇m Sarpkaya Oct 2024

Temperature-Dependent Quantum Beats Between Neutral And Charged Excitons In Monolayer Mose2, İbrahi̇m Sarpkaya

Turkish Journal of Physics

We studied the interaction between the neutral and charged excitons of monolayer MoSe2 at various temperatures via quantum beat spectroscopy in the time domain. We introduced temperature as an efficient control knob to regulate the relative photoluminescence intensities of the neutral and charged excitons to obtain maximum quantum beat resolution. Also, our quantum beat measurements under different temperatures indicate that the decoherence time of the coupled exciton-trion state slightly decreases from 530 fs at 3.5 K to 420 fs at 63 K with increased temperature due to the low-energy acoustic phonon-induced dephasing.

Alternative Scenarios For The Lhc Based Electron-Proton Collider, Ahmet Nuri̇ Akay, Burak Dağli, Bora Ketenoğlu, Ari̇f Öztürk, Saleh Sultansoy

Turkish Journal of Physics

Construction of the ERLC (twin LC) collider tangential to LHC will allow investigating ep collisions at essentially higher center-of-mass energies than ERL-50 and LHC based ep collider. Luminosity estimations show that values well exceeding 1034 cm−2s−1 can be achieved for ERLC and HL-LHC based ep colliders. Certainly, proposed ep colliders have great potential for clarifying QCD basics and new physics search in addition to providing precise PDFs for adequate interpretation of the LHC experimental data. Another alternative to the ERL-50 is to construct an e-ring with the same energy and length. In this case, luminosity of order 1034cm−2s−1 can be …

Low Fine-Tuning With Heavy Higgsinos In Yukawa Unified Susy Guts, Cem Salih Ün Feb 2024

Low Fine-Tuning With Heavy Higgsinos In Yukawa Unified Susy Guts, Cem Salih Ün

Turkish Journal of Physics

The work presented considers a class of minimally constructed Yukawa unified SUSY GUTs - NUHM2 - and explores their implications when their soft supersymmetry breaking Lagrangian is generalized by the nonholomorphic terms which provide extra contributions to the Higgsino mass and couple the supersymmetric scalar fields to the wrong Higgs doublets. With such a simple extension, it can be found several regions with interesting implications which cannot be realized in the usual restricted models. It is observed that the Yukawa unification solutions can be compatible with a relatively light mass spectrum and acceptable low fine-tuning measurements. In the restricted models …

A Compendious Review Of Majorization-Based Resource Theories: Quantum Information And Quantum Thermodynamics, Gökhan Torun, Onur Pusuluk, Özgür Esat Müstecaplioğlu

Turkish Journal of Physics

The field of quantum resource theory (QRT) has emerged as an invaluable framework for the examination of small and strongly correlated quantum systems, surpassing the boundaries imposed by traditional statistical treatments. The fundamental objective of general QRTs is to characterize these systems by precisely quantifying the level of control attainable to an experimenter. In this review article, we refrain from providing an exhaustive summary of the extensive literature on QRT. Rather, our focus centers on a specific subliterature founded upon the theory of majorization. The primary aim is to augment our comprehension of genuine quantum phenomena manifested across diverse technological …

Development And Benchmark Of A 1d3v Electrostatic Pic/Mcc Numerical Code For Gas Discharge Simulations, İbrahi̇m Arda, İsmai̇l Rafatov

Turkish Journal of Physics

Gas discharge plasmas are low-temperature nonequilibrium plasmas that have a wide range of scientific and technological applications. The particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo collision (PIC/MCC) method is a reliable approach for numerical analyses and simulations of such plasmas. In this study, we first provide a detailed description of the basics of this method. We then verify the programme code that we developed in Fortran by benchmarking the code against a widely referred reference study simulating a radiofrequency capacitively coupled plasma (RFCCP) in helium for various discharge conditions. We show that the results of the present study are in good agreement with that of …


Speeding The Generation Of Giant Entangled States Using Low-Frequency Modulations, Abdelaziz Benseghir, Azeddine Messikh, Ahmed Bouketir Jan 2023

Speeding The Generation Of Giant Entangled States Using Low-Frequency Modulations, Abdelaziz Benseghir, Azeddine Messikh, Ahmed Bouketir

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper, we generalize the shortcuts to adiabacity for the quantum Rabi model by simultaneously modulating its two components, namely, the two-level system and the cavity mode. This will eliminate the counterrotating terms which in turn helps to simulate the Rabi model by the Jaynes-Cummings model without requiring a largely detuned light-matter coupling. We focus on the low-frequency modulations since it is easy to realize them experimentally. The results show that these modulations can significantly shorten the evaluation time, generate much larger entanglement cat states, and robust against imperfection of time evaluation and dissipation.

Magnetic Response Of A Two-Dimensional Viscous Electron Fluid, Aydin Cem Keser, Oleg Sushkov Jan 2023

Magnetic Response Of A Two-Dimensional Viscous Electron Fluid, Aydin Cem Keser, Oleg Sushkov

Turkish Journal of Physics

It has been established that the Coulomb interactions can transform the electron gas into a viscous fluid. This fluid is realized in a number of platforms, including graphene and two-dimensional semiconductor heterostructures. The defining characteristic of the electron fluid is the formation of layers of charge carriers that are in local thermodynamic equilibrium, as in classical fluids. In the presence of nonuniformities, whirlpools and nontrivial flow profiles are formed, which have been directly imaged in recent experiments. In this paper, we theoretically study the response of the electron fluid to localized magnetic fields. We find that the electric current is …


Sensing Translocating Polymers Via Induced Magnetic Fields, Şahi̇n Büyükdağli Jan 2023

Sensing Translocating Polymers Via Induced Magnetic Fields, Şahi̇n Büyükdağli

Turkish Journal of Physics

The requirement to boost the resolution of nanopore-based biosequencing devices necessitates the integration of novel biosensing techniques with reduced sensitivity to background noise. In this article, we probe the signatures of translocating polymers in magnetic fields induced by ionic currents through membrane nanopores. Within the framework of a previously introduced charge transport theory, we evaluate the magnetic field signals generated by voltage- and pressure-driven DNA translocation events in monovalent salt solutions. Our formalism reveals that in voltage-driven transport, the translocating polymer suppresses the induced magnetic field via the steric blockage of the ion current through the midpore. In the case …

Exploring The High Energy Frontiers Of The Milky Way With Ground-Based Gamma-Ray Astronomy: Pevatrons And The Quest For The Origin Of Galactic Cosmic-Rays, Ekrem Oğuzhan Angüner

Turkish Journal of Physics

Cosmic rays (CRs) are charged particles that arrive at Earth isotropically from all directions and interact with the atmosphere. The presence of a spectral knee feature seen in the CR spectrum at 3 PeV energies is an evidence that astrophysical objects within our Galaxy, which are known as 'Galactic PeVatrons', are capable of accelerating particles to PeV energies. Scientists have been trying to identify the origin of Galactic CRs and have been looking for signatures of Galactic PeVatrons through neutral messengers. Recent advancements in ground-based γ-ray astronomy have led to the discovery of 12 Galactic sources emitting above 100 TeV …

The Exotic Neutral Current introduces new interactions beyond standard model (BSM) which consist of all possible four-fermion nonderivative Lorentz structures: scalar (S), pseudoscalar (P), vector (V), axial-vector (A), and tensor (T). In this work, we investigate the prediction of this model via the Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CE$\nu$NS). The differential cross-section spectrum of CE$\nu$NS for three nuclei in regards to experiment advancement are calculated in the framework of this model independent proposal using recent obtained bound. We present the ratio of this exotic model with the SM for various threshold energies. Significant bound is shown lie in the lower threshold …

Gold Thin-Film Based Narrow-Band Perfect Absorbers For Near-Ir Frequencies, Serap Aksu Jan 2023

Gold Thin-Film Based Narrow-Band Perfect Absorbers For Near-Ir Frequencies, Serap Aksu

Turkish Journal of Physics

Perfect absorbers have received significant attention due to their tunable and extraordinary absorptive behaviour of light at selected wavelenghts. Such absorption can be achieved by the means of nanostructured materials with various types of flexibility. Despite these advantages nanofabrication is a challenging process. In this study, we manufacture and characterize a gold thin-film based ultra narrow-band perfects absorber that does not require nanostructures for full absorption of the incident light. Perfect absorption is based on Fabry-Perot interference created using a metal-insulator-metal triple layer. The fabrication involves precise deposition of a gold film (35 nm) and silicon nitride dielectric film (110-170 …


Relativistic Tunneling Through Two "Transparent" Successive Barriers, Massimo Germano Jan 2022

Relativistic Tunneling Through Two "Transparent" Successive Barriers, Massimo Germano

Turkish Journal of Physics

In the case of tunneling of relativistic particles, differently from the nonrelativistic case, a limit of "transparent" barrier can also lead to an apparent "superluminal" behavior when considering the phase time. In this limit, the restricting condition of "opaque" barrier of the nonrelativistic case is avoided, nevertheless, the very thin width of a single barrier to obtain this ?transparent? limit can result in a problem itself, for probing the effect. A combination of two successive transparent barriers can show an apparent "superluminal" behavior along a macroscopic arbitrary distance "L". Two solutions for energy E above and below the potential square …
