dc-biased stationary transport in the absence of dissipation

We obtain stationary transport in a Hamiltonian system with ac driving in the presence of a dc bias. A particle in a periodic potential under the influence of a time-periodic field possesses a mixed phase space with regular and chaotic components. An additional external dc bias allows to separate effectively these structures. We show the existence of a stationary current which originates from the persisting invariant manifolds (regular islands, periodic orbits, and cantori). The transient dynamics of the accelerated chaotic domain separates fast chaotic motion from ballistic type trajectories which stick to the vicinity of the invariant submanifold. Experimental studies with cold atoms in laser-induced optical lattices are ideal candidates for the observation of these unexpected findings.

From anomalous energy diffusion to Levy walks and heat conductivity in one-dimensional systems

The evolution of infinitesimal, localized perturbations is investigated in a one-dimensional diatomic gas of hard-point particles (HPG) and thereby connected to energy diffusion. As a result, a Levy walk description, which was so far invoked to explain anomalous heat conductivity in the context of non-interacting particles is here shown to extend to the general case of truly many-body systems. Our approach does not only provide a firm evidence that energy diffusion is anomalous in the HPG, but proves definitely superior to direct methods for estimating the divergence rate of heat conductivity which turns out to be $0.333\pm 0.004$, in perfect agreement with the dynamical renormalization--group prediction (1/3).

Energy Flow Puzzle of Soliton Ratchets

We study the mechanism of directed energy transport for soliton ratchets. The energy flow appears due to the progressive motion of a soliton (kink) which is an energy carrier. However, the energy current formed by internal system deformations (the total field momentum) is zero. We solve the underlying puzzle by showing that the energy flow is realized via an {\it inhomogeneous} energy exchange between the system and the external ac driving. Internal kink modes are unambiguously shown to be crucial for that transport process to take place. We also discuss effects of spatial discretization and combination of ac and dc external drivings.

Hadronic Calibration of the ATLAS Liquid Argon End-Cap Calorimeter in the Pseudorapidity Region 1.6 < |eta| < 1.8 in Beam Tests

A full azimuthal phi-wedge of the ATLAS liquid argon end-cap calorimeter has been exposed to beams of electrons, muons and pions in the energy range 6 GeV <= E <= 200 GeV at the CERN SPS. The angular region studied corresponds to the ATLAS impact position around the pseudorapidity interval 1.6 < |eta| < 1.8. The beam test set-up is described. A detailed study of the performance is given as well as the related intercalibration constants obtained. Following the ATLAS hadronic calibration proposal, a first study of the hadron calibration using a weighting ansatz is presented. The results are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo simulations, based on GEANT 3 and GEANT 4 models.

Asymptotics of the orthogonal polynomials for the Szego class with a polynomial weight

Let p(t) be a trigonometric polynomial, non-negative on the unit circle. We say that a measure σbelongs to a polynomial Szego class, if the logarithm of its density is summable over the circle with the weight p(t). For the associated orthogonal polynomials, we obtain pointwise asymptotics inside the unit disc. Then, we show that these asymptotics holds in L^2-sense on the unit circle. As a corollary, we get an existence of certain modified wave operators.

The Szego class with a polynomial weight

Let p be a trigonometric polynomial, nonnegative on the unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. We say that a measure $σ$ on $\mathbb{T}$ belongs to the polynomial Szego class, if $dσ=sigma'_{ac}dθ+dσ_s$, $σ_s$ is singular, and $p\ln σ'_{ac}$ is summable on $\mathbb{T}$. For the associated orthogonal polynomials, we obtain pointwise asymptotics inside the unit disc. Then, we show that this asymptotics holds in the $L^2$ sense on the unit circle. As a corollary, we get existense of certain modified wave operators.

From deterministic dynamics to kinetic phenomena

We investigate a one-dimenisonal Hamiltonian system that describes a system of particles interacting through short-range repulsive potentials. Depending on the particle mean energy, $ε$, the system demonstrates a spectrum of kinetic regimes, characterized by their transport properties ranging from ballistic motion to localized oscillations through anomalous diffusion regimes. We etsablish relationships between the observed kinetic regimes and the "thermodynamic" states of the system. The nature of heat conduction in the proposed model is discussed.

Dynamical heat channels

We consider heat conduction in a 1D dynamical channel. The channel consists of a group of noninteracting particles, which move between two heat baths according to some dynamical process. We show that the essential thermodynamic properties of the heat channel can be evaluated from the diffusion properties of the underlying particles. Emphasis is put on the conduction under anomalous diffusion conditions. \\{\bf PACS number}: 05.40.+j, 05.45.ac, 05.60.cd

Broken space-time symmetries and mechanisms of rectification of ac fields by nonlinear (non)adiabatic response

We consider low-dimensional dynamical systems exposed to a heat bath and to additional ac fields. The presence of these ac fields may lead to a breaking of certain spatial or temporal symmetries which in turn cause nonzero averages of relevant observables. Nonlinear (non)adiabatic response is employed to explain the effect. We consider a case of a particle in a periodic potential as an example and discuss the relevant symmetry breakings and the mechanisms of rectification of the current in such a system.

Dynamical mechanisms of DC current generation in driven Hamiltonian systems

Recent symmetry considerations (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 84} 2358 (2000)) have shown that dc currents may be generated in the stochastic layer of a system describing the motion of a particle in a one-dimensional potential in the presence of an ac time-periodic drive. In this paper we explain the dynamical origin of this current. We show that the dc current is induced by the presence and desymmetrization of ballistic channels inside the stochastic layer. The existence of these channels is due to resonance islands with non-zero winding numbers. The characterization of the flights dynamics inside ballistic channels is described by distribution functions. We obtain these distribution functions numerically and find very good agreement with simulation data.

Search for Exotic Mesons in pi- P Interactions at 18 GeV/c

The recent search for non $q \bar{q}$ mesons in $π^{-}p$ interactions at Brookhaven National Laboratory is summarized. Many final states such as $ηπ$, $η' π^{-}$, $a_{0} π$, $f_{1} π$, $a_{2} π$, $b_{1} π$, which are favored decay modes of exotics, are under investigation.
