Based on this assumption, the optical characteristics of the material are calculated and compared to experimental findings. The band gap energy of a material changes with frequency and refractive index. We provided an equation of the line extrapolated in the Tauc plot. The obtained formula for optical conductivity reveals that the band tailing parameter in the Tauc formula is dependent on the speed of light, the Planck constant, and the material's refractive index. The determination of this constant helps establish the value of the band. The values of this constant are found to be consistent with various experimental results. Two electric conductivities distinguishing Abraham and Minkoswi's light momentum relationship inside materials are proposed.","PeriodicalId":11738,"journal":{"name":"EPL","volume":"265 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particles close to the symmetric axis of the cylindrical glass tube are driven by a manipulation laser and a particle flow is generated. The flow velocity depends not only on the laser current but also on the configuration and location of the particle cloud. Counterintuitively, it is observed that a vortex can be formed at the interface, only if the flow velocity is below a certain critical value. Our experiments provide a great opportunity to study the new facets of vortex formation at particle-resolved level.","PeriodicalId":11738,"journal":{"name":"EPL","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Motivated by the Krylov complexity and the operator growth hypothesis, we demonstrate that the entropy of the population distribution for an operator in time is a useful way to capture the complexity of the internal information dynamics of a system when subject to an environment and is, in principle, agnostic to the specific choice of operator basis. We demonstrate its effectiveness for the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, examining the dynamics of the system in both its Krylov basis and the basis of operator strings. We prove that the former basis minimises spread complexity while the latter is an eigenbasis for high dissipation. In both cases, we probe the long-time dynamics of the model and the phenomenological effects of decoherence on the complexity of the dynamics.","PeriodicalId":11738,"journal":{"name":"EPL","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Efficient and accurate detection of driving fatigue are a legitimate public concern. In this paper, we conduct the simulated driving experiments and an EEG-based driving fatigue detection framework integrating multilayer brain network and convolutional neural network (CNN) is developed. This lightweight attention-based multi-frequency topology learning (AMFTL) framework first captures the fatigue-related multi-frequency brain topological information and then feeds it into a CNN-based topology feature extraction (TFE) module to fully explore and integrate the critical topological features. The quantitative analysis results show that there are significant differences in brain topologies between the alert and fatigue states. And experimental results show that our proposed framework achieves an average detection accuracy of 94.71% for driving fatigue, which outperforms the current state-of-the-art methods. This proposed framework is expected to open new venues for EEG-based brain state analysis, and holds promising practical application potential.","PeriodicalId":11738,"journal":{"name":"EPL","volume":"105 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we investigate the electronic structure of ilmenite MnTiO3 using room temperature photoemission spectroscopy and theoretical approaches within density functional theory (DFT), DFT+ U and DFT+dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). Mn 2p (Ti 2p) core level photoemission spectra, confirming Mn2+ (Ti4+) oxidation state, exhibit multiple satellites which are very similar to that of MnO (TiO2), suggesting similar strength of various interactions in this system. Valence band spectra collected at different photon energies suggest dominant Mn 3d character in the highest occupied band with a wide insulating gap. DFT(+ U) correctly predicts the experimentally observed anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) insulating ground state for MnTiO3 where the requirement of a large U to reproduce the experimental values of magnetic moment and band gap signifies the importance of electron correlation. Magnetically disordered paramagnetic (PM) phase could be well captured within DFT+DMFT, which provides an excellent agreement for the experimental band gap, paramagnetic moment, valence band spectra as well as dominant Mn 3d character in the highest occupied band. The calculated spectral function remains largely unaffected and exhibits sharper features in the magnetically ordered AFM phase. We show that the electronic structure of MnTiO3 in both the PM and AFM phases can be accurately described within DFT+DMFT.","PeriodicalId":11738,"journal":{"name":"EPL","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It aims to offer a comprehensive analysis of how temperature and gravitational interactions between states with masses m influence work extraction.

Moreover, the same ring may be used later to realize energy-frontier antimuon-proton colliders based on FCC-pp and SppC. Similarly, the change of the electron ring in the μTRISTAN project into the proton ring will give the opportunity to investigate lepton-hadron collisions at ∼2 TeV center-of-mass energies.

At the nano-scale, molecular machines interact with the surrounding environment and are subjected to external forces. The mechano-chemical coupling which arises naturally in these systems reveals a complex interplay between chemical and mechanical degrees of freedom with strong impact on their active mechanism. By considering various models far from equilibrium, we show that the tuning of applied forces gives rise to a nonlinear response that causes a non-monotonic behaviour in the machines’ activity. Our findings have implications in understanding, designing, and triggering such processes by controlled application of external fields, including the collective dynamics of larger non-equilibrium systems where the total dissipation and performance might be affected by internal and inter-particle interactions.","PeriodicalId":11738,"journal":{"name":"EPL","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142209969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
