Due to the arbitrariness of the relationship between the steady temperature and the time taken for the isothermal process of the CA cycle, the constructions of the CA cycle on the thermodynamic plane are not unique. Here, we give some of the detailed constructions of the CA cycle on the thermodynamic plane, using an ideal gas as a working substance. It is shown that these constructions are equal to each other in the maximum power regime in the sense that they achieve the best trade-off between the work and the inverse cycle-time, known as the Pareto front in multi-objective optimization problems.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141721054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The DE between the ground state hyperfine levels is caused by the dephasing rate γd which dramatically modifies the medium response. It controls the normal dispersive region which shows steep positive slopes for linear response at the line center while the nonlinear response experiences steep negative slopes for low γd. The microwave field strength and γd modify the nonlinear response from the anomalous dispersion to normal dispersion. The calculations show that room-temperature atoms are used to quantify the quantum interference (QI) on linear and nonlinear absorption with γd. The EIT spectrum explores the understanding of the subluminal and superluminal wave propagation of probe signal and this study opens a new pathway for the understanding of the QI devices and their nonlinearities based on EIT.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141550529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Energy and entropy are its two main ingredients. Their roles in the time evolution describing approach of a level (starting level) to another level involving less details (target level) is examined on several examples, including the level on which macroscopic systems are seen as composed of microscopic particles, mesoscopic levels as kinetic theory of ideal and van der Waals gases, fluid mechanics, the level of chemical kinetics, and the level of equilibrium thermodynamics. The entropy enters the emergence of the target level in two roles. It expresses internal energy, that is the part of the energy that cannot be expressed in terms of the state variables used on the starting level, and it reveals emerging features characterizing the target level by sweeping away unimportant details. In the case when the target level is a mesoscopic level involving time evolution the roles of the energy and the entropy is taken by two different potentials that are related to their rates.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141522714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The microscopic mechanisms underlying such ‘active’ behaviour must ultimately obey fundamental physics: energy depots must actually consist of dynamical degrees of freedom, such as chemical reaction coordinates, which in some way couple to the particle’s motional degrees of freedom. As a step towards connecting phenomenological models with microscopic dynamical mechanisms, recent papers have studied the minimalistic dynamical mechanism of a ‘dynamical active particle’, and shown how nonlinear couplings can allow steady energy transfer from depot to motion, even in the presence of weak dissipation. Most real active particles move through viscous environments, however, and are strongly damped. Here we therefore generalize the dynamical active particle into the overdamped regime. We find that its mechanism still operates, and in particular allows the overdamped active particle to travel just as far against friction as the undamped model, by moving at a slower average speed. Our results suggest that active particle phenomenology can indeed be consistent with comprehensible dynamical mechanisms, even in strongly dissipative environments.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141522713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article investigates the dielectric properties of such materials using broadband dielectric spectroscopy. The study focuses on the re-entrant relaxor ferroelectric behaviour of Nb-doped BF-BT ceramics, exploring a wide frequency range from approximately 20 Hz to 30 GHz and temperature from 200 to 500 K. The results reveal the presence of thermally induced transitions between ordered and disordered states. Quantitative analysis of the dielectric dispersion is accomplished using the Cole-Cole model, modified to account for the contribution from conduction losses at low frequencies/high temperatures. This analysis revealed that the freezing temperature of the polar nanoregions is around 158 K, with an activation energy of 0.194 eV. The findings contribute to understanding the dielectric relaxation mechanisms and thermal evolution of functional properties in BiFeO3-BaTiO3 ceramics.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141374860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The temperature shifts of the Raman frequencies were fitted by the equation with the Bose-Einstein distribution function, and we found that the shifts were almost insensitive to the pressure. The mode Grüneisen coefficients weakly depend on the pressure and temperature, suggesting the sluggish transition of the crystal structure, unlike the previous experiments showing the transition or decomposition of SiC at high pressure and temperature conditions.

However, a not-locally-conserved electric current present in the material does interact with the potentials in the wave, giving the possibility of its detection. In [1] the basic theoretical description of a detecting circuit was presented, based on a phenomenological theory of materials that can sustain not-locally-conserved electric currents.

Following that, polymer nanocomposites were prepared by incorporating different concentrations of AgNO3 (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 wt.%) into the polymer blend. The effects of different concentrations of AgNO3 on the structural and optical properties of the PVP/PVA blend were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. The XRD analysis demonstrated that increasing the concentration of AgNO3 results in a decrease in the degree of crystallinity from 53.73 in the PVP/PVA blend to 15.77 in the PVP/PVA nanocomposite containing 50 wt.% AgNO3. UV-Vis absorbance spectra were examined to determine optical properties such as the absorption coefficient, absorption edge, optical band gap, and tails of localized states.

In this work, we quantitatively measure the attitude of N = 145 citizens of Leiden (NL) towards quantum science and technology and probe their knowledge on quantum concepts. Results indicate that these citizens have heard about ‘quantum’ through a wide variety of sources.
