In this study, we have successfully demonstrated a simulation of rotating 3D BECs trapped in a 3D harmonic potential forming ‘cigar-shaped’ condensates. We have found that our scheme can reproduce the following typical behaviors of rotating 3D BECs observed in the literature: (i) the characteristic shape of the lattice formed in the cross-section at the origin and its formation process, (ii) the stable existence of vortex lines along the vertical axis after reaching the steady state, (iii) a ‘cookie-cutter’ shape, with a similar lattice shape observed wherever we cut the condensate in a certain range in the vertical direction, (iv) the bending of vortex lines when approaching the inner edges of the condensate, and (v) the formation of vortex lattices by vortices entering from outside the condensate. Therefore, we further validated our scheme by simulating rotating 3D BECs.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139052385","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}

Moreover, the thermodynamic length and the dissipated availability that quantifies the efficiency of irreversible thermodynamic processes are formulated in terms of the derived non-quasistatic response coefficients.

Generally, the color intensity on sapphires is related to the gem deposits including the basaltic-related and metamorphic-related ones. The color of sapphires has been changed after heating under oxidizing atmosphere. However, the explanation about the color mechanism from some previous research contradicted each other and it was still wondered. For this reason, this research is focused on the role of Fe and Ti oxidation states as well as the blue color mechanism on sapphires before and after heating under oxidizing atmosphere. In this study, the sapphire samples were collected from different gem deposits including basaltic-related sapphires from Kanchanaburi province, Thailand and metamorphic-related ones from Sri Lanka before and after heating at 1100°C under oxidizing atmosphere. As a result, the blue color on sapphires before heating can be described that a hole color center assigned to Fe3+-Ti4+ mixed acceptor states inside an energy band gap that could be received an electron from the valence band for charge-balancing after excitation. After heating, the basaltic-related sapphires turned from dark blue to light blue and the metamorphic-related ones turned from light blue to colorless because the Fe3+-Ti4+ mixed acceptor states were decreased because a hole color center was filled by an electron from oxygen during the heating process instead of an electron from the valence band. Therefore, it can be concluded that the blue color mechanism on sapphires before and after heating under oxidizing atmosphere can be explained by an energy band model involving the presence or absence of Fe3+-Ti4+ mixed acceptor states as well as a hole color center inside an energy band gap.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138955441","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}

Bridging this gap required deriving an experimental Rationalized Metric System (RMS) and a corresponding Universal Planck Natural Unit System (UPNUS) in [ LT ] units.The described solution combines Heaviside’s rationalization of Newton’s law and makes the unit of mass dimensions [L 3 T −2 ], as suggested by Maxwell. Consequently the modified Coulomb’s law, changes the unit of the electric charges to the same dimensions as those of the mass. The elimination of the kilogram and ampere has a disentangling effect on the dependencies among the constants of nature and opens new horizons. The new systems have the potential to become powerful exploratory tools in fundamental research and education because of the simplification of the relationships among physical quantities. Noteworthy highlights from analyzed examples include the following: The well-known expression for Stoney mass ( m S ) when converted to RMS units is reduced to the electron charge quantity, whereas traditional metric systems entangle the charge, speed of light, and gravitational constant, forming an entity in the dimension of mass, as first presented by Stoney in 1874. A well-substantiated conjecture is proposed, wherein the Stoney energy E S =m S c 2 is nothing but the long-sought, finite electric field energy of the electron, and the gravitational constant appears to be the limiting factor.

The decoding of covert speech has been observed to have limited efficacy due to the diverse nature of the associated measured brain waves and the limited number of covert speech databases. As a result, traditional machine learning algorithms for learning and inference are challenging, and one of the real alternatives could be to leverage transfer of learning. The main goals of this research were to create a new deep learning (DL) framework for decoding imagined speech electroencephalography (EEG) signals tasks using transfer learning and to transfer the model learning of the source task of an imagined speech EEG dataset to the model training on the target task of another imagined speech EEG dataset, essentially the cross-task learning transfer of discriminative characteristics of the source task to the target task of imagined speech. The experiment was carried out using two distinct open-access EEG datasets, FEIS and KaraOne, that recorded the imagined speech classes of neural signals from multiple individuals. The target FEIS model and the target KaraOne model for multiclass classification exhibit overall accuracy of 89.01% and 82.35%, respectively, according to the proposed transfer learning. The experiment results indicate that the cross-task deep transfer learning design reliably classifies the imagined speech EEG signals by applying the source task learning to the target task learning. The findings suggest the feasibility of a consistent strategy for classifying multiclass imagined speech with transfer learning, which could thereby open up the possibility of future investigation into cross-task imagined speech classification knowledge usability for generalization of new imagined speech prompts.","PeriodicalId":47089,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135686091","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}
