In this study, a novel negative curvature hollow-core fiber is proposed for low-loss transmission in the near-infrared region. We numerically investigate the effect of the cladding structure, which is formed of concentrically interlaced squares, to the confinement losses using the finite element modelling. The design has eight cladding tubes with nested elements placed to the outer edge of the tubes. The confinement losses of the interlaced square core fiber is calculated as low as 0.12 dB/km in the range of 1.3 to 1.65 μm. The loss profile of the noncircular core design is comparable with the circular cores, and have improved transmission performance at 1.55 μm. The proposed design can have numerous application areas such as data transmission, nonlinear optics and biochemical sensing.

This paper presents the one-dimensional simulation of the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) in pure nitrogen at atmospheric pressure using a sinusoidal supply, within a reactor which consists of two parallel plates. For this purpose, significant reactions among the reactive species in the discharge are taken into account in this work by considering more than 70 reactions for 13 species. The model used in this study to describe the kinetics of the plasma species is the second order fluid model which consists in replacing the Boltzmann equation by these first three moments by using the drift-diffusion approximation for flux. In order to validate the model developed in this research, a comparison of the simulated discharge currents obtained with available experimental data is carried out, before presenting the evolution of the properties of the plasma species. After that, a parametric study is performed showing the effect of some parameters like applied voltage, frequency and nature of the coating dielectric material on the characteristics of DBD in nitrogen. Simulation results for a double dielectric DBD reactor are also presented at the end of this paper.

Using molecular dynamics simulations and scaling arguments, we analyzed the interactions between two identical molten polymer brushes intermediately and strongly compressed towards each other at melt conditions. The width of the overlap region, in which monomers of the linear chains composing the two brushes interact, increases as the polymer-grafted surfaces are brought closer. If two-brush coated surfaces are as close as the characteristics size of the grafted chains, the overlap region is directly controlled by intersurface distance. At intermediate compression, the width of the overlap region scales with the end-to-end size of chain sections within the overlap region. This result is consistent with the scaling regimes in the literature. As the intersurface distance is decreased, the number fraction of chains (chains with their free ends in the overlap region) decreases with a power law. Our results could be useful for studies on tribological behavior of polymer-grafted surfaces as well as for the self-assembly of polymer coated colloids.

: We propose a quantum Otto cycle in a two spin- 1/2 anisotropic XY model in a transverse external magnetic field. We first characterize the parameter regime that the working medium operates as an engine in the adiabatic regime. Then, we consider finite-time behavior of the engine with and without utilizing a shortcut to adiabaticity (STA) technique. STA schemes guarantee that the dynamics of a system follows the adiabatic path, at the expense of introducing an external control. We compare the performance of the nonadiabatic and STA engines for a fixed adiabatic efficiency but different parameters of the working medium. We observe that, for certain parameter regimes, the irreversibility, as measured by the efficiency lags, due to finite-time driving is so low that nonadiabatic engine performs quite close to the adiabatic engine, leaving the STA engine only marginally better than the nonadiabatic one. This suggests that by designing the working medium Hamiltonian one may spare the difficulty of dealing with an external control protocol.

We study charged massless fermionic perturbations in the background of $4$-dimensional linear dilaton black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with double Liouville-type potentials. We present the analytical fermionic quasinormal modes, whose Dirac equations are solved in terms of hypergeometric functions. We also discuss the stability of these black holes under the charged fermionic perturbations.

LHCb Collaboration has recently announced the observation of a doubly charmed tetraquark $T_{cc bar{u} bar{d}}^+$ state with spin parity $J^P = 1^+$. This exotic state can be explained as a molecular state with small binding energy. According to conventional quark model, both $D^+ D^{0ast}$ and $(D^0 D^{+ast})$ multiquark states are expected to have the same mass and flavor in the exact $SU(3)$ symmetry. However, since the quark masses are different, $SU(3) (SU(2))$ symmetry is violated, hence, the mass and flavor eigenstates do not coincide. The mass eigenstates can be represented as a linear combination of the flavor eigenstates, which is characterized by the mixing angle $theta$. In the present work, the possible mixing angles between the $T_{cc}$ states are calculated. Moreover, the analysis are extended for all the possible tetraquarks scenarios with two heavy and two light quarks within the molecular picture although those states have not been observed yet. Our prediction on mixing angle between doubly charmed tetraquark states shows that $SU(3)$ symmetry breaking is around $7%$ maximally.
