The two-time correlation function for probe spin interacting with spin system (bath) is studied. We show that zeros of this function correspond to zeros of partition function of spin system in complex magnetic field. The obtained relation gives new possibility to observe the Lee-Yang zeros experimentally. Namely, we show that measuring of the time dependence of correlationfunction allows direct experimental observation of the Lee-Yang zeros. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

To study the quantum regression theorem and the Leggett-Garg inequality, two-time correlation functions are calculated for a two-level system which is placed under the influence of a composite environment consisting of two subsystems. two different configurations, I and II, are considered. In the configuration I, a two-level system of interest interacts with a thermal reservoir via another two-level system. In the configuration II, a relevant two-level system is influenced independently by another two-level system and a thermal reservoir. In both configurations, the thermal reservoir is assumed to have a sufficiently short correlationtime. When an interacting nuclear-spin and electron-spin system is considered, the relevant system is a nuclear-spin (electron-spin) in the configuration I (II). It is shown that the quantum regression theorem for the relevant two-level system is always valid in the configuration II while it is not in the configuration I, regardless of whether the reduced time evolution is Markovian or not. Furthermore, it is found that the Leggett-Garg inequality can be violated in both configurations. The dependence of the violation on the parameters characterizing the open two-level system is investigated.

X-ray free-electron lasers (X-FELs) present new opportunities to study ultrafast lattice dynamics in complex materials. While the unprecedented source brilliance enables high fidelity measurement of structural dynamics, it also raises experimental challenges related to the understanding and control of beam-induced irreversible structural changes in samples that can ultimately impact the interpretation of experimental results. This is also important for designing reliable high performance X-ray optical components. In this work, X-FEL beam-induced lattice alterations are investigated by measuring the shot-to-shot evolution of near-Bragg coherent scattering from a single crystalline germanium sample. It is shown that X-ray photon correlation analysis of sequential speckle patterns measurements can be used to monitor the nature and extent of lattice rearrangements. Abrupt, irreversible changes are observed following intermittent high-fluence monochromatic X-ray pulses, thus revealing the existence of a threshold response to X-FEL pulse intensity.

Continuous differential equations are often applied to small populations with little time spent on understanding uncertainty brought about by small-population effects. Despite large numbers of individuals being latently infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB), progression from latent infection to observable disease is a relatively rare event. For small communities, this means case counts are subject to stochasticity, and deterministic models may not be appropriate tools for interpreting transmission trends. Furthermore, the nonlinear nature of the underlying dynamics means that fluctuations are autocorrelated, which can invalidate standard statistical analyses which assume independent fluctuations. Here we extend recent work using a system of differential equations to study the HIV-TB epidemic in Masiphumelele, a community near Cape Town in South Africa [Bacaer, et al., J. Mol. Biol. 57(4), 557-593] by studying the statistical properties of active TB events. We apply van Kampen's system-size (or population-size) expansion technique to obtain an approximation to a master equation describing the dynamics. We use the resulting Fokker-Planck equation and point-process theory to derive two-time correlation functions for active TB events. This method can be used to gain insight into the temporal aspect of cluster identification, which currently relies on DNA classification only. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

We showed that the turbulent viscosity coefficient defined as the molecular viscosity coefficient diverges in the transition region from soft turbulence to hard turbulence in the Rayleigh-Benard convection in the last paper (Physica A 333(2004)71). In the present paper, we measure the strength of the divergence in the viscosity coefficient. The strongest point of the divergence is in the middle of the transition region. In addition, we show how the strength of the divergence depends on the temperature difference between two plates. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

We calculate the heat conductivity of the turbulence induced in the Rayleigh-Benard convection. We show that the heat conductivity becomes large as we increase the temperature difference between the top and the bottom plates, i.e., the strength of the turbulence. We can easily see that the heat conductivity diverges in the transition regime from soft turbulence to hard turbulence as we can see in the viscosity coefficient in the same system.

Our method requires the simulation of the evolution of a given set of density matrices only once. The evaluation can be carried out from the density matrix data obtained for any quantities, time arguments and initial conditions.

The statistical quantities concerning the momentum flux in the Rayleigh-Benard convection are investigated in detail. The transition from soft turbulence to hard turbulence is captured through the momentum flux. The time series of the momentum flux is studied and its power spectrum shows the sign of the transition. The two-time correlation function does not saturate its value in the range of the transition. Except for the transition regime the two-time correlation function for the momentum flux converges to 0 and we estimate the viscosity by the turbulence. We confirm that the viscosity coefficient increases as we increase the temperature difference between the top and bottom plates. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Atomic emission and cavity field spectra of the Jaynes-Cummings model are analytically compared. We show that the two spectra are in general different, except for the special case where the interaction is resonant, the cavity is initially empty and the retarded time of one-photon emission is considered in calculations of the spectra. In this case, the two spectra are the same. We also show that this result comes from the fact that the two-time autocorrelationfunction of the cavity field is not directly proportional to that of the atom.
