Fully polarimetric radar systems are capable of simultaneously transmitting and receiving in two orthogonal polarizations. Instantaneous radar polarimetry exploits both polarization modes of a dually-polarized radar transmitter and receiver on a pulse by pulse basis, and can improve the radar detection performance and suppress range sidelobes . In this paper, we extend the use of instantaneous radar polarimetry for radar systems with multiple dually-polarized transmit and receive antennas. Alamouti signal processing is used to coordinate transmission of Golay pairs of phase codes waveforms across polarizations and multiple antennas. The integration of multi- antenna signal processing with instantaneous radar polarimetry can further improve the detection performance, at a computational cost comparable to single channel matched filtering.

Conventional wisdom presumes that low-coordinated crystal ground states require directional interactions. Using our recently introduced optimization procedure to achieve self-assembly of targeted structures [M. C. Rechtsman et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 228301 (2005); Phys. Rev. E 73, 011406 (2006)], we present an isotropic pair potential V(r) for a three-dimensional many-particle system whose classical ground state is the low-coordinated simple cubic lattice. This result is part of an ongoing pursuit by the authors to develop analytical and computational tools to solve statistical-mechanical inverse problems for the purpose of achieving targeted self-assembly. The purpose of these methods is to design interparticle interactions that cause self-assembly of technologically important target structures for applications in photonics, catalysis, separation, sensors, and electronics. We also show that standard approximate integral-equation theories of the liquid state that utilize pair correlation function information cannot be used in the reverse mode to predict the correct simple cubic potential. We report in passing optimized isotropic potentials that yield the body-centered-cubic and simple hexagonal lattices, which provide other examples of non-close-packed structures that can be assembled using isotropic pair interactions.

Real collective density variables C(k) [cf. Eq. (1.3)] in many-particle systems arise from nonlinear transformations of particle positions, and determine the structure factor S(k), where k denotes the wave vector. Our objective is to prescribe C(k) and then to find many-particle configurations that correspond to such a target C(k) using a numerical optimization technique. Numerical results reported here extend earlier one- and two-dimensional studies to include three dimensions. In addition, they demonstrate the capacity to control S(k) in the neighborhood of ∣k∣=0. The optimization method employed generates multiparticle configurations for which S(k)∝∣k∣α, ∣k∣⩽K, and α=1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10. The case α=1 is relevant for the Harrison-Zeldovich model of the early universe, for superfluid He4, and for jammed amorphous sphere packings. The analysis also provides specific examples of interaction potentials whose classical ground states are configurationally degenerate and disordered.

We investigate the quantum dynamics of a periodically kicked Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) confined in a one-dimensional (1D) box both numerically and theoretically, emphasizing on the phenomena of quantum resonance and antiresonance. The quantum resonant behavior of BEC is different from the single particle case but the antiresonance condition (T=2π and α=0) is not affected by the atomic interaction. For the antiresonance case, the nonlinearity (atom interaction) causes the transition between oscillation and quantum beating. For the quantum resonance case, because of the coherence of BEC, the energy increase is oscillating and the rate is dramatically affected by the many-body interaction. We also discuss the relation between the quantum resonant behavior and the Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) or non-KAM property of the corresponding classical system.

North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NCA&T) has established a master's degree program in computationalscience and Engineering (CSE). The CSE master's program would have three tracks with a focus on computationalscience, but distinguish across the domain areas of specialization. The goal of the track is to produce biological and life scientists, business professionals and economists and agricultural scientists with focus and expertise in computationalsciences and the primary domain areas.

The long time behavior of the solutions of the generalized long-short wave equations with dissipation term is studied. The existence of global attractor of the initial periodic boundary value is proved by means of a uniform a priori estimate for time. And also the dimensions of the global attractor are estimated.

It has recently been shown that triply periodic two-phase bicontinuous composites with interfaces that are the Schwartz primitive (P) and diamond (D) minimal surfaces are not only geometrically extremal but extremal for simultaneous transport of heat and electricity. The multifunctionality of such two-phase systems has been further established by demonstrating that they are also extremal when a competition is set up between the effective bulk modulus and electrical (or thermal) conductivity of the bicontinuous composite. Here we compute the fluid permeabilities of these and other triply periodic bicontinuous structures at a porosity ϕ=1∕2 using the immersed-boundary finite-volume method. The other triply periodic porous media that we study include the Schoen gyroid (G) minimal surface, two different pore-channel models, and an array of spherical obstacles arranged on the sites of a simple cubic lattice. We find that the Schwartz P porous medium has the largest fluid permeability among all of the six triply periodic porous media considered in this paper. The fluid permeabilities are shown to be inversely proportional to the corresponding specific surfaces for these structures. This leads to the conjecture that the maximal fluid permeability for a triply periodic porous medium with a simply connected pore space at a porosity ϕ=1∕2 is achieved by the structure that globally minimizes the specific surface.

Recent simulations indicate that ellipsoids can pack randomly more densely than spheres and, remarkably, for axes ratios near 1.25∶1∶0.8 can approach the densest crystal packing (fcc) of spheres, with a packing fraction of 74%. We demonstrate that such dense packings are realizable. We introduce a novel way of determining packing density for a finite sample that minimizes surface effects. We have fabricated ellipsoids and show that, in a sphere, the radial packing fraction ϕ(r) can be obtained from V(h), the volume of added fluid to fill the sphere to height h. We also obtain ϕ(r) from a magnetic resonance imaging scan. The measurements of the overall density ϕavr, ϕ(r) and the core density ϕ0=0.74±0.005 agree with simulations.
