The missing-measurement phenomenon is assumed to occur in a random way, and the missing probability is time-varying with securable upper and lower bounds that can be measured in real time. The multiplicative noise is a state-dependent scalar Gaussian white-noise sequence with known variance. The addressed gain-scheduled filtering problem is concerned with the design of a filter such that, for the admissible random missing measurements, nonlinear parameters, and external noise disturbances, the error dynamics is exponentially mean-square stable. The desired filter is equipped with time-varying gains based primarily on the time-varying missing probability and is therefore less conservative than the traditional filter with fixed gains. It is shown that the filter parameters can be derived in terms of the measurable probability via the semidefinite program method.This work was supported in part by the Leverhulme Trust of the U.K., the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the U.K. under Grant GR/S27658/01, the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61028008, 61074016 and 60974030, the Shanghai Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 10ZR1421200, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

Energy-dependent Lorentz covariant parameterization of the NN interaction between 50 and 200 MeV

For laboratory kinetic energies between 50 and 200 MeV, we focus on generating an energy-dependent Lorentz covariant parameterization of the on-shell nucleon-nucleon (NN) scattering amplitudes in terms of a number of Yukawa-type meson exchanges in first-order Born approximation. This parameterization provides a good description of NN scattering observables in the energy range of interest, and can also be extrapolated to energies between 40 and 300 MeV.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figures, Final version accepted by Physics Review

Repeating head-on collisions in an optical trap and the evaluation of spin-dependent interactions among neutral particles

A dynamic process of repeating collisions of a pair of trapped neutral particles with weak spin-dependent interaction is designed and studied. Related theoretical derivation and numerical calculation have been performed to study the inherent coordinate-spin and momentum-spin correlation. Due to the repeating collisions the effect of the weak interaction can be accumulated and enlarged, and therefore can be eventually detected. Numerical results suggest that the Cr-Cr interaction, which has not yet been completely clear, could be thereby determined. The design can be in general used to determine various interactions among neutral atoms and molecules, in particular for the determination of very weak forces.Comment: 15 pages, 7 figure

Ground Band and a Generalized GP-equation for Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensates

For the spinor Bose-Einstein condensates both the total spin $S$ and its Z-component $S_{Z}$ should be conserved. However, in existing theories, only the conservation of $S_{z}$ has been taken into account. To remedy, this paper is the first attempt to take the conservation of both $$ and $S_{Z}$ into account. For this purpose, a total spin-state with the good quantum numbers $S$ and $S_{Z}$ is introduced in the trial wave function, thereby a generalized Gross-Pitaevskii equation has been derived. With this new equation, the ground bands of the $^{23}$Na and $$Rb condensates have been studied, where the levels distinct in $S$ split. It was found that the level density is extremely dense in the bottom of the ground band of $^{23}$Na, i.e., in the vicinity of the ground state. On the contrary, for $^{87}$Rb, the levels are extremely dense in the top of the ground band,Comment: 7 page, 5 figure

Analysis of the strong coupling constant GDs∗DsϕG_{D_{s}^{*}D_{s}\phi} and the decay width of Ds∗→DsγD_{s}^{*}\rightarrow D_{s}\gamma with QCD sum rules

In this article, we calculate the form factors and the coupling constant of the vertex $D_{s}^{*}D_{s}\phi$ using the three-point QCD sum rules. We consider the contributions of the vacuum condensates up to dimension $7$ in the operator product expansion(OPE). And all possible off-shell cases are considered, $\phi$, $D_{s}$ and $D_{s}^{*}$, resulting in three different form factors. Then we fit the form factors into analytical functions and extrapolate them into time-like regions, which giving the coupling constant for the process. Our analysis indicates that the coupling constant for this vertex is $G_{Ds*Ds\phi}=4.12\pm0.70 GeV^{-1}$. The results of this work are very useful in the other phenomenological analysis. As an application, we calculate the coupling constant for the decay channel $D_{s}^{*}\rightarrow D_{s}\gamma$ and analyze the width of this decay with the assumption of the vector meson dominance of the intermediate $\phi(1020)$. Our final result about the decay width of this decay channel is $\Gamma=0.59\pm0.15keV$.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1501.03088 by other author

Topological phases in Kitaev chain with imbalanced pairing

We systematically study a Kitaev chain with imbalanced pair creation and annihilation, which is introduced by non-Hermitian pairing terms. Exact phase diagram shows that the topological phase is still robust under the influence of the conditional imbalance. The gapped phases are characterized by a topological invariant, the extended Zak phase, which is defined by the biorthonormal inner product. Such phases are destroyed at the points where the coalescence of groundstates occur, associating with the time-reversal symmetry breaking. We find that the Majorana edge modes also exist for the open chain within unbroken time-reversal symmetric region, demonstrating the bulk-edge correspondence in such a non-Hermitian system.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure
