Prospects for a Truly Portable Absolute Gravimeter

Author(s)
J E. Faller, A L. Vitouchkine
Absolute gravity measurements offer teh possibility of measuring vertical height changes (the subject of this meeting) at the centimeter level. Today's absolute...

Traceability in Nuclear Medicine

Author(s)
Brian E. Zimmerman, Steven Judge
Accurate, reproducible measurement of radioactivity in nuclear medicine applications is vital to ensuring the safety and effectiveness of disease diagnosis and...

Reliable Control of Josephson Phase Qubits

Author(s)
M Steffen, J M. Martinis, Isaac C. Chuang
A quantum bit is a closed two-dimensional Hilbert space, but often experimental systems have three or more energy levels. In a Josephson phase qubit the energy...

Particle Growth in Silane RF Discharges

Author(s)
Alan Gallagher
Calculations and measurements of particle growth in silane RF capacitively coupled discharges are reported. The measurements of particle diameters of 8 nm to 50...

Two-Loop Bethe Logarithms for non-S Levels

Author(s)
Ulrich D. Jentschura
Two-loop Bethe logarithms are calculated for excited P and D states in hydrogenlike systems, and estimates are presented for all states with higher angular...

Charge and Spin Excitations in Double-Layer Manganites

Author(s)
D B. Romero, V B. Podobedov, A Weber, J.F. Mitchell, Y Moritomo, H D. Drew
Charge and spin dynamics in La 2-2xSr 1+2xMn 2O 7 (x=0.4,0.5) are probed by magneto-Raman spectroscopy. A competition between charge-order, antiferromagnetic...

Spectrum of Singly-Ionized Cesium (Cs II)

Author(s)
Craig J. Sansonetti, K L. Andrew
We measured the spectrum of cesium emitted by a pulsed radio-frequency discharge in the region 1550 to 40 000 using concave grating spectrographs, Fabry-Perot...

Really Cool Molecules

Author(s)
Paul S. Julienne
Ultracold molecules have been made by applying a time-dependent magnetic field to a dilute quantum gas of ultracold trapped fermionic atoms. This raises the...

Polarization-Locked Temporal Vector Solitons

Author(s)
Steven T. Cundiff, B C. Collins, N N. Akhmediev, J M. Soto-Crespo, K Bergman, W H. Knox
Solitons are the subject of substantial research because of potential applications in high-speed fiber-optics communications. However, discussions of soliton...

Optical frequency standards: Progress and applications

Author(s)
John L. Hall, Jun Ye, L -. Ma, K R. Vogel, Tim P. Dinneen
A number of individual small advances, taken together, bring us to the beginning of a new domain of optical frequency stability, reproducibility, and...

From Stable Lasers to Optical-Frequency Clocks

Author(s)
John L. Hall, Jun Ye, L -. Ma, J L. Peng, M Notcutt, J D. Jost, A Marian
This is a report on behalf of the World Tema of Stable Laser and Optical Frequency Measurement Enthusiasts, even if most detailed illustrations draw mainly from...

Relativistic Quantum Walks

Author(s)
Frederick Strauch
By pursuing the deep relation between the one-dimensional Dirac equation and quantum walks, the physical role of quantum interference in the latter is explained...
