AbstractAbstract
[en] This paper is concerned with the investigation of solutions with a point singularity of the general elliptic equation -Σi=1n∂/∂xi(|∂u/∂xi|pi-1 ∂u/∂xi) + |u|q-1u=0. A method for deriving new pointwise estimates for the solution and integral estimates for the gradient of the solution is developed. Precise conditions are established on the behaviour of the term characterizing the absorption to ensure the non-existence of solutions with a point singularity. Bibliography: 11 titles.

AbstractAbstract
[en] This paper studies the effects of the incoherent pumping field and the spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) on the phase control of group velocity. The effects of a relative phase between probe and coupling fields on the absorption and the dispersion are then discussed. It is shown that the phase dependence of the group velocity not only depends on the existence of the SGC, but also depends on the existence of the incoherent pump field. We show that for the weak probe field, and in the presence of SGC, the existence of the incoherent pump field is a necessary condition for the phase control of the dispersion, the absorption and the group index

AbstractAbstract
[en] It has been suggested that photonic crystals can be utilized to make a microsuperlens due to the presence of negative refraction in them. However, the losses of intensity for the image and focusing are inevitable. There are two kinds of losses, one is from the absorption of materials and another is associated with a finite reflection on the interface of the sample. In this Letter, we introduce optical gain in 2D photonic-crystal-based flat lens to compensate the losses. We find that both of losses can be compensated by introducing optical gain. Thus, an active flat lens has been designed by using such a 2D photonic crystal, which the non-loss image and focusing can be realized by it

AbstractAbstract
[en] Among the many concepts which have been developed in surface science to explain the nature of adsorption, the role of weakly-held intermediate states, so-called precursor states, is one of the most important. The kinetics of precursor-mediated adsorption is described, together with examples showing how significant such effects can be, not just in adsorption itself, but also in surface reactions on crystals and on model-supported catalysts.

AbstractAbstract
[en] Plasma-cavity ringdown spectroscopy is a powerful absorption technique for analytical measurement. It combines the inherent advantages of high sensitivity, absolute measurement, and relative insensitivity to light source intensity fluctuations of the cavity ringdown technique with use of plasma as an atomization/ionization source. In this review, we briefly describe the background and principles of plasma-cavity ringdown spectroscopy(CRDS) technology, the instrumental components, and various applications. The significant developments of the plasma sources, lasers, and cavity optics are illustrated. Analytical applications of plasma-CRDS for elemental detection and isotopic measurement in atomic spectrometry are outlined in this review. Plasma-CRDS is shown to have a promising future for various analytical applications, while some further efforts are still needed in fields such as cavity design, plasma source design, instrumental improvement and integration, as well as potential applications in radical and molecular measurements. - Highlights: • Plasma-based cavity ringdown spectroscopy • High sensitivity and high resolution • Elemental and isotopic measurements

AbstractAbstract
[en] We investigate tunable acoustic absorption enabled by the coherent control of input waves. It relies on coherent perfect absorption originally proposed in optics. By designing appropriate acoustic metamaterial structures with resonating effective bulk modulus or density, we show that complete absorption of incident waves impinging on the metamaterial can be achieved for either symmetrical or anti-symmetrical inputs in the forward and backward directions. By adjusting the relative phase between the two incident beams, absorption can be tuned effectively from unity to zero, making coherent control useful in applications like acoustic modulators, noise controllers, transducers, and switches

AbstractAbstract
[en] We report an extraordinary sound absorption enhancement in low and intermediate frequencies achieved by a thin multi-slit hybrid structure formed by incorporating micrometer scale micro-slits into a sub-millimeter scale meso-slit matrix. Theoretical and numerical results reveal that this exotic phenomenon is attributed to the noticeable velocity and temperature gradients induced at the junctures of the micro- and meso-slits, which cause significant loss of sound energy as a result of viscous and thermal effects. It is demonstrated that the proposed thin multi-slit hybrid structure with micro-scale configuration is capable of controling low frequency noise with large wavelength, which is attractive for applications where the size and weight of a sound absorber are restricted

AbstractAbstract
[en] A system for the absorption of sound at the termination of an acoustic tube using an electrodynamic loudspeaker connected to a shunt circuit is presented. A theoretical model of the electrodynamic loudspeaker in the acoustic tube is used for the calculation of the frequency dependence of the ideal shunt circuit impedance, which yields perfect sound absorption in broad frequency range. It is shown that both the real and imaginary parts of the shunt circuit impedance must be negative in the considered system. The required negative values of the shunt circuit impedance are achieved using a negative impedance converter. Frequency dependences of the reflection coefficient were measured in the acoustic impedance tube using the two-microphone transfer function method. Greatly reduced values of sound absorption coefficient were achieved in a narrow frequency range. The stability, applicability of the sound absorption system, and broadening its frequency range are discussed. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] We consider various lattice models of polymers: lattice trees, lattice animals, and self-avoiding walks. The polymer interacts with a surface (hyperplane), receiving an energy reward of β for each site in the surface. It is known that there is an adsorption transition at a critical value of β. We present a new proof of the result of Hammersley et al (1982 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 15 539–71) that the transition occurs at a strictly positive value of β when the surface is impenetrable, i.e. when the polymer is restricted to a half-space. In contrast, for a penetrable surface, it is an open problem to prove that the transition occurs at . We reduce this problem to proving that the fraction of N-site polymers whose span is less than is not too small. (paper)
