When plasmodia of the true slime mold Physarum were exposed to unfavorable conditions presented as three consecutive pulses at constant intervals, they reduced their locomotive speed in response to each episode. When the plasmodia were subsequently subjected to favorable conditions, they spontaneously reduced their locomotive speed at the time when the next unfavorable episode would have occurred. This implied the anticipation of impending environmental change. We explored the mechanisms underlying these types of behavior from a dynamical systems perspective.

Recent studies show that volume fractions φJ at the jamming transition of frictionless hard spheres and disks are not uniquely determined but exist over a continuous range. Motivated by this observation, we numerically investigate the dependence of φJ on the initial configurations of the parent fluid equilibrated at a volume fraction φeq, before compressing to generate a jammed packing. We find that φJ remains constant when φeq is small but sharply increases as φeq exceeds the dynamic transition point which the mode-coupling theory predicts. We carefully analyze configurational properties of both jammed packings and parent fluids and find that, while all jammed packings remain isostatic, the increase of φJ is accompanied with subtle but distinct changes of local orders, a static length scale, and an exponent of the finite-size scaling. These results are consistent with the scenario of the random first-order transition theory of the glass transition.

The autocorrelation of angle resolved photoemission data from the high temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta shows distinct peaks in momentum space which disperse with binding energy in the superconducting state, but not in the pseudogap phase. Although it is tempting to attribute a nondispersive behavior in momentum space to charge ordering, a deconstruction of the autocorrelation reveals that the nondispersive peaks arise from the tips of the Fermi arcs, which themselves do not change with binding energy.

A midgap absorption band is observed in the quasi one-dimensional semiconductor [Pt(en)2]-[Pt(en)2Cl2](ClO4)4 under hydrostatic pressures at room temperature, where en is ethylenediamine. The transition is allowed only for the polarization parallel to the -Cl-PtII-Cl-PtIV- chain. The peak position remains near the middle of the Peierls gap at any pressure up to 2.2 GPa. The intensity increases exponentially with the peak shift. The gap states responsible for this band are attributed to soliton excitations corresponding to kinks of the charge-density wave.顕著な一次元物性を示すことで注目を集めている擬一次元白金錯体[Pt(en)2][Pt(en)2Cl2](ClO4)4の結晶について光吸収スペクトルを静水圧下で測定した結果、パイエルスギャップのほぼ中間に対応する近赤外波長位置に、加圧と共に成長する一つの吸収帯が発見された。パイエルスギャップ自体は移動積分の増大のために圧力によって減少するが、新しい吸収帯も低エネルギー側にシフトし、かつシフト量はパイエルスギャップの減少分のほぼ二分の一に等しい。この結果に基づいて、新しい吸収帯は擬一次元結合上に生成した電子ソリトンによるものとの解釈を提案し、静水圧という手段で物理的に制御できた初めてのソリトンであることを論述した。

We report first-principles total-energy electronic-structure calculations in the density-functional theory performed for hexagonally bonded honeycomb sheets consisting of B, N, and C atoms. We find that the ground state of BNC sheets with particular stoichiometry is ferromagnetic. Detailed analyses of energy bands and spin densities unequivocally reveal the nature of the ferromagnetic ordering, leading to an argument that the BNC sheet is a manifestation of the flat-band ferromagnetism.

The transverse acoustic excitation modes were detected by inelastic x-ray scattering in liquid Ga in the Q range above 9  nm-1 although liquid Ga is mostly described by a hard-sphere liquid. An ab initio molecular dynamics simulation clearly supports this finding. From the detailed analysis for the S(Q, ω) spectra with a good statistic quality, the lifetime of 0.5 ps and the propagating length of 0.4–0.5 nm can be estimated for the transverse acoustic phonon modes, which may correspond to the lifetime and size of cages formed instantaneously in liquid Ga.

A phenomenological model for cloud dynamics is proposed, which consists of the successive operations of the physical processes: buoyancy, diffusion, viscosity, adiabatic expansion, fall of a droplet by gravity, descent flow dragged by the falling droplet, and advection. Through extensive simulations, the phases corresponding to stratus, cumulus, stratocumulus, and cumulonimbus are found by changing the ground temperature and the moisture of the air. They are characterized by order parameters such as the cluster number, perimeter-to-area ratio of a cloud, and Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy. Though our model is simple and constructive, it may shed some light on the true nature of clouds.

We have investigated the values of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling constant α in In0.52Al0.48As/In0.53Ga0.47As/In0.52Al0.48As quantum wells using the weak antilocalization (WAL) analysis as a function of the structural inversion asymmetry (SIA) of the quantum wells. We have found that the deduced α values have a strong correlation with the degree of SIA of the quantum wells as predicted theoretically. The good agreement between the theoretical and experimental values of α suggests that our WAL approach for deducing α values provides a useful tool in designing future spintronics devices that utilize the Rashba spin-orbit coupling.

We discuss two independent, large scale experiments performed in two wave basins of different dimensions in which the statistics of the surface wave elevation are addressed. Both facilities are equipped with a wave maker capable of generating waves with prescribed frequency and directional properties. The experimental results show that the probability of the formation of large amplitude waves strongly depends on the directional properties of the waves. Sea states characterized by long-crested and steep waves are more likely to be populated by freak waves with respect to those characterized by a large directional spreading.

We present a new method for imaging surface phonon focusing and dispersion at frequencies up to 1 GHz that makes use of ultrafast optical excitation and detection. Animations of coherent surface phonon wave packets emanating from a point source on isotropic and anisotropic solids are obtained with micron lateral resolution. We resolve rounded-square shaped wave fronts on the (100) plane of LiF and discover isolated pockets of pseudosurface wave propagation with exceptionally high group velocity in the (001) plane of TeO2. Surface phonon refraction and concentration in a minute gold pyramid is also revealed.

Optical manipulation of the magnetic anisotropy is demonstrated for bilayered manganites, La2-2xSr1+2xMn2O7, by means of femtosecond Kerr-rotation measurements. Upon the photoexcitation on the x=0.32 crystal, the magnetization exhibits the precessional motion for about 1 ns, revealing the directional change of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy from the c axis to the ab plane. This change of the anisotropy induces the nonthermal decrease of the c-axis magnetization component for about 1 ns.

Self-trapped-exciton (STE) luminescence of quasi-one-dimensional halogen-bridged platinum complex [Pt(en)2] [Pt(en)2Cl2] (ClO4)4 is investigated by femtosecond time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy. In the high energy tail of the luminescence band, a fast rise and decay are seen, whereas around the luminescence peak energy a slow rise of about 500 fs is observed. This rise becomes faster at the low energy side of the band. These results are consistently explained by the cooling of prethermalized STEs, following the rapid self-trapping which is estimated to occur within 140 fs.

We report clear experimental evidence for the charge manipulation of molecules encapsulated inside single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) using electrochemical doping techniques. We encapsulated β-carotene (Car) inside SWCNTs and clarified electrochemical doping characteristics of their Raman spectra. C=C streching modes of encapsulated Car and a G band of SWCNTs showed clearly different doping behaviors as the electrochemical potentials were shifted. Electron extraction from encapsulated Car was clearly achieved. However, electrochemical characteristics of Car inside SWCNTs and doping mechanisms elucidated by calculations based on density-functional theory indicate the difficulty of charge manipulation of molecules inside SWCNTs due to the presence of strong on-site Coulomb repulsion energy at the molecules.
