摘要： We conduct an experimental investigation on the integration of film cooling for thermal protection in a 72-mm cylindrical rotating detonation engine (RDE). The cooling scheme employs the injection of cooling air through a series of cat-ear-shaped film cooling holes densely distributed along the outer wall of the cylindrical combustor. Our findings reveal successful initiation of the RDE and sustained propagation of the rotating detonation wave (RDW) when film cooling is activated.

摘要： In this paper, we study the quantum geometric effects near the locations that black hole horizons used to appear in Einstein's classical theory within the framework of the improved dynamic approach, in which the two polymerization parameters of the Kantowski-Sachs spacetime are functions of the phase space variables. Our detailed analysis shows that the effects are so strong that black hole horizons of the effective quantum theory do not exist any longer, and the corresponding Kantowski-Sachs model now describes the entire spacetime of the trapped region, instead of being only the internal region of a black hole, as it is usually expected in loop quantum gravity.

摘要： Inspired by the combinatorial algebraic approach proposed by Dhurandhar et al., we propose two novel classes of second-generation time-delay interferometry (TDI) solution as well as their further generalization. The primary strategy of the algorithm is to enumerate specific types of residual laser frequency noise associated with second-order commutators in products of time-displacement operators. The derivations are based on analyzing the delay time residual when expanded in time derivatives of the armlengths order by order. It is observed that the solutions obtained by such a scheme are primarily captured by the geometric TDI approach and therefore possess an intuitive interpretation. Nonetheless, the fully-symmetric Sagnac and Sagnac-inspired combinations inherit the properties from the original algebraic approach, and subsequently lie outside of the scope of geometric TDI. Moreover, at its lowest order, the solution is furnished by commutator of rather compact form. Besides the original Michelson-type solution, we elaborate on other types of solutions such as the Monitor, Beacon, Relay, Sagnac, fully-symmetric Sagnac, and Sagnac-inspired ones. The average response functions, residual noise power spectral density, and sensitivity curves are evaluated for the obtained solutions. Also, the relations between the present scheme and other existing algorithms are discussed.

摘要： Neutral hydrogen (HI) intensity mapping is a promising technique to probe the large-scale structure of the Universe, improving our understanding on the late-time accelerated expansion. In this work, we first scrutinize how an alternative cosmology, interacting dark energy (IDE), can affect the 21-cm angular power spectrum relative to the concordance $\Lambda$CDM model. We re-derive the 21-cm brightness temperature fluctuation in the context of such interaction and uncover an extra new contribution. Then we estimate the noise level of three upcoming HI intensity mapping surveys, BINGO, SKA1-MID Band$\,$1 and Band$\,$2, respectively, and employ a Fisher matrix approach to forecast their constraints on the IDE model. We find that while $\textit{Planck}\,$ 2018 maintains its dominion over early-Universe parameter constraints, BINGO and SKA1-MID Band$\,$2 put complementary bounding to the latest CMB measurements on dark energy equation of state $w$, the interacting strength $\lambda_i$ and the reduced Hubble constant $h$, and SKA1-MID Band$\,$1 even outperforms $\textit{Planck}\,$ 2018 in these late-Universe parameter constraints. The expected minimum uncertainties are given by SKA1-MID Band$\,$1+$\textit{Planck}\,$: $\sim 0.34\%$ on $w$, $\sim 0.22\%$ on $h$, $\sim 0.64\%$ on HI bias $b_{\rm HI}$, and an absolute uncertainty of about $3\times10^{-4}$ ($7\times10^{-4}$) on $\lambda_{1}$ ($\lambda_{2}$). Moreover, we quantify the effects from systematics of the redshift bin number, redshift-space distortions, foreground residuals and uncertainties on the measured HI fraction, $\Omega_{\mathrm{HI}}(z)$. Our results indicate a bright prospect for HI intensity mapping surveys in constraining IDE, whether on their own or further by synergies with other measurements.

摘要： BINGO will observe hydrogen distribution by means of the 21 cm line signal by drift-scan mapping through a tomographic analysis called \emph{Intensity Mapping} (IM) between 980 and 1260 MHz which aims at analyzing Dark Energy using \emph{Baryon Acoustic Oscillations}. In the same frequency range, there are several other unwanted signals as well as instrumental noise, contaminating the target signal. There are many component separation methods to reconstruct signals. Here, we used just three blind methods (FastICA, GNILC and GMCA), which explore different ways to estimate foregrounds' contribution from observed signals from the sky. Subsequently, we estimate 21 cm signal from its mixing with noise. We also analyzed how different number of simulations affect the quality of the estimation, as well as the effect of the binning on angular power spectrum to estimate 21 cm from the mixing with noise. For the BINGO sky range and sensitivity and the foreground model considered in the current simulation, we find that the effective dimension of the foreground subspace leading to best results is equal to three, composed of non-physical templates. At this moment of the pipeline configuration, using 50 or 400 simulations is statistically equivalent. It is also possible to reduce the number of multipoles by half to speed up the process and maintain the quality of results. All three algorithms used to perform foreground removal yielded statistically equivalent results for estimating the 21cm signal when we assume 400 realizations and GMCA and FastICA's mixing matrix dimensions equal to three. However, concerning computational cost in this stage of the BINGO pipeline, FastICA is faster than other algorithms. A new comparison will be necessary when the time-ordered-data and map-making are available.

摘要： Employing the Fisher information matrix analysis, we estimate parameter errors of TianQin and LISA for monochromatic gravitational waves. With the long-wavelength approximation we derive analytical formulas for the parameter estimation errors. We separately analyze the effects of the amplitude modulation due to the changing orientation of the detector plane and the Doppler modulation due to the translational motion of the center of the detector around the Sun. We disclose that in the low frequency regime there exist different patterns in angular resolutions and estimation errors of sources' parameters between LISA and TianQin, the angular resolution falls off as $S_n(f)/f^2$ for TianQin but $S_n(f)$ for LISA, and the estimation errors of the other parameters fall off as $\sqrt{S_n(f)}/f$ for TianQin but $\sqrt{S_n(f)}$ for LISA. In the medium frequency regime we observe the same pattern where the angular resolution falls off as $S_n(f)/f^2$ and the estimation errors of the other parameters fall off as $\sqrt{S_n(f)}$ for both TianQin and LISA. In the high frequency regime, the long-wavelength approximation fails, we numerically calculate the parameter estimation errors for LISA and TianQin and find that the parameter estimation errors measured by TianQin are smaller than those by LISA.

摘要： We devise a novel mechanism and for the first time demonstrate that the Higgs model in particle physics can drive the inflation to satisfy the cosmic microwave background observations and simultaneously enhance the curvature perturbations at small scales to explain the abundance of dark matter in our universe in the form of primordial black holes. The production of primordial black holes is accompanied by the secondary gravitational waves induced by the first order Higgs fluctuations which is expected observable by space-based gravitational wave detectors. We propose possible cosmological probes of Higgs field in the future observations for primordial black holes dark matter or stochastic gravitational waves.

摘要： Gravitational wave (GW) detection in space probes GW spectrum that is inaccessible from the Earth. In addition to LISA project led by European Space Agency, and the DECIGO detector proposed by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, two Chinese space-based GW observatories -- TianQin and Taiji -- are planned to be launched in the 2030s. TianQin has a unique concept in its design with a geocentric orbit. Taiji's design is similar to LISA, but is more ambitious with longer arm distance. Both facilities are complementary to LISA, considering that TianQin is sensitive to higher frequencies and Taiji probes similar frequencies but with higher sensitivity. In this Perspective we explain the concepts for both facilities and introduce the development milestones of TianQin and Taiji projects in testing extraordinary technologies to pave the way for future space-based GW detections. Considering that LISA, TianQin and Taiji have similar scientific goals, all are scheduled to be launched around the 2030s and will operate concurrently, we discuss possible collaborations among them to improve GW source localization and characterization.

摘要： Localizing the sky position of the gravitational wave source is a key scientific goal for gravitational wave observations. Employing the Fisher information matrix approximation, we compute the angular resolutions of LISA and TianQin, two planned space-based gravitational wave detectors and examine how detectors' configuration properties, such as the orientation change of the detector plane, heliocentric or geocentric motion and the arm length etc. affect the accuracy of source localization. We find that the amplitude modulation due to the annual changing orientation of the detector plane helps LISA get better accuracy in the sky localization and better sky coverage at frequencies below several mHz, and its effect on TianQin is negligible although the orientation of TianQin's detector plane is fixed. At frequencies above roughly 30mHz, TianQin's ability in the sky localization is better than LISA. Further we explore potential space detector networks for fast and accurate localization of the gravitational wave sources. The LISA-TianQin network has better ability in sky localization for sources with frequencies in the range 1-100 mHz and the network has larger sky coverage for the angular resolution than the individual detector.

摘要： In the past few years, the lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) platform has revolutionized lithium niobate materials, and a series of quantum photonic chips based on LNOI have shown unprecedented performances. Quantum frequency conversion (QFC) photonic chips, which enable quantum state preservation during frequency tuning, are crucial in quantum technology. In this work, we demonstrate a low-noise QFC process on an LNOI nanophotonic platform designed to connect telecom and near-visible bands with sum-frequency generation by long-wavelength pumping. An internal conversion efficiency of 73% and an on-chip noise count rate of 900 counts per second (cps) are achieved. Moreover, the on-chip preservation of quantum statistical properties is verified, showing that the QFC chip is promising for extensive applications of LNOI integrated circuits in quantum information. Based on the QFC chip, we construct an upconversion single-photon detector with the sum-frequency output spectrally filtered and detected by a silicon single-photon avalanche photodiode, demonstrating the feasibility of an upconversion single-photon detector on-chip with a detection efficiency of 8.7% and a noise count rate of 300 cps. The realization of a low-noise QFC device paves the way for practical chip-scale QFC-based quantum systems in heterogeneous configurations.

摘要： Quantum internet gives the promise of getting all quantum resources connected, and it will enable applications far beyond a localized scenario. A prototype is a network of quantum memories that are entangled and well separated. Previous realizations are limited in the distance. In this paper, we report the establishment of remote entanglement between two atomic quantum memories physically separated by 12.5 km directly in a metropolitan area. We create atom-photon entanglement in one node and send the photon to a second node for storage. We harness low-loss transmission through a field-deployed fiber of 20.5 km by making use of frequency down-conversion and up-conversion. The final memory-memory entanglement is verified to have a fidelity of 90% via retrieving to photons. Our experiment paves the way to study quantum network applications in a practical scenario.
