Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：57.37(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We theoretically propose the laser-induced Andreev reflection between two-component Fermi superfluid and normal states via spatially-uniform Rabi couplings. By analyzing the tunneling current between the superfluid and normal states up to the fourth order in the Rabi couplings, we find that the Andreev current exhibits unconventional non-Ohmic transport at zero temperature. Remarkably, the Andreev current gives the only contribution in the synthetic junction system at zero detunings regardless of the ratio of the chemical potential bias to the superfluid gap, which is in sharp contrast to that in the conventional superconductor-normal metal junction. Our result may also pave a way for understanding the black hole information paradox through the Andreev reflection as a quantum-information mirror.

We investigate the spectrum of spin conductivity for a miscible two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) that exhibits spin superfluidity. By using the Bogoliubov theory, the regular part being the spin conductivity at finite ac frequency and the spin Drude weight characterizingthe delta-function peak at zero frequency are analytically computed. We demonstrate that the spectrum exhibits a power-law behavior at low frequency, reflecting gapless density and spin modes specific to the binary BEC. At the phase transition points into immiscible and quantum-dropletstates, the change in quasiparticle dispersion relations modifies the power law. In addition, the spin Drude weight becomes finite, indicating zero spin resistivity due to spin superfluidity. Our results also suggest that the Andreev-Bashkin drag density is accessible by measuring the spin conductivity spectrum.

We show that the optical spin conductivity being a small AC response of a bulk spin current and elusive in condensed matter systems can be measured in ultracold atoms. We demonstrate that this conductivity contains rich information on quantum states by analyzing experimentally achievable systems. The obtained conductivity spectra being absent in the Drude conductivity reflect quasiparticle excitations and non-Fermi liquid properties. Unlike its mass transport counterpart, the spin conductivity serves as a probe applicable to clean atomic gases without disorder and lattice potentials. Our formalism can be generalized to various systems such as spin-orbit coupled and nonequilibrium systems.

Times Cited Count：4 Percentile：56.43(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We theoretically investigate optical bulk spin transport properties in a spin- topological Fermi superfluid. We specifically consider a one-dimensional system with an inter-spin 
-wave interaction, which can be realized in ultracold-atom experiments. Developing the BCS-Leggett theory to describe the BCS to Bose-Einstein condensate evolution and the Z
topological phase transition in this system, we show how the spin transport reflects these many-body aspects. We find that the optical spin conductivity, which is a small AC response of a spin current, shows the spin-gapped spectrum in the wide parameter region and the gap closes at the Z topological phase transition point. Moreover, the validity of the low-energy effective model of the Majorana zero mode is discussed along the BCS-BEC evolution in connection with the scale invariance at -wave unitarity.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.13(Physics, Applied)The bow wave induced mechanism of high-order harmonics generation was discovered using simulations and catastrophe theory. This mechanism feasibility was successfully demonstrated in 3D and 2D PIC simulations. The mechanism and the simulations explained high-order harmonics in the XUV spectral region seen in recent experiments with terawatt lasers. Development of new XUV light and X-ray source based on the high-order harmonics generation mechanism is proposed.

The authors are initiating systematic verification and validation activity to demonstrate the reliability of numerical simulation tool for sodium fire behavior postulated in a fast reactor plant. The activity is in progress with the main focuses on already developed sodium fire analysis codes SPHINCS and AQUA-SF. The events to be evaluated are sodium spray, pool, or combined fire accidents followed by thermodynamic behaviors. The present paper describes that the "Phenomena Identification and Ranking Table" is developed at first to clarify the important validation points in the codes, and that an "Assessment Matrix" is proposed which summarizes the tests for validating the computational models for important phenomena. Furthermore, the paper shows a practical validation with a separate effect test in which the spray droplet combustion model of both codes predicts the burned amount of a sodium droplet with the error mostly less than 30%.

Times Cited Count：69 Percentile：90.68(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We demonstrate a new high-order harmonic generation mechanism reaching the "water window" spectral region in experiments with multi-terawatt femtosecond lasers irradiating gas jets. A few hundred harmonic orders are resolved, giving 
J/sr pulses. Harmonics are collectively emitted by an oscillating electron spike formed at the joint of the boundaries of a cavity and bow wave created by a relativistically self-focusing laser in underdense plasma. The spike sharpness and stability are explained by catastrophe theory. The mechanism is corroborated by particle-in-cell simulations.

We demonstrate a compact, high-spatiotemporal-quality, high-intensity diode-pumped Yb:YAG thin-disk chirped-pulse amplification (CPA) laser system that incorporates a nonlinear preamplifier based on optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (OPCPA). The stretched pulses are amplified in the OPCPA preamplifier and the following Yb:YAG main amplifier to 
100 mJ at 10 Hz. The broadband amplified beam quality of 1.1 (horizontal direction) and 1.4 (vertical direction) times diffraction limited and pulse compression down to 470 fs with contrast of better than 10
have been achieved successfully.

Conceptual design study of the JSFR needs the evaluation of thermodynamic consequences in hypothetical sodium fire accident. The authors are therefore initiating systematic V&V activity for sodium fire evaluation tools. The activity is in progress with the main focuses on already developed sodium fire analysis codes SPHINCS and AQUA-SF. The present paper describes that a preliminary "PIRT" is developed at first, and an "assessment matrix" is proposed which summarizes both separate effect tests (SET) and integral effect tests (IET) for validating the computational models or whole code for important phenomena. Furthermore, the paper shows an individual validation with SET in which the spray droplet combustion model of SPHINCS and AQUA-SF predicts the burned amount of a falling sodium droplet with the error mostly less than 30%.
