We present a simple analysis of the force noise associated with the mechanical damping of the motion of a test body surrounded by a large volume of rarefied gas. The calculation is performed considering the momentum imparted by inelastic collisions against the sides of a cubic test mass, and for other geometries for which the force noise could be an experimental limitation. In addition to arriving at an accurated estimate, by two alternative methods, we discuss the limits of the applicability of this analysis to realistic experimental configurations in which a test body is surrounded by residual gas inside an enclosure that is only slightly larger than the test body itself.

We present a simple mechanical model for dynamic wetting phenomena. Metallic balls spread along a periodically corrugated surface simulating molecules of liquid advancing along a solid substrate. A vertical stack of balls mimics a liquid droplet. Sto chastic motion of the balls, driven by mechanical vibration of the corrugated surface, induces diffusional motion. Simple theoretical estimates are introduced and agree with the results of the analog experiments, with numerical simulation, and with experimental data for microscopic spreading dynamics.
We report on the spectral analysis and the local measurement of intensity correlations of microwave fields using ultra cold quantum gases. The fluctuations of the electromagnetic field induce spin flips in a magnetically trapped quantum gas and gener ate a multi-mode atomlaser. The output of the atomlaser is measured with high temporal resolution on the single atom level, from which the spectrum and intensity correlations of the generating microwave field are reconstructed. We give a theoretical description of the atomlaser output and its correlations in response to resonant microwave fields and verify the model with measurements on an atom chip. The measurement technique is applicable for the local analysis of classical and quantum noise of electromagnetic fields, for example on chips, in the vicinity of quantum electronic circuits.
We provide a detailed analysis on the acoustic radiation force and torque exerted on a homogeneous viscoelastic particle in the long-wave limit (the particle radius is much smaller than the incident wavelength) by an arbitrary wave. We assume that th e particle behaves as a linear viscoelastic solid, which obeys the fractional Kelvin-Voigt model. Simple analytical expressions for the radiation force and torque are obtained considering the low- and high-frequency approximation in the viscoelastic model. The developed theory is used to describe the interaction of acoustic waves (traveling and standing plane waves, and zero- and first-order Bessel beams) with a low- and high-density polyethylene particle chosen as examples. Negative axial radiation force and torque are predicted when the ratio of the longitudinal to shear relaxation times is smaller than a constant that depends on the speed of sound in the particle. In addition, a full 3D tractor Bessel vortex beam acting on the high-density polyethylene is depicted. These predictions may enable new possibilities of particle handling in acoustophoretic techniques.

This paper presents some novel contributions to the theory of inviscid flow regarding the forces exerted on a body moving through such a fluid in two dimensions. It is argued that acceleration of the body corresponds to vorticity generation that is i ndependent of the instantaneous velocity of the body and thus the boundary condition on the normal velocity. The strength of the vortex sheet representing the body retains a degree of freedom that represents the net effect of the tangential boundary condition associated with the viscous flow governed by the higher-order Navier-Stokes equations. This degree of freedom is the circulation of the vorticity generated by the acceleration of the body. Equivalently, it is the net circulation around a contour enclosing the body and any shed vorticity. In accordance with Kelvins circulation theorem, a non-zero value of the circulation around this system is necessarily communicated to infinity. This contrasts with the usual acceptance of the theorem as requiring this circulation to be zero at all times; a condition that is incapable of capturing the effect of newly generated vorticity on the body surface when it accelerates. Additionally, the usual boundary condition of continuity of normal velocity is relaxed to allow for fluid entrainment into surfaces of discontinuity that represent the mass contained within the viscous layers of the physical problem. The generalized force calculation is presented in detail. The importance of the vorticity generation due to body acceleration is demonstrated on some modeled problems relevant to biological propulsion.
We develop a theoretical approach for the dynamics of Rydberg excitations in ultracold gases, with a realistically large number of atoms. We rely on the reduction of the single-atom Bloch equations to rate equations, which is possible under various e xperimentally relevant conditions. Here, we explicitly refer to a two-step excitation-scheme. We discuss the conditions under which our approach is valid by comparing the results with the solution of the exact quantum master equation for two interacting atoms. Concerning the emergence of an excitation blockade in a Rydberg gas, our results are in qualitative agreement with experiment. Possible sources of quantitative discrepancy are carefully examined. Based on the two-step excitation scheme, we predict the occurrence of an antiblockade effect and propose possible ways to detect this excitation enhancement experimentally in an optical lattice as well as in the gas phase.
