  • Testing the quantum Superposition Principle in the frequency domain
    Physical Review A, 2014
    Co-Authors: Mohammad Bahrami, Angelo Bassi, Hendrik Ulbricht
    Abstract:

    New technological developments allow to explore the quantum properties of very complex systems, bringing the question of whether also macroscopic systems share such features, within experimental reach. The interest in this question is increased by the fact that, on the theory side, many suggest that the quantum Superposition Principle is not exact, departures from it being the larger, the more macroscopic the system. Here we propose a novel way to test the possible violation of the Superposition Principle, by analyzing its effect on the spectral properties of a generic two-level system. We will show that spectral lines shapes are modified, if the Superposition Principle is violated, and we quantify the magnitude of the violation. We show how this effect can be distinguished from that of standard environmental noises. We argue that accurate enough spectroscopic experiments are within reach, with current technology

  • Testing the quantum Superposition Principle in the frequency domain
    Physical Review A, 2014
    Co-Authors: Mohammad Bahrami, Angelo Bassi, Hendrik Ulbricht
    Abstract:

    We study how photon emission of a two-level system is modified if the Superposition Principle is violated. We solve the relevant equations of motion. We quantify the magnitude of the new spectral effects for relevant collapse models to illustrate our theoretical results. We show how these effects can be distinguished from those of standard environmental decoherence. We apply our result to physically interesting systems and suggest that accurate-enough spectroscopic experiments are within reach with current technology.

  • Development of a flow stress model for metals using the strain rate /temperature Superposition Principle
    III European Conference on Computational Mechanics, 1
    Co-Authors: Ch. Husson, Julien Richeton, Said Ahzi
    Abstract:

    The stress-strain response of metallic materials and alloys is influenced by the temperature at which deformation occurs and by the loading rate. To model this behavior under a wide range of strain rates and temperatures we propose to use the strain rate / temperature Superposition Principle: an increase in temperature will have the same effect on the yield stress as a decrease in strain rate. This type of approach has been recently proposed to model the yield behavior of solid polymers. Here we show that this approach can be extended to model the yielding and flow stress evolution in ductile metals. For a wide range of temperatures and strain rates, the Superposition Principle is applied for different metals such as copper and high strength steel. This comparison showed a good agreement with the experimental data found in the literature.
