This document summarizes research on coherent-population-trapping transients induced by a modulated transverse magnetic field. The key points are:
1) Applying a transverse magnetic field causes new subsystems to form, new dark states to be created, and population to be rearranged among Zeeman sublevels.
2) When the transverse magnetic field is modulated over time, transients appear as the system switches between different steady-state solutions.
3) The contributions of the newly formed subsystems to the transient probe absorption spectra are discussed. Both the creation of new subsystems and population redistribution due to the transverse magnetic field influence the spectra.

Villamedic en su afán de poder compartir las resoluciones de los exámenes de ingreso a la residencia médica, elabora la serie “Residentado Médico” donde todos los docentes resolvemos las preguntas del examen y explicamos el porqué de dichas respuestas.
A diferencia del año 2015, el examen de Residentado Médico 2016 tuvo menos errores en las opciones del mismo, encontrándose sólo 2 o 3 errores en opciones y/o elaboración de preguntas; éstas se discuten en las resoluciones, hemos tratado en muchos casos de no sólo justificar la opción sino de poder discutir diversas situaciones contextualizando el tema para futuras revisiones, en algunos capítulos se mantuvieron preguntas clásicas como en los capítulos de pediatría, en otros se lograron tocar algunos temas de actualidad como en Infectología, pero en general la proporción de preguntas tuvo una distribución parecida a la tendencia revisada en las clases de Villamedic.
El nivel de dificultad no fue muy alto, en realidad un 22% del examen tuvo preguntas anteriormente formuladas algo que nos llama la atención puesto que el porcentaje de repetición generalmente bordea el 10%. Las situaciones de caso clínico sólo se dieron en un 30% de las preguntas, dejando el resto a preguntas de respuesta implícita, ello nos sigue sugiriendo la alta chance de obtener puntajes con el entrenamiento de preguntas por bancos selectos tal como lo plantea Villamedic en sus herramientas de preparación.
La forma de discusión que se tuvo para este año en la resolución fue por medio de 3 herramientas:
1. Esquemas resumen por tablas en las etiologías.
2. Fluxogramas para los diagnósticos y los enfoques terapéuticos.
3. Explicaciones breves puntualizando conceptos que se pueden aplicar en futuras situaciones del tema a preguntar.
Esperamos que disfruten la lectura de la Resolución, nosotros estamos muy contentos por el trabajo y aporte logrado esperando sus futuras contribuciones como se explican en páginas siguientes, sabemos que el camino de la medicina es un camino duro pero gratificante y como alguna vez nos lo dijo un gran maestro “No es una carrera de velocidad sino de resistencia”.

Direct detection of a break in the teraelectronvolt cosmic-ray spectrum of el...Sérgio Sacani
High-energy cosmic-ray electrons and positrons (CREs), which
lose energy quickly during their propagation, provide a probe of
Galactic high-energy processes1–7 and may enable the observation
of phenomena such as dark-matter particle annihilation or
decay8–10. The CRE spectrum has been measured directly up to
approximately 2 teraelectronvolts in previous balloon- or spaceborne
experiments11–16, and indirectly up to approximately 5
teraelectronvolts using ground-based Cherenkov γ-ray telescope
arrays17,18. Evidence for a spectral break in the teraelectronvolt
energy range has been provided by indirect measurements17,18,
although the results were qualified by sizeable systematic
uncertainties. Here we report a direct measurement of CREs in the
energy range 25 gigaelectronvolts to 4.6 teraelectronvolts by the
Dark Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE)19 with unprecedentedly
high energy resolution and low background. The largest part of
the spectrum can be well fitted by a ‘smoothly broken power-law’
model rather than a single power-law model. The direct detection of
a spectral break at about 0.9 teraelectronvolts confirms the evidence
found by previous indirect measurements17,18, clarifies the behaviour
of the CRE spectrum at energies above 1 teraelectronvolt and sheds
light on the physical origin of the sub-teraelectronvolt CREs.
The Equation Based on the Rotational and Orbital Motion of the PlanetsIJERA Editor
Equations of dependence of rotational and orbital motions of planets are given, their rotation angles are calculated. Wave principles of direct and reverse rotation of planets are established. The established dependencies are demonstrated at different scale levels of structural interactions, in biosystems as well. The accuracy of calculations corresponds to the accuracy of experimental data
Charged Lepton Flavour Violation in Left-Right Symmetric ModelSamim Ul Islam
The Standard Model is the best description of nature so far. It has many successes in particle physics. But there are also some limitations. For example, we have already observed neutrino oscillation. The standard model can not give a proper description of this. Lepton flavour mixing is also a very big and interesting puzzle. We also observe parity violations in the weak sector. The standard model can not give any proper explanation of these observed phenomena. If we consider the particle content of the standard model, there is no good explanation for the nonexistence of right-handed neutrino. Mass and coupling hierarchies are also not explained. Looking at these problems, one of the most natural extensions of the Standard Model is Minimal Left-Right Symmetric Model. We will explain in the model, how these hierarchies are solved naturally and also a good candidate for explaining charged lepton flavour violation, Parity violation, and neutrino majorana mass which is see-saw compatible with the help of extended Higgs sector. Then we will explicitly work out the MDM contribution at one loop in the LR model. It can be used to give bounds on the energy scale of the theory with the help of the magnetic dipole moment of the CLFV process. In the LR model, we get contributions from the extended Higgs sector for MDM as well as CLFV. But it is not enough due to phenomenology or observations. Considering LR symmetric model as the most realistic and natural, as it is not excluded yet, we will try to find possible ways to save the model, especially focusing on the charged lepton flavour violation problem.
Collision Dynamics of Optical Dark Solitons in a Generalized Variable-Coeffic...IJTET Journal
Abstract—We consider the generalized variable-coefficient single component nonlinear Schrödinger system with higher order effects such as the third-order dispersion, self-steepening and self-frequency shift, a model equation for the propagation of intense electromagnetic field in inhomogeneous optical fibers. For describing the long-distance communication, we obtain the optical multi-dark soliton using Hirota‘s bilinearization method. We are able to control the characteristics of optical multi-dark solitons in inhomogeneous optical fibers by choosing suitable variable-coefficient functions.
Study on the dependency of steady state response on the ratio of larmor and r...eSAT Journals
Abstract In this project we simulate with very high accuracy specially to study the dependency of the steady state power and dispersion output on the ratio (r) between Larmor and Rabi frequency for the electron spin resonance experiment by the matlab software (version 7.9.0.529(R2009b)). Where the sample material (DPPH) has been kept in a strong static magnetic field (B0) and in orthogonal direction a high frequency electromagnetic field (B1(t)) has been applied. We divide our simulation into two parts. In the first part we ignore the terms and observe the dependency of the power maximum on the amplitude of the oscillating e.m. field B1 (for fixed (ωL) Larmor frequency) and on ωL (for fixed B1). Also observe a clear shift (Δω) of the power maxima (Pmax) from ωL. In our second part we consider the term and the ratio (r) between Larmor and Rabi frequency and observe the shift (Δω) of the power maxima (Pmax) from ωL and change in peak to peak line width (ΔBPP) with B1 both depends upon the ratio r. we consider various range of r ([0.83,5], [16,100], [88.3,500], [1000,2000], [833.3,5000]) and observe these dependency. We observe as the ratio of r increases the output i.e. shift (Δω) and the change in ΔBPP with B1 decreases and converges to the case of neglecting terms. We also observe the shift (Δω) follows some non linear relationship with B1. Keywords: E.S.R., Larmor, Rabi, Ratio r, Spin
A SIMPLE METHOD TO AMPLIFY MICRO DISPLACEMENTijcisjournal
ABSTRACT
A simple method to amplify the micro displacements produced by magnetostrictive effect, giant magnetostrictive, converse piezoelectric and photo strictive effect, respectively, is reported. The device consists mainly of two material rods with different coefficients of strains vs intensity of external fields, which are rigidly jointed, so that the displacements created by different rods can be added directly. In contrast with all other methods reported so far, which are all based on the principle of lever, this approach holds some unique advantages that can be applied to respond to the electromagnetic fields with high frequency because there is no friction caused by the relative motion between levers and furthermore, an ideal and smooth amplification of micro displacement can be obtained with ease in principle.

SINGULAR RISE AND SINGULAR DROP OF CUTOFF FREQUENCIES IN SLOT LINE AND STRIP ...ijeljournal
The complete frequency spectrum of the circularly- shielded slot line and strip line are determined using an
efficient domain decomposition and mode matching method. Asymptotic analyses show that, when the gap
width of the slot line or the width of the strip line are too small, the TE frequencies may drop singularly and
the TM frequencies may rise singularly. These new properties greatly affect the cutoff frequencies.

of frequency ω1, and the Fg → Fe transition interacts with
a probe of frequency ω2. We use the equations for the
time evolution of the configuration as given by Boublil

system consisting of Zeeman sublevels with the addition of
decay from the ground and excited states to a reservoir and
collisions between the Zeeman sublevels of the ground states

same parameters as in Fig. 2. The dashed lines represent the times

III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
We will discuss the time-dependent spectra at various
two-photon detunings (labeled 1, 2, 3 in Fig. 2) for a zero
or constant value of Bz and for a modulated Bx according
to Bx = Bx0
sin[π/2 + ω(t − t0)], where ω is the modulation
frequency of the transverse magnetic field. In each case,
Bx = Bx0
and Bz are first applied, the system is allowed
to establish its steady-state properties, and then the TMF
is modulated (at time t0 = 0.9 ms). We will see that the
time-dependent spectra are easily understood by considering
transitions between the various steady-state solutions shown
in Fig. 2.
A. Modulation in the presence of Bz = 0
In the first case we consider, = 0 (point 1 in Fig. 2) and
Bz = Bx0
= 0.1 G. Thus, when the modulation begins, the
system is in the steady state whose spectrum is given by curve
(c) in Fig. 2, whereas when Bx = 0, the spectrum is given by
curve (b). It should be noted that in the presence of the TMF,
both the depth and the contrast are smaller than in its absence.
The resulting time-dependent spectrum is given in Fig 3.
Although the change seems adiabatic, the minimum ab-
sorption occurs a short time after the TMF reaches zero [8].
This adiabatic evolution is seen even when the modulation
frequency is increased, unlike the case of LMF modulation [8]
and the cases where = 0, which will be discussed below. The
contributions to the total probe absorption are shown in Fig. 3.
(The contributions of the TLS and 1 are not shown since
they are more or less constant.) As can be seen, the subsystem
that controls the total probe absorption is 2, which is in a
dark state in the absence of TMF, as evidenced by the increase
in the lower-level coherence shown in Fig. 4(c) and changes
to partial CPT in the presence of the TMF. The TMF also
transfers population between neighboring Zeeman sublevels
[see Eqs. (10)–(13)], as can be seen in Figs. 4(a) and 4(b).

FIG. 4. (Color online) Population and coherence evolution in the
presence of TMF modulation in the case of = 0. (a) Population of
the Fg sublevels: |m = −1 (red dotted line), |m = 0 (green solid
line), and |m = 1 (cyan dashed line). (b) Population of the Fg
sublevels : |m = −1 (red dotted), |m = 0 (green solid line), and
|m = 1 (cyan dashed line). (c) Lower-level coherence of 2 and 4
(green solid line), 5 (dotted blue line), and 6 (black dashed line).
Thus, whereas the LMF has no effect on the clock transition
2 because the Zeeman sublevels |m = 0 are not shifted to
first order in Bz, the TMF affects the |m = 0 Zeeman sublevels
by mixing them with the |m = ±1 Zeeman sublevels so that
now 2 determines the behavior of the total absorption.
In the presence of Bx, new subsystems that contribute
to the spectrum at = 0 are introduced: 4, |Fg,mg =
0 ↔ |Fe,me = −1 ↔ |Fg ,mg = 0 ; 5, |Fg,mg = −1 ↔
|Fe,me = 0 ↔ |Fg ,mg = 1 ; and 6, |Fg,mg = 1 ↔
|Fe,me = 0 ↔ |Fg ,mg = −1 . These are shown in Fig. 1(b).
The lower-level coherences of these subsystems are shown
in Fig. 4(c). In the presence of the TMF, both 2 and 4
contribute to the same lower-level coherence. However, the
dominant effect seems to be the transfer of population between
the sublevels rather than the addition of 4. As shown in
Fig. 4(c), the coherence between the lower levels of 5 and
6 is nonzero in the presence of TMF due to the creation of
dark states.
We now consider the case where = −3δ0, where δ0 =
μBg(B2
x0 + B2
z )1/2
(point 2 in Fig. 2). As in the previous case,
the system is first prepared by applying constant LMF and
TMF with Bz = Bx0
= 0.1 G so that the steady-state spectrum
is given by curve (c) in Fig. 2. When the TMF passes through
zero on modulation, the steady-state spectrum is given by curve
(b) in which the CPT dip at = −3δ no longer exists. Thus,
modulating the TMF in time switches the system between
cases (c) and (b). In Fig. 5, we see that applying the constant
magnetic fields causes the system to be in a state of CPT. When
the TMF modulation is applied, there is an immediate sharp
change in the probe absorption followed by weak oscillations
as the position of the CPT dip moves to a smaller value of
. The changes in the absorption as the absolute value of
the TMF approaches zero reflect the difference between the
baselines of cases (b) and (c) in Fig. 2. Only when the TMF

In the presence of the TMF, there are two new
subsystems with 3δ energy difference between their lower
sublevels [Fig. 1(c)] that contribute to the CPT dip.
These are 7, |Fg,mg = 1 ↔ |Fe,me = 1 ↔ |Fg ,mg = 2 ,
and 8, |Fg,mg = 1 ↔ |Fe,me = 2 ↔ |Fg ,mg = 2 . The
|Fg,mg = 1 ↔ |Fe,me = 2 transition of 8 is also part of
3, so that the contribution from 3 (as shown in Fig. 5) is
significant even though its energy difference is only 2δ.
The lower-level coherence between sublevels |Fg,mg =
1 and |Fg ,mg = 2 , which is shown in Fig. 6(a), has
contributions from both 7 and 8; thus, this coherence
is created in the presence of the TMF and vanishes when
the TMF vanishes. In order to distinguish between the
contributions of 7 and 8, we plot the time dependence
of the imaginary part of the density matrix (proportional to the
absorption) for the transitions |Fe,me = 1 ↔ |Fg ,mg = 2
and |Fe,me = 2 ↔ |Fg ,mg = 2 in Fig. 6(b) and for the
transitions |Fe,me = 1 ↔ |Fg,mg = 1 and |Fe,me = 2 ↔
|Fg,mg = 1 in Fig. 6(c). We can see that 8, which has a
common transition with 3, gives the greater contribution.
Simultaneous modulation of LMF and TMF at the same
frequency, in the absence of constant magnetic fields, can be
described by switching between cases (c) and (a) of the steady-
state spectrum shown in Fig. 2. When = 0, the evolution
of the probe absorption will be similar to that obtained in
the presence of only LMF modulation (Fig. 2 of [8]) or only
TMF modulation (see Fig. 7), namely, a sharp transient that
appears a short time after the MFs cross zero. For a detuned
probe there are two kinds of transients. The first type occurs
immediately after the total MF deviates from the value that
offsets the probe detuning in each individual subsystem,
so that several transients are obtained. The second kind of
transient occurs immediately after the total MF crosses zero

B. Modulation in the absence of Bz
So far, we have discussed the CPT transients induced by
modulation of the TMF in the presence of a constant LMF.
Now, we will examine the CPT transients induced in the
absence of the LMF. Thus, when the modulation begins, the
system is in the steady state whose spectrum is given by curve
(d) in Fig. 2, whereas when Bx = 0, the spectrum is given

by curve (a). In the presence of the TMF, both the depth and
the contrast are much smaller than in its absence. In Fig. 7,
the total probe absorption in the presence of the modulated
TMF at = 0 (point 1 in Fig. 2) is shown. The time evolution
in this case is similar to that obtained in the presence of a
modulated LMF [8]: namely, a sharp transient that appears
a short time after the magnetic field passes through zero,
followed by damped oscillations.
We now detune the probe to = −3δ0 (point 3 in Fig. 2).
When the modulation begins, the steady-state spectrum is
given by curve (d) in Fig. 2, whereas when Bx = 0, the
spectrum is given by curve (a). We see in Fig. 8 that there
are two sets of transients: the transients that occur just after
the TMF reaches its maximal absolute value that also occur
at this value of in the presence of Bz (see Fig. 5) and the
transients that occur immediately after the TMF passes through
zero (see Fig. 7). The transients that occur just after the TMF
reaches its maximal absolute value are caused by the shift of
CPT to a lower value of . The transients that happen after
the TMF passes through zero reflect the difference between
the baselines in cases (d) and (a).
A three-dimensional figure that summarizes the effect of
the TMF modulation on the probe absorption spectrum as a
function of detuning in the absence of the LMF is shown in
Fig. 9. The plot begins at time t0 and ends after almost a
half cycle of TMF modulation. At time t0, we see the seven
resonance dips clearly. As the absolute value of the TMF
decreases, the dips at = 0, ±2δ become weaker, and the
distance between the dips decreases. When the TMF crosses
zero, the Zeeman sublevels become degenerate, and all the
dips appear at = 0. For any other value of , the transient
that appears after the TMF crosses zero reflects the difference
between the baselines in cases (d) and (a) in Fig 2. A similar
picture in the presence of a constant LMF (not shown here)
also displays the seven CPT resonances changing their position
and intensity as the value of δ changes. When the TMF crosses
zero, only the original subsystems at = 0, ±2δ remain.

IV. CONCLUSIONS
We have examined the probe absorption transients induced
by a modulated TMF in the absence and presence of a LMF.
We showed the transients that appear as the system is switched
between the various steady-state situations whose spectra are
shown in Fig. 2. We discussed the contributions of the various
subsystems to the transient probe absorption spectra in each
case.
We chose two different probe detunings, = 0 and =
−3δ0, which are indicative of the time-dependent behavior as
a function of probe detuning, in order to describe the evolution
of the probe absorption in time during the TMF modulation.
For any probe detuning chosen, one can see that the probe
absorption changes due to the creation and disappearance of
subsystems.
We showed that the evolution in the presence of a constant
LMF seems adiabatic and that transients appear only after the
CPT dip moves from the chosen value of to a different value.
In the absence of a constant LMF, the evolution is sharper, and
in addition to the transients that appear after the CPT dip
changes its position, there are also transients that appear as the
TMF crosses zero. This can provide a means for recognizing
the presence of a LMF in the system.
We also noticed differences between the TMF modulation
and the LMF modulation, studied previously [8]. Whereas
modulating the LMF leads to variation in the contributions to
the absorption that derive from the original subsystems due
to their entry and exit from CPT, the TMF modulation leads to
the creation and destruction of new subsystems.
