Coupling Definition and 385 Threads

When you need to couple ac signals you use coupling capacitors. How do we decide its value and what are the uses of coupling capacitors?

Hello, I'm trying to understand the standard model, and I'm confused in a few places. Correct me please, if I seem confused somewhere. I'll give my understanding first, and then a few questions. I'm certain I have a couple of things not straight in my head. Alright, so the standard model has...

Homework Statement I am trying to find the mtuual inductance between two p-core inductors (they share the same core) but I am not sure how the coupling coefficient would be calculated. I know the inductance of both coils. What else would I have to know in order to calculate the coupling...

I am very interested in calculating the vibronic couplings of a particular system quantitatively, but I am very new to Quantum Physics... so I will highly appreciate your guidance on where to start from? What kind of mathematics do I need to learn? I am quite puzzled because If I have...

Hello Forum, This is my first post. There is some preamble, but the problem itself is straightforward enough, even though I cannot solve it. I'm trying to calculate the spin orbit matrix for an alkali metal atom at the centre of a complex of 12 noble gas...

Can someone point me to a reference that explains how the (effective) running coupling behaves in the weak interactions(at 1-loop order). I couldn't find it... If I understand correctly, than the coupling is g = \frac{e}{sin(\theta_W)} where e is the QED coupling, which increases with energy...

Hi! I'm doing some QM calculations and I'm coupling three spins j_1,j_2,j_3 If they are coupled in ls-coupling I can use the transformation |j_1j_2j_3(j_{23}):JM>=\\ \sum (-1)^{j_1+j_2+j_3+j}\sqrt{2j_{12}+1}\sqrt{2j_{23}+1} \begin{Bmatrix} j_1 & j_2 & j_{12} \\ j_{3} & J & j_{23}...

The "cause" of entanglement / coupling Hi all, two questions. I don't have a physics background (but have a decent mathematical background, and have dabbled in QM). * What is the difference between entanglement and coupling? Wikipedia says they're "almost" the same thing, except for the...

Hi just wondering if anyone could tell me why the Z boson can couple to any standard model particle except forgluons and photons?

There are two cases introduced in the lecture notes, depending on strength of spin-orbital coupling in individual electrons, since V_{SL} \propto Z^{4}. 1) jj coupling, which is valid for large-Z atoms, where spin-orbital coupling > electrostatic replusion between electrons 2) L-S coupling or...

This is rather a straightforward question I believe, but somehow I'm not sure about the wording of it... Homework Statement Calculate g value (Landé g factor) for sd configuration in jj coupling. Homework Equations g = 1 + \frac{J(J+1) - L(L+1) + S(S+1)}{2J(J+1)} The Attempt...

Hi, I want to couple two different modules of COMSOL. For example u is the solution of Module 1 and I want to give 0.95*u+a as subdomain settings parameter in module 2. Here a is a vector. I have succeeded with u and 0.95*u to use as subdomain settings parameter of module 2 but when I add a ...

So, this has been bugging me for years (seriously). So my spectroscopy course says the following: 1) In an atom, for a closed subshell, for each electron possesing an m_l quantum number there is another electron possesing -m_l, which means that the sum M_L = \sum {m_l} = 0. I have no problem...

I feel like playing with a scale model of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational%E2%80%93vibrational_coupling Do chemistry supply stores sell any? For educationnal purposes? Or do I have to build one?

Okay, I get that we need it to block DC while allowing the AC to pass. But if we have to block DC, why apply it in the first place? Is it because we apply it to a certain level and then we want to keep it to that level so we block any further interference by DC? Thanks.

Hi, these days I have been trying to understand the essentials of the so-called topological insulators (TBI), such as Bi2Te3, which seem very hot in current research. As i understand, these materials should possesses at the same time gapped bulk bands but gapless surface bands, and spin-orbit...

What is the relation between the coupling coefficient and the fraction of flux from one inductor going through the other inductor?

So I understand that the tensor product of two vector spaces constitutes a new vector space. In the case of spin coupling you have some arbitrary vector |x,z> where x represents the spin state of particle 1 and z represents the spin state of particle 2; bot spin states being general 2 element...

What is the difference between coupling and constrain equations in ansys

Hi everyone, I am trying to figure out what is the coupling of a surface plasmon with a photon for the generation of a surface plasmon polariton. In fact I don't understand what a coupling is in this context. Some texts say that for the coupling to happen is necessary that the dispersion...

Dear all, would anybody know of references regarding experimental constraints on the running of the weak coupling ? This running is rather slow, and I guess we do not have evidence one way or the other, but since the SM and the MSSM have opposite slopes, I'd like to see what kind of...

Hi. In Hund's second rule, it seems that we calculate the value of L simply by summing the L_z components of the individual electrons. But L has to do with the eigenvalue of the L^2 operator, i.e. the eigenvalue is L(L+1). So how can this be correct?

I just read something about the creation of deuteron in the first step of the pp cycle. Given that you have the reaction: p + p -> d + e^+ + v_e, where e^+ is a positron and v_e is an electron neutrino. Since there is a neutrino present, it is a weak interaction. In addition, as the interaction...

What is the minimal coupling principle? Is it some sort of a prescription? Thx

Hi, I was reading a lecture of qft and I found that two equations: \begin{flalign*} i \gamma^\mu \partial_\mu\psi_R - m\psi_L=0 \\ i \gamma^\mu \partial_\mu\psi_L - m\psi_R=0 \end{flalign*} after splitting in two Dirac's equation with Weyl's projectors. I found that really interesting that the...

I hope someone can help me out here. I am having difficulty understanding what the difference is between the spin orbit interaction and LS coupling scheme in atoms. I know the spin orbit interaction (or spin orbit coupling) is due to the interaction of say an electron's spin with it's orbital...

I realize that energy is a touchy subject in GR in dynamical situations, and people argued for a long time whether or not gravitational waves carried energy. But it sounds like there has been agreement for quite awhile now that they do carry energy. Since in weak gravity situations, we can...

More specifically, I have an NMOS oscillator, where the output is taken from the source terminal. I have to couple the output (50 Ohm load) with a coupling capacitor, but is this going to affect my calculations of the resonant frequency of the circuit? In my case, I have a Clapp oscillator...

Let's say I'm considering the 3p^2 electrons. From the Pauli Exclusion Principle, we know that two electrons cannot have the same state, which in this case means ml and ms cannot both be the same for each electron. What this means is that the following 6 terms must not be allowed: m_{l1}...

Hi, In particle physics, what does 'coupling' mean? I can't find a definition anywhere and books just assume you know what it is. For example, "the Higgs couples to light particles". Also, what does it mean to say that something strongly or weakly couples to something else? Any help...

Hello All, I've been playing worth some DDS output filter and amplifier circuits in the simulator and have run into an interesting little problem. I want to make an output that can range from 0.2Hz to 20Mhz and so far I have built a very nice reconstruction filter that can give me a very...

You still have not answered the question; What are the two forces of the weak angle coupling constant? We have spin and charge as known forces. If you can not specifically identify spin or charge as one of the two forces involved in the weak coupling constant than for all you know there...

Homework Statement Just a quick question, the Z can couple to leptons and there antiLeptons and quarks and there corresponding antiquark. Is the coupling constant just Gz for all these interactions? Or is it Gz.Sin(z) for some and not for others? Iv seen different notation and am wondering...

The Schrodinger equation with the minimal coupling to the Electromagnetic field, in the Coulomb gauge \nabla \cdot A , has a continuity equation \partial_t \rho = \nabla \cdot j where j \propto Re[p^* D p] (D is the covariant gradient D= \nabla + iA . My question is: is there any...

Hi - I live full time in an RV that is surrounded by aluminum - essentially a faraday cage, except for a few rather small windows. I'd like to mount a WiFi antenna on the roof and run a cable in a window or thru a small hole. Basic issue - how to get a good signal from a campground WiFi...

Suppose there is a field that couples to the stress-energy tensor. For simplicity, assume it's a scalar field coupling to T=T^\mu_\mu. Since contracting Einstein's equations with the metric yield the relation R = 8\pi G T, is it correct to say that the field also couples to R?

In a spectroscopy experiment proposal I am working on, I had the idea to use a CMOS Image sensor (monochromatic) coupled to an interferometer to record data of the O2 green line in the atmosphere. In my ignorance, I cannot seem to figure out what kind of data processor I should attach to the...
