    Help Understanding Response Function $$H(\omega)$$

    $$<H(\omega)>=\sum_{j} χ_{HAj}h_j(\omega)$$ Where $$χ_{HA}=\frac{1}{2\hbar} Tr{{\rho}[{H(t)},{A(0)}]}$$. But $$[H(t),A(0)]=[H_o,A(0)]-[A(t)h,A(0)]=-h_0 cos(\omega t)[A(t),A(0)]$$. So $$χ_{HA}=-\frac{1}{2\hbar}Tr(\rho h_0 cos(\omega t)[A(t),A(0)])=-h_0cos(\omega t)χ_{AA}$$. Then...

    A Longitudinal and transverse response function

    I was reading the book "finite temperature field theory" (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0521820820/?tag=pfamazon01-20) and encountered a problem on page 111 about linear response theory. Consider a system with some conserved baryon matter perturbed by a source J_\mu, coupled to the baryon current...

    Transfer Function vs Frequency Response Function

    Ive read other threads on here about this and am still slightly confused about it. I did a little experiment; and I am hoping someone can help shed some light on the results. The experiment: 1. Create a system: modeled after a simple spring-mass-damper with mass=1 damping zeta=.1, natural...

    Can the system response function be calculated?

    Suppose we represent the input information as a (nx1) column vector, the output information as another (nx1) column vector and the system response function as a (nxn) matrix. My question, is it possible to calculate the values of the cells of the matrix knowing the input and the output? For...

    Frequency response function of periodic-stiffness model of system

    Hi, I'm analyzing a 3 dof undamped system with discrete springs and masses. Three of the springs have time-dependent stiffness, following periodic law (with period T), they are modulated at the same frequency but with a phase difference of 120 deg one from the other. So this is my system: (M *...

    On deriving response function in simple low pass filter

    Homework Statement I have a problem where the circuit is as follows: (pic attached I hope) but if you can't see it it's just a power source (AC), resistor and inductor with 2 terminals across the inductor (from were you measure the voltage). I want to derive the response function, and I am...

    Dipole excitation response function - physical interpretation

    Hi everyone, I'm a new member but it's not the first time I look at the forum. Well, I don't know if this is the right section to post my question. I think it is related to quantum mechanics interpretation too. Anyway, let's have a look at my problem. I've computed cross section for photon...

    Impulse Response Function Problem

    I attempted by inputting u(τ-t)u(t-τ) into the second part of the integral. Since I want to change the second part of the integral to go from [+∞, -∞]. And as for first part of the integral I added a u(t-τ) term after the x(τ) to change the integral from [t,-∞] into [+∞, -∞]. I am not sure if I...

    Frequency response function (polar diagram)

    This isn't really a homework question but I felt this is the most relevant section for this. I therefore apologize for not following the standard post template. I was going through my electrical engineering notes on frequency response functions. It was explaining how to plot frequency response...

    How Do You Convert Frequency Response Function H(iw) to Time Domain h(t)?

    I am trying to find the frequency response function given the input and output spectra from the picture i got that X(iw) = iU(w)U(2-w) - iU(w+2)U(w) and that Y(iw) = iwU(w)U(1-w) - iwU(w+1)U(w) So H(iw) = Y(iw)/X(iw) and H(iw) = wU(1-w) - wU(w+1) / U(2-w) - U(w+2) i am having...

    Impulse response function & Laplace transforms

    i am given the Laplace transform of an impulse response function, as well as its input. i am supposed to find its output. H(s) = 1/s2 + s + 1 x(t) = sin2(t-1)U(t-1) what i have done so far is the following: i know that Y(s) = H(s)X(s) and from this i can easily find y(t) so i found X(s)...

    Response Function for a Damped, Linear Oscillator

    I have a damped linear oscillator, originally at rest in its equilibrium position [therefore, x(0)=0 and x'(0)=0]. It is subjected to a forcing function: F(t)/m = {0, if t<0 {a(t/tau), if 0<t<tau {a, if t>tau I have to find the response function. However, when I attempt to find the step...
