The early universe may have been such a violent place that space-time itself fractured like a pane of glass, releasing gravitational waves that astronomers say we may have already detected.

Уважаемые коллеги!

На заседании Ученого совета в пятницу  17 марта в 11:30 будут заслушаны
2 доклада:

1) С.И. Матвеенко
*Ротоны в Бозе-конденсате дипольных атомов.*

Найдены аналитические и численные решения для спектров возбуждений
ротонного типа в квазиодномерном Бозе-конденсате магнитных дипольных
атомов. Вычислен коэффициент затухания возбуждений при конечной
температуре. Результаты могут быть применимы к конденсату атомов
диспрозия, для которого показано, что ротонные возбуждения достаточно
долгоживущие и могут быть наблюдаемы.


2) Н.А. Иногамов
*Структурирование поверхности кремния с помощью фемтосекундного импульса
и дифракции на микропузырьке*. (короткий доклад)

Laser-assisted nanostructuring of silicon interfaces provides a unique
procedure for leading-edge technologies. We report on a new embossing
technique with tightly focused Gaussian-shaped ultrashort laser pulses
near the ablation threshold in liquid. We take advantage of a primary
microbubble for controllable spatial-modulation of light intensity of
succeeding pulses. Such a bubble, generated in liquid near the molten
silicon surface by the first pulse, serves as an obstacle for the second
pulse following with a sub-millisecond time delay, to produce a
diffraction ring pattern. Variation of laser intensity can be utilized
to guide the diffraction patterns. Thus the various annular patterns
deeply embossed up to hundreds nanometers on the surface are produced
with high reproducibility. Morphology of modified surface layer is
investigated in detail using atomic-force microscopy, as well as
scanning and transmission electron microscopies. Full-wave EM modeling
of laser beam diffraction by the bubbles with various radii and shapes
shows that the peak intensity in silicon is up to 1.7 times higher than
in bubble-free liquid. Atomistic simulation of ultrafast heating with
such a diffraction peak reveals that an annular microdimple surrounded
by rims is formed by high-gradient pressure in molten silicon to be
frozen after several nanoseconds.
