The lifespan of solutions of semilinear wave equations with the scale-invariant damping in one space dimension
The critical constant of time-decaying damping in the scale-invariant case is recently conjectured. It also has been expected that the lifespan estimate is the same as for the associated semilinear heat equations if the constant is in the \heat-like" domain. In this paper, we point out that this is not true if the tota...

Non-Landau damping of magnetic excitations in systems with localized and itinerant electrons
We discuss the form of the damping of magnetic excitations in a metal near a ferromagnetic instability. The paramagnon theory predicts that the damping term should have the form $\Omega/\Gamma (q)$ with $\Gamma (q) \propto q$ (the Landau damping). However, the experiments on uranium metallic compounds UGe$_2$ and UCoGe...

Oscillatory wave fronts in chains of coupled nonlinear oscillators
Wave front pinning and propagation in damped chains of coupled oscillators are studied. There are two important thresholds for an applied constant stress $F$: for $|F|<F_{cd}$ (dynamic Peierls stress), wave fronts fail to propagate, for $F_{cd} < |F| < F_{cs}$ stable static and moving wave fronts coexist, and for $|F| ...

Classical dynamics of a nano-mechanical resonator coupled to a single-electron transistor
We analyze the dynamics of a nano-mechanical resonator coupled to a single-electron transistor (SET) in the regime where the resonator behaves classically. A master equation is derived describing the dynamics of the coupled system which is then used to obtain equations of motion for the average charge state of the SET ...

Collective mode damping and viscosity in a 1D unitary Fermi gas
We calculate the damping of the Bogoliubov-Anderson mode in a one-dimensional two-component attractive Fermi gas for arbitrary coupling strength within a quantum hydrodynamic approach. Using the Bethe-Ansatz solution of the 1D BCS-BEC crossover problem, we derive analytic results for the viscosity covering the full ran...

Spin wave dynamics and the determination of intrinsic Gilbert damping in locally-excited Permalloy thin films
Time-resolved scanning Kerr effect microscopy has been used to study magnetization dynamics in Permalloy thin films excited by transient magnetic pulses generated by a micrometer-scale transmission line structure. The results are consistent with magnetostatic spin wave theory and are supported by micromagnetic simulati...

Dissipation and Topologically Massive Gauge Theories in Pseudoeuclidean Plane
In the pseudo-euclidean metrics Chern-Simons gauge theory in the infrared region is found to be associated with dissipative dynamics. In the infrared limit the Lagrangian of 2+1 dimensional pseudo-euclidean topologically massive electrodynamics has indeed the same form of the Lagrangian of the damped harmonic oscillato...

Landau Damping and Coherent Structures in Narrow-Banded 1+1 Deep Water Gravity Waves
We study the nonlinear energy transfer around the peak of the spectrum of surface gravity waves by taking into account nonhomogeneous effects. In the narrow-banded approximation the kinetic equation resulting from a nonhomogeneous wave field is a Vlasov-Poisson type equation which includes at the same time the random v...

Nonadiabatic Transitions for a Decaying Two-Level-System: Geometrical and Dynamical Contributions
We study the Landau-Zener Problem for a decaying two-level-system described by a non-hermitean Hamiltonian, depending analytically on time. Use of a super-adiabatic basis allows to calculate the non-adiabatic transition probability P in the slow-sweep limit, without specifying the Hamiltonian explicitly. It is found th...

The geometrical quantity in damped wave equations on a square
The energy in a square membrane $\Omega$ subject to constant viscous damping on a subset $\omega\subset \Omega$ decays exponentially in time as soon as $\omega$ satisfies a geometrical condition known as the "Bardos-Lebeau-Rauch" condition. The rate $\tau(\omega)$ of this decay satisfies $\tau(\omega)= 2 \min(-\mu(\ome...

Constraint on the growth factor of the cosmic structure from the damping of the baryon acoustic oscillation signature
We determine a constraint on the growth factor by measuring the damping of the baryon acoustic oscillations in the matter power spectrum using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey luminous red galaxy sample. The damping of the BAO is detected at the one sigma level. We obtain \sigma_8D_1(z=0.3) = 0.42^{+0.34}_{-0.28} at the 1\...

A symmetry trip from Caldirola to Bateman damped systems
For the Caldirola-Kanai system, describing a quantum damped harmonic oscillator, a couple of constant-of-motion operators generating the Heisenberg algebra can be found. The inclusion of the standard time evolution symmetry in this algebra for damped systems, in a unitary manner, requires a non-trivial extension of thi...

Controlling Excitations Inversion of a Cooper Pair Box Interacting with a Nanomechanical Resonator
We investigate the action of time dependent detunings upon the excitation inversion of a Cooper pair box interacting with a nanomechanical resonator. The method employs the Jaynes-Cummings model with damping, assuming different decay rates of the Cooper pair box and various fixed and t-dependent detunings. It is shown ...

Spin-Scattering Rates in Metallic Thin Films Measured by Ferromagnetic Resonance Damping Enhanced by Spin-Pumping
We determined the spin-transport properties of Pd and Pt thin films by measuring the increase in ferromagnetic resonance damping due to spin-pumping in ferromagnetic (FM)-nonferromagnetic metal (NM) multilayers with varying NM thicknesses. The increase in damping with NM thickness depends strongly on both the spin- and...

Nonlinear analysis of magnetization dynamics excited by spin Hall effect
We investigate the possibility of exciting self-oscillation in a perpendicular ferromagnet by the spin Hall effect on the basis of a nonlinear analysis of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation. In the self-oscillation state, the energy supplied by the spin torque during a precession on a constant energy curve shou...

Periodic-coefficient damping estimates, and stability of large-amplitude roll waves in inclined thin film flow
A technical obstruction preventing the conclusion of nonlinear stability of large-Froude number roll waves of the St. Venant equations for inclined thin film flow is the "slope condition" of Johnson-Noble-Zumbrun, used to obtain pointwise symmetrizability of the linearized equations and thereby high-frequency resolvent...

Large spin pumping effect in antisymmetric precession of Ni$_{79}$Fe$_{21}$/Ru/Ni$_{79}$Fe$_{21}$
In magnetic trilayer structures, a contribution to the Gilbert damping of ferromagnetic resonance arises from spin currents pumped from one layer to another. This contribution has been demonstrated for layers with weakly coupled, separated resonances, where magnetization dynamics are excited predominantly in one layer ...

In this paper, we consider some blow-up problems for the 1D Euler equation with time and space dependent damping. We investigate sufficient conditions on initial data and the rate of spatial or time-like decay of the coefficient of damping for the occurrence of the finite time blow-up. In particular, our sufficient con...

The effect of liquid on the vibrational intensity of a wineglass at steady state resonance
As a liquid is inserted into a wineglass, the natural frequency of the wineglass decreases. This phenomenon, known as pitch lowering, is well explained in past papers. However, previous literature have not yet mentioned that pitch lowering also reduces the resonance intensity of a wineglass. Thus, this present paper ai...
