    <div class="html-content">“Modified spontaneous emission in nanophotonic structures”

    <br><br>Nearly all of the light that reaches our eyes, whether it comes from the Sun, a light bulb, or the glowing display of a computer or smartphone, is generated by a physical process known as spontaneous emission.  The rate at which spontaneous emission occurs — that is, the amount of light given off by a material — was long thought to be an unchangeable property of the material involved.  However, we now understand it as arising from a quantum-mechanical interaction between the material and its environment.  It is thus possible to modify spontaneous emission by changing the environment of a light-emitting material.  This article reviews a range of research in modified spontaneous emission, pointing out common physical principles and clearing up potential misconceptions and pitfalls in interpreting experimental data.  It also reviews a few applications that this research may enable, including chemical and biochemical sensors, optical communication and information processing, and conversion of sunlight into electricity.</div>

<Title>Observations of Black Hole Jet Collision published in Nature</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">UMBC Astrophysicists Eileen Meyer and Markos Georganopoulos have recently published an article in the journal <em>Nature</em> (along with colleagues from STScI, FIT and JHU),  discussing recent observations of a jet from a super-massive black hole in the galaxy NGC 3862.  Using 20 years of imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope, the scientists were able to track the motion of high-energy plasma in the jet, clearly visible by eye in a movie created from the four epochs of observation.  They found that one bright ‘knot’ of plasma in the jet is in the process of colliding with a slower-moving knot just downstream. Colliding knots have long been theorized as a way to accelerate the particles which produce high-energy radiation in many astrophysical jets, but this is the first time such a collision has been observed. The paper appeared in the May 28th online edition of Nature.

<Title>Dr. Michael Hayden elected as Fellow of the Optical Society</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Dr. L. Michael Hayden, UMBC Professor of Physics and Department Chair, was honored as a 2015 Fellow Member of The Optical Society (OSA), the leading professional society for researchers, industry leaders, and students focused on the science of light and founded in 1916.   Dr. Hayden was one of 76 individuals recognized by OSA for their significant contributions to the advancement of optics and photonics.  Dr. Hayden's professional interests involve the study of new materials, including nonlinear optical and electro-optic polymers, and their use in terahertz applications.
    <br><br>OSA Fellows are selected based on their overall impact on optics, as gauged through factors such as specific scientific, engineering, and technological contributions, a record of significant publications or patents related to optics, technical leadership in the field, and service to OSA and the global optics community. Drawing from nominations from current fellows, the OSA Fellow Members Committee recommends candidates to the OSA Board of Directors. This process is highly competitive, as no more than 10 percent of the OSA Membership may be Fellows.
    <br><br>“This year’s class of OSA Fellows has offered prodigious service to OSA and the global optics community,” said OSA President Philip Bucksbaum. “The Optical Society is honored to offer recognition for their outstanding contributions and leadership in the optics and photonics profession.”

    <br><br><strong>Abstract:
    </strong><br>A noninvasive high resolving power quantum microscope would facilitate progress in the areas of research and development in biosciences as well as in the area of biomedical technology. Longer-wavelength microscopes, i.e., visible or near-infrared, can provide noninvasive features. On the other hand, shorter wavelengths, i.e., in the ultraviolet, can provide better resolving power. We propose the development of both a noninvasive and high resolving power quantum microscope by using two-color entangled photon ghost imaging technology.</div>

    <br><br><strong>Abstract:
    </strong><br>The recent experimental advances in capacitively coupled singlet-triplet qubits, particularly the demonstration of entanglement, opens the question of what type of entangling gates the system's Hamiltonian can produce directly via a single square pulse. We address this question by considering the system's Hamiltonian from first principles and using the representation of its nonlocal properties in terms of local invariants. In the analysis we include the three different ways in which the system can be biased and their effect on the generation of entangling gates. We find that, in one of the possible biasing modes, the Hamiltonian has an especially simple form, which can directly generate a wide range of different entangling gates including the iswap gate. Moreover, using the complete form of the Hamiltonian we find that, for any biasing mode, a cnot gate can be generated directly.</div>
