The Bloch Equation Method of Ignoring the Relaxation Time

Lu Huidong

Bloch equation is applied widely in magnetic resonance,laser physics etc..But it's some difficult to obtain the non-oscillatory and ignore the relaxation time Bloch equation.In this paper,the analytic solution can be calculated by the eigenvalues of a matrix,eigenvector and numerical solution of differential equations.

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF BLOCH NMR TO SOLVE THE SCHRODINGER TIME DEPENDENT EQUATION

Moses Eterigho Emetere

Many solutions have been propounded for Schrodinger’s equation. The application of these solutions is restricted to a few aspects of physics. One of the methods used for solving the Schrodinger equation is the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method [1]. It was used to solve numerically the Schrodinger equation for ground state and excited state eigenvalues, and eigenfunctions for a single particle in one-, two-, and three-dimensional potential wells. In the past, analytical methods which have been used to solve the Schrodinger equation are: supersymmetry [1], Nikiforov Uvarov method (NU) [3], asymptotic iteration method (AIM) [4,5], hyperviria perturbation [6], exact quantization rule (EQR) [7], perturbative formalism [8], wave function ansatz method [9], and path integral [10]. In all these methods highlighted above, none has been incorporated with the Bloch NMR to solve nuclear spin among other problems in physics and chemistry. The solution of the Schrodinger equation using the mathematical modeling of Bloch NMR has wide range of applications in many fields of physics and chemistry. It can be used for checking and improving models developed to study quantum mechanical systems, improve on the effective analysis of biological systems, analyzing spin transport, nuclear spin dynamics, improvement of the numerical methods and so on. In Sec. 2, the solution of the Schrodinger is given. In Sec. 3, the solution was validated by applying it to the harmonic solution. The energy

A Complete Solution of the Bloch Equation

Thomas E. Skinner

The Bloch equation is the fundamental dynamical model applicable to arbitrary two-level systems. Analytical solutions to date are incomplete for a number of reasons that motivate further investigation. The solution obtained here for the propagator, which generates the time evolution of the system and embodies all the system dynamics, is compact and completely general. The parameter space that results in division by zero in previous treatments is explicitly defined and accommodated in the solution. Polynomial roots required for the solution are expressed in terms of a single real root obtained using simple functional forms. A simple graphical rendition of this root is developed that clarifies and characterizes its dependence on the physical parameters of the problem. As a result, the explicit time dependence of the system as a function of its physical parameters is immediately evident. Several intuitive models of system dynamics are also developed. In particular, the Bloch equation is separable in the proper coordinate system, written as the sum of a relaxation operator and either a null operator or a commuting rotation. The propagator thus drives either pure relaxation or relaxation followed by a rotation. The paper provides a basis for increased physical insight into the Bloch equation and its widespread applications.

Numerical Methods and Application for Optical Maxwell-Bloch Equations

Hua Zhang

An accurate and effective numerical method is presented to solve the Maxwell-Bloch equations,which describe the optical pulse propagation and interaction with homogeneously broadened two-level medium.The convergence and stability of this numerical method are also proved by comparing with the analytic solutions derived under special condition,and the method maintains its erroneous exponents and is applicable.Simulations of arbitrary conditions are discussed by employing this new method,and the evolutions of pulse and Bloch vectors for different detunings,relaxation times and initial input pulse power are analyzed.The established numerical method can be used to solve the Maxwell-Bloch equations and their corrections.

Analytical solutions and expressions of the propagator for Bloch equations

Heung‐Ryoul Noh

In this paper, we present analytical solutions to the Bloch equations. After solving the secular equation for the eigenvalues, derived from the Bloch equations, analytical solutions for the temporal evolution of the magnetization vector are obtained at arbitrary initial conditions. Subsequently, explicit analytical expressions of the propagator for the Bloch equations and optical Bloch equations are obtained. Compared to the results of existing analytical studies, the present results are more succinct and rigorous, and they can predict the behavior of the propagator in different regions of parameter spaces. The analytical solutions to the propagator can be directly used in composite laser-pulse spectroscopy.
