We present a fully Hamiltonian and computationally efficient scheme to include the electrostatic effects due to the classical environment in a Car-Parrinello mixed quantum mechanics/mol. mechanics (QM/MM) method. The polarization due to the MM atoms close ...
High-resolution angle-resolved (ARPES) photoemission in the quasi-one dimensional (1D) Peierls systems (TaSe4)(2)I and K0.3MoO3 reveals spectral features with clear 1D character. Their dispersion and polarization dependence is consistent with open Fermi su ...
In this paper we develop a Bethe approximation, based on the cluster variation method, which is apt to study lattice models of branched polymers. We show that the method is extremely accurate in cases where exact results are known as, for instance, in the ...
We discuss how to consistently perform effective Lagrangian computations in quantum gravity with branes in compact extra dimensions. A reparametrization invariant and infrared finite result is obtained in a non trivial way. It is crucial to properly accoun ...
The experimental setup for heat slug propagation at zero current and field in the QUench Experiment on Long Length (QUELL) is described and re-evaluated. Eight inductively heated and four resistively heated runs are considered and analyzed with the 1-fluid ...
We find using Monte Carlo simulations of the spin-1/2 2D square lattice nearest neighbour quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet that the high-energy peak locations at (pi, 0) and (pi/2, pi/2) differ by about 6%, (pi/2, pi/2) being the highest This is a deviat ...
We investigate the role of Coulomb correlation in an electron-hole gas that is strongly driven by an optical pump. Coulomb scattering is treated including Born diagrams and the light-dressing of the carriers is consistently included. When the pump is spect ...
We present a theoretical analysis of experimental photoluminescence spectra in highly excited semiconductor quantum wires. We show that the inclusion in the theory of electron-hole correlations strongly modifies the shape of emission spectra at any density ...
We extend to all orders in perturbation theory a method to calculate supersymmetry-breaking effects by analytic continuation of the renormalization group into superspace. A central observation is that the renormalized gauge coupling can be extended to a re ...
We performed high-resolution angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy studies of quasi-one-dimensional organic materials. For TTF-TCNQ, we observe dispersive spectral features corresponding to the donor and acceptor band. For the Bechgaard salts (TMTSF)(2 ...
