Global spectroscopy of the water monomer

Given the large energy required for its electronic excitation, the most important properties of the water molecule are governed by its ground potential energy surface (PES). Novel experiments are now able to probe this surface over a very extended energy r ...

Dynamic density functional theory versus kinetic theory of simple fluids

By combining methods of kinetic and density functional theory, we present a description of molecular fluids which accounts for their microscopic structure and thermodynamic properties as well as their hydrodynamic behavior. We focus on the evolution of the ...

The simulated 21 cm signal during the epoch of reionization: full modeling of the Ly-alpha pumping

Yves Revaz

The 21 cm emission of neutral hydrogen is the most promising probe of the epoch of reionization (EoR). In the next few years, the SKA pathfinders will provide statistical measurements of this signal, such as its power spectrum. Within one decade, SKA shoul ...

Second-harmonic response and temperature differential resistivity of noncollinear spin valves

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Julie Dubois

By means of a diffusive description of spin-dependent thermal and electrical transport using Pauli-spin matrices, we analyze the spin-dependent transport mechanisms that determine the voltage response of a metallic spin valve to an ac temperature oscillati ...

Scalar relativistic correction to nucleus-independent chemical shifts of coinage-metal compounds: How does the pseudopotential approximation perform?

The performance of commonly used pseudopotentials for calcns. of nucleus-independent chem. shifts (NICS) at the center of coinage-metal rings (M4Li2 (D4h), M = Cu, Ag, Au) was studied. The scalar relativity, which has a nonnegligible effect on NICS, is acc ...

Anomalies and inflow on D-branes and O-planes

Claudio Scrucca

We derive the general form of the anomaly for chiral spinors and self-dual antisymmetric tensors living on D-brane and O-plane intersections, using both path-integral and index theorem methods. We then show that the anomalous couplings to RR forms of D-bra ...

Electromagnetic field coupling to a line of finite length: theory and fast iterative solutions in frequency and time domains

Michel Ianoz

A system of integral-differential equations for evaluating currents and voltages induced by external electromagnetic fields on a finite-length horizontal wire above a perfectly conducting ground is derived under the thin wire approximation. Based on pertur ...

Application of Variational Techniques to Time-Dependent Perturbation-Theory

Alfredo Pasquarello

Linear-response functions and second-order transition amplitudes can be calculated exactly provided one effective state, the solution of an inhomogeneous Schrodinger equation, is known. We show how variational principles can be applied to the calculation o ...
