Investigation of Steady-State Carrier Distribution in CNT Porins in Neuronal ...Kyle Poe
In this work, the carrier distribution of a carbon nanotube inserted into the spinal ganglion neuronal membrane is examined. After primary characterization based on previous work, the nanotube is approximated as a one-dimensional system, and the Poisson and Schrödinger equations are solved using an iterative finite-difference scheme. It was found that carriers aggregate near the center of the tube, with a negative carrier density of ⟨ρn⟩ = 7.89 × 10^13 cm−3 and positive carrier density of ⟨ρp⟩ = 3.85 × 10^13 cm−3. In future work, the erratic behavior of convergence will be investigated.
This document provides an introduction to quantum Monte Carlo methods. It discusses using Monte Carlo integration to evaluate multi-dimensional integrals that arise in quantum mechanical problems. Variational Monte Carlo is introduced as using a trial wavefunction to sample configuration space and estimate observables, like the energy. The Metropolis algorithm is described as a way to generate Markov chains that sample a given probability distribution. This allows using Monte Carlo methods to solve the electronic structure problem by approximating many-body wavefunctions and integrals over configuration space.
This document reviews research on the convergence of perturbation series in quantum field theory. It discusses Dyson's argument that perturbation series in quantum electrodynamics (QED) have zero radius of convergence due to vacuum instability when the coupling constant is negative. Large-order estimates show that perturbation series coefficients grow factorially fast in quantum mechanics and field theories. Finally, it describes the method of Borel summation, which may allow extracting the exact physical quantity from a divergent perturbation series through a unique mapping.

Resolving the dissociation catastrophe in fluctuating-charge modelsJiahao Chen
The document discusses issues that arise when using fluctuating charge models to describe chemical systems. It summarizes the concept of fluctuating charges based on electronegativity equalization. However, this leads to an unphysical "dissociation catastrophe" where charges do not decay to zero at infinite separation. The document proposes fixing this by introducing distance-dependent electronegativity or charge transfer variables between atoms to attenuate long-range charge transfer. It also discusses the topological relationship between charge transfer variables and atomic charges to convert between representations.
Spectroscopic ellipsometry is a technique for investigating the optical properties and electrodynamics of materials. It has several advantages over other optical techniques:
1) It provides an exact numerical inversion with no need for Kramers-Kronig transformations, allowing consistency checks.
2) Measurements are non-invasive and highly reproducible as they do not require reference samples.
3) It is very sensitive to thin film properties due to its ability to measure at oblique angles of incidence.
Ellipsometry has been used to study phenomena like superconductivity in cuprates and pnictides by measuring changes in spectral weight, and collective charge ordering in oxide superlattices.
Okay, let's break this down step-by-step:
* River flows southeast at 10 km/hr
* Let's define southeast as 45° from the east
* So the river's velocity is 10 cos(45°)ax + 10 sin(45°)ay = 7.07ax + 7.07ay
* Boat moves in the direction of the river at vB
* Man walks on deck at 2 km/hr perpendicular to the boat
* So the man's velocity is 2ay
* To find the total velocity, we add the velocities:
Total velocity = River velocity + Boat velocity + Man's velocity
= 7.07ax + 7.07ay + vB + 2
This document summarizes research on quantum chaos, including the principle of uniform semiclassical condensation of Wigner functions, spectral statistics in mixed systems, and dynamical localization of chaotic eigenstates. It discusses how in the semiclassical limit, Wigner functions condense uniformly on classical invariant components. For mixed systems, the spectrum can be seen as a superposition of regular and chaotic level sequences. Localization effects can be observed if the Heisenberg time is shorter than the classical diffusion time. The document presents an analytical formula called BRB that describes the transition between Poisson and random matrix statistics. An example is given of applying this to analyze the level spacing distribution for a billiard system.
My introduction to electron correlation is based on multideterminant methods. I introduce the electron-electron cusp condition, configuration interaction, complete active space self consistent field (CASSCF), and just a little information about perturbation theories.

This document provides an outline for a lecture on complex dynamics in Hamiltonian systems. Some key points:
1) Simple periodic orbits called nonlinear normal modes exist and can destabilize, leading to weak or strong chaos depending on their properties.
2) Dynamical indicators like Lyapunov exponents and the Generalized Alignment Index (GALI) can identify regions of order and chaos. The Lyapunov spectrum indicates when orbits explore the same chaotic region.
3) GALI rapidly detects chaos as deviation vectors become aligned, and identifies quasiperiodic motion by vectors remaining independent. It distinguishes weak and strong chaos based on exponential decay rates.
1) The document summarizes research on the ground state of strongly coupled quark matter with a finite isospin chemical potential.

The Effective Fragment Molecular Orbital Methodcsteinmann
The document describes the Effective Fragment Molecular Orbital (EFMO) method, which combines the Fragment Molecular Orbital (FMO) method with the Effective Fragment Potential (EFP) method. EFMO treats large systems by dividing them into fragments and using quantum mechanics (QM) to calculate the gas phase energies of each fragment and effective fragment potentials (EFP) to describe many-body interactions between fragments. This allows EFMO to achieve a balance between the accuracy of QM methods and the efficiency of forcefield methods for treating large molecular systems.

3) Holographically, the instantons correspond to an instability of the dual CFT effective potential for large values of the deformation parameter α, driving the theory from marginal to total instability. The tunneling probability depends exponentially on α.

Widom and Larsen ULM Neutron Catalyzed LENRs on Metallic Hydride Surfaces-EPJ...Lewis Larsen
This document discusses ultra low momentum neutron catalyzed nuclear reactions on metallic hydride surfaces. Weak interaction catalysis initially occurs when neutrons (along with neutrinos) are produced from protons that capture "heavy" electrons. Surface electron masses are shifted upwards by localized condensed matter electromagnetic fields. Condensed matter quantum electrodynamic processes may also shift the densities of final states, allowing an appreciable production of extremely low momentum neutrons, which are thereby efficiently absorbed by nearby nuclei. No Coulomb barriers exist for the weak interaction neutron production or other resulting catalytic processes.

It shows that QCD can be written as a Gaussian theory for gluon fields, with a trivial infrared fixed point. This leads to a Yukawa interaction between quarks and an effective scalar field, along with a nonlocal four-quark interaction. Truncating to the lowest scalar excitation reproduces the NJL model, with couplings determined from the gluon propagator.
The document discusses the effective mass approximation in quantum mechanics. It begins by defining the effective mass as inversely proportional to the curvature of energy bands. Having a effective mass allows electrons in crystals to be treated similarly to classical particles, with the crystal forces and quantum properties accounted for in the mass. The effective mass can be a tensor and depends on the crystal direction. It then discusses measuring the effective mass using cyclotron resonance and how it varies by crystallographic direction. In general, the effective mass incorporates the quantum mechanical behavior of electrons in crystals to allow a classical particle treatment.

This document summarizes a research article about nonlinear electrodynamics and its effects on the polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation. It introduces nonlinear electrodynamics models as alternatives to Maxwell's electrodynamics. The document then discusses how nonlinear electrodynamics is minimally coupled to gravity and derives the relevant equations of motion. It focuses on analyzing the Pagels-Tomboulis nonlinear electrodynamics Lagrangian and computing the polarization angle of photons propagating in an expanding universe with planar symmetry. Constraints on the nonlinear electrodynamics parameter are obtained using data on cosmic magnetic field strengths and the rotation of CMB polarization spectra measured by experiments.
Alexei Starobinsky - Inflation: the present statusSEENET-MTP
This document summarizes a presentation on inflation and the present status of inflationary cosmology. It discusses the key epochs in the early universe, including inflation, and how inflation solved issues with prior models. Observational evidence for inflation is presented, including measurements of the primordial power spectrum and constraints on the tensor-to-scalar ratio. Simple single-field inflation models are shown to match observations. The document also discusses the generation of primordial perturbations from quantum fluctuations during inflation and how this provides the seeds for structure formation.
1) The document explains Johann Balmer's empirical formula for the emission spectrum of hydrogen and how it relates the energies of emitted photons to integer values.
2) It then discusses early quantum models like the "electron in a box" model which showed energy must be quantized.
3) Finally, it describes Erwin Schrödinger's wave equation theory of quantum mechanics which successfully explained the quantization of energy levels in hydrogen and allowed prediction of atomic emission spectra.
UCSD NANO 266 Quantum Mechanical Modelling of Materials and Nanostructures is a graduate class that provides students with a highly practical introduction to the application of first principles quantum mechanical simulations to model, understand and predict the properties of materials and nano-structures. The syllabus includes: a brief introduction to quantum mechanics and the Hartree-Fock and density functional theory (DFT) formulations; practical simulation considerations such as convergence, selection of the appropriate functional and parameters; interpretation of the results from simulations, including the limits of accuracy of each method. Several lab sessions provide students with hands-on experience in the conduct of simulations. A key aspect of the course is in the use of programming to facilitate calculations and analysis.
This document summarizes a talk on the variation of fundamental constants over time. It discusses several methods for measuring potential variations, including analyses of the cosmic microwave background, quasar absorption spectra, radioactive decay rates from the natural nuclear reactor at Oklo, and comparisons of atomic clock rates. Measurements from big bang nucleosynthesis and quasar data suggest the fine structure constant may have been smaller in the early universe, varying on the order of 10^-15 per year. However, results are not conclusive and depend on theoretical models. Ongoing work using improved atomic clocks aims to more precisely measure any drift of fundamental constants like the fine structure constant and quark-mass ratios over time.
The document discusses the structure of atoms and the development of atomic models. It summarizes:
1) The subatomic particles that make up atoms - electrons, protons, and neutrons - along with their relative charges and masses.
2) Early experiments that led to the discovery of electrons and the Thomson and Rutherford atomic models.
3) Quantum numbers like atomic number and mass number that are used to describe atoms.
4) Developments in quantum theory that resulted in Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom and explanation of atomic spectra through quantized energy levels.
The document summarizes the key results of a research paper on representation rings of cyclic groups over algebraically closed fields.

It shows that for tensor products of Jordan blocks of size less than or equal to p, over a field of characteristic p, the Jordan form is a direct sum of indecomposable representations of the cyclic group of order p. Explicit formulas for various tensor product cases are provided, such as J2 ⊗ Jn and Jm ⊗ Jp for p ≥ m. Applications to arithmetic geometry, K-theory, cryptography and

2) Using the BdG equation and Nambu spinor formalism, analytic expressions are obtained for the subgap Shiba states induced by the magnetic impurity. The Shiba state energies are given by E0 = ∆(1 - α2)/(1 + α2), where α is the dimensionless impurity strength.
3) The BdG spinor eigenstates for the Shiba states are derived. They consist of spin-up electrons and spin-down holes for one state, and spin
This document presents two variations on the periscope theorem in geometry optics. It summarizes:
1) For a "spherical periscope" system of two mirrors that reflects rays emanating from a point back to that point, the vector field relating the incoming and outgoing ray directions is projectively gradient.
2) For a "reversed periscope" system reflecting upward rays downward, the local diffeomorphism relating the ray directions and the function describing the second mirror can be expressed in terms of the function for the first mirror.
3) In both cases, the document provides theorems characterizing the relationships between the mirror surfaces and ray mappings in terms of gradients and differential equations.
The document discusses the structure of atoms, including:
1) Solving the Schrodinger equation for hydrogen-like atoms to determine allowed energies and wavefunctions.
2) The quantization of energy levels, orbital angular momentum, and other properties for hydrogen-like atoms.
3) How the concepts for hydrogen-like atoms can be applied to describe multi-electron atoms and molecules using approximations like the orbital model.
This document discusses quantum theory and the electronic structure of atoms. It begins by introducing properties of waves and electromagnetic radiation. It then covers early discoveries and models in atomic structure, including Planck's quantization of energy, Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect using photons, Bohr's model of electron orbits, de Broglie's proposal that electrons exhibit wave-particle duality, and Schrodinger's wave equation describing electron probability distributions. The document concludes by discussing how the Schrodinger equation is used to determine electron configurations and orbital diagrams for atoms.
Rutherford's model of the atom proposed that:
1. Most alpha particles passed through the atom undeflected, indicating most of the atom is empty space.
2. Some alpha particles were deflected, indicating a small, positively charged nucleus at the center of the atom.
3. Very few alpha particles were reflected backwards, showing the nucleus occupies an extremely small volume compared to the atom.
This model explained experimental observations of alpha particle scattering and established the basics of atomic structure, including the small, dense nucleus at the center of the atom.
1. Bohr's model of the atom describes electrons orbiting the nucleus in fixed, quantized energy levels.
2. Light is emitted when an electron moves from a higher to lower energy level, with frequency determined by Planck's equation.
3. Hydrogen emits a line spectrum due to its quantized energy levels. The Rydberg equation calculates wavelengths from transitions between levels in Lyman, Balmer, Paschen, Brackett, and Pfund series.

Abstract. Negative index materials (NIMs) are artificially materials which have attracted lot of interest due to their
remarkable properties. In this work, we discuss some of the properties of NIMs and obtained travelling wave solutions for
pulse propagation in NIMs in the presence of external source. The reported solutions are necessarily of the fractional-type
containing trigonometric and hyperbolic functions.

INTRODUCTION NIMs, the group and phase velocities always points in
opposite direction.
Negative index materials (NIMs) are designed to have
exotic and unique properties that cannot be obtained with
naturally occurring materials and thus offer entirely new
prospects for manipulating light [1]. In 1967, Veselago
[2] first considered the case of a medium that had permit-
tivity ε < 0 and permeability µ < 0 at a given frequency
and concluded that the medium should then be consid-
ered to have a negative refractive index. In the last few FIGURE 1. Right handed and left handed material

propagation is new and exciting field of research. M.
Scalora et al. [4] was the first who derived generalized
nonlinear Schrödinger equation (GNLSE) for pulse prop-
agation in NIMs. Various research groups have studied
GNLSE in different contexts and obtained solitary wave
solutions[5, 6]. In this paper we considered GNLSE with
a source term and obtained solitary wave and periodic
solutions. FIGURE 2. Negative refraction and reversed Doppler effect
