Strong coupling between light and matter is possible with a variety of organic materials. In contrast to the simpler inorganic case, organic materials often have a complicated spectrum, with vibrationally dressed electronic transitions.…
In the paper, we considered a molecular structure that consists of a molecular chain and an additional molecule ("donor"/"acceptor") that can inject (or remove) single excitation (vibron, electron, e.t.c.) onto the molecular chain. We…

Certain inflationary models can feature periods of preheating - an era preceding reheating during which parametric resonance triggers an exponential production of bosons. This non-perturbative process can have significant impact on the…
The structure, vibrational dynamics and thermodynamics of a chiral surface, Cu(532), has been calculated using a local approach and the harmonic approximation, with interatomic potentials based on the embedded atom method. The relaxation of…
