Correlations between electrons and the effective dimensionality are crucial factors that shape the properties of an interacting electron system. For example, the onsite Coulomb repulsion, U, may inhibit, or completely block the intersite…

We revisit the derivation of multipole contributions to the atom-wall interaction previously presented in [G. Lach et al., Phys. Rev. A 81, 052507 (2010)]. A careful reconsideration of the angular-momentum decomposition of the second-,…
We consider a model of electrons at zero temperature, with a repulsive interaction which is a function of the energy transfer. Such an interaction can arise from the combination of electron-electron repulsion at high energies and the weaker…
