We review the present status of polarized structure functions measured in deep-inelastic scattering. We discuss the x and Q^2 dependence of the structure function g_1, and how it can be used to test perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order…

It is well-known that many three-dimensional chiral material models become non-chiral when reduced to two dimensions. Chiral properties of the two-dimensional model can then be restored by adding appropriate two-dimensional chiral terms. In…
Electronic structure methods for accurate calculation of molecular properties have a high cost that grows steeply with the problem size, therefore, it is helpful to have the underlying atomic basis functions that are less in number but of…
