The synthetic emission spectra and opacity of high-density, high-temperature germanium (Z=32) plasma from super-transition-array (STA) calculations are presented. The viability of the STA model, which is based on a statistical…

We apply the Dynamical Mean Field Theory to calculate the low-density limit of the optical conductivity in the Holstein model. This non perturbative treatment allows to span continuously from the weak-coupling quasi-free electron behaviour…

Sudden ionisation of a relatively large molecule can initiate a correlation-driven process dubbed charge migration, where the electron density distribution is expected to rapidly change. Capturing this few-femtosecond/attosecond charge…

Ion transport across solid solid interfaces is often slower than through the bulk of a material, impeding the charge and discharge rate of batteries. Designing highly conductive interfaces is challenging due to the need to probe ion…

We are just starting to understand the physical processes driving the dramatic change in cosmic star-formation rate between $z\sim 2$ and the present day. A quantity directly linked to star formation is the molecular gas density, which…

We use bootstrapping to estimate the bias of concentration estimates on N-body dark matter halos as a function of particle number. We find that algorithms based on the maximum radial velocity and radial particle binning tend to overestimate…
