Low-energy structures are found on the potential energy surfaces of the neutral, cationic, and anionic gold clusters Au_{5 \leq n \leq 8}^Z (Z = 0, \pm) and on the neutral potential energy surface of Au_9. These structures provide insights…
Level densities have been extracted from primary gamma spectra for 56,57-Fe and 96,97-Mo nuclei using (3-He,alpha gamma) and (3-He,3-He') reactions on 57-Fe and 97-Mo targets. The level density curves reveal step structures above the…
Using many-body perturbation theory and coupled-cluster theory, we calculate the ground-state energy of He-4 and O-16. We perform these calculations using a no-core G-matrix interaction derived from a realistic nucleon-nucleon potential.…
A multi-channel algebraic scattering (MCAS) method has been used to solve coupled sets of Lippmann-Schwinger equations for $\alpha$+nucleus systems to find spectra of the compound systems. Low energy spectra for ${}^{12}$C, ${}^{16}$O, and…
Photodisintegration and radiative capture in the N2H, N3H, N3He, 2H2H, 2H3He, 2H4He, 3He3H, 4He3H, and 4He3He channels are studied on the basis of the corresponding two-cluster potential models. The astrophysical S factors at low energies…
In semiconductor manufacturing, contamination due to particulates significantly decreases the yield and quality of device fabrication, therefore increasing the cost of production. Dust particle clouds can be found in almost all plasma…
The relations between the luminosities $M_{V}$, the metallicities $[Fe/H]$, the Galactocentric radii $R$, and the central concentration indices $c$ of Galactic globular clusters are discussed. It is found that the most luminous clusters…
Using a Monte Carlo minimization approach we report the global minima for metal clusters modelled by the Sutton-Chen family of potentials with N<81, where N is the number of atoms. The resulting structures are discussed in the light of both…
The interaction of electrically charged particles in a dilute gas of point--like magnetic dipoles is studied. We show that the interaction potential at small distances has a linear piece due to overlap of the dipole clouds gathered near…
We study indented spherical colloids, interacting via depletion forces. These systems exhibit liquid-vapor phase transitions whose properties are determined by a combination of strong "lock-and-key" bonds and weaker non-specific…
We discuss how correlations among momenta of the decay products may yield information about the CP-parity of the Higgs particle. These are correlations of decay planes defined by the momenta of pairs of particles as well as correlations…
The light weakly-bound nucleus $^7$Li is studied within a dicluster $\alpha+t$ picture. Different observables obtained within our simple model are compared with previous calculations and experiments showing good agreement. In particular we…
We investigate the behaviour of a system of particles with the different character of interaction. The approach makes it possible to describe systems of interacting particles by statistical methods taking into account a spatial…
We study potential biases of popular cluster quality metrics, such as conductance or modularity. We propose a method that uses both stochastic and preferential attachment block models construction to generate networks with preset community…
We investigate the phase coherence time of weakly interacting tunneling systems (TSs). We show that all neighbors of a given TS form together with the TS of interest an entangled cluster as long as the linewidth of the excitation of the…
We study a system of two symmetrical capacitively coupled quantum dots, each coupled to its own metallic lead, focusing on its evolution as a function of the gate voltage applied to each dot. Using the numerical renormalization group and…
Given a set of variables and the correlations among them, we develop a method for finding clustering among the variables. The method takes advantage of information implicit in higher-order (not just pairwise) correlations. The idea is to…
The helix structure of the Lund string, first derived from studies devoted to the emission of soft gluons at the end of the parton cascade, may be at the origin of certain characteristic discrepancies observed in the low transverse momentum…
We briefly review some of the lower-energy constraints to the perturbative behaviour of the strong coupling $\alpha_s$, with some emphasis on the determination coming from the energy between two static sources calculated on the lattice.
We use energy minimization principles to predict the structure of a decagonal quasicrystal - d(AlCoNi) - in the Cobalt-rich phase. Monte Carlo methods are then used to explore configurations while relaxation and molecular dynamics are used…
