Near-critical thermodynamics in the hard-sphere (1,1) electrolyte is well described, at a classical level, by Debye-Hueckel (DH) theory with (+,-) ion pairing and dipolar-pair-ionic-fluid coupling. But DH-based theories do not address…

Electron density and electron momentum density, while independently tractable experimentally, bear no direct connection without going through the many-electron wave function. However, invoking a variant of the constrained-search formulation…

We investigate the new type of excitations on the surface of liquid helium. These excitations, called surfons, appear because helium atoms have discrete energy level at the liquid surface, being attracted to the surface by the van der Waals…
