We point out that a typical two-electron distribution function in atoms and molecules often called the intracule depends sensitively on the electron-electron repulsion which leads to the so-called Coulomb correlation. The difference between…
We use variational quantum Monte Carlo to calculate the density-functional exchange-correlation hole n_{xc}, the exchange-correlation energy density e_{xc}, and the total exchange-correlation energy E_{xc}, of several electron gas systems…
We report precision measurements of the effective mass m* in high-quality bilayer graphene using the temperature dependence of the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations. In the density range of 0.7 x 10^12/cm^2 < n < 4.1 x 10^12 /cm^2, both the…

Tunneling and Coulomb drag are sensitive probes of spontaneous interlayer phase coherence in bilayer two-dimensional electron systems at total Landau level filling factor $\nu_T = 1$. We find that the phase boundary between the interlayer…
It is shown that the homogeneous state of the spatially separated electrons and holes in the coupled quantum wells (CQW) is instable if the layer charge density is smaller than the critical value specified by the parameters of the CQW. The…

We consider the massless Nelson model with two types of massive particles which we call atoms and electrons. The atoms interact with photons via an infrared regular form-factor and thus they are Wigner-type particles with sharp mass-shells.…
A number of methods are discussed which may serve for a treatment of electron correlations in solids. When the electron correlations are relatively weak like in semiconductors or a number of ionic crystals one may start from a…
We study the effects of long and short-range electron-electron interactions in a graphene bilayer. Using a variational wavefunction technique we show that in the presence of long-range Coulomb interactions the clean bilayer is always…
It has been shown that the presence of a metal plate near a double quantum well with spatially separated electron and hole layers may lead to a drastic reconstruction of the system state with the formation of stable charged complexes of…
We study the influence of quantizing perpendicular magnetic fields on the ground state of a bilayer with electron and hole fluids separated by an opaque tunnel barrier. In the absence of a field, the ground state at low carrier densities is…
Semiconductor valence holes are known to have heavy and light effective masses; but the consequence of this mass difference on Coulomb scatterings has been considered intractable and thus ignored up to now. The reason is that the…
Properties of the "electron gas" - in which conduction electrons interact by means of Coulomb forces but ionic potentials are neglected - change dramatically depending on the balance between kinetic energy and Coulomb repulsion. The limits…
The one-- and two-- particle densities of up to four interacting electrons with spin, confined within a quasi one--dimensional ``quantum dot'' are calculated by numerical diagonalization. The transition from a dense homogeneous charge…

It is known that homogeneous distribution of particles in Coulomb-like systems can be unstable, and spatially inhomogeneous structures can be formed. A simple method for describing such inhomogeneous systems and obtaining spacial…
