We introduce a generalization (gLDA) of the traditional Local Density Approximation (LDA) within density functional theory. The gLDA uses both the one-electron Seitz radius $\rs$ and a two-electron hole curvature parameter $\eta$ at each…
We consider theoretically the energy loss of electrons scattered to high angles when assuming that the primary beam can be limited to a single atom. We discuss the possibility of identifying the isotopes of light elements and of extracting…
We obtain the conductance of a system of electrons connected to leads, within time-dependent density-functional theory, using a direct relation between the conductance and the density response function. Corrections to the non-interacting…
We consider the Lorentz gas in a distribution of scatterers which microscopically converges to a periodic distribution, and prove that the Lorentz gas in the low density limit satisfies a linear Boltzmann equation. This is in contrast with…

Electron mobility, energy spectra and intrinsic carrier concentrations in the n-type Hg0.32Cd0.68Te / Hg1-xCdxTe / Hg0.32Cd0.68Te quantum well (QW) in semi-metallic state are numerically modeled. Energy spectra and wave functions were…
We have developed a scanning photoluminescence technique that can directly map out the local two-dimensional electron density with a relative accuracy of $\sim2.2\times10^8$ cm$^{-2}$. The validity of this approach is confirmed by the…
I review the quantum theory of the electron moving in a random environment. First, the quantum mechanics of individual particles scattered on a random potential is discussed. The quantum-mechanical description is extended to many-body…
We study the electron scatter from the freely movable spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particle in the presence of a linearly polarized laser field in the first Born approximation. The dressed state of electrons is described by a time-dependent wave…
It has been known since Lanford [19] that the dynamics of a hard sphere gas is described in the low density limit by the Boltzmann equation, at least for short times. The classical strategy of proof fails for longer times, even close to…

A simple kinematical argument suggests that the classical approximation may be inadequate to describe the evolution of a system with an anisotropic particle distribution. In order to verify this quantitatively, we study the Boltzmann…
The evolution of the electron density during electron cloud formation can be reproduced using a bunch-to-bunch iterative map formalism. The reliability of this formalism has been proved for RHIC [1] and LHC [2]. The linear coefficient has a…
