In this paper we give a closed form expression for the $1/d$ corrections to the self-energy characterizing the correction function of a manifold in random media. This amounts to the first correction beyond the variational approximation. At…
When the QCD axion is absent in full theory, the strong $CP$ problem has to be explained by an additional mechanism, e.g., the left-right symmetry. Even though tree-level QCD $\bar\theta$ parameter is restricted by the mechanism, radiative…

In order to interpret precise measurements of molecular properties the finite nuclear mass corrections to the Born-Oppenheimer approximation have to be accounted for. It is shown that they can be obtained systematically in the perturbative…
Polarised neutron scattering is the method of choice to study magnetism in condensed matter. Polarised neutrons are typically very low in flux, and complex experimental configurations further reduce the count rate. Neutron polarisation…
