Standard approximations for the exchange-correlation functional are known to deviate from linear dependence of the energy on the electron and spin numbers (in -space). Violation of this flat-plane condition underlies the failure of all…
When polarized electrons traverse a region where the laser light is focused their polarization varies even if their energy and direction of motion are not changed. This effect is due to interference of the incoming electron wave and an…
