We study the motion of a cold atom in a frequency-modulated standing laser wave. If the detuning between the atomic electronic transition and the field is large, the atom moves in a modulated optical potential demonstrating known classical…
A remarkable feature of the Landau-Zener transition is insensitivity of the survival probability to the decay rate, of the excited state. Namely, the probability for a particle, which is initially in the ground state, to remain in the same…
We use Landau's theory of a normal Fermi liquid to derive expressions for the static response of a system with a general tensor interaction that conserves the total spin and the total angular momentum of the quasiparticle-quasihole pair.…
[Background] $\beta$-decay half-life is sensitive to the shell structure near the Fermi levels. Nuclear deformation thus impacts the $\beta$-decay properties. [Purpose] A first-order shape-phase transition in neutron-rich Zr isotopes is…
Evaluated $2\beta^{-}(2\nu)$ half-lives and their systematics were reexamined in the framework of a phenomenological approach. Decay rate dependence on nuclear deformation, decay energy, shape coexistence, and forbidden transitions was…
We discuss the strong interaction regime of the nonlinear Landau-Zener problem coming up at coherent photo- and magneto-association of ultracold atoms. We apply a variational approach to an exact third-order nonlinear differential equation…
Motivated by recent cold atom experiments in optical lattices, we consider a lattice version of the Landau-Zener problem. Every single site is described by a Landau-Zener problem, but due to particle tunnelling between neighboring lattice…
Nuclear pairing interaction plays a crucial role in both macroscopic-microscopic and fully macroscopic descriptions of nuclei. In the present study we discuss different pairing interactions (monopole and delta pairing forces) and the…
The Landau distribution as well as its first and second momenta are well suited for describing the energy loss of charged particles traversing a thin layer of matter. At present, just rational approximations and asymptotic expressions for…
The distorted one-body mixed density matrix, which is the basic nuclear quantity appearing in the definition of the cross section for the semi-inclusive A(e,e'p)X processes, is calculated within a linked-cluster expansion based upon…
We demonstrate that hot superheavy nuclei do not retain spherical shapes, as traditionally assumed, but instead equilibrate in deformed, often oblate or triaxial, configurations at finite excitation energy. This behavior arises from a…
Landau-Zener (LZ) transitions of a two-level system (e. g., electronic spin in molecular magnets) coupled to one or many environmental spins (e. g., nuclear spins) are studied. For rather general interactions the LZ problem is reduced to…
In a renormalizable theory the survival probability of an unstable quantum state features divergences as a consequence of the rapid growth of the density of states with energy. Introducing a high energy cutoff $\Lambda$, the transient…
Bulk and decay properties, including deformation energy curves, charge mean square radii, Gamow-Teller (GT) strength distributions, and beta-decay half-lives, are studied in neutron-deficient even-even and odd-A Hg and Pt isotopes. The…
We study the transitions between neighboring energy levels in a quasi-one-dimensional semiconductor quantum dot with two interacting electrons in it, when it is subject to a linearly time-dependent electric field. We analyze the…

The ground-state properties of neutron-rich nuclear clusters in the inner crust of neutron stars are investigated within the Wigner-Seitz approximation using a relativistic mean-field framework. The radial Dirac equations are solved with an…
We examine the problem of finite Fermi systems having a degenerate single-particle spectrum and show that the Landau approach, applied to such a system, admits the possibility of merging single-particle levels. It is demonstrated that the…
