Methods for estimating the correlation energy of molecules and other electronic systems are discussed based on the assumption that the correlation energy can be partitioned between atomic regions. In one method, the electron density is…

The study of two-particle azimuthal correlations at high transverse momentum has become an important tool to investigate the interaction of hard partons with the medium formed in high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions. At SPS energies,…
We propose a cosmological model in which the expansion of the universe is driven by a Hawking-like influx of energy across the cosmological horizon, rather than from a fixed cosmological constant. In place of a cosmological constant, we…
We show that the time-dependence of correlation functions in an extended quantum system in d dimensions, which is prepared in the ground state of some hamiltonian and then evolves without dissipation according to some other hamiltonian, may…

We study the coupled rotational diffusion in a two-particle chain on the basis of a Smoluchowski equation and calculate time-correlation functions that are measurable in an experiment. This might be used to explore hydrodynamic interactions…
We consider two-particle correlations, which appear in relativistic nuclear collisions due to the quantum statistics of identical particles, in the frame of two formalisms: wave-function and current. The first one is based on solution of…
In heavy ion collisions resonances can create strong non-Gaussian effects in the 2-pion correlation data. Hence, the commonly used Gaussian fit parameters do not fully characterize these correlators. We suggest a different set of HBT…
