We analyse recently measured nonlinear photoemission spectra from Ag surfaces that reveal resonances whose energies do not scale with the applied photon energy but stay pinned to multiples of bulk plasmon energy $\hbar\omega_p$ above the…
The emission pattern from a classical dipole located above and oriented perpendicular to a metallic or dielectric half space is calculated for a dipole driven at constant amplitude. This is a problem considered originally by Sommerfeld and…
The energy-weighted sum rule for an electric dipole transition operator of a Schiff type differs from the Thomas-Reiche-Kuhn sum rule by several corrective terms which depend on the number of system components, ${\cal N}$. The deviations…
We revisit the connection between equation-of-motion coupled cluster (EOM-CC) and random phase approximation (RPA) explored recently by Berkelbach [J. Chem. Phys. 149, 041103 (2018)] and unify various methodological aspects of these diverse…
We examine first-order perturbative results based on jellium for the surface energy of slabs of simple metals, using various local pseudopotentials (Ashcroft, Heine-Abarenkov and evanescent core). The difference between the pseudopotential…
In a recent paper by Menzel et al. (Opt. Exp. 22, 9971 (2014)), its authors analyze the spectral red-shift effect of plasmonic resonances of metallic nano-antennas between the far-field and near-field regimes. Here, we demonstrate that…
In this article we calculate the energy of an impurity weakly coupled to a spin 1/2 fermionic superfluid. We show that the divergences resulting from three-body physics can only be cured using a proper description of the excitations of the…
For a small system the coupling to a reservoir causes energy shifts as well as transitions between the system's energy levels. We show for a general stationary situation that the energy shifts can essentially be reduced to the relaxation…
Radial collective flow and thermalization are studied in gold on gold collisions at 150, 250 and 400 A MeV bombarding energies with a relativistically covariant formulation of a QMD code. We find that radial flow and "thermal" energies…
Collective modes in Fermi liquids are usually regarded as dissipation channels that relax electronic excitations through Landau damping. Whether such modes can instead mediate the formation of correlated electronic states under…
We study the plasmonic properties of arrays of atomic chains which comprise noble (Cu, Ag, and Au) and transition (Pd, Pt) metal atoms using time-dependent density-functional theory. We show that the response to the electromagnetic…
We introduce a homogenization approach to characterize the dynamical response of a generic dispersive spacetime crystal in the long-wavelength limit. The theory is applied to dispersive spacetime platforms with a travelling-wave modulation.…
In this paper, we have considered the mechanical stability of a jellium system in the presence of spin degrees of freedom and have generalized the stabilized jellium model, introduced by J. P. Perdew, H. Q. Tran, and E. D. Smith [Phys. Rev.…
Transverse plasma polaritons and longitudinal plasmons describe the propagation of light-matter modes in an isotropic metal. However, in a layered metal the anisotropy of the bare electromagnetic response mixes the longitudinal and…
Theoretical description of oscillations of electron liquid in large metallic nanospheres (with radius of few tens nm) is formulated within random-phase-approximation semiclassical scheme. Spectrum of plasmons is determined including both…
Decades of work on beam deformation on reflection, and especially on lateral shifts, have spread the idea that a reflected beam is larger than the incident beam. However, when the right conditions are met, a beam reflected by a multilayered…
Collective modes in two-dimensional electron fluids show an interesting response to a background carrier flow. Surface plasmons propagating on top of a flowing Fermi liquid acquire a non-reciprocal character manifest in a $\pm k$ asymmetry…

Reflection, propagation and energy analysis are crucially important in designing structures, especially plates. A thick plate is considered based on first order shear deformation theory. Wave Propagation Method (WPM) is employed to exactly…
