In this article and beginning with the Dirac solution to the Hydrogen atom in its ground state, the exact results corresponding to the expectation value of the distance of the electron to the proton and the maximum probability distance are…
The optical conductivity of single crystals of Na_xCoO_2 for $x$ = 0.57 is first reported between 295 and 30 K. In the far infrared, an "anomalous Drude" analysis leads to a carrier effective mass of 5 electron masses. That this high value…
It is shown that, in the self-consistent quantum statistical Hartree-Fock approximation, the number of electronic states localized on one nucleus is finite. This result is obtained on the basis of the general electron-nuclear model of…
Near Earth Asteroids are of great interest to the scientific community due to their proximity to Earth, making them both potential hazards and possible targets for future missions, as they are relatively easy to reach by spacecraft. A…
A perfect cuboid, popularly known as a perfect Euler brick/a perfect box, is a cuboid having integer side lengths, integer face diagonals and an integer space diagonal. Euler provided an example where only the body diagonal became deficient…
We show that ten(one) years operation of the ultimate DECIGO (DECihertz Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory) can determine the cosmic equation of the state with such accuracy that 0.06%(3%), 0.08%(4%) and 0.06%(3%) for $\Omega_m$,…
Real and imaginary part of the limit 2N->infinity of the integral int_{x=1..2N} exp(i*pi*x)*x^(1/x) dx are evaluated to 20 digits with brute force methods after multiple partial integration, or combining a standard Simpson integration over…
Recently reported computations have been extended to give ten more decimals of accuracy in the ground state energy of the Schrodinger equation for the idealized Helium atom. With the F basis - Hylleraas coordinates with negative powers and…
The $X(3872)$, whose mass coincides with the $D^0\bar D^{*0}$ threshold, is the most extended hadron object. Since its discovery in 2003, debates have never stopped regarding its internal structure. We propose a new object, the $X$ atom,…
We discuss different sets of defining constants, fixed values of which are considered in connection with the transition to new definitions of four SI units (the kilogram, the mole, the ampere, and the kelvin). The notion of constant's order…
Within the last 10 years, strong, narrow Na I absorption has appeared at v_sun ~ -38 km/s toward the halo star HD 219188; that absorption has continued to strengthen, by a factor 2-3, over the past three years. The line of sight appears to…
Quadratic-response theory is shown to provide a conceptually simple but accurate approximation for the self-consistent one-electron potential of semiconductor nanostructures. Numerical examples are presented for GaAs/AlAs and InGaAs/InP…
The increasing deformation in atomic nuclei leads to the change of the classical magic numbers (2,8,20,28,50,82..) which dictate the arrangement of nucleons in complete shells. The magic numbers of the three-dimensional harmonic oscillator…
We report a 0.08 % measurement of the bound neutron scattering length of $^4$He using neutron interferometry. The result is $b = (3.0982 \pm 0.0021 \mbox{ [stat]} \pm 0.0014 \mbox{ [sys]}) \mbox{ fm}$. The corresponding free atomic…
The minimal volume of a closed manifold $M$ is the infimum of the volume of $(M,g)$ over all metrics $g$ with sectional curvature between $-1$ and $1$. We introduce a variant called the essential minimal volume, $\mathrm{ess-Minvol}(M)$,…
The Euler's form of odd perfect numbers, if any, is $n=\pi^{\alpha}N^2$, where $\pi$ is prime, $(\pi,N)=1$ and $\pi\equiv \alpha \equiv 1 \pmod{4}$. Dris conjecture states that $N>\pi^{\alpha}$. We find that $N^2>\frac{1}{2}\pi^{\gamma}$,…
