We make a gradient correction to a new local density approximation form of positron-electron correlation. Then the positron lifetimes and affinities are probed by using these two approximation forms based on three electronic-structure…
Based on the recently introduced homogenization theory developed in [Phys. Rev. B 84, 075153 (2011)], we propose a generalized retrieval method that allows extracting physically meaningful bulk effective parameters from conventional…
We discuss the single-quantum positron annihilation with a bound electron in the near threshold region. The angular distribution and the total cross section are considered. We obtain a simple analytical expression for the Coulomb potential…
We propose a new method to measure the absolute photon absorption cross section of neutral molecules in a molecular beam. It is independent of our knowledge of the particle beam density, nor does it rely on photo-induced fragmentation or…
Recognizing an object's material can inform a robot on the object's fragility or appropriate use. To estimate an object's material during manipulation, many prior works have explored the use of haptic sensing. In this paper, we explore a…
We show that the cosmic-ray positron excess measured by PAMELA and AMS could be induced by Dark Matter annihilations in a local over-density. In such a context leptophilic DM is not needed and good fits to positron data, in agreement with…
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is a widely used technique for chemical analysis of solid surfaces, sensitive to the chemical environments of atoms via core-level binding energy shifts. While modern instruments allow experimental…
AMS-02 provided the unprecedented statistics in the measurement of the positron fraction from cosmic rays. That may offer a unique opportunity to distinguish the positron spectrum coming from various dark matter (DM) annihilation channels,…
While established semiconductor measurement techniques such as four-point probe or capacitance-voltage measurements require a physical contact to the material, terahertz spectroscopy is completely contact-free. Its capability to measure the…
Measurable spectra are theoretically very often derived from complicated many-body Green's functions. In this way, one calculates much more information than actually needed. Here we present an in principle exact approach to construct…
The influence of detector setup configuration and scintillator material choice on spectrum quality in Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS) is fundamentally acknowledged primarily by empirical observation. However, this study…
A theoretical model of the influence of detection bandwidth properties on observed line shapes in laser absorption spectroscopy is described. The model predicts artificial frequency shifts, extra broadenings and line asymmetries which must…
Recently PAMELA released their first results on the positron and antiproton ratios. Stimulated by the new data, we studied the cosmic ray propagation models and calculated the secondary positron and antiproton spectra. The low energy…
We introduce a framework for subspace methods which approximate the spectra of self-adjoint, unbounded operators in a local region. Using the projection-valued measure, we derive integrated spectral inequalities that also apply to unbounded…
We developed an implicit Particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo model in two-dimensional and axisymmetric geometry for the simulations of the radio-frequency discharges, by introducing several numerical schemes which include variable weights,…
The PADME experiment at the DA$\Phi$NE Beam-Test Facility (BTF) of the INFN Laboratory of Frascati is designed to search for invisible decays of dark sector particles produced in electron-positron annihilation events with a positron beam…
We present density response estimators for Monte Carlo simulations that are based on a reweighting procedure, where the samples of an unperturbed system are used to estimate the properties of a system perturbed by an external harmonic…
Properties that are necessarily formulated within pure (symmetric) expectation values are difficult to calculate for projector quantum Monte Carlo approaches, but are critical in order to compute many of the important observable properties…
We present measurements and theoretical modeling demonstrating the capability of Doppler Broadened annihilation gamma Spectroscopy (DBS) to provide element-specific information from the topmost atomic layer of surfaces that are either clean…
We present the results of processing of Age-Momentum Correlation (AMOC) spectra that were measured for glycerol by the Gamma-induced positron spectroscopy (GiPS) facility. Our research has shown that the shape of experimental s(t) curve…
