The static dipole polarisability of noble gas atoms confined by impenetrable spheres and spherical shells is studied using the B-spline random phase with exchange approximation. The general trend in dipole polarisabilities across the noble…
High-performance osmotic energy conversion requires both large ionic throughput and high ionic selectivity, which can be significantly promoted by exterior surface charges simultaneously, especially for short nanopores. Here, we investigate…
The atmospheres of planets (including Earth) and the outer layers of stars have often been treated in radiative transfer as plane-parallel media, instead of spherical shells, which can lead to inaccuracy, e.g. limb darkening. We give an…
A novel hybrid method based on Mie theory and the Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA) was developed to study the microscopic parameters governing the optical response of tunable photonic crystals (PC). The method is based on a two-step…
In this paper, we establish the full-wave electromagnetic scattering theory to study the electromagnetic scattering from infinitely long cylinders with radially anisotropic coatings. We show that the total effective scattering width can be…
Absorption and scattering properties of nanoparticles immersed in an absorbing medium are essential in understanding the overall properties of composites and in designing materials with expected functionalities. In this paper, we establish…
It is shown that polarization transfer measurements $(\vec{e},e'\vec{p})$ on a specific target nucleus can provide constraints on the ratio of the in-medium electric to magnetic form factor. Thereby one exploits the fact that proton…
A comment on the recently published article (PRL 79, 3166 (1997)) is given. The issue is if there is a unique self-consistent way in determining the effective medium in a random medium. The recently introduced effective medium theory (PRL…
Soft-collinear effective theory provides a systematic theoretical framework to describe the factorization of short- and long-distance QCD dynamics in hard-scattering processes that contain both, soft and energetic particles/jets. I present…
A classical way for exploring the scattering behavior of a small sphere is to approximate Mie coefficients with a Taylor series expansion. This ansatz delivered a plethora of insightful results, mostly for small spheres supporting localized…
Nanocomposites with tailored optical properties can provide a new degree of freedom for optical design. However, despite their potential these materials remain unused in bulk applications. Here we investigate the conditions under which they…
Recently, we showed that dielectric mesoscale spheres support super-resonance effect, i.e. high-order Mie resonance modes with giant field enhancement. The presence of the surrounding medium leads to a significant influence in the intensity…
Controlling the electromagnetic helicity and directionality of the light scattered by dielectric particles is paramount to a variety of phenomenology of interest in all-dielectric optics and photonics. In this Letter, we show that the…
The optical properties of clusters with metallic spherical particles embedded in an insulating matrix are studied. A theoretical approach is proposed for the calculation of the macroscopic dielectric response for a collection of spheres at…
We propose an improved effective-medium theory to obtain the concentration dependence of the viscosity of particle suspensions at arbitrary volume fractions. Our methodology can be applied, in principle, to any particle shape as long as the…
The optical trapping and manipulation of small particles is an important tool for probing fluid properties at the microscale. In particular, microrheology exploits the manipulation and rotation of micron-scale particles to probe local…
We construct a new Skyrme interaction Sk$\chi$m$^*$ by fitting the equation of state and nucleon effective masses in asymmetric nuclear matter from chiral two- and three-body forces as well as the binding energies of finite nuclei.…
A new scheme for constructing approximate effective electron potentials within density-functional theory is proposed. The scheme consists of calculating the effective potential for a series of reference systems, and then using these…
Using a hydrogen molecule as a test system we demonstrate how to compute the effective potential according to the formalism of the new density functional theory (DFT), in which the basic variable is the set of spherically averaged densities…
For microwave-dressed polar molecules, we analytically derive an intermolecular potential composed of an anisotropic van der Waals shielding core and a long-range dipolar interaction. We validate this effective potential by comparing its…
