The atomistic resolution recently achieved by ultrafast spectroscopies demands corresponding theoretical advances. Real-time time-dependent density-functional theory (RT-TDDFT) with Ehrenfest dynamics offers an optimal trade-off between…
The origin of enhanced reactivity in aqueous microdroplets remains debated, with interfacial electric fields (IEFs) often invoked as catalytic drivers. Here, we provide a quantum-mechanical, spatially resolved characterization of the…
The ion distribution of electrolytes near interfaces with dielectric contrast has important consequences for electrochemical processes and many other applications. To date, most studies of such systems have focused on geometrically simple…
A parallel plate capacitor containing an electrolytic solution is the simplest model of a supercapacitor, or electric double layer capacitor. Using both analytical and numerical techniques, we solve the Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations for…
In this work, we investigate the generation of the ambipolar electric field in a gravitationally stratified, collisionless plasma atmosphere. In such environments, gravity tends to separate charged species. To prevent separation an electric…
This study has numerically investigated the charge-heterogeneity effects in the electroviscous flow of symmetric ($1$:$1$) electrolyte liquid through a uniform slit microfluidic device. The Poisson's, Nernst-Planck (N-P), Navier-Stokes…
Parameters of a high frequency capacitive discharge in argon in axially symmetric chambers of different geometries are studied in experiments and by means of two-dimensional kinetic modeling by the Particle-in-Cell method. It is…
We introduce an orbital free electron density functional approximation based on alchemical perturbation theory. Given convergent perturbations of a suitable reference system, the accuracy of popular self-consistent Kohn-Sham density…
In this work we used Particle-In-Cell simulations to study the interaction of circularly polarised Alfv\'en waves with one dimensional plasma density inhomogeneities transverse to the uniform magnetic field (phase mixing) in collisionless…
Electromagnetic fields produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions are affected by the asymmetry of the projectile-target combination as well as the different initial configurations of the nucleus. In this study, the results of the…
We introduce a new paradigm for one-dimensional uniform electron gases (UEGs). In this model, $n$ electrons are confined to a ring and interact via a bare Coulomb operator. We use Rayleigh-Schr\"odinger perturbation theory to show that, in…
In this paper, we develop an asymptotic expansion-regularization (AER) method for inverse source problems in two-dimensional nonlinear and nonstationary singularly perturbed partial differential equations (PDEs). The key idea of this…
Using particle-in-cell simulation technique, we investigate the plasma and ionization asymmetry, electron and ion energy distribution function in capacitive discharges excited by tailored waveforms. At a base frequency of 13.56 MHz, three…
Recent Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations report approximate equality between electric and magnetic field energy spectral densities, $\varepsilon_{0} P[\delta E]/2 \approx P[\delta B]/(2\mu_{0})$, at sub-electron scales in…
Electron-positron pair production from vacuum in spatially inhomogeneous electric fields with quadratically symmetric chirp is studied within the real-time Dirac-Heisenberg-Wigner formalism. The reduced momentum spectrum and the reduced…
Regulation of topological structures and pattern formation is attracting wide interest in the field of condensed matter. Liquid crystals (LCs) represent soft matter with a remarkable combination of fluidity and anisotropic properties.…
Conventional understanding of spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) atom ensemble pertains to the common perception that the rapid exchange of atom state finally results in uniform time evolution of the whole ensemble. However, in this…
We demonstrate that an applied electric field causes piezoelectric distortion across single molecular monolayers of oligopeptides. We deposited self-assembled monolayers ~1.5 nm high onto smooth gold surfaces. These monolayers exhibit…
Elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) with discontinuous diffusion coefficients occur in application domains such as diffusions through porous media, electro-magnetic field propagation on heterogeneous media, and diffusion…
A deeper understanding of the cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) formation mechanism is essential to elucidate battery degradation. Here, we combine Liquid Electrochemical Transmission Electron Microscopy (ec-TEM) with Gas…
