The potential energy of a static charge distribution on a lattice is rigorously computed in the standard compact quantum electrodynamic model. The method used follows closely that of Weyl for ordinary quantum electrodynamics in continuous…

The local approach to computing electrostatic interactions proposed by Maggs and adapted by Pasichnyk for molecular dynamics simulations is extended to situations where the dielectric background medium is inhomogeneous. We furthermore…

Crystallization of a classical two-dimensional one-component plasma (electrons interacting with the Coulomb repulsion in a uniform neutralizing positive background) is investigated with a molecular dynamics simulation. The positional and…

Ac electrical measurements have been reported for alkali halide mixed crystals that were melt grown from NaCl, KCl and KBr starting materials. They showed a nonlinear variation of all the electrical parameters with the bulk composition.…

The classical one-component plasma (OCP) bounded by a spherical surface reflecting ions (BOCP) is studied using molecular dynamics (MD). Simulations performed for a series of sufficiently large BOCP's make it possible to establish the size…

We study the semiclassical dynamics of interacting electrons in a biased crystal lattice. A complex dynamical scenario emerges from the interplay between the Coulomb and the external electric fields. When the electrons are far apart, the…

There is a growing interest in high-precision spectroscopy and frequency metrology for fundamental studies using sympathetically cooled highly charged ions (HCIs) embedded in Coulomb crystals of laser-cooled ions. In order to understand how…

We consider finite discrete systems consisting of two different atomic types and investigate ground-state configurations for configurational energies featuring two-body short-ranged particle interactions. The atomic potentials favor some…

This is a follow-up to our earlier work on the energies and radial distributions of heavy-light mesons. The heavy quark is taken to be static (infinitely heavy) and the light quark has a mass about that of the strange quark. We now…

We demonstrate light-induced localization of Coulomb-interacting particles in multi-dimensional structures. Subwavelength localization of ions within small multi-dimensional Coulomb crystals by an intracavity optical standing wave field is…

We study binary mixtures of ultra-cold atoms, confined to one dimension in an optical lattice, with commensurate densities. Within a Luttinger liquid description, which treats various mixtures on equal footing, we derive a system of…

We argue that, due to the specific form of the interaction potential between electronic guiding centers, a bubble crystal (BC) with basis may be energetically more favorable than the usual bubble solid. This new BC has well-defined normal…

A Hartree-Fock and Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov study of a few body system of spatially separated charge carriers was carried out. Using these variational states, we compute an approximation to the correlation energy of a finite system of…

We study the ground state properties of classical Coulomb charges interacting with a 1/r potential moving on a plane but confined either by a circular hard wall boundary or by a harmonic potential. The charge density in the continuum limit…

The possibility of creating crystal bilayers twisted with respect to each other has led to the discovery of a wide range of novel electron correlated phenomena whose full understanding is still under debate. Here we propose and analyze a…

We use laser-cooled ion Coulomb crystals in the well-controlled environment of a harmonic radiofrequency ion trap to investigate phase transitions and defect formation. Topological defects in ion Coulomb crystals (kinks) have been recently…

Electronic states in boron-nitride and boron-carbon-nitride nanoribbons with zigzag edges are studied using the extended Hubbard model with nearest neighbor Coulomb interactions. The charge and spin polarized states are considered, and the…

Results of our recent highly accurate computations of the Coulomb two-center systems with the unit electrical charges $X^{+} X^{+} e^{-}$ and $X^{+} Y^{+} e^{-}$ are discussed. In particular, we have determined (to very high accuracy) the…

The quality of biomolecular simulations critically depends on the accuracy of the force field used to calculate the potential energy of the molecular configurations. Currently, most simulations employ non-polarisable force fields, which…

Ionic crystals, such as solid electrolytes and complex oxides, are central to modern technologies for energy storage, sensing, actuation, and other functional applications. An important fundamental issue in the atomic and quantum-scale…
