We study by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations the local superfluid response of small (up to 27 molecules) parahydrogen clusters, down to temperatures as low as 0.05 K. We show that at low temperature superfluidity is not confined at the…
We studied by means of computer simulations the low temperature properties of two-dimensional parahydrogen clusters comprising between 7 and 30 molecules. Computed energetics is in quantitative agreement with that reported in the only…
We present results of computer simulations of a parahydrogen cluster of a thousand molecules, corresponding to approximately 4 nm in diameter, at temperatures between 1 K and 10 K. Examination of structural properties suggests that the…
The superfluid response of nanoscale size quasi-2D He-4 droplets adsorbed on a graphite substrate is investigated by computer simulations. It is found that clusters comprising as few as 7 atoms are stable at temperatures lower than < 0.15…
Structural and superfluid properties of para-Hydrogen clusters of size up to N=40 molecules, are studied at low temperature (0.5 K < T < 4 K) by Path Integral Monte Carlo simulations. The superfluid fraction displays an interesting,…
We present results of a theoretical study of para-hydrogen and ortho-deuterium clusters at low temperature (0.5 K < T < 3.5 K), based on Path Integral Monte Carlo simulations. Clusters of size up to N=21 para-hydrogen molecules are nearly…
It is shown by computer simulations that superfluid {\it para}-hydrogen clusters of more than 22 molecules can be turned insulating and "solidlike" by the replacement of as few as one or two molecules, with ones of the heavier {\it…
We present a detailed molecular-dynamics study of the diffusion and coalescence of large (249-atom) gold clusters on graphite surfaces. The diffusivity of monoclusters is found to be comparable to that for single adatoms. Likewise, and even…

We study by computer simulations the effect of confinement on the superfluid properties of small two-dimensional (2D) parahydrogen clusters. For clusters of fewer than twenty molecules, the superfluid response in the low temperature limit…
The formation of atomic nanoclusters on suspended graphene sheets have been investigated by employing a Molecular dynamics simulation at finite temperature. Our systematic study is based on temperature dependent Molecular dynamics…
The interplay between magic number stabilities and superfluidity of small para-hydrogen clusters with sizes $N = 5$ to 40 and temperatures $0.5 K \leq T \leq 4.5 $K is explored with classical and quantum Path Integral Monte Carlo…
First principle computer simulations yield evidence of a finite superfluid response at low temperature of a parahydrogen cluster of 15 molecules in bulk superfluid He-4. The superfluid fraction is worth ~44% at T=0.25 K, growing to about…

Sodium atoms and clusters (N<5) on graphite (0001) are studied using density functional theory, pseudopotentials and periodic boundary conditions. A single Na atom is observed to bind at a hollow site 2.45 A above the surface with an…
A large measured 2D diffusion coefficient of gold nanoclusters on graphite has been known experimentally and theoretically for about a decade. When subjected to a lateral force, these clusters should slide with an amount of friction that…
Structure and superfluid response of nanoscale size helium-four clusters enclosed in spherical cavities are studied by computer simulations. The curved surface causes the formation of well-defined concentric shells, thus imparting to the…
Adsorption of ortho-deuterium and para-hydrogen films on a graphite substrate, pre-plated with a single atomic layer of krypton, is studied theoretically by means of quantum Monte Carlo simulations at low temperature. Our model explicitly…
High resolution spectroscopy of doped molecules in 4He nano-droplets and clusters gives a signature of superfluidity in microscopic system, termed as microscopic superfluidity. Ro-vibrational spectrum of 4HeN-M clusters is studied with the…
Controlled assembly of single-crystal, colloidal maghemite nanoparticles is facilitated via a high-temperature polyol-based pathway. Structural characterization shows that size-tunable nanoclusters of 50 and 86 nm diameters (D), with high…
