The electronic environment causes decoherence and dissipation of the collective surface plasmon excitation in metallic nanoparticles. We show that the coupling to the electronic environment influences the width and the position of the…
Collective excitations in simple metal systems can be described successfully in terms of a local one-body excitation operator Q, due to the long range nature of the coulomb interaction. For the plasmon modes of a simple-metal slab, momentum…
Small-wavevector excitations in Coulomb-interacting systems can be decomposed into the high-energy collective longitudinal plasmon and the low-energy single-electron excitations. At the critical wavevector and corresponding frequency where…
We develop a theoretical model of the surface plasmon resonance of metallic nanospheres in the size range down to the single nanometer size. Within this model we explicitly show how different microscopic mechanisms, namely quantization due…
We study the distance dependence of the rate of electronic excitation energy transfer from a dye molecule to a metal nanoparticle. Using the spherical jellium model, we evaluate the rates corresponding to the excitation of l = 1, 2, and 3…
The random-phase-approximation (RPA) method with separable residual forces (SRPA) is proposed for the description of multipole electric oscillations of valence electrons in deformed alkali metal clusters. Both the deformed mean field and…
The random-phase-approximation semiclassical scheme for description of plasmon excitations in large metallic nanospheres, with radius range 10-60 nm, is formulated in an all-analytical version. The spectrum of plasmons is determined…
The spectral properties, momentum dispersion, and broadening of bulk plasmonic excitations of 26 elemental metals are studied from first principles calculations in the random-phase approximation. Spectral band structures are constructed…
We propose an explanation for the anomalous behaviour observed in the relaxation dynamics of the differential optical transmission of noble-metal nanoparticles. Using the temperature dependences of the position and the width of the surface…
Plasmon modes, their dispersion, and the onset of damping when approaching the electron-hole continuum are well understood when electron correlations are weak. However, we know little about how this picture is modified and what additional…
Origin of shifts in the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) frequency for noble metal (Au, Ag) nanoclusters are discussed in this book chapter. Spill out of electron from the Fermi surface is considered as the origin of red shift. On the other…
In this paper, we employ the Variable Phase Approach (VPA) to obtain the scattering phase shifts \( \delta(E, r) \), amplitude function \( A(r) \), and radial wavefunction \( u(r) \) for various channels involved in the astrophysical…
The effect of nonlocality on the optical response of metals lies at the forefront of research in nanoscale physics and, in particular, quantum plasmonics. In alkali metals, nonlocality manifests predominantly as electron density spill-out…
Axion clumps in an external magnetic field can emit electromagnetic radiation which causes them to decay. In the presence of a plasma, such radiation can become resonant if the clump frequency matches the plasma frequency. Typically, the…
Multiple emission of intermediate-mass fragments has been studied for the collisions of p, $^4$He and $^{12}$C on Au with the $4\pi$ setup FASA. In the case of $^{12}$C(22.4 GeV)+Au and $^4$He(14.6 GeV)+Au collisions, the deviations from a…
We address the problem of energy dispersion of radiation pressure accelerated (RPA) ion beams emerging from a thin (solid) target. Two different acceleration schemes, namely phase-stable acceleration and multi-stage acceleration, are…
Ab initio calculations of the electronic energy loss of ions moving in aluminum crystal are presented, within linear-response theory, from a realistic description of the one-electron band-structure and a full treatment of the dynamical…
Starting from the Random Phase Approximation (RPA), we generalize the schematic model of separable interaction defning subspaces of ph excitations with different coupling constants between them. This ansatz simplifies the RPA eigenvalue…
We present the first experimental study of optical response of collective plasmon resonances in regular arrays of nanoresonators to local environment. Recently observed collective plasmon modes arise due to diffractive coupling of localised…
We use momentum-dependent electron energy-loss spectroscopy in transmission to study collective charge excitations in the layer metal Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. This metal has a transition from a perfect Fermi liquid below $T\approx30\,$K into a…
