A frozen, solid helium core, dubbed snowball, is typically observed around cations in liquid helium. Here we discover, using path integral simulations, that around a cationic molecular impurity, protonated methane, the $^4$He atoms are…

Sequential ionization of fullerene cluster ions (C$_{60}$)$_{n}^{+}$ within multiply-charged helium nanodroplets leads to the intriguing phenomenon of forming and stabilizing doubly- and triply-charged fullerene oligomers. Surprisingly, we…
A photo-excited II-VI semiconductor nanocrystal doped with a few Mn spins is considered. The effects of spin-exciton interactions and the resulting multi-spin correlations on the photoluminescence are calculated by numerical diagonalization…
In several settings of physics and chemistry one has to deal with molecules interacting with some kind of an external environment, be it a gas, a solution, or a crystal surface. Understanding molecular processes in the presence of such a…
The assemblies of either quantum dots or magnetic nanoclusters are studied. It is shown that such assemblies can produce coherent radiation. A method is developed for solving the systems of nonlinear equations describing the dynamics of…

One of the most important task in physics today is to merge quantum mechanics and general relativity into one framework. And the main barrier in this task is that we lack quantum gravitational phenomena in experiments. An important way to…
Realistic model Hamiltonians for quantum spin liquids frequently exhibit a large separation of energy scales between their elementary excitations. At intermediate, experimentally relevant temperatures, some excitations are sparse and hop…
The local order around alkali (Li$^+$ and Na$^+$) and alkaline-eath (Be$^+$, Mg$^+$ and Ca$^+$) ions in $^4$He clusters has been studied using ground-state path integral Monte Carlo calculations. We apply a criterion based on multipole…
In 2023, ultrafast pump-probe spectrocopy was used to record the solvation dynamics of a single Na$^+$ ion in a liquid helium droplet, atom-by-atom and with femtosecond time resolution [Albrechtsen \textit{et al., Nature}, 2023,…
Certain point defects in solids can efficiently be used as qubits for applications in quantum technology. They have spin states that are initializable, readable, robust, and can be manipulated optically. New theoretical methods are needed…
Ab initio calculations provide direct access to the properties of pure neutron systems that are challenging to study experimentally. In addition to their importance for fundamental physics, their properties are required as input for…
The bilayer Hubbard model with electron-hole doping is an ideal platform to study excitonic orders due to suppressed recombination via spatial separation of electrons and holes. However, suffering from the sign problem, previous quantum…
