The calculation of the discrete atomistic energy of a crystal near the continuum limit encounters difficulties caused by the geometric discrepancy between the continuum region occupied by the body, and the discrete collection of lattice…

We present a method for calculating ab initio interatomic forces which scales quadratically with the size of the system and provides a physically transparent representation of the force in terms of the spatial variation of the electronic…

Accurate quantum mechanics based predictions of property trends are so important for materials design and discovery that even inexpensive approximate methods are valuable. We use the Alchemical Integral Transform (AIT) to study…

The aim of this note is two-fold. In the first part of the paper we are going to investigate an inverse problem related to additive energy. In the second, we investigate how dense a subset of a finite structure can be for a given additive…

In this paper, we summarize the technique of using Green functions to solve electrostatic problems. We start by deriving the electric potential in terms of a Green function and a charge distribution. We then provide a variety of example…

Using fourth-order perturbation theory, a general formula for the van der Waals potential of two neutral, unpolarized, ground-state atoms in the presence of an arbitrary arrangement of dispersing and absorbing magnetodielectric bodies is…

Energy transport can reveal information about interacting many-body systems beyond other transport probes. In particular, in one dimension it has been shown that the energy current is directly proportional to the central charge, thus…

We calculate equilibrium and nonequilibrium Casimir-Polder force felt by a small particle (an atom)near a flat substrate using the framework of fluctuation electrodynamics in configuration of a small sphere above a flat substrate. A…

We study the behavior of energy levels in two dimensions for exotic atoms, i.e., when a long-range attractive potential is supplemented by a short-range interaction, and compare the results with these of the one- and three-dimensional…

We calculate the force of a near-resonant guided light field of an ultrathin optical fiber on a two-level atom. We show that, if the atomic dipole rotates in the meridional plane, the magnitude of the force of the guided light depends on…

The response of matter to fields underlies the physical sciences, from particle physics to astrophysics, and from chemistry to biophysics. We observe an atom's response to an electric quadrupole field to second- and higher orders; this…

Closed nonrelativistic (nonretarded) theory of conservative and dissipative electromagnetic forces and heat exchange between moving particles (nanoprobes) and a surface (flat and cylindrical) is reviewed. The formalism is based on methods…

The classical electromagnetic self-force on an arbitrary time-dependent electric or magnetic dipole moving with constant velocity in vacuum, and in a medium, is considered. Of course, in vacuum there is no net force on such a particle.…

The efficiency of soft particles to stabilize emulsions is examined by measuring their desorption free energy, i.e., the mechanical work required to detach the particle from a fluid interface. Here, we consider rubber-like elastic as well…

In heavy atoms and ions, nuclear structure effects are significantly enhanced due to the overlap of the electron wave functions with the nucleus. This overlap rapidly increases with the nuclear charge $Z$. We study the energy level shifts…

In this review we consider those processes in condensed matter that involve the irreversible flow of energy between electrons and nuclei that follows from a system being taken out of equilibrium. We survey some of the more important…

The discrete Fourier transform is approximated by summing over part of the terms with corresponding weights. The approximation reduces significantly the requirement for computer memory storage and enhances the numerical computation…

We analyze the electronic structure of atoms in the first, second and third periods using the electronic kinetic energy density and stress tensor density, which are local quantities motivated by quantum field theoretic consideration,…

A dynamically preferred quasi-local definition of gravitational energy is given in terms of the Hamiltonian of a `2+2' formulation of general relativity. The energy is well-defined for any compact orientable spatial 2-surface, and depends…

The antiproton-deuteron atoms are studied in models of various realistic, popular nucleon-antinucleon potentials. The small energy shifts and decay widths of the atoms, which stem from the short-ranged strong interactions between the…
