Calculation of QED Effects in Hydrogen

Atomic mass differences are influenced by QED corrections, and a reliable understanding of these corrections is therefore of importance for the current and next generation of high-precision mass determinations based on Penning traps. We present a numerical evaluation of the self-energy correction, which is the dominant contribution to the Lamb shift, in the region of low nuclear charge. Our calculation is nonperturbative in the binding field and has a numerical uncertainty of 0.8Hz in atomic hydrogen for the ground state and of 1.0Hz for L-shell states (2S_1/2, 2P_1/2, and 2P_3/2).

Semiconductor Research Needs in the Nanoscale Physical Sciences: A Semiconductor Research Corporation Working Paper

The purpose of this paper is to identify areas in the basic physical sciences where additional research is needed to sustain the extraordinary progress in electronics that has now extended for several decades. Also, it is argued that basic research will provide the foundation for the discovery of new generations of nanoelectronic devices that will continue the experimental rate of reduction in cost per function. Some of the fundamental areas requiring further research are the chemistry and physics of material interfaces, conductivity at small dimensions, deterministic doping effects, and nanomagnetics. Discovery research also is needed in the functional synergy of nanoelectronic materials and non-traditional fabrication methods.     

Phase-controlled atom-photon entanglement in a three-level Λ-type closed-loop atomic system

We study the entanglement of dressed atom and its spontaneous emission in a three-level Λ-type closed-loop atomic system in a multi-photon resonance condition and beyond it.It is shown that the von Neumann entropy in such a system is phase-dependent,and it can be controlled by either the intensity or relative phase of applied fields.It is demonstrated that for the special case of the Rabi frequency of applied fields,the system is disentangled.In addition,we take into account the effect of Doppler broadening on the entanglement and it is found that a suitable choice of laser propagation direction allows us to obtain the steady state degree of entanglement(DEM) even in the presence of the Doppler effect.     

Atomistic insight into chondroitin‐6‐sulfate glycosaminoglycan chain through quantum mechanics calculations and molecular dynamics simulation

Chondroitin‐6‐sulfate (C6S) is a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) constituent in the extracellular matrix, which participates actively in crucial biological processes, as well as in various pathological conditions, such as atherosclerosis and cancer. Molecular interactions involving the C6S chain are therefore of considerable interest. A computational model for atomistic simulation was built. This work describes the design and validation of a force field for a C6S dodecasaccharide chain. The results of an extensive molecular dynamics simulation performed with the new force field provide a novel insight into the structure and dynamics of the C6S chain. The intramolecular H‐bonds in the disaccharide linkage region are suggested to play a major role in determining the chain structural dynamics. Moreover, the unravelling of an additional H‐bond involving the sulfate groups in C6S is interesting as changes in sulfation have been claimed to be an important factor in several diseases. The force field will prove useful for future studies of crucial interactions between C6S and various nanoassemblies. It can also be used as a basis for modeling of other GAGs. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Comput Chem, 2010

Quantum to Classical Transition by a Classically Small Interaction

We investigate the quantum-classical transition of a kicked rotor （KR） under perturbation by a second one. The influence of such a chaotic KR makes decoherence of the first one, resulting in the emergence of classical diffusion from its quantum dynamics. Such quantum-classical transition persists by decreasing the effective Planck＇s constant h, and at the same time, decreasing the mass of the second KR and the interaction strength proportionally. In the limit of h → 0, due to vanishing small mass and interaction, the second KR has almost no effect on the classieal dynamics of the first one. We demonstrate this via two different coupling potentials.     

Optimal structure and energetical relations on the catalyst surface: Evolution of concepts

Principles of the multiplet theory in heterogeneous catalysis are discussed in connection with studies of Professor Tétényi, new data and assumptions. It is desirable to put some correctives into the principles of structure and energetic correspondence proposed in this theory.

Dirac Equation and Some Quasi-Exact Solvable Potentials in the Turbiner's Classification

In this paper quasi-exact solvability(QES)of Dirac equation with some scalar potentials based on sl(2)Lie algebra is studied.According to the quasi-exact solvability theory,we construct the configuration of the classes II,IV,V,and X potentials in the Turbiner’s classification such that the Dirac equation with scalar potential is quasi-exactly solved and the Bethe ansatz equations are derived in order to obtain the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions.
