The H2+ molecular ion: Low-lying states

Matching for a wavefunction the WKB expansion at large distances and Taylor expansion at small distances leads to a compact, few-parametric uniform approximation found in Turbiner and Olivares-Pilon (2011). The ten low-lying eigenstates of H₂⁺ of the quantum numbers (n,m,Λ,±)$(n,m,\Lambda ,\pm )$  with n=m=0$n=m=0$ at Λ=0,1,2$\Lambda =0,1,2$, with n=1$n=1$, m=0$m=0$ and n=0$n=0$, m=1$m=1$ at Λ=0$\Lambda =0$ of both parities are explored for all interproton distances R$R$. For all these states this approximation provides the relative accuracy ?10⁻⁵$?10^{-5}$ (not less than 5 s.d.) locally, for any real coordinate x$x$ in eigenfunctions, when for total energy E(R)$E\left(R\right)$ it gives 10-11 s.d. for R∈[0,50]$R\in [0,50]$  a.u. Corrections to the approximation are evaluated in the specially-designed, convergent perturbation theory. Separation constants are found with not less than 8 s.d. The oscillator strength for the electric dipole transitions E1$E1$ is calculated with not less than 6 s.d. A dramatic dip in the E1$E1$ oscillator strength f_{1sσg−3pσu}$f_{1s{\sigma }_g-3p{\sigma }_u}$ at R∼R_eq$R\sim R_{eq}$ is observed. The magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole transitions are calculated for the first time with not less than 6 s.d. in oscillator strength. For two lowest states (0,0,0,±)$(0,0,0,\pm )$ (or, equivalently, 1sσ_g$1s{\sigma }_g$ and 2pσ_u$2p{\sigma }_u$ states) the potential curves are checked and confirmed in the Lagrange mesh method within 12 s.d. Based on them the Energy Gap between 1sσ_g$1s{\sigma }_g$ and 2pσ_u$2p{\sigma }_u$ potential curves is approximated with modified Pade Re^−R[Pade(8/7)](R)$R{e}^{-R}\left[Pade(8/7)\right]\left(R\right)$ with not less than 4-5 figures at R∈[0,40]$R\in [0,40]$ a.u. Sum of potential curves E_1sσg+E_2pσu$E_{1s{\sigma }_g}+E_{2p{\sigma }_u}$ is approximated by Pade 1/R[Pade(5/8)](R)$1/R\left[Pade(5/8)\right]\left(R\right)$ in R∈[0,40]$R\in [0,40]$ a.u. with not less than 3-4 figures.     

Preparation of quantum states of two spin-12 particles in the form of the Schmidt decomposition

We consider a system of two spins that are coupled via an isotropic Heisenberg Hamiltonian. For the first time, a two-step method for the preparation of an arbitrary quantum state of two qubits in the form of the Schmidt decomposition is proposed. The simplified version of this method is applied to the physical system of an atom with a nuclear spin 1/2 and one valence electron. As an example, the preparation of two-spin quantum states in the ³¹P system is considered.     

One-loop effective potential in N=12 generic chiral superfield model

We obtain the one-loop quantum corrections to the Kählerian and superpotentials in the generic chiral superfield model on the nonanticommutative superspace. Unlike all previous works, we use a method which does not require to rewrite a star-product of superfields in terms of ordinary products. In the Kählerian potential sector the one-loop contributions are analogous to ones in the undeformed theory while in the chiral potential sector the quantum corrections contain a deformation parameter.     

A theoretical study on electron transfer in low-energy collisions of a collinear meta-stable with a $ {\rm{Na}}_3^ - $ {\rm{Na}}_3^ - " border="0"> Na

Electron transfer in the collisions of a with a Na is theoretically studied. It is assumed that the target is collinear (D _h ) and that its electronic state is meta-stable triplet state. Adiabatic potential energy surfaces and non-adiabatic couplings of the system are calculated by using a semi-empirical diatomics-in-molecules (DIM) method. The positions of (avoided)-crossings of potential surfaces are investigated and the non-adiabatic couplings between two different electronic states are calculated. An avoided crossing is found in the region where the separation between the target and projectile is relatively large (10–15 bohr). A dynamical calculation demonstrates that this crossing causes charge transfer between the target and projectile. Another intersection at a smaller separation changes the targets spin state (from triplet state to singlet state or vice versa). The cross-sections for charge and spin transfer reaction are estimated at the collision energy of 6.8 keV. It is found that the charge transfer cross-section is extremely enhanced when the target cluster ion is in its meta-stable triplet state comared to the case where the cluster is the ground singlet state.
