Approximate solutions of Dirac equation with a ring-shaped Woods-Saxon potential by Nikiforov-Uvarov method

An approximate analytical solution of the Dirac equation is obtained for the ring-shaped Woods-Saxon potential within the framework of an exponential approximation to the centrifugal term. The radial and angular parts of the equation are solved by the Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The general results obtained in this work can be reduced to the standard forms already present in the literature.     

Semiempirical fine-tuning for Hartree–Fock ionization potentials of atomic ions with non-integral atomic number

Amovilli and March (2006) [8] used diffusion quantum Monte Carlo techniques to calculate the non-relativistic ionization potential I(Z)$I(Z)$ in He-like atomic ions for the range of (fractional) nuclear charges Z   lying between the known critical value _Zc=0.911$Z_{\mathrm{c}}=0.911$ at which I(Z)$I(Z)$ tends to zero and Z=2$Z=2$. They showed that it is possible to fit I(Z)$I(Z)$ to a simple quadratic expression. Following that idea, we present here a semiempirical fine-tuning of Hartree–Fock ionization potentials for the isoelectronic series of He, Be, Ne, Mg and Ar-like atomic ions that leads to excellent estimations of _Zc$Z_{\mathrm{c}}$ for these series. The empirical information involved is experimental ionization and electron affinity data. It is clearly demonstrated that Hartree–Fock theory provides an excellent starting point for determining I(Z)$I(Z)$ for these series.     

Dynamical algebras for Pöschl-Teller Hamiltonian hierarchies

The dynamical algebras of the trigonometric and hyperbolic symmetric Pöschl-Teller Hamiltonian hierarchies are obtained. A kind of discrete-differential realizations of these algebras are found which are isomorphic to so(3, 2) Lie algebras. In order to get them, first the relation between ladder and factor operators is investigated. In particular, the action of the ladder operators on normalized eigenfunctions is found explicitly. Then, the whole dynamical algebras are generated in a straightforward way.     

Atom waveguide and 1D optical lattice using a two-color evanescent light field around an optical micro/nano-fiber

We propose a two-color scheme of atom waveguides and one-dimensional （1D） optical lattices using evanescent wave fields of different transverse modes around an optical micro/nano-fiber. The atom guide potential can be produced when the optical fiber carries a red-detuned light with TE01 mode and a blue-detuned light with HEll mode, and the 1D optical lattice potential can be produced when the red-detuned light is transformed to the superposition of the TE01 mode and HE11 mode. The two trapping potentials can be transformed to each other for accurately controlling mode transformation for the red-detuned light. This might provide a new approach to realize flexible transition between the guiding and trapping states of atoms.     

The low-temperature phase of Kac-Ising models

We analyze the low-temperature phase of ferromagnetic Kax-Ising models in dimensionsd2. We show that if the range of interactions is ^–1, then two disjoint translation-invariant Gibbs states exist if the inverse temperature satisfies –1^N, where =d(1–)/(2d+2)(d+1), for any >0. The proof involves the blocking procedure usual for Kac models and also a contour representation for the resulting long-range (almost) continuous-spin system which is suitable for the use of a variant of the Peierls argument.     

Coupled channel description of O+Nd scattering around the Coulomb barrier using a complex microscopic potential

Angular distributions of elastic scattering and inelastic scattering from 2⁺₁ state are measured for ¹⁶O+^142,144,146Nd systems at several energies in the vicinity of the Coulomb barrier. The angular distributions are systematically analyzed in coupled channel framework. Renormalized double folded real optical and coupling potentials with DDM3Y interaction have been used in the calculation. Relevant nuclear densities needed to generate the potentials are derived from shell model wavefunctions. A truncated shell model calculation has been performed and the calculated energy levels are compared with the experimental ones. To simulate the absorption, a ‘hybrid’ approach is adopted. The contribution to the imaginary potential of couplings to the inelastic channels, other than the 2⁺₁ target excitation channel, is calculated in the Feshbach formalism. This calculated imaginary potential along with a short ranged volume Woods–Saxon potential to simulate the absorption in fusion channel reproduces the angular distributions for ¹⁶O+¹⁴⁶Nd quite well. But for ¹⁶O+^142,144Nd systems additional surface absorption is found to be necessary to fit the angular distribution data. The variations of this additional absorption term with incident energy and the mass of the target are explored.     

Brownian Approximation and Monte Carlo Simulation of the Non-Cutoff Kac Equation

The non-cutoff Boltzmann equation can be simulated using the DSMC method, by a truncation of the collision term. However, even for computing stationary solutions this may be very time consuming, in particular in situations far from equilibrium. By adding an appropriate diffusion, to the DSMC-method, the rate of convergence when the truncation is removed, may be greatly improved. We illustrate the technique on a toy model, the Kac equation, as well as on the full Boltzmann equation in a special case.     

Polynomial Solution of Non-Central Potentials

We show that the exact energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Schrödinger equation for charged particles moving in certain class of non-central potentials can be easily calculated analytically in a simple and elegant manner by using Nikiforov and Uvarov (NU) method. We discuss the generalized Coulomb and harmonic oscillator systems. We study the Hartmann Coulomb and the ring-shaped and compound Coulomb plus Aharanov–Bohm potentials as special cases. The results are in exact agreement with other methods.     

Thermodynamic potentials and thermodynamic relations in nonextensive thermodynamics

The generalized Gibbs free energy and enthalpy are derived in the framework of nonextensive thermodynamics by using the concept of the physical temperature and the physical pressure. Some relations of the thermodynamical potentials are changed due to the difference between the physical temperature and the inverse of Lagrange multiplier. We derive the thermodynamical relation between the heat capacities at a constant volume and at a constant pressure using the generalized thermodynamical potential. We find that it has a different form from the traditional one in Gibbs thermodynamics. But, the expressions of the heat capacities in this framework using the generalized thermodynamical potentials are still the same as the traditional one.
