Infrared asymptotic freedom of a hierarchical φ 3 6 lattice theory

For the weakly coupled lattice ₃ ⁶ theory in a hierarchical model approximation a nonperturbative renormalization group analysis in the spirit of Gawedzki and Kupiainen is performed to study the flow of the effective actions. We deduce a domain of attraction to the tricritical (Gaussian) fixed point. The two relevant coupling constants of the problem are controlled by analytic continuation to complex domains, tracing their images under the renormalization group iterations.     

The deconfining phase transition in lattice quantum chromodynamics

We present a large-scale Monte Carlo calculation of the deconfining phase transition temperature in lattice quantum chromodynamics without fermions. Using the Wilson action, the transition temperature as a function of the lattice couplingg is consistent with scaling behavior dictated by the perturbativeα function for 6/g²>6.15.

Lattice parameter and thermal expansion of CsCl and CsBr by x-ray powder diffraction. II. Thermal expansion of CsBr from room temperature to 78.2 °K

The lattice parameters of CsBr at eight different temperatures from room temperature to 78.2 °K were measured and the true lattice parameters were obtained by the least squares method using the Nelson-Riley extrapolation function. Using these parameters the thermal expansion coefficients of CsBr were estimated at each temperature by fitting them into a cubic polynomial involving temperatureT. Theα _T thus obtained were compared with the values of earlier workers who used an interferometric technique and the agreement was found to be good.     

Flux Limiter Lattice Boltzmann Scheme Approach to Compressible Flows with Flexible Specific-Heat Ratio and Prandtl Number

We further develop the lattice Boltzmann (LB) model [Physica A 382 (2007) 502] for compressible flows from two aspects. Firstly, we modify the Bhatnagar--Gross-Krook (BGK) collision term in the LB equation, which makes the model suitable for simulating flows with different Prandtl numbers. Secondly, the flux limiter finite difference (FLFD) scheme is employed to calculate the convection term of the LB equation, which makes the unphysical oscillations at
discontinuities be effectively suppressed and the numerical dissipations be significantly diminished. The proposed model is validated by recovering results of some well-known benchmarks, including (i) The thermal Couette flow; (ii) One- and two-dimensional Riemann problems. Good agreements are obtained
between LB results and the exact ones or previously reported solutions. The flexibility, together with the high accuracy of the new model, endows the proposed model considerable potential for tracking some long-standing problems and for investigating nonlinear nonequilibrium complex systems.

A Note on Casoratian Solutions to Two-Dimensional Toda Lattice

In this short paper we generalize the conditions that Casoratian entries satisfy for the two-dlmenslonal Toda lattice. Although we finally conclude that our generalization is trivial in some sense for getting new solutions, our discussion is still helpful for the study of Wronskian technique.     

Efficiency of the Incomplete Enumeration Algorithm for Monte-Carlo Simulation of Linear and Branched Polymers

We study the efficiency of the incomplete enumeration algorithm for linear and branched polymers. There is a qualitative difference in the efficiency in these two cases. The average time to generate an independent sample of configuration of polymer with n monomers varies as n ² for linear polymers for large n, but as exp(cn ^α) for branched (undirected and directed) polymers, where 0<α<1. On the binary tree, our numerical studies for n of order 10⁴ gives α = 0.333±0.005. We argue that α =1/3 exactly in this case. An erratum to this article can be found at .     

Molecular dynamics simulations of pure methane and carbon dioxide hydrates: lattice constants and derivative properties

ABSTRACT

We report extensive molecular dynamics simulation results of pure methane and carbon dioxide hydrates at pressure and temperature conditions that are of interest to various practical applications. We focus on the calculation of the lattice constants of the two pure hydrates and their dependence on pressure and temperature. The calculated lattice constants are correlated using second order polynomials which are functions of either temperature or pressure. Finally, the obtained correlations are used in order to calculate two derivative properties, namely the isothermal compressibility and the isobaric thermal expansion coefficient. The current simulation results are also compared against reported experimental measurements and other simulation studies and good agreement is found for the case of isothermal compressibility. On the other hand, for the case of isobaric thermal expansion coefficient good agreement is found only with other simulation studies, while the simulation studies are in disagreement with experiments, particularly at low temperatures.     

Role of the d-f Coulomb interaction in intermediate valence and Kondo systems: a numerical renormalization group study

Using the numerical renormalization group method, the dependences on temperature of the magnetic susceptibility χ(T) and specific heat C(T) are obtained for the single-impurity Anderson model with inclusion of d-f the Coulomb interaction. It is shown that the exciton effects caused by this effect (charge fluctuations) can significantly change the behaviour of C(T) in comparison with the standard Anderson model at moderately low temperatures, whereas the behaviour of χ(T) remains nearly universal. The ground-state and temperature-dependent renormalizations of the effective hybridization parameter and f-level position caused by the d-f interaction are calculated, and satisfactory agreement with the Hartree-Fock approximation is derived.
