Three-nucleon calculations for local potentials with the quasiparticle method

1974

The three-nucleon system for energies below the breakup threshold is investigated with the help of the quasiparticle method. Two types of local potentials are used, namely purely attractive Yukawa potentials and the soft-core potentials of Malfliet and Tjon. The results obtained are compared with those of other calculations employing different methods.

Spectral distribution and Coulomb correction for nuclear bremsstrahlung induced by heavy targets

2021

Abstract Bremsstrahlung spectra below 250 MeV have been measured colliding 500 MeV–electrons with Cu, Ag, and Au targets. The experimental intensity ratios relative to Cu are well described by an accurate analytical high-energy theory, which accounts both for Coulomb distortion and screening. This represents the first experimental verification of the discovery by Bethe-Maximon that leading-order quantum mechanical calculations, equivalent to quasiclassical approximations, become exact at high energies and small angles. It also shows that radiative QED effects play a minor role in the covered part of the spectral distribution within the accuracy (1.6%) of the present measurements.

Propagators for Particles in an External Magnetic Field

2001

In order to describe the propagation of a scalar particle in an external potential, we begin again with the path integral $$ K(r',t';r,0) = \int_{r,(0)}^{r',(t')} {[dr(t)]} \exp \left\{ {\frac{{\text{i}}} {\hbar }S[r(t)]} \right\} $$ (1) with $$ S[r(t)] = \int_0^{t'} {dt} L(r,\dot r). $$

Quantum Thermodynamic Perturbation Theory for Fermions

1993

The quantum version of classical thermodynamic perturbation theory is applied to the ground state of a fluid of spin-1/2 fermions interacting via the Aziz interatomic potential, as a model for liquid 3He. Results from the rapidly-convergent sixth-order calculation about the unperturbed hard-sphere fluid for energy, density and sound velocity at the zero-pressure liquid equilibrium point, lie within a few percent of computer-simulation values and appreciably closer than the most elaborate recent variational calculation. The procedure explicitly avoids crossing phase boundaries and is relatively insensitive to varying the close-packing density up to a value somewhat below the maximum possible…

Determination of the mobility edge in the Anderson model of localization in three dimensions by multifractal analysis.

1995

We study the Anderson model of localization in three dimensions with different probability distributions for the site energies. Using the Lanczos algorithm we calculate eigenvectors for different model parameters like disorder and energy. From these we derive the singularity spectrum typically used for the characterization of multifractal objects. We demonstrate that the singularity spectrum at the critical disorder, which determines the mobility edge at the band center, is independent of the employed probability distribution. Assuming that this singularity spectrum is universal for the metal-insulator transition regardless of specific parameters of the model we establish a straightforward …

Driven Appearance and Disappearance of Quantum Zeno Effect in the Dynamics of a Four-level Trapped Ion

2001

An example of constrained unitary quantum dynamics in the context of trapped ions is given. We study a laser driven four-level ion system confined in an isotropic three-dimensional Paul microtrap. Our main result is that when two independent controllable continuous measurement processes are simultaneously present, the unitary quantum dynamics of the system can be parametrically frozen into a one-dimensional Hilbert subspace (Quantum Zeno Effect) or constrained into a two-dimensional one, at will. Conditions under which one of the two processes acts upon the physical system inhibiting the effects due to the other one, are explicitly found and discussed (Hierarchically Controlled Dynamics).
