The vibrational levels of methane obtained from analyses of high-resolution spectra
2006
International audience; Methane and its tetrahedral isotopologues are spherical-top molecules whose high-resolution rovibrational spectra can only be analyzed in detail, thanks to sophisticated symmetry-adapted tensorial models. However, the effective Hamiltonian parameters of such models do not give direct access to the positions of the vibrational sublevels. In this paper, we present a calculation of the vibrational level positions for 12CH4, 13CH4, 12CD4 and 13CD4 performed using the effective Hamiltonian parameters obtained through recent analyses. We also include the results of a re-analysis of the octad system of 12CH4 performed with a higher order of the development which slightly im…
An improved algorithm for thermal dynamic simulation of walls using Z-transform coefficients
2003
The Transfer Function Method (TFM), recommended by American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), is one of the most modern tools available to solve heat transfer problems in building envelopes and environments. TFM utilises Z-transform to solve the equations system that describes the heat transfer in a multi-layered wall. Due to an analogy with an electric circuit, it is possible to write the equations system in a matrix suitable to be solved by computer. Authors carried out an analysis on an historical building placed in the south of Italy to test the reliability and the quality of the thermal dynamic simulation using TFM. The analysis is performed usi…
Intertwining operators between different Hilbert spaces: connection with frames
2009
In this paper we generalize a strategy recently proposed by the author concerning intertwining operators. In particular we discuss the possibility of extending our previous results in such a way to construct (almost) isospectral self-adjoint operators living in different Hilbert spaces. Many examples are discussed in details. Many of them arise from the theory of frames in Hilbert spaces, others from the so-called g-frames.
Vacuum induced berry phase: Theory and experimental proposal
2003
We investigate quantum effects in geometric phases arising when a two-level system is interacting with a quantized electromagnetic field. When the system is adiabatically driven along a closed loop in the parameter space, signatures of the field quantization are observable in the geometric phase. We propose a feasible experiment to measure these effects in cavity QED and also analyse the semi-classical limit, recovering the usual Berry phase results.
Edge Orientation and the Design of Problem-Specific Crossover Operators for the OCST Problem
2012
In the Euclidean optimal communication spanning tree problem, the edges in optimal trees not only have small weights but also point with high probability toward the center of the graph. These characteristics of optimal solutions can be used for the design of problem-specific evolutionary algorithms (EAs). Recombination operators of direct encodings like edge-set and NetDir can be extended such that they prefer not only edges with small distance weights but also edges that point toward the center of the graph. Experimental results show higher performance and robustness in comparison to EAs using existing crossover strategies.
Biorthogonal vectors, sesquilinear forms, and some physical operators
2018
Continuing the analysis undertaken in previous articles, we discuss some features of non-self-adjoint operators and sesquilinear forms which are defined starting from two biorthogonal families of vectors, like the so-called generalized Riesz systems, enjoying certain properties. In particular we discuss what happens when they forms two $\D$-quasi bases.
Adiabatic Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock Calculations of the Optimal Path, the Potential, and the Mass Parameter for Large-Amplitude Collective Motion
1980
The adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory is reformulated in order to yield a simple differential equation for the collective path with accompanying simple expressions for the collective mass and the potential. With use of three-dimensional coordinate- and momentum-space techniques and density-dependent interactions, the new adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock formalism is applied to $\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\alpha}$ scattering and correspondingly to the fission mode of $^{8}\mathrm{Be}$. In the overlapping region the resulting collective mass deviates strongly from the reduced mass.
Spheroidal and hyperspheroidal coordinates in the adiabatic representation of scattering states for the Coulomb three-body problem
2009
Recently, an involved approach has been used by Abramov (2008 J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 41 175201) to introduce a separable adiabatic basis into the hyperradial adiabatic (HA) approximation. The aim was to combine the separability of the Born–Oppenheimer (BO) adiabatic basis and the better asymptotic properties of the HA approach. Generalizing these results we present here three more different separable bases of the same type by making use of a previously introduced adiabatic Hamiltonian expressed in hyperspheroidal coordinates (Matveenko 1983 Phys. Lett. B 129 11). In addition, we propose a robust procedure which accounts in a stepwise procedure for the unphysical couplings that are …
Ground-state properties of generalized Heisenberg chains with composite spin.
1988
We consider in detail the ground-state properties of recently introduced generalized Heisenberg models which can have several spin operators at each site and which interpolate smoothly between Heisenberg chains of different spin lengths. We show that the mappings to field-theoretical models used to describe the critical properties of the Heisenberg model remain valid in the composite-spin model. In models which interpolate between the spin-(1/2 and the spin-1 behavior, these mappings predict an extended singlet phase around the isotropic antiferromagnetic point whenever the models move away from the spin-(1/2 point. Numerical calculations on finite chains seem to confirm the existence of th…
Electromagnetic properties of some positive parity dipole states described in terms of quadrupole and octupole interacting bosons
1990
The first three positive parity dipole states predicted by a phenomenological quadrupole-octupole boson Hamiltonian are extensively studied. Their coupling to the neighboring positive and negative parity states, due to the {ital M}1 and {ital E}{lambda} ({lambda}=1,3) transitions, respectively, are considered. Special attention is paid to the lowest two states which are of collective {ital M}1 nature. The signature which distinguishes them from the {ital M}1 state describing the scissors mode is also discussed.
