Monte Carlo investigation of a model for a three-dimensional orientational glass with short-range gaussian interaction

1987

The analogue of the Edwards-Anderson model for isotropic vector spin glasses, but taking quadrupoles instead of unit vectors at each lattice site of the considered simple cubic lattice, is studied as a model for an orientational glass. We study both the case where the quadrupole moment can orient in a three-dimensional space (m=3) and the case where the orientation is restricted to a plane (m=2), but otherwise the Hamiltonian is fully isotropic. ℋ= $$ - \sum\limits_{\left\langle {i,j} \right\rangle } {J_{ij} } \left[ {\left( {\sum\limits_{\mu = 1}^m {S_i^\mu S_j^\mu } } \right)^2 - \frac{1}{m}} \right]$$ , whereJ ij is a random gaussian interaction between nearest neighbors, andS i μ the μ'…

Monte Carlo study of the order-parameter distribution in the four-dimensional Ising spin glass

1990

We investigate the order-parameter distribution P(q) of the Ising spin glass with nearest-neighbor interactions in four dimensions using Monte Carlo simulations on lattices of linear dimension up to L=6. We find that, below the transition temperature ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$, the weight at small q seems to saturate to a nonzero value as the size increases, similar to the infinite-range Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. We discuss our results in the light of recent theoretical predictions for the nature of the spin-glass phase.

Electric Field Control of Spin States in Trigonal Two-Electron Quantum Dot Arrays and Mixed-Valence Molecules: II. Vibronic Problem

2018

In this article, the vibronic model for an electric field switchable mixed-valence trimer containing two delocalized electrons or holes is proposed and examined. The role of the vibronic coupling on the electric field effects is analyzed by means of the semiclassical adiabatic approach and, alternatively, with the aid of the numerical analysis of the Schrodinger equation with due allowance for the kinetic energy of the ions (dynamic problem). The adiabatic potential landscapes have been calculated by taking into account the influence of the electric field. As the adiabatic approximation has a limited frame of validity, the study of the electric field effects has also been performed within m…

Magnetic excitations in polyoxometalate tetrameric clusters

1997

Abstract The metal-oxide clusters with formula [M4(D2O)2(PW9O34)2]10− which contain a tetrameric magnetic cluster M4O16 provide an ideal series for the study of magnetic exchange interactions in polymetallic molecular clusters. To get a more direct information on the splitting of the spin states caused by the exchange interactions we have performed inelastic neutron scattering measurements on the Co, Mn and Ni clusters. Magnetic excitations have been observed in the range 0.5–6 meV. A tentative interpretation of these data from a Heisenberg exchange Hamiltonian and a single ion zero-field splitting is presented for Ni cluster.

Exact dynamics of XX central spin models

2009

The dynamical behavior of a star network of spins, wherein each of N decoupled spins interact with a central spin through non uniform Heisenberg XX interaction is exactly studied. The time-dependent Schrodinger equation of the spin system model is solved starting from an arbitrary initial state. The resulting solution is analyzed and briefly discussed.

Lévy distributions and disorder in excitonic spectra.

2020

We study analytically the spectrum of excitons in disordered semiconductors like transition metal dichalcogenides, which are important for photovoltaic and spintronic applications. We show that ambient disorder exerts a strong influence on the exciton spectra. For example, in such a case, the wellknown degeneracy of the hydrogenic problem (related to Runge–Lenz vector conservation) is lifted so that the exciton energy starts to depend on both the principal quantum number n and orbital l. We model the disorder phenomenologically substituting the ordinary Laplacian in the corresponding Schro¨dinger equation by the fractional one with Le´vy index m, characterizing the degree of disorder. Our v…

Real lattices modelled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and its generalizations

2006

We present the analysis of two dimerized lattices : a bi-inductance electrical network with macroscopic wave modes, an antiferromagnetic chain whith microscopic spin waves. Using the multiple scale technique of reductive perturbation we show that the original discrete equations of motion can be reduced to a Nonlinear Schrodinger equation with complex coefficients for the first system and two coupled Nonlinear Schrodinger equations for the second system. The possible solutions of these equations are discussed in relation with our numerical simulations and real experiments.

Making Mathematics in an Oral Culture: Göttingen in the Era of Klein and Hilbert

2004

This essay takes a close look at specially selected features of the Göttingen mathematical culture during the period 1895–1920. Drawing heavily on personal accounts and archival resources, it describes the changing roles played by Felix Klein and David Hilbert, as Göttingen's two senior mathematicians, within a fast-growing community that attracted an impressive number of young talents. Within the course of these twenty-five years Göttingen exerted a profound impact on mathematics and physics throughout the world. Many factors contributed to the creation of a special atmosphere that served as a model for several other important centers for mathematical research. Göttingen exemplified a dyna…

Dynamical Casimir-Polder energy between an excited- and a ground-state atom.

2004

We consider the Casimir-Polder interaction between two atoms, one in the ground state and the other in its excited state. The interaction is time-dependent for this system, because of the dynamical self-dressing and the spontaneous decay of the excited atom. We calculate the dynamical Casimir-Polder potential between the two atoms using an effective Hamiltonian approach. The results obtained and their physical meaning are discussed and compared with previous results based on a time-independent approach which uses a non-normalizable dressed state for the excited atom.

Correlations between Rabi oscillations and atomic translational dynamics

1998

We analyze some aspects of the internal and translational dynamics of a two-level atom interacting with a resonant standing wave of an ideal cavity. We show that the cavity vacuum field can split the incoming wave packet of the excited two-level atom into two parts, whose scalar product in the Hilbert space determines the behavior of the Rabi oscillations. The state of the whole system is derived and allows us to study the correlations between the internal and the translational atomic dynamics. We find that these correlations become negligible when the two parts are sufficiently away from each other in the space.
