Reduced scaling in electronic structure calculations using Cholesky decompositions
2003
The small numerical rank of the two-electron integral matrix for large molecular systems and large basis sets was demonstrated. Though, the current implementation still requires some improvements on the calculations done in the inner most loop of the decomposition do not exploit the parsity in the Cholesky vectors. With respect to the practical applicability of the presented method an efficient approach to geometrical derivatives was imperative. Such an approach was obtained including certain derivative product functions and decomposing an expanded integral matrix.
Spin texture of time-reversal symmetry invariant surface states on W(110)
2016
AbstractWe find in the case of W(110) previously overlooked anomalous surface states having their spin locked at right angle to their momentum using spin-resolved momentum microscopy. In addition to the well known Dirac-like surface state with Rashba spin texture near the "Equation missing"-point, we observe a tilted Dirac cone with circularly shaped cross section and a Dirac crossing at 0.28 × "Equation missing" "Equation missing" within the projected bulk band gap of tungsten. This state has eye-catching similarities to the spin-locked surface state of a topological insulator. The experiments are fortified by a one-step photoemission calculation in its density-matrix formulation.
Bulk-free topological insulator Bi 2 Se 3 nanoribbons with magnetotransport signatures of Dirac surface states
2018
Many applications for topological insulators (TIs) as well as new phenomena require devices with reduced dimensions. While much progress has been made to realize thin films of TIs with low bulk carrier density, nanostructures have not yet been reported with similar properties, despite the fact that size confinement should help reduce contributions from bulk carriers. Here we demonstrate that Bi2Se3 nanoribbons, grown by a simple catalyst-free physical-vapour deposition, have inherently low bulk carrier densities, and can be further made bulk-free by size confinement, thus revealing the high mobility topological surface states. Magneto transport and Hall conductance measurements, in single n…
First observation of trapped high-field seeking ultracold neutron spin states
2011
Ultracold neutrons were stored in a volume, using a magnetic dipole field shutter. Radial confinement was provided by material walls. Low-field seeking neutrons were axially confined above the magnetic field. High-field seeking neutrons are trapped inside the magnetic field. They can systematically shift the measured neutron lifetime to lower values in experiments with magnetic confinement. ISSN:0370-2693 ISSN:0031-9163 ISSN:1873-2445
Observation of a resonant structure in e+e− → ωη and another in e+e− → ωπ0 at center-of-mass energies between 2.00 and 3.08 GeV
2021
Abstract Born cross sections for the processes e + e − → ω η and e + e − → ω π 0 have been determined for center-of-mass energies between 2.00 and 3.08 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The results obtained in this work are consistent with previous measurements but with improved precision. Two resonant structures are observed. In the e + e − → ω η cross sections, a resonance with a mass of ( 2176 ± 24 ± 3 ) MeV / c 2 and a width of ( 89 ± 50 ± 5 ) MeV is observed with a significance of 6.2σ. Its properties are consistent with the ϕ ( 2170 ) . In the e + e − → ω π 0 cross sections, a resonance denoted Y ( 2040 ) is observed with a significance of more than 10σ. Its mass an…
Triaxial shape with rotation around the longest principal axis inGd142
2008
The cranking model is used to describe rotational bands. We investigate the approach of using diabatic configurations and minimizing the particle-number projected energy in a mesh of both lambda, Delta and deformation parameters. We use the method to interpret recent experimental data in Gd-142 and conclude that for the highest spin states observed (I approximate to 30), the nucleus is triaxial and builds spin by rotating around the classically unfavored longest axis.
Decay properties of very-high-spin states in transitional Er nuclei aroundA=154
1986
Theγ ray continuum structures of the transitional Er isotopes withA∼154 are studied using the reaction74Ge(84Kr,xn)158−xEr atElab=340 MeV. The measurements include energy spectra, total energies, multiplicities, angular distributions and lifetimes using the DSAM method. The analysis of data confirms the previously observed two-bump structure of the continuum radiation. A meticulous subtraction of discrete contributions proves the persistence of the low-energy bump even at high spins, i.e.I>40ħ. The angular-distribution measurements assign predominant dipole structure to the bump atEγ=0.65 MeV, whereas the bump atEγ=1.3 MeV is of almost pure quadrupole character at high spins. The lifetime m…
Constraints on anomalous QGC's in $e^{+}e^{-}$ interactions from 183 to 209 GeV
2004
The acoplanar photon pairs produced in the reaction e+ e- --> nu nubar gamma gamma are analysed in the 700 inverse nanobarns of data collected by the ALEPH detector at centre-of-mass energies between 183 and 209 GeV. No deviation from the Standard Model predictions is seen in any of the distributions examined. The resulting 95% C.L. limits set on the anomalous QGC's, az_0, az_c, aw_0 and aw_c, are -0.012 GeV**-2 < az_0/Lambda**2 < +0.019 GeV**-2, -0.041 GeV**-2 < az_c/Lambda**2 < +0.044 GeV**-2, -0.060 GeV**-2 < aw_0/Lambda**2 < +0.055 GeV**-2, -0.099 GeV**-2 < aw_c/Lambda**2 < +0.093 GeV**-2, where Lambda is the energy scale of the new Physics responsible for the anomalous couplings.
In-beam study of high-spin states in199,200,201Po and systematical features of Z=84 polonium isotopes
1985
Excited states in199,200,201Po were populated in the reactions12C+194Pt and12C+195Pt. The subsequentγ-radiation was studied using conventional in-beam spectroscopic methods. States with spins up to (29/2), 18 and ≧35/2ħ, respectively, were populated in the three nuclides. Three isomeric states with the following half-lives were observed in200Po:T1/2(8+)=90(15) ns,T1/2(11−)=120(20) ns andT1/2(12+)=267(4) ns. The structure of the excited states was interpreted within the framework of the spherical shell model. The three isomers are suggested to be two-quasiparticle states with configurationsπ(h22)8J, π(h9i13/2)11- and v(i1 3/2−2)12+. A self-consistent Hartree-Fock calculation was performed to…
Evidence for isovector neutron-proton pairing from high-spin states inN=Z74Rb
2003
High-spin states in the odd-odd N=Z nucleus Rb-74(37)37 were studied using the Ca-40(Ca-40,alphanp) reaction. A previously observed odd-spin T=0 band has been extended to I-pi=(31(+)) and an even-spin T=0 band has been observed for the first time to I-pi=(22(+)); both have a pi(g(9/2))circle timesnu(g(9/2)) structure. A strongly coupled low-spin T=0,K=3 band has been interpreted as being based upon a pi[312]3/2 circle timesnu[312]3/2 configuration. Cranked relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov calculations, which are corrected for the t=1 np-pair field by restoring isospin symmetry, reproduce the observed spectrum. These new results provide evidence for the existence of an isovector pair field th…
