Mechanical switching of ferro-electric rubber

J. M. Adams, M. Warner

At the A to C transition, smectic elastomers have recently been observed to undergo $\sim$ 35% spontaneous shear strains. We first explicitly describe how strains of up to twice thi…

Silicon as a model ion trap: time domain measurements of donor Rydberg states

N Q Vinh, P T Greenland, K Litvinenko +9

One of the great successes of quantum physics is the description of the long-lived Rydberg states of atoms and ions. The Bohr model is equally applicable to donor impurity atoms in…

Dissipative quantum dynamics in low-energy collisions of complex nuclei

Alexis Diaz-Torres, David Hinde, Mahananda Dasgupta +2

Model calculations that include the effects of irreversible, environmental couplings on top of a coupled-channels dynamical description of the collision of two complex nuclei are p…

Mass Distributions Beyond TDHF

J. M. A. Broomfield, P. D. Stevenson

The mass distributions for giant dipole resonances in 32S and 132Sn decaying through particle emission and for deep-inelastic collisions between 16O nuclei have been investigated b…

Coupled-Channels Approach for Dissipative Quantum Dynamics in Near-Barrier Collisions

Alexis Diaz-Torres, David Hinde, Mahananda Dasgupta +2

A novel quantum dynamical model based on the dissipative quantum dynamics of open quantum systems is presented. It allows the treatment of both deep-inelastic processes and quantum…

The $K^{-} p \to Σ^{0} π^{0}$ reaction at low energies in a chiral quark model

Xian-Hui Zhong, Qiang Zhao

A chiral quark-model approach is extended to the study of the $K ˉ N$ scattering at low energies. The process of $K^{-} p \to Σ^{0} π^{0}$ at $P_{K} ≲ 800$ MeV/c (i.e. the center mas…
