The 3D Kasteleyn transition in dipolar spin ice: a numerical study with the Conserved Monopoles Algorithm

M. L. Baez, R. A. Borzi

We study the three-dimensional Kasteleyn transition in both nearest neighbours and dipolar spin ice models using an algorithm that conserves the number of excitations. We first lim…

Perturbation theory for short-range weakly-attractive potentials in one dimension

Paolo Amore, Francisco M. Fernández

We have obtained the perturbative expressions up to sixth order for the energy of the bound state in a one dimensional, arbitrarily weak, short range finite well, applying a method…

Optical and Electrical Properties of Nanostructured Metallic Electrical Contacts

Victor J. Toranzos, Guillermo P. Ortiz, W. Luis Mochán +1

We study the optical and electrical properties of silver films with a graded thickness obtained through metallic evaporation in vacuum on a tilted substrate to evaluate their use a…

Fluctuation-induced forces between rings threaded around a polymer chain under tension

F. M. Gilles, R. Llubaroff, C. Pastorino

We characterize the fluctuation properties of a polymer chain under external tension and the fluctuation-induced forces between two ring molecules threaded around the chain. The pr…

Local Quantum Thermometry using Unruh-De Witt detectors

Sandra Robles, Javier Rodriguez-Laguna

We propose an operational definition for the local temperature of a quantum field employing Unruh-DeWitt detectors, as used in the study of the Unruh and Hawking effects. With this…

Response to "Comment on Static correlations functions and domain walls in glass-forming liquids: The case of a sandwich geometry" [J. Chem. Phys. 144, 227101 (2016)]

Giacomo Gradenigo, Roberto Trozzo, Andrea Cavagna +1

The point-to-set correlation function has proved to be a very valuable tool to probe structural correlations in disordered systems, but more than that, its detailed behavior has be…

On two different kinds of resonances in one-dimensional quantum-mechanical models

Francisco M. Fernández, Javier Garcia

We apply the Riccati-Padé method and the Rayleigh-Ritz method with complex rotation to the study of the resonances of a one-dimensional well with two barriers. The model exhibits t…

On the construction of pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians by means of similarity transformations

Francisco M. Fernández

We generalize a recently proposed approach for the construction of pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians with real spectra. Present technique is based on a simple and straightforward simil…

Role of Rotations on Surface Diffusion of Water Trimers on Pd\{111\}

Victor A. Ranea, P. L. de Andres

Diffusion barriers for a cluster of three water molecules on Pd(111) have been estimated from ab-initio Density Functional Theory. A model for the diffusion of the trimer based in…

Improved power-series method for confined one-dimensional quantum-mechanical problems

Francisco M. Fernández

We propose two improvements to the well-known power series method for confined one-dimensional quantum-mechanical problems. They consist of the addition of a variational step were…
