In defence of the Ehrenfest mean-field molecular dynamics
Vladimir U. Nazarov
Re-visiting the problem of the coupled electronic--nuclear motion, we prove that the so called `mean-field' Ehrenfest picture is an exact theory, rather than an approximation, in t…
Many-body interactions in the dielectric theory of stopping power of solids for classical and quantum projectiles
Vladimir U. Nazarov, Vyacheslav M. Silkin
We take account of the many-body dynamic interactions by including the wave-vector and frequency-dependent exchange and correlations (xc) kernel $f_{xc}(\qv,ω)$ in the framework of…
Exact-factorization framework for electron-nuclear dynamics in electromagnetic fields
Vladimir U. Nazarov, E. K. U. Gross
The Exact Factorization (EF) theory aims at the separation of the nuclear and electronic degrees of freedom in the many-body (MB) quantum mechanical problem. Being formally equival…
Stopping power of electron liquid for slow quantum projectiles
Vladimir U. Nazarov, E. K. U. Gross
We revisit the problem of deceleration of a charge moving in a medium. Going beyond the traditional approach, which relies on Ehrenfest dynamics, we treat the projectile fully quan…
Viscous AC current-driven nanomotors
Vladimir U. Nazarov, Tchavdar N. Todorov, E. K. U. Gross
The recent discovery that electrons in nano-scale conductors can act like a highly viscous liquid has triggered a surge of research activities investigating consequences of this su…
Exchange kernel of electron liquid from the variational principle of McLachlan
Vladimir U. Nazarov, Vyacheslav M. Silkin
By minimizing, in the norm, the difference between the left- and the right-hand sides of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, the variational principle of McLachlan (McLV…
Viscous current-induced forces
Vladimir U. Nazarov, Tchavdar N. Todorov, E. K. U. Gross
We study the motion (translational, vibrational, and rotational) of a diatomic impurity immersed in an electron liquid and exposed to electronic current. An approach based on the l…
Role of the kinematics of probing electrons in electron energy-loss spectroscopy of solid surfaces
V. U. Nazarov, V. M. Silkin, E. E. Krasovskii
Inelastic scattering of electrons incident on a solid surface is determined by the two properties: (i) electronic response of the target system and (ii) the detailed quantum-mechan…
Energy bands in graphene: Comparison between the tight-binding model and {\it ab initio} calculations
E. Kogan, V. U. Nazarov, V. M. Silkin +1
We compare the classification of the electron bands in graphene, obtained by group theory algebra in the framework of tight-binding model (TBM), with that calculated in the density…
Coupled plasmon - phonon excitations in extrinsic monolayer graphene
V. U. Nazarov, F. Alharbi, T. S. Fisher +1
The existence of an acoustic plasmon in extrinsic (doped or gated) monolayer graphene was found recently in an {\it ab initio} calculation with the frozen lattice [M. Pisarra {\it…
