Sealing is at the Origin of Rubber Slipping on Wet Roads
B. N. J. Persson, U. Tartaglino, O. Albohr +1
Loss of braking power and rubber skidding on a wet road is still an open physics problem, since neither the hydrodynamical effects nor the loss of surface adhesion that are sometim…
Effect of electron correlations in Pd, Ni, and Co monowires
Malgorzata Wierzbowska, Anna Delin, Erio Tosatti
We investigated the effect of mean-field electron correlations on the band electronic structure of Co, Ni, and Pd ultra-thin monatomic nanowires, at the breaking point, by means of…
Electronic friction and liquid-flow-induced voltage in nanotubes
B. N. J. Persson, U. Tartaglino, E. Tosatti +1
A recent exciting experiment by Ghosh et al. reported that the flow of an ion-containing liquid such as water through bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes induces a voltage in…
Strong Correlations in Electron Doped Phthalocyanine Conductors Near Half Filling
Erio Tosatti, Michele Fabrizio, Jaroslav Tobik +1
We propose that electron doped nontransition metal-phthalocyanines (MPc) like ZnPc and MgPc, similar to those very recently reported, should constitute novel strongly correlated me…
Multiplet Structures of Charged Fullerenes
Malgorzata Wierzbowska, Martin Lueders, Erio Tosatti
We calculated multiplet splittings for positively and negatively charged fullerene ions within the CAS SCF method, and extracted model parameters for the intramolecular Hamiltonian…
Ballistic conductance of magnetic Co and Ni nanowires with ultrasoft pseudo-potentials
A. Smogunov, A. Dal Corso, E. Tosatti
The scattering-based approach for calculating the ballistic conductance of open quantum systems is generalized to deal with magnetic transition metals as described by ultrasoft pse…
