Towards a density functional description of liquid pH2

J. Navarro, F. Ancilotto, M. Barranco +1

A finite-temperature density functional approach to describe the properties of parahydrogen in the liquid-vapor coexistence region is presented. The first proposed functional is ze…

Absorption spectrum of Ca atoms attached to He nanodroplets

Alberto Hernando, Manuel Barranco, Marek Krośnicki +2

Within density functional theory, we have obtained the structure of He droplets doped with neutral calcium atoms. These results have been used, in conjunction with newly determ…

The structure and energetics of He and He nanodroplets doped with alkaline earth atoms

A. Hernando, R. Mayol, M. Pi +4

We present systematic results, based on density functional calculations, for the structure and energetics of He and He nanodroplets doped with alkaline earth atoms. We pred…

Condensation of helium in nanoscopic alkali wedges at zero temperature

E. S. Hernández, F. Ancilotto, M. Barranco +2

We present a complete calculation of the structure of liquid He confined to a concave nanoscopic wedge, as a function of the opening angle of the walls. This is achieved within…

Electron bubbles in liquid helium: infrared-absorption spectrum

Víctor Grau, Manuel Barranco, Ricardo Mayol +1

Within Density Functional Theory, we have calculated the energy of the transitions from the ground state to the first two excited states in the electron bubbles in liquid helium at…

Alkali Atoms Attached to He Nanodroplets

R. Mayol, F. Ancilotto, M. Barranco +3

We have experimentally studied the electronic excitation of Na atoms attached to He droplets by means of laser-induced fluorescence as well as beam depletion spectros…

K-Rb Fermi-Bose mixtures: vortical states and sag

D. M. Jezek, M. Barranco, M. Guilleumas +2

We study a confined mixture of bosons and fermions in the quantal degeneracy regime with attractive boson-fermion interaction. We discuss the effect that the presence of vortical s…

Probing vortices in 4He nanodroplets

Francesco Ancilotto, Manuel Barranco, Marti Pi

We present static and dynamical properties of linear vortices in 4He droplets obtained from Density Functional calculations. By comparing the adsorption properties of different ato…
