Calculations of positronium-atom scattering using a spherical cavity

A. R. Swann, G. F. Gribakin

Positronium (Ps) scattering by noble-gas atoms (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) is studied in the frozen-target approximation and with inclusion of the van der Waals interaction. Single-pa…

Effective radius of ground- and excited-state positronium in collisions with hard walls

R. Brown, Q. Prigent, A. R. Swann +1

We determine effective collisional radii of positronium (Ps) by considering Ps states in hard-wall spherical cavities. -spline basis sets of electron and positron states inside…

Dynamics of atomic spin-orbit-state wave packets produced by short-pulse laser photodetachment

S. M. K. Law, G. F. Gribakin

We analyse the experiment by Hultgren et al. [Phys. Rev. A {\bf 87}, 031404 (2013)] on orbital alignment and quantum beats in coherently excited atomic fine-structure manifolds pro…

Ps-atom scattering at low energies

I. I. Fabrikant, G. F. Gribakin

A pseudopotential for positronium-atom interaction, based on electron-atom and positron-atom phase shifts, is constructed, and the phase shifts for Ps-Kr and Ps-Ar scattering are c…

Similarity between positronium-atom and electron-atom scattering

I. I. Fabrikant, G. F. Gribakin

We employ the impulse approximation for description of positronium-atom scattering. Our analysis and calculations of Ps-Kr and Ps-Ar collisions provide theoretical explanation of t…

Relativistic coupled-cluster single-double calculations of positron-atom bound states

V. A. Dzuba, V. V. Flambaum, G. F. Gribakin +1

Relativistic coupled-cluster single-double approximation is used to calculate positron-atom bound states. The method is tested on closed-shell atoms such as Be, Mg, Ca, Zn, Cd, and…

Electron attachment to SF6 and lifetimes of SF6- negative ions

L. G. Gerchikov, G. F. Gribakin

We study the process of low-energy electron capture by the SF6 molecule. Our approach is based on the model of Gauyacq and Herzenberg [J. Phys. B 17, 1155 (1984)] in which the elec…

Positron-molecule annihilation by capture into vibrational Feshbach resonances of infrared-active modes

G. F. Gribakin, C. M. R. Lee

Enhanced positron annihilation on polyatomic molecules is a long-standing and complex problem. We report the results of calculations of resonant positron annihilation on methyl hal…

Application of the zero-range potential model to positron annihilation on molecules

G. F. Gribakin, C. M. R. Lee

In this paper we use a zero-range potential (ZRP) method to model positron interaction with molecules. This allows us to investigate the effect of molecular vibrations on positron-…

Electron recombination with multicharged ions via chaotic many-electron states

V. V. Flambaum, A. A. Gribakina, G. F. Gribakin +1

We show that a dense spectrum of chaotic multiply-excited eigenstates can play a major role in collision processes involving many-electron multicharged ions. A statistical theory b…

Statistics of electromagnetic transitions as a signature of chaos in many-electron atoms

V. V. Flambaum, A. A. Gribakina, G. F. Gribakin

Using a configuration interaction approach we study statistics of the dipole matrix elements (E1 amplitudes) between the 14 lower odd states with J=4 and 21st to 100th even states…

Correlations within Eigenvectors and Transition Amplitudes in the Two-Body Random Interaction Model

V. V. Flambaum, G. F. Gribakin, F. M. Izrailev

It is shown that the two-body character of the interaction in a many-body system gives rise to specific correlations between the components of compound states, even if this interac…
