It is shown that the combined effect of resistivity, viscosity, and thermal conductivity leads to large-scale stationary convection. This is done for a cylindrical current-carrying plasma in a shearless magnetic field. ...

Optical vortices and lattices of these are attracting the attention of the scientific community because of their applications in various fields of optical processing, communications, enhanced imaging systems, and bio-inspired ...

The negative ions of the alkaline-earth-metal atoms (Be to Ba) have been studied by means of a pseudopotential model together with configuration- interaction and multiconfiguration self-consistent-field techniques. Only ...

We describe cross focusing in a four-level atomic medium under electromagnetically induced transparency. We show that due to the giant Kerr nonlinearity experienced by the atoms, cross focusing between weak signal and probe ...

External field effects are introduced in both charge and orbital control terms of Klopman–Salem formalism for the study of chemical reactivity in condensed phase. An analytical expression is derived for the change of the ...

Various correlation energy density functionals have been used to evaluate the electron affinities of the alkaline-earth atoms. A related approach based on polarization potentials was also tested. The results give evidence ...

In this work, a way to approximate the correlation energy functional starting from a model correlation factor is shown. The problem is addressed by using formally exact properties of the second‐order density matrix and ...

The introduction of local dielectric effects within the SCF theory of continuum solvent effects representation is examined at a semiempirical level. The formalism is developed in the frame of the reaction field theory ...
