Ultrafast Resonant Interatomic Coulombic Decay Induced by Quantum Fluid Dynamics

Marcel Drabbels, Andrew Daniel Bonnar Clark, Verónica Oliver Álvarez de Lara

Interatomic processes play a crucial role in weakly bound complexes exposed to ionizing radiation; therefore, gaining a thorough understanding of their efficiency is of fundamental importance. Here, we directly measure the timescale of interatomic Coulombi ...

A novel hydrogenic spectroscopic technique for inferring the role of plasma-molecule interaction on power and particle balance during detached conditions

Basil Duval, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing, Artur Perek

Detachment, an important mechanism for reducing target heat deposition, is achieved through reductions in power, particle and momentum; which are induced through plasma-atom and plasma-molecule interactions. Experimental research in how those reactions pre ...

The S-matrix Bootstrap Reloaded

Aditya Hebbar

Quantum field theories (QFTs) are the backbone upon which the edifice of modern physics is built. In this thesis we explore the S-matrix bootstrap which is a non-perturbative method that constrains the vast space of QFTs by using consistency conditions tha ...

Ultrafast Intersystem Crossing and Structural Dynamics of [Pt(ppy)(mu-(t)Bu(2)pz)](2)

Majed Chergui, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Intersystem crossing (ISC) rates of transition-metal complexes are determined by the complex interplay of a molecule's electronic and structural dynamics. To broaden our understanding of these key factors, we investigate the case of the prototypical d(8)-d ...

Direct Observation of Aggregation-Induced Emission Mechanism

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Antonio Prlj, Kun-Han Lin

The mechanism of aggregation-induced emission, which overcomes the common aggregation-caused quenching problem in organic optoelectronics, is revealed by monitoring the real time structural evolution and dynamics of electronic excited state with frequency ...

Superexchange mechanism and quantum many body excitations in the archetypal di-Cu oxo-bridge

Cédric Weber, Edward Baxter Linscott

The hemocyanin protein binds and transports molecular oxygen via two copper atoms at its core. The singlet state of the Cu2O2 core is thought to be stabilised by a superexchange pathway, but detailed in situ computational analysis is complicated by the mul ...

Optical absorption properties of metal-organic frameworks: solid stateversusmolecular perspective

Berend Smit, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Ivano Tavernelli, Maria Fumanal Quintana

The vast chemical space of metal and ligand combinations in Transition Metal Complexes (TMCs) gives rise to a rich variety of electronic excited states with local and non-local character such as intra-ligand (IL), metal-centered (MC), metal-to-ligand (MLCT ...

Dynamical collapse of cylindrical symmetric Dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates

Luigi Forcella

We study the formation of singularities for cylindrical symmetric solutions to the Gross-Pitaevskii equation describing a Dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate. We prove that solutions arising from initial data with energy below the energy of the Ground State a ...

Time-resolved formation of excited atomic and molecular states in XUV-induced nanoplasmas in ammonia clusters

Marcel Drabbels, Andrew Daniel Bonnar Clark, Verónica Oliver Álvarez de Lara

High intensity XUV radiation from a free-electron laser (FEL) was used to create a nanoplasma inside ammonia clusters with the intent of studying the resulting electron-ion interactions and their interplay with plasma evolution. In a plasma-like state, ele ...

Propagation of fluid driven fractures in transversely isotropic material

Fatima-Ezzahra Moukhtari

The propagation of fluid driven fractures is used in a number of industrial applications (well stimulation of unconventional reservoirs, development of deep geothermal systems) but also occurs naturally (magmatic dyke intrusion). While the mechanics of hyd ...
