Long-range interactions in the quantum many-body problem in one dimension: Ground state

Long-range many-body polyelectrolyte bridging interactions.

We investigate polyelectrolyte bridging interactions mediated by charged, flexible, polyelectrolyte chains between fixed cylindrical macroions of opposite charge in a two-dimensional hexagonal crystalline array. We show that in the asymptotic regime of small macroion density, the polyelectrolyte-mediated attraction is long range, falling off approximately linearly with the macroion array densit...

Quantum mechanical proton range in human body

Introduction: Proton therapy delivers radiation to tumor tissue in a much more confined way than conventional photon therapy thus allowing the radiation oncologist to use a greater dose while still minimizing side.   Materials and Methods: protons release most of their energy within the tumor region. As a result, the treating physician can potentially give an...

Many-body theory of synchronization by long-range interactions.

Synchronization of coupled oscillators on a d-dimensional lattice with the power-law coupling G(r) = g0/rα and randomly distributed intrinsic frequency is analyzed. A systematic perturbation theory is developed to calculate the order parameter profile and correlation functions in powers of ϵ = α/d-1. For α ≤ d, the system exhibits a sharp synchronization transition as described by the conventio...
