Quantum annealing (QA) is one of the ways finding ground states problem Hamiltonians. We initially apply transverse fields corresponding to a driver Hamiltonian and adiabatically change obtain target state. However, for some purposes such as quantum chemistry, both excited are needed understand properties molecules. Here, we describe scheme based on QA search arbitrary By splitting degeneracy w...

Allyl phenyl ether has an absorption band in the ultraviolet region (l o 400 nm); therefore, irradiation with few-optical-cycle ultraviolet pulses (l = 360–440 nm) causes a transition to the ultraviolet band, which leads to an electronic state and a photo-Claisen rearrangement (radical reaction) in the electronic excited state. However, the reaction scheme of allyl phenyl ether under irradiatio...

The Correlated Basis Function theory (CBF) provides a theoretical framework to treat on the same ground mean–field and short–range correlations. We present, in this report, some recent results obtained using the CBF to describe the ground state properties of finite nuclear systems. Furthermore we show some results for the excited state obtained with a simplified model based on the CBF theory

We identify some hidden symmetries of Chern-Simons theories, such as appear in the e ective theory for quantized Hall states. This allows us to determine which lling fractions admit spin-singlet quantum Hall states. Our results shed some light on states already observed at = 2=3, and transitions between them. We identify SU(2), or higher, symmetries of many additional states { including spinpol...

This work reports room temperature Davydov splitting in triplet transitions Tn ← T1 of tetracene single crystals. This was observed through femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy with polarized ‖ b and ⊥ b probing on the (ab) face of the 300 nm thick crystal. A Davydov splitting of 0.04 eV (286 cm−1) was obtained on an excited state absorption signal ascribed to triplet excitons in Birec...

We have investigated the ground and excited state properties of two electron atoms using our Fixed-Phase method, including an analysis of exchange and correlation. We present results of our calculations with a trial phase which corresponds to the atomic Hartree-Fock one.

We report a study of the b decay of Ga, whose dominant branch is a superallowed 01→01 transition to the ground state of Zn. We find the total half-life to be 115.8460.25 ms. This is the first time that the Ga half-life has been measured with a purified source. We find that (0.12060.021)% of the b decays are followed by g cascades that pass through the Zn 2 first excited state at 0.954 MeV. The ...

The effect of using smeared sink operators on the hadron spectrum is studied for quenched twisted mass lattice QCD with up, down, and strange quarks. Gaussian smearing is used for quark fields, and stout link smearing for gauge fields. Smeared correlators are found to be dominated by the ground state with a small contribution from excited states, leading to an improved determination of some gro...

The 6Li(t , 3He)6He charge-exchange reaction leading to the weakly-bound nucleus 6He has been studied at 336 MeV. Beyond the strong peaks for the known ground state (Jπ = 0+) and first excited state (Jπ = 2+, Ex = 1.8 MeV), a broad asymmetric structure around Ex ∼ 5 MeV has been observed. The angular distribution of this structure exhibits the dominance of a1L= 1 transition, indicating the exis...
