The second order nonlinear polarizability and dipole moment changes upon light excitation of light-adapted bacteriorhodopsin (BR), dark-adapted BR, blue membrane, and acid purple membrane have been measured by second harmonic generation. Our results indicate that the dipole moment changes of the retinal chromophore, delta mu, are very sensitive to both the chromophore structure and protein/chro...

The photoabsorption cross sections of HCl and DCl are calculated using the reflection principle and time dependent wavepacket propagation methods. The absorption cross sections are compared to high precision experimental absorption cross sections from the literature and the different results given by the methods are discussed. The results of the calculations emphasize the important roles that p...

In this paper, the interaction between an oscillating dipole moment and a Silver nanoparticle has been studied. Our calculations are based on Mie scattering theory and discrete dipole approximation(DDA) method.At first, the resonance frequency due to excitingthe localized surface plasmons has been obtained using Mie scattering theory and then by exciting a dipole moment in theclose proximity of...

this research has been carried out to study and find a rather general description for a lone pairorbital in molecules. since the orbital parameters must be manageable in advance, and correctgeometry of the molecule (bond lengths) is depend on the appropriate lone pair description; thefsgo method including optimization has been used to obtain orbital parameters and energy. theproposed models for...

The littlest Higgs model with T-parity, which is called LHT model, predicts the existence of the new particles, such as heavy top quark, heavy gauge bosons, and mirror fermions. We calculate the one-loop contributions of these new particles to the top quark chromomagnetic dipole moment (CMDM) ∆K. We find that the contribution of the LHT model is one order of magnitude smaller than the standard ...

We present a simple analysis that allows us to extract the leading mass dependence of the dipole moment of matter fermions that might be induced by new physics. We present explicit results for the supersymmetric model with broken R-parity as an illustration. We show that the extra contributions to the electric dipole moment(edm) of fermions from Rp / interactions can occur only at two loop leve...

The electric dipole moments of (H2O)nDCl (n=3-9) clusters have been measured by the beam-deflection method. Reflecting the (dynamical) charge distribution within the system, the dipole moment contributes information about the microscopic structure of nanoscale solvation. The addition of a DCl molecule to a water cluster results in a strongly enhanced susceptibility. There is evidence for a noti...

Plasmonic toroidal resonance has attracted growing interests because of its low loss electromagnetic properties and potential high sensitive nanophotonic applications. However, the realization in a metamaterial requires three-dimensional complicated structural design so far. In this paper, we design a simple metal-dielectric-metal (MIM) sandwich nanostructure, which exhibits a strong toroidal d...

In an earlier paper’ [hereafter referred to as I], de Pablo et al. reported Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo (GEMC) simulations of SPC water with long-range intermolecular interactions computed using the Ewald summation method. The coexistence curve of SPC water was obtained from 25 to 300 “C. At each temperature simulated, the liquid densities obtained in the simulation were consistently lower than ...
