Norman G., Saitov I.
A new idea is developed that the fluid–fluid phase transition in warm dense hydrogen is related to the partial ionization of molecular hydrogen H2 with formation of molecular ions H2+ and H3+ . Conventional ab initio quantum modeling is applied. Proton pair correlation functions (PCF) obtained are used for the nonconventional diagnostics of the phase transition and elucidation of its nature for temperatures 700-1500 K. Short- and longrange changes of PCF’s are studied. H2 molecules ionization and molecular ions H2+ and H3+ appearance is revealed. The validity of the soft sphere model is tested for the long-range order.

A fast simulation of the detector response is a vital task in high-energy physics (HEP). Traditional Monte-Carlo methods form the backbone of modern particle physics simulation software but are computationally expensive. We present a machine-learning-based approach to fast simulation of the Focusing Aerogel Ring Imaging Cherenkov (FARICH) detector response. Given a particle track and momentum, ...

Radiation from rotational transitions of CO molecules in distant galaxies creates a chaotic background with an intensity reaching 1000 Jy/sr at a wavelength of approximately 1 mm. This background will pose a serious problem, when measuring spectral distortions of the cosmic microwave background, in particular, the mu-distortion, which presumably has an intensity of less than ...

This work presents a comprehensive investigation into the temperature-dependent thermally stimulated conductivity and photoconductivity of vacuum-annealed thin films based on core–shell CdSe/CdS nanoplatelets passivated with oleic acid ligands. Controlled thermal annealing under vacuum conditions leads to a substantial increase in both dark and photoinduced conductivity, which is primarily attributed to partial desorption of the ligands. ...
