Atomic Physics

Atomic physics is the field of physics that studies atoms as an isolated system of electrons and an atomic nucleus. It is primarily concerned with the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus and the processes by which these arrangements change.Selected Contents: Study of Hadronic Event Shape in Flavour Tagged Events in e+e- Annihilation at = 197 GeV; He2+- He Charge Transfer Collisions Using a 27-State Close-Coupled Calculation with a Diabatic Molecular Basis; Magnetic Modulation in Mechanical Alloyed Cr1.4Fe0.6O3 Oxide; Effect of Biased Noise Fluctuations on the Output Radiation of Coherent Beat Laser; Evolution of Structure of SiO2 Nanoparticles upon Cooling from the Melt; Ab-Initio Calculations of Spin Tunneling Through an Indirect Barrier; Electronic Structure, Linear, Nonlinear Optical Susceptibilities and Birefringence of Cuinx2 (X = S, Se, Te) Chalcopyrite-Structure Compounds; Synthesis, Infra-Red, Raman, NMR and Structural Characterization by X-ray Diffraction of [C12H17N2]2CdCl4 and [C6H10N2]2Cd3Cl10 Compounds; Zone Center Phonons of the Orthorhombic RMnO3 (R = Pr, Eu, Tb, Dy, Ho) Perovskites; Optical Second Harmonic Generation in Yttrium Aluminium Borate Single Crystals (Theoretical Simulation and Experiment); The Multiple Faces of Self-Assembled Lipidic Systems; On the Electrostatic Component of Protein-Protein Binding Free Energy; Plasma Response to Lithium-Coated Plasma-Facing Components in the National Spherical Torus Experiment; Computational Fluid Dynamics Analyses on Very High Temperature Reactor Air Ingress; Investigation of Resistive Wall Mode Stabilization Physics in High-Beta Plasmas Using Applied Non-Axisymmetric Fields in NSTX; Non-Axisymmetric Shaping of Tokamaks Preserving Quasi-Axisymmetry; Index
