Fermi’S Golden Rule

The nonequilibrium Fermi’s golden rule (NE-FGR) describes the time-dependent rate coefficient for electronic transitions, when the nuclear degrees of freedom start out in a <i>nonequilibrium</i> state. In this letter, the linearized semiclassical (LSC) approximation of the NE-FGR is used to calculate the photoinduced charge transfer rates in the carotenoid-porphyrin-C<sub>60</sub> molecular triad dissolved in explicit tetrahydrofuran. The initial nonequilibrium state corresponds to impulsive photoexcitation from the equilibrated ground-state to the ππ* state, and the porphyrin-to-C<sub>60</sub> and the carotenoid-to-C<sub>60</sub> charge transfer rates are calculated. Our results show that accounting for the nonequilibrium nature of the initial state significantly enhances the transition rate of the porphyrin-to-C<sub>60</sub> CT process. We also derive the instantaneous Marcus theory (IMT) from LSC NE-FGR, which casts the CT rate coefficients in terms of a Marcus-like expression, with explicitly time-dependent reorganization energy and reaction free energy. IMT is found to reproduce the CT rates in the system under consideration remarkably well.

A small subsystem model was developed to simulate the major nitrogen flow pathways in an unsaturated soil treated with ammonium sulphate. A nonlinear Freundlich equilibrium model and a Langmuir kinetic model were used to describe mathematically the adsorption–desorption of soluble NH4+ to the exchangeable and clay-fixed phases, respectively. Time dependent, microbial mediated first-order kinetic models were used to quantify the ammonification and nitrification processes. The subsystem model was then used as a research tool to derive ammonification and nitrification rate coefficients for a preceding incubation experiment conducted using different soil moisture contents and temperatures. The model yields reasonably good fits to the observed data. A subsequent regression analysis relating the coefficients to temperature and moisture pointed out the importance of the temperature–water content interaction term in quantifying microbial mediated processes.

In this contribution, we discuss quantum effects on relic gravitons described by the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) spacetime background by reducing the problem to that of a generalized time-dependent harmonic oscillator, and find the corresponding Schrödinger states with the help of the dynamical invariant method. Then, by considering a quadratic time-dependent invariant operator, we show that we can obtain the geometric phases and squeezed quantum states for this system. Furthermore, we also show that we can construct Gaussian wave packet states by considering a linear time-dependent invariant operator. In both cases, we also discuss the uncertainty product for each mode of the quantized field.
