<div> <div> <div> <p>Many-body potential energy functions (PEFs) based on the TTM-nrg and MB-nrg theoretical/computational frameworks are developed from coupled cluster reference data for neat methane and mixed methane/water systems. It is shown that that the MB-nrg PEFs achieve subchemical accuracy in the representation of individual many-body effects in small clusters and enables predictive simulations from the gas to the liquid phase. Analysis of structural properties calculated from molecular dynamics simulations of liquid methane and methane/water mixtures using both TTM-nrg and MB-nrg PEFs indicates that, while accounting for polarization effects is important for a correct description of many-body interactions in the liquid phase, an accurate representation of short-range interactions, as provided by the MB-nrg PEFs, is necessary for a quantitative description of the local solvation structure in liquid mixtures. </p> </div> </div> </div>

AbstractUsing a combination of genetic algorithms for the unbiased structure optimization and a Gupta many-body potential for the calculation of the energetic properties of a given structure, we determine the putative total-energy minima for all $$\hbox {Ag}_{m} \hbox {Rh}_n$$ Ag m Rh n clusters with a total number of atoms $$m+n$$ m + n up to 55. Subsequently, we use various descriptors to analyze the obtained structural and energetic properties. With the help of a similarity function, we show that the pure Ag and Rh clusters are structurally similar for sizes up to around 20 atoms. The same approach gives that the mixed clusters tend to possess a larger structural similarity with the pure Rh clusters than with the pure Ag clusters. However, for clusters with $$m\simeq n\ge 25$$ m ≃ n ≥ 25 , other structures dominate. The effective coordination numbers for the Ag and Rh atoms as well as the radial distributions of those atoms indicate that there is a tendency towards segregation with Rh atoms forming an inner part and the Ag atoms forming a shell. Only few clusters, all with a fairly large total number of atoms, are found to be particularly stable.

In recent years, tools from quantum information theory have become indispensable in characterizing many-body systems. In this work, we employ measures of entanglement to study the interplay between disorder and the topological phase in 1D systems of the Kitaev type, which can host Majorana end modes at their edges. We find that the entanglement entropy may actually increase as a result of disorder, and identify the origin of this behavior in the appearance of an infinite-disorder critical point. We also employ the entanglement spectrum to accurately determine the phase diagram of the system, and find that disorder may enhance the topological phase, and lead to the appearance of Majorana zero modes in systems whose clean version is trivial.

The liquid-liquid phase diagram for ethylene glycol and triethylamine has been determined. This mixture has a lower consolute temperature of 57.7 � 0.1� at 0.45 � 0.1 mole fraction triethylamine. Both carbon dioxide and water lower the lower consolute temperature. The densities and viscosities of solutions just below the lower consolute temperature do not exhibit any abnormalities.

The zero-temperature ground state properties of experimental 87Rb condensate are studied in a harmonic plus quartic trap [ V(r) =  ½mω2r2 + λr4 ]. The anharmonic parameter (λ) is slowly tuned from harmonic to anharmonic. For each choice of λ, the many-particle Schrödinger equation is solved using the potential harmonic expansion method and determines the lowest effective many-body potential. We utilize the correlated two-body basis function, which keeps all possible two-body correlations. The use of van der Waals interaction gives realistic pictures. We calculate kinetic energy, trapping potential energy, interaction energy, and total ground state energy of the condensate in this confining potential, modelled experimentally. The motivation of the present study is to investigate the crucial dependency of the properties of an interacting quantum many-body system on λ. The average size of the condensate has also been calculated to observe how the stability of repulsive condensate depends on anharmonicity. In particular, our calculation presents a clear physical picture of the repulsive condensate in an anharmonic trap.

Area Law

The mutual information is a measure of classical and quantum correlations of great interest in quantum information. It is also relevant in quantum many-body physics, by virtue of satisfying an area law for thermal states and bounding all correlation functions. However, calculating it exactly or approximately is often challenging in practice. Here, we consider alternative definitions based on Rényi divergences. Their main advantage over their von Neumann counterpart is that they can be expressed as a variational problem whose cost function can be efficiently evaluated for families of states like matrix product operators while preserving all desirable properties of a measure of correlations. In particular, we show that they obey a thermal area law in great generality, and that they upper bound all correlation functions. We also investigate their behavior on certain tensor network states and on classical thermal distributions.

Theoretical Results

The structure and energetics of Pd N (N = 5–80) clusters have been studied extensively by a Monte Carlo method based on Sutton–Chen many-body potential. The basin-hopping algorithm is used to find the low-energy minima on the potential energy surface for each nuclearity. A variety of structure types (icosahedral, decahedral and fcc closed-packed) are observed for Pd clusters. Some of the icosahedral global minima do not have a central atom. The resulting structures have been compared with the previous theoretical results.
