The infrared vibrational levels of nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are studied in the framework of Lie algebra. The aim of this work is to compare the frequency obtained in two algebraic models: “the vibron model” and “the mean field approximation of the vibron model”. To compare the two models we choose two triatomic molecules: CO2 of symmetry type D∞h and N2O of symmetry type C∞v. To construct the energy levels in the vibron model, the vibron numbers N for the two molecules are estimated from the harmonic frequency and the anharmonicity constant. After the proper estimation of N, the algebraic interaction parameters for both the molecules are evaluated against a least square fit with the experimental values using MATLAB R2015. Using the algebraic interaction parameters, the vibrational frequencies for the two molecules are calculated. Because CO2 is a linear symmetric triatomic molecule, the higher vibrational levels are largely affected by the mode mixing due to accidental degeneracy. The accidental degeneracy is studied introducing the Majorana and Fermi interaction parameters and the rms deviations are observed. The effects of accidental degeneracy for each of the molecules are not equal. In the second part of this report, the harmonic frequencies of CO2 and N2O are calculated using the mean field approximation. It is found that the results show good agreement.

The combined effect of an imposed rotation and magnetic field on convective transfer in a horizontal Boussinesq layer of fluid heated from below is studied in the mean field approximation. The basic equations are derived by a variational technique and their solutions are then found over a wide range of conditions, in the case of free boundaries, by numerical and analytic techniques, in particular by asymptotic and perturbation methods. The results obtained by the different techniques are shown to be in excellent agreement. As for the linear theory, the calculations predict that the simultaneous presence' of a magnetic field and rotation may produce conflicting tendencies.

We use the linear sigma model coupled to quarks to compute the effective potential beyond the mean field approximation, including the contribution of the ring diagrams at finite temperature and baryon density. We determine the model couplings and use them to study the phase diagram in the baryon chemical potential-temperature plane and to locate the Critical End Point.

Magnetic instability in gapless superconductors still remains as a puzzle. In this article, we point out that the instability might be caused by using BCS theory in mean-field approximation, where the phase fluctuation has been neglected. The mean-field BCS theory describes very well the strongly coherent or rigid superconducting state. With the increase of mismatch between the Fermi surfaces of pairing fermions, the phase fluctuation plays more and more important role, and "soften" the superconductor. The strong phase fluctuation will eventually quantum disorder the superconducting state, and turn the system into a phase-decoherent pseudogap state.

Quantum condensates in nuclear matter are treated beyond the mean-field approximation, with the inclusion of cluster formation. The occurrence of a separate binding pole in the four-particle propagator in nuclear matter is investigated with respect to the formation of a condensate of α-like particles (quartetting), which is dependent on temperature and density. Due to Pauli blocking, the formation of an α-like condensate is limited to the low-density region. Consequences for finite nuclei are considered. In particular, excitations of self-conjugate 2n-Z–2n-N nuclei near the n-α-breakup threshold are candidates for quartetting. We review some results and discuss their consequences. Exploratory calculations are performed for the density dependence of the α condensate fraction at zero temperature to address the suppression of the four-particle condensate below nuclear-matter density.

The two interacting complex scalar fields at finite density is considered in the mean field approximation. It is shown that although the symmetry is spontaneously broken for the chemical potentials bigger than the meson masses in vacuum, but the Goldstone theorem is not preserved in broken phase. Then two mesons are condensed and their condensates turn out to be two-gap superconductor which is signaled by the appearance of the Meissner effect as well as the Abrikosov and non-Abrikosov vortices. Finally, there exhibits domain wall which is the plane, where two condensates flowing in opposite directions collide and generate two types of vortices with cores in the wall.
