Density fluctuations in inhomogeneous systems are treated in the RPA using the Kadanoff–Baym Green's function method. In our analysis, the Wigner distribution function plays an important role. Well-known results for surface plasmons in one- and two-component plasmas are very easy to derive. A brief discussion is given of surface modes in systems for which the interaction is of short range.

The dynamical aspects of the phonoriton state in highly-photoexcited semiconductors is studied theoretically. The effect of the exciton–exciton interaction and nonbosonic character of high-density excitons are taken into account. Using Green's function method and within the Random Phase Approximation it is shown that the phonoriton dispersion and damping are very sensitive to the exciton density, characterizing the excitation degree of semiconductors.

The γ-ray strength function (γSF) is a nuclear quantity that governs photoabsorption in (γ, n) and photoemission in (n, γ) reactions. Within the framework of the γ-ray strength function method, we use (γ, n) cross sections as experimental constraints on the γSF from the Hartree-Fock-Bogolyubov plus quasiparticle-random phase approximation based on the Gogny D1M interaction for E1 and M1 components. The experimentally constrained γSF is further supplemented with the zero-limit M1 and E1 strengths to construct the downward γSF with which (n, γ) cross sections are calculated. We investigate (n, γ) cross sections in the context of astrophysical applications over the nickel and barium isotopic chains along the s-process path.

We investigate the magnetoplasma excitations in a system comprised of two parallel two-dimensional conducting layers separated by a distance 2d>0. The individual layers are assumed to have, in general, different effective masses, particle densities and charges. The dispersion equations are derived quantum mechanically within the random phase approximation and the spectrum of the long wavelength collective modes is calculated. We also investigate the mutual phase of two-dimensional magnetoplasma oscillations and show that this mutual phase is similar to that in the three-dimensional case and does not depend on the interlayer distance.
