Modified Iterative Extended Hueckel. 1: Theory

Iterative Extended Huekel is modified by inclusion of explicit effective internuclear and electronic interactions. The one electron energies are shown to obey a variational principle because of the form of the effective electronic interactions. The modifications permit mimicking of aspects of valence bond theory with the additional feature that the energies associated with valence bond type structures are explicitly calculated. In turn, a hybrid molecular, orbital valence, bond scheme is introduced which incorporates variant total molecular electronic density distributions similar to the way that Iterative Extended Hueckel incorporates atoms.

Interaction between electron holes in a strongly magnetized plasma

The interaction between electron holes in a strongly magnetized, plasma-filled waveguide is investigated by means of computer simulation. Two holes may or may not coalesce, depending on their amplitudes and velocities. The interaction between holes and Trivelpiece-Gould solitons is demonstrated to be weak.

Electron-phonon interaction on optical spectra of nanoelectronic devices

Information obtained on the solid-state lattice dynamics by electron-phonon interaction between lattice phonons and electrons could open up to learn more about lattice dynamics and to apply it in nanoelectronic devices including software reliability, nano-size capacitors, master clock sources, as well as non-contact temperature probes on nano-electronic and photonicdevices.

Metagalactic gamma rays from relativistic-electron bremsstrahlung interactions.

Evaluation of gamma-ray spectra calculated for relativistic-electron bremsstrahlung interactions at cosmological distances under the assumption of a single power-law source spectrum for the electrons. It is concluded that such spectra cannot match the form of the observed cosmic gamma-ray spectrum above 1 MeV, as has previously been suggested.

On the lattice dynamics of metallic hydrogen and other Coulomb systems

Numerical results for the phonon spectra of metallic hydrogen and other Coulomb systems in cubic lattices are presented. In second order in the electron-ion interaction, the behavior of the dielectric function of the interacting electron gas for arguments around the seond Fermi harmonic leads to drastic Kohn anomalies and even to imaginary phonon frequencies. Third-order band-structure corrections are also calculated. Properties of self-consistent phonons and the validity of the adiabatic approximation are discussed.

Electrons in the ionosphere of Titan

A theoretical model of the spatial and energy distribution of electrons in the ionosphere of Titan has been constructed using the two-stream electron transport method and the electron energy equation. The calculated electron spectra show abrupt decreases that can contribute to the 'bite-out' signature observed by the Voyager 1 plasma science instrument. Energy deposition rates in the exosphere of Titan by photoelectrons and magnetospheric electrons are calculated. Calculated N2 EUV airglow emission rates lead to the conclusion that airglow emission due to photoelectron impact is much more important than airglow emission due to magnetospheric electron interactions. Thermal electron temperatures at Titan are calculated for the first time. The electron gas remains well thermalized with the neutral atmosphere for radial distances from the center of Titan less than 3500 km. For radial distances beyond about 4000 km, energy transport dominates the energetics, and the electrons are almost isothermal along magnetic field lines.

Photoelectron angular distributions as a probe of anisotropic electron-ion interactions

Expressions are given for atomic photoelectron angular distributions in LS coupling in which the role of anisotropic final state electron-ion interactions emerges explicitly. Calculations of photoelectron angular distributions for atomic sulfur are presented in which these anisotropic interactions produce pronounced deviations from the predictions of the Cooper-Zare model. Such effects are expected to be a general feature of photoelectron angular distributions for most open shell atoms.
