Singlet fission (SF) is an exciton multiplication process that splits a singlet exciton in organic semiconductors into two triplet excitons and thus, can overcome the Shockley–Queisser limit to improve the solar energy conversion efficiency in photovol…
We have studied two-dimensional absorption, gain, and corresponding refractive index profiles in a ladder-type three-level atomic system interacting with three coherent fields. One is a weak probe field considered as a plane wave, while the other two a…
In an attempt to address the long-standing fine-structure puzzle in heavy muonic atoms we investigate the magnetic interaction between a nucleus and its bound muon. A simple estimate shows that the effect is only noticeable for unrealistic nuclear para…
We consider positronium formation in collisions of positrons with excited hydrogen atoms H(n) in an infrared laser field theoretically. This process is assisted by the dipolar focusing effect: a positron moving in a superposition of a laser field and t…
The fragmentation of three cyclic dipeptides (c-Glycil-Phenylalanine, c-Tryptophan-Tyrosine and c-Tryptophan-Tryptophan), characterized by an aromatic side chain, has been investigated by synchrotron radiation and photoelectron-photoion coincidence (PE…
This article presents spectroscopy results of the transition in all isotopes of laser cooled Sr atoms and the utility of this transition for repumping application. By employing the (483 nm) transition in combination with the excitation of (707 nm) tran…
We have performed high-level R-matrix scattering calculations to identify and characterise the resonances potentially involved in dissociative electron attachment (DEA) of H2 at around 14.5 eV. DEA experiments (Krishnakumar et al 2018 Nat. Phys.4 149) …
Shortcuts to adiabaticity guide given systems to final destinations of adiabatic control via fast tracks. Various methods have been proposed as shortcuts to adiabaticity. The basic theory of shortcuts to adiabaticity was established in the 2010s, but i…
In this paper, we present new radiative rate calculations for forbidden transitions, namely magnetic dipole (M1) and electric quadrupole (E2) transitions, involving all the experimentally known energy levels within the 4f4 ground configuration of doubl…
Theoretical investigations of electron-impact ionisation for carbon dioxide (CO2) in low to intermediate energy ranges are presented. In addition to the energy range, we have estimated triple differential cross-section (TDCS) in coplanar and perpendicu…
