Frustrated spin-Peierls chains.

We study the phase diagram, ground state properties, and excitation gaps of a frustrated spin-Peierls chain, i.e. a spin-Peierls chain with both nearest neighbor exchange J1 and next nearest neighbor exchange J2. The phase diagram is calculated using a bosonization Renormalization-Group (RG) method. We propose a (bosonic) bond-operator mean field approximation to calculate the ground state prop...

Electrostatic complexation of spheres and chains under elastic stress

We consider the complexation of highly charged semiflexible polyelectrolytes with oppositely charged macroions. On the basis of scaling arguments we discuss how the resulting complexes depend on the persistence length of the polyelectrolyte, the salt concentration, and the sizes and charges of the chain and the macroions. We study first the case of complexation with a single sphere and calculat...

Covering and Packing with Spheres

We address the problem of covering R with congruent balls, while minimizing the number of balls that contain an average point. Considering the 1-parameter family of lattices defined by stretching or compressing the integer grid in diagonal direction, we give a closed formula for the covering density that depends on the distortion parameter. We observe that our family contains the thinnest latti...

Packing fraction of crystalline structures of binary hard spheres: a general equation and application to amorphization.

In a previous paper analytical equations were derived for the packing fraction of crystalline structures consisting of bimodal randomly placed hard spheres [H. J. H. Brouwers, Phys. Rev. E 76, 041304 (2007)]. The bimodal packing fraction was derived for the three crystalline cubic systems: viz., face-centered cubic, body-centered cubic, and simple cubic. These three equations appeared also to b...

Packing of crystalline structures of binary hard spheres: an analytical approach and application to amorphization.

The geometrical stability of the three lattices of the cubic crystal system, viz. face-centered cubic (fcc), body-centered cubic (bcc), and simple cubic (sc), consisting of bimodal discrete hard spheres, and the transition to amorphous packing is studied. First, the random close packing (rcp) fraction of binary mixtures of amorphously packed spheres is recapitulated. Next, the packing of a bina...
