Numerical methods for free-free radiative transition matrix elements

Transition Matrix Monte Carlo Method

We present a formalism of the transition matrix Monte Carlo method. A stochastic matrix in the space of energy can be estimated from Monte Carlo simulation. This matrix is used to compute the density of states, as well as to construct multi-canonical and equal-hit algorithms. We discuss the performance of the methods. The results are compared with single histogram method, multi-canonical method...

Weak transition matrix elements from finite-volume correlation functions

The two-body decay rate of a weakly decaying particle (such as the kaon) is shown to be proportional to the square of a well-defined transition matrix element in finite volume. Contrary to the physical amplitude, the latter can be extracted from finite-volume correlation functions in euclidean space without analytic continuation. The K → ππ transitions and other non-leptonic decays thus become ...

Precision measurement of transition matrix elements via light shift cancellation.

We present a method for accurate determination of atomic transition matrix elements at the 10(-3) level. Measurements of the ac Stark (light) shift around "magic-zero" wavelengths, where the light shift vanishes, provide precise constraints on the matrix elements. We make the first measurement of the 5s - 6p matrix elements in rubidium by measuring the light shift around the 421 and 423 nm zero...
