Why charges go to the surface: a generalized Thomson problem
– We study a variant of the generalized Thomson problem in which n particles are confined to a neutral sphere and interacting by a 1/r potential. It is found that for γ ≤ 1 the electrostatic repulsion expels all the charges to the surface of the sphere. However for γ > 1 and n > nc(γ) occupation of the bulk becomes energetically favorable. It is curious to note that the Coulomb law lies exactly...
متن کاملEnergy band correction due to one dimension tension in phosphorene
Among graphene-like family, phosphorene is a typical semiconducting layered material, which can also be a superconductor in low temperature. Applying pressure or tension on phosphorene lattice results in changing the hopping terms, which change the energy bands of the material. In this research we use the tight-binding Hamiltonian, including relevant hopping terms, to calculate energy bands of ...
متن کاملMinimal Energy of 100 Point Charges on the Unit Sphere
Before 1909, atoms were thought to consist of a diffuse positive charge surrounded by electrons (the “plum pudding” model). In order to predict the properties of the elements on the periodic table with this model, the distribution of electrons on a sphere had to be studied. This problem was named after Thomson, the originator of the plum pudding model and the first to study it. In 1909, Rutherf...
متن کاملEquilibrium configurations of tripolar charges
It is shown that an ensemble of particles with tripolar (colour) charges will necessarily cohere in a hierarchy of structures, from simple clusters and strings to complex aggregates and cyclic moleculelike structures. The basic combinatoric rule remains essentially the same on different levels of the hierarchy, thus leading to a pattern of resemblance between different levels. The number of pri...
متن کاملSimulations of transport in one dimension
Advection-dispersion equation is solved in numerically by using combinations of differential quadrature method (DQM) and various time integration techniques covering some explicit or implicit single and multi step methods. Two different initial boundary value problems modeling conservative and nonconservative transports of some substance represented by initial data are chosen as test problems. ...
