We consider a Dirac one-electron atom placed in a weak, static, uniform magnetic field. We show that, to the first order in the strength B of the perturbing field, the only electric multipole moment induced by the field in the ground state of the atom is the quadrupole one. Using the Sturmian expansion of the generalized Dirac–Coulomb Green function [R. Szmytkowski, J. Phys. B 30 (1997) 825; er...

We propose to test CP symmetry in the decay J/ψ → γφφ, for which large data sample exists at BESII, and a data sample of 10 10 J/ψ's will be collected with BESIII and CLEO-C program. We suggest some CP asymmetries in this decay mode for CP test. Assuming that CP violation is introduced by the electric-and chromo-dipole moment of charm quark, these CP asymmetries can be predicted by using valenc...

The electric dipole moments of closed-shell atoms are sensitive to the parity and timereversal violating phenomena in the nucleus. The nuclear Schiff moment is one such property, it arises from the parity and time reversal violating quark-quark interactions and the quarkchromo electric dipole moments. We calculate the electric dipole moment of atomic Hg arising from the nuclear Schiff moment us...

We report on the focusing and guiding of the van der Waals complex formed between benzonitrile molecules (C(6)H(5)CN) and argon atoms in a cold molecular beam using an ac electric quadrupole guide. The distribution of quantum states in the guided beam is non-thermal, because the transmission efficiency depends on the state-dependent effective dipole moment in the applied electric fields. At a s...

A fundamentally new understanding of the classical electromagnetic interaction of a point charge and a magnetic dipole moment through order v/c is suggested. This relativistic analysis connects together hidden momentum in magnets, Solem’s strange polarization of the classical hydrogen atom, and the Aharonov-Bohm phase shift. First we review the predictions following from the traditional particl...

A DFT study of the electronic properties of ansa-titanocene dichloride is reported. Molecular orbital analysis, polarizability, hyperpolarizability, thermodynamic analysis and natural bond orbital (NBO) theory are the main aim of the present research. The computed structural parameters show a good agreement with the similar experimental results. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that c...

The two neutrino and neutrinoless double beta decay of Zr, Mo, Ru, Pd, Te and Nd isotopes for the 0 → 0 transition is studied within the PHFB framework along with an effective two-body interaction consisting of pairing, quadrupole-quadrupole and hexadecapole-hexadecapole correlations. It is found that the effect of hexadecapolar correlations can be assimilated substantially as a renormalization...

When a homogenous electric field is applied to polyynes (C10 and C20) perpendicular to their long axis, they bend to form an arch. The height of the arch is proportional to the intensity of the electric field. The direction of the bend and its magnitude depend on the electronic nature (donor/acceptor) of the substituents at the termini of the polyyne. The driving force for the formation of the ...

Systematic quantum chemical calculations have been performed to obtain precise estimates of the equilibrium and vibrationally averaged molecular structure and electric dipole moment of vinylacetylene (VA, 1-buten-3-yne). Anharmonic (cubic and semi-diagonal quartic) MP2/cc-pVTZ force fields in normal coordinates were computed to account for anharmonic vibrational effects, including zero-point co...

the ultraviolet-visible (uv) spectra of toluene, ortho-bromo and para-bromo toluene in different solvents have been studied. the electric dipole moments and polarizabilities in the molecular excited electronic states were determined. it was found that the electric dipole moments for the excited states (µ*) and the ground states (µ) of these compounds are equal, and the change in dipole moment i...
