We investigate the effect of Coulomb interactions on the tunneling density of states (DOS) of granular metallic systems at the onset of Coulomb blockade regime in two and three dimensions sd=2,3d. Using the renormalization group technique we derive the analytical expressions for the DOS as a function of temperature T and energy «. We show that samples with the bare intergranular tunneling condu...

We compare MC calculations of the density of states in SU(2) pure gauge theory with the weak and strong coupling expansions. Surprisingly, the range of validity of the two approximations overlap significantly, however the large order behavior of both expansions appear to be similar to the corresponding expansions of the plaquette. We discuss the implications for the calculation of the Fisher’s ...

We prove that the integrated density of surface states of continuous or discrete Anderson-type random Schrödinger operators is a measurable locally integrable function rather than a signed measure or a distribution. This generalize our recent results on the existence of the integrated density of surface states in the continuous case and those of A. Chahrour in the discrete case. The proof uses ...

The N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl derivatives are important models for studying of three-centered intramolecular hydrogen bonding in organic molecules. The quantum theoretical calculations for two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl (compounds I and II) were performed by Density Functional Theory (B3LYP method and 6-311+G* basis set). From the optimized structures, geometric paramet...

Abstract: The application of electric field theory to widely different aspects of electrical insulation has led to more understanding the phenomena. Electric fields may be considered as the main reason for insulation failure. The purpose of this paper is to modify importance of analyzing electric field in insulation design. The SF6 circuit breaker is chosen as case study that encounters cri...

Density functional theory calculations were carried out to investigate the structural and electronicproperties of the adsorption of O3 molecules on AlP-codoped monolayers to fully exploit the gas sensingcapability of these two-dimensional materials. Various adsorption sites of O3 molecule on the considerednanosheets were examined in detail. The side oxygen atoms of the O3 mole...

In this study, a full-potential density functional theory was used to investigate the effects of Ti substitution by different cations. In both rutile and anatase, Ti atom was replaced by Ce, Au, Sn, Ag, Mo, Nb, Zr, and Y. Phase stability, electronic structure and formation energy of oxygen vacancy were compared for rutile and anatase. The results indicated that substitution of Ce and Zr increas...

Emotion, as a psychophysiological state, plays an important role in human communications and daily life. Emotion studies related to the physiological signals are recently the subject of many researches. In This study a hybrid feature based approach was proposed to examine affective states. To this effect, Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals of 47 students were recorded using pictorial emotion elici...
