In response to recent experimental studies we investigate Coulomb distortion effects on (e, e ′) reactions from medium and heavy nuclei for the case of electrons and positrons. We extend our previously reported full DWBA treatment of Coulomb distortions to the case of positrons for the 208 P b(e, e ′) reaction in the quasielastic region for a particular nuclear model. In addition, we use previo...

We report on transport measurement performed on a room-temperature-operating ultrasmall Coulomb blockade devices with a silicon island of sub5 nm. The charge stability at 300K exhibits a substantial change in slopes and diagonal size of each successive Coulomb diamond, but remarkably its main feature persists even at low temperature down to 5.3K except for additional Coulomb peak splitting. Thi...

Detailed electron transport analysis is performed for an ensemble of conical indium phosphide nanowires bridging two hydrogenated n-silicon electrodes. The current-voltage (Id-Vd) characteristics exhibit a Coulomb staircase in dark with a period of ~ 1 V at room temperature. The staircase is found to disappear under light illumination. This observation can be explained by assuming the presence ...

We study the depairing effect due to Coulomb interactions in NaxCoO2. We consider the electron-phonon coupling and the Coulomb interactions, and determine Tc for s-wave superconductivity by solving the linearized Eliashberg equation. When we consider shear phonons as well as breathing phonons, Tc is enhanced by Suhl-Kondo (SK) mechanism. Since SK mechanism is strong against Coulomb interactions...

The gate dependence of a Coulomb attractive random telegraph signal is observed in a single-walled carbon nanotube field effect transistor for temperatures varying from 0.32 to 24 K. The mechanism of the Coulomb attractive random telegraph signal is attributed to the carrier tunneling between the carbon nanotube and the Coulomb attractive defect. The random telegraph signal is also studied unde...

Three-body resonances in atomic systems are calculated as complexenergy solutions of Faddeev-type integral equations. The homogeneous FaddeevMerkuriev integral equations are solved by approximating the potential terms in a Coulomb-Sturmian basis. The Coulomb-Sturmian matrix elements of the three-body Coulomb Green’s operator has been calculated as a contour integral of two-body Coulomb Green’s ...

We review the canonical quantization of continuum Yang-Mills theory, and derive the continuum Coulomb-gauge Hamiltonian by a simplification of the ChristLee method. We then analogously derive, by a simple and elementary method, the lattice Coulomb-gauge Hamiltonian in the minimal Coulomb gauge (and in other Coulomb gauges) from the known Kogut-Susskind Hamiltonian. Lectures given at the NATO AS...

Coulomb Dissociation provides an alternative method for determining the radiative capture cross sections at astrophysically relevant low relative energies. For the breakup of 8 B on 58 Ni, we calculate the total Coulomb Dissociation cross section and the angular distribution for E1, E2 and M1. Our calculations are performed first within the standard first order semiclassical theory of Coulomb E...

It is well known that neutron star crust in a wide range of mass densities and temperatures is in a crystal state. At a given density, the crystal is made of fully ionized atomic nuclei of a single species immersed in a nearly incompressible (i.e., constant and uniform) charge compensating background of electrons. This model is known as the Coulomb crystal model. In this talk we analyze thermod...
