A new method for solving the time-dependent two-center Dirac equation is developed. The approach is based on the using of the finite basis of cubic Hermite splines on a three-dimensional lattice in the coordinate space. The relativistic calculations of the excitation and charge-transfer probabilities in the U91+(1s)-U92+ collisions in two and three dimensional approaches are performed. The obtained results are compared with our previous calculations employing the Dirac-Sturm basis sets [I.I. Tupitsyn et al., Phys. Rev. A 82, 042701 (2010)]. The role of the negative-energy Dirac spectrum is investigated within the monopole approximation.

A new approach for solving the time-dependent two-center Dirac equation is presented. The method is based on using the finite basis set of cubic Hermite splines on a two-dimensional lattice. The Dirac equation is treated in rotating reference frame. The collision of U92+ (as a projectile) and U91+ (as a target) is considered at energy E_lab=6 MeV/u. The charge transfer probabilities are calculated for different values of the impact parameter. The obtained results are compared with the previous calculations [I. I. Tupitsyn et al., Phys. Rev. A 82, 042701 (2010)], where a method based on atomic-like Dirac-Sturm orbitals was employed. This work can provide a new tool for investigation of quantum electrodynamics effects in heavy-ion collisions near the supercritical regime.
In recent years many efforts have been undertaken to simplify coil designs for stellarators due to the difficulties in fabricating non-planar coils. The FOCUS code removes the need for a winding surface and represents the coils as arbitrary curves in 3D. In the following work, the implementation of a spline representation for the coils in FOCUS is described, along with the implementation of a new engineering constraint to design coils with a straighter outer section. The new capabilities of the code are shown as an example on HSX, NCSX, and a prototype quasi-axisymmetric reactor-sized stellarator. The flexibility granted by splines along with the new constraint will allow for stellarator coil designs with improved accessibility and simplified maintenance
Calculations of the hyperpolarizability are typically much more difficult to converge with basis set size than the linear polarizability. In order to understand these convergence issues and hence obtain accurate ab initio values, we compare calculations of the static hyperpolarizability of the gas-phase chloroform molecule (CHCl_3) using three different kinds of basis sets: Gaussian-type orbitals, numerical basis sets, and real-space grids. Although all of these methods can yield similar results, surprisingly large, diffuse basis sets are needed to achieve convergence to comparable values. These results are interpreted in terms of local polarizability and hyperpolarizability densities. We find that the hyperpolarizability is very sensitive to the molecular structure, and we also assess the significance of vibrational contributions and frequency dispersion.
We study the x-ray emission following the collision of a Bi$^{83+}$ ion with a neutral Xe atom at the projectile energy 70 MeV/u. The collisional and post-collisional processes are treated separately. The probabilities of various many-electron processes at the collision are calculated within a relativistic independent electron model using the coupled-channel approach with atomic-like Dirac-Fock-Sturm orbitals. The analysis of the post-collisional processes resulting in the x-ray emission is based on the fluorescence yields, the radiation and Auger decay rates, and allows to derive intensities of the x-ray emission and compare them with experimental data. A reasonable agreement between the theoretical results and the recent experimental data is observed. The role of the relativistic effects is investigated.
Any quantum system with a non-trivial Hamiltonian is able to simulate any other Hamiltonian evolution provided that a sufficiently large group of unitary control operations is available. We show that there exist finite groups with this property and present a sufficient condition in terms of group characters. We give examples of such groups in dimension 2 and 3. Furthermore, we show that it is possible to simulate an arbitrary bipartite interaction by a given one using such groups acting locally on the subsystems.
