A recently proposed classical-trajectory dynamical screening model for the description of multiple ionization and capture during ion-water molecule collisions is extended to incorporate dynamical screening on both the multi-center target potential and the projectile ion. Comparison with available experimental data for He$^{2+}$ + H$_2$O collisions at intermediate energies (10-150 keV/u) and Li$^{3+}$ + H$_2$O at higher energies (100-850 keV/u) demonstrates the importance of both screening mechanisms. The question of how to deal with the repartitioning of the capture flux into allowed capture channels is addressed. The model also provides insights for data on highly-charged projectile ions (C$^{6+}$, O$^{8+}$, Si$^{13+}$) in the MeV/u range where the question of saturation effects in net ionization was raised in the literature.

A classical description of electron emission differential ionization cross sections for highly-charged high-velocity ions ($sim$ 10 a.u.) impinging on water molecules is presented. We investigate the validity of the classical statistical mechanics de
scription of ionization ($hbar=0$ limit of quantum mechanics) in different ranges of electron emission energy and solid angle, where mechanisms such as soft and binary collisions are expected to contribute. The classical-trajectory Monte Carlo method is employed to calculate doubly and singly differential cross sections for C$^{6+}$, O$^{8+}$ and Si$^{13+}$ projectiles, and comparisons with Continuum Distorted Wave Eikonal Initial State theoretical results and with experimental data are presented. We implement a time-dependent screening effect in our model, in the spirit of mean-field theory to investigate its effect for highly charged projectiles. We also focus on the role of an accurate description of the molecular target by means of a three-center potential to show its effect on differential cross sections. Very good agreement with experiments is found at medium to high electron emission energies.
We present an accurate quantum mechanical study of molecule-molecule collisions in the presence of a magnetic field. The work focusses on the analysis of elastic scattering and spin relaxation in collisions of O2(3Sigma_g) molecules at cold (~0.1 K)
and ultracold (~10^{-6} K) temperatures. Our calculations show that magnetic spin relaxation in molecule-molecule collisions is extremely efficient except at magnetic fields below 1 mT. The rate constant for spin relaxation at T=0.1 K and a magnetic field of 0.1 T is found to be as large as 6.1 x 10^{-11} cm3/s. The magnetic field dependence of elastic and inelastic scattering cross sections at ultracold temperatures is dominated by a manifold of Feshbach resonances with the density of ~100 resonances per Tesla for collisions of molecules in the absolute ground state. This suggests that the scattering length of ultracold molecules in the absolute ground state can be effectively tuned in a very wide range of magnetic fields. Our calculations demonstrate that the number and properties of the magnetic Feshbach resonances are dramatically different for molecules in the absolute ground and excited spin states. The density of Feshbach resonances for molecule-molecule scattering in the low-field-seeking Zeeman state is reduced by a factor of 10.
We study the dynamical magnetic susceptibility of a strongly correlated electronic system in the presence of a time-dependent hopping field, deriving a generalized Bethe-Salpeter equation which is valid also out of equilibrium. Focusing on the single
-orbital Hubbard model within the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation, we solve the equation in the non-equilibrium adiabatic regime, obtaining a closed expression for the transverse magnetic susceptibility. From this, we provide a rigorous definition of non-equilibrium (time-dependent) magnon frequencies and exchange parameters, expressed in terms of non-equilibrium single-electron Green functions and self-energies. In the particular case of equilibrium, we recover previously known results.
The Boltzmann equation is the traditional framework in which one extends the time-dependent mean field classical description of a many-body system to include the effect of particle-particle collisions in an approximate manner. A semiclassical extensi
on of this approach to quantum many-body systems was suggested by Uehling and Uhlenbeck in 1933 for both Fermi and Bose statistics, and many further generalization of this approach are known as the Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (BUU) equations. Here I suggest a pure quantum version of the BUU type of equations, which is mathematically equivalent to a generalized Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory extended to superfluid systems.
Understanding ultracold collisions involving molecules is of fundamental importance for current experiments, where inelastic collisions typically limit the lifetime of molecular ensembles in optical traps. Here we present a broad study of optically t
rapped ultracold RbCs molecules in collisions with one another, in reactive collisions with Rb atoms, and in nonreactive collisions with Cs atoms. For experiments with RbCs alone, we show that by modulating the intensity of the optical trap, such that the molecules spend 75% of each modulation cycle in the dark, we partially suppress collisional loss of the molecules. This is evidence for optical excitation of molecule pairs mediated via sticky collisions. We find that the suppression is less effective for molecules not prepared in the spin-stretched hyperfine ground state. This may be due either to longer lifetimes for complexes or to laser-free decay pathways. For atom-molecule mixtures, RbCs+Rb and RbCs+Cs, we demonstrate that the rate of collisional loss of molecules scales linearly with the density of atoms. This indicates that, in both cases, the loss of molecules is rate-limited by two-body atom-molecule processes. For both mixtures, we measure loss rates that are below the thermally averaged universal limit.
