The dynamics of electrons in the presence of a positive ion is considered for conditions of weak electron-electron couping but strong electron-ion coupling. The equilibrium electron density and electric field time correlation functions are evaluated for semi-classical conditions using a classical statistical mechanics with a regularized electron-ion interaction for MD simulation. The theoretical analysis for the equilibrium state is obtained from the corresponding nonlinear Vlasov equation. Time correlation functions for the electrons are determined from the linearized Vlasov equation. The resulting electron dynamics is described in terms of a distribution of single electron-ion trajectories screened by an inhomogeneous electron gas dielectric function. The results are applied to calculation of the autocorrelation function for the electron electric field at the ion for $ 0leq Zleq 40$, including conditions of strong electron-ion coupling. The electron stopping power and self-diffusion coefficient are determined from these results, and all properties calculated are compared with those obtained from semi-classical molecular dynamics simulation. The agreement with semi-classical MD simulation is found to be reasonable. The theoretical description provides an instructive interpretation for the strong electron-ion results.

We investigate the evolution of a particle in a Lorentz gas where the background scatters move and collide with each other. As in the standard Lorentz gas, we assume that the particle is negligibly light in comparison with scatters. We show that the
average particle speed grows in time as t^{lambda/(4+lambda)} in three dimensions when the particle-scatter potential diverges as r^{-lambda} in the small separation limit. The typical displacement of the particle exhibits a universal linear growth in time independently on the density of the background gas and the particle-scatter interaction. The velocity and position distributions approach universal scaling forms. We determine the former, while for the position distribution we establish conjecturally exact scaling forms for the one and two-dimensional Lorentz gas.
We study dynamics and thermodynamics of ion channels, considered as effective 1D Coulomb systems. The long range nature of the inter-ion interactions comes about due to the dielectric constants mismatch between the water and lipids, confining the ele
ctric filed to stay mostly within the water-filled channel. Statistical mechanics of such Coulomb systems is dominated by entropic effects which may be accurately accounted for by mapping onto an effective quantum mechanics. In presence of multivalent ions the corresponding quantum mechanics appears to be non-Hermitian. In this review we discuss a framework for semiclassical calculations for corresponding non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. Non-Hermiticity elevates WKB action integrals from the real line to closed cycles on a complex Riemann surfaces where direct calculations are not attainable. We circumvent this issue by applying tools from algebraic topology, such as the Picard-Fuchs equation. We discuss how its solutions relate to the thermodynamics and correlation functions of multivalent solutions within long water-filled channels.
Stochastic Langevin dynamics has been traditionally used as a tool to describe non-equilibrium processes. When utilized in systems with collective modes, traditional Langevin dynamics relaxes all modes indiscriminately, regardless of their wavelength
. We propose a generalization of Langevin dynamics that can capture a differential coupling between collective modes and the bath, by introducing spatial correlations in the random forces. This allows modeling the electronic subsystem in a metal as a generalized Langevin bath endowed with a concept of locality, greatly improving the capabilities of the two-temperature model. The specific form proposed here for the spatial correlations produces physical wavevector- and polarization-dependency of the relaxation produced by the electron-phonon coupling in a solid. We show that the resulting model can be used for describing the path to equilibration of ions and electrons, and also as a thermostat to sample the equilibrium canonical ensemble. By extension, the family of models presented here can be applied in general to any dense system, solids, alloys and dense plasmas. As an example, we apply the model to study the non-equilibrium dynamics of an electron-ion two-temperature Ni crystal.
We investigate the effects of dissipation on the quantum dynamics of many-body systems at quantum transitions, especially considering those of the first order. This issue is studied within the paradigmatic one-dimensional quantum Ising model. We anal
yze the out-of-equilibrium dynamics arising from quenches of the Hamiltonian parameters and dissipative mechanisms modeled by a Lindblad master equation, with either local or global spin operators acting as dissipative operators. Analogously to what happens at continuous quantum transitions, we observe a regime where the system develops a nontrivial dynamic scaling behavior, which is realized when the dissipation parameter $u$ (globally controlling the decay rate of the dissipation within the Lindblad framework) scales as the energy difference $Delta$ of the lowest levels of the Hamiltonian, i.e., $usim Delta$. However, unlike continuous quantum transitions where $Delta$ is power-law suppressed, at first-order quantum transitions $Delta$ is exponentially suppressed with increasing the system size (provided the boundary conditions do not favor any particular phase).
We study the effect of noise on the axial mode of an electron in a Penning trap under parametric-resonance conditions. Our approach, based on the application of averaging techniques to the description of the dynamics, provides an understanding of the
random phase flips detected in recent experiments. The observed correlation between the phase jumps and the amplitude collapses is explained. Moreover, we discuss the actual relevance of noise color to the identified phase-switching mechanism. Our approach is then generalized to analyze the persistence of the stochastic phase flips in the dynamics of a cloud of N electrons. In particular, we characterize the detected scaling of the phase-jump rate with the number of electrons.
