Two-dimensional angular correlation of annihilation radiation (2D-ACAR) and Compton scattering are both powerful techniques to investigate the bulk electronic structure of crystalline solids through the momentum density of the electrons. Here we apply both methods to a single crystal of Pd to study the electron momentum density and the occupancy in the first Brillouin zone, and to point out the complementary nature of the two techniques. To retrieve the 2D spectra from 1D Compton profiles, a new direct inversion method (DIM) is implemented and benchmarked against the well-established Cormacks method. The comparison of experimental spectra with first principles density functional theory calculations of the electron momentum density and the two photon momentum density clearly reveals the importance of positron probing effects on the determination of the electronic structure. While the calculations are in good agreement with the experimental data, our results highlight some significant discrepancies.

Two dimensional angular correlation of the positron annihilation radiation (2D-ACAR) spectra are measured for $mathrm{LaB}_6$ along high symmetry directions and compared with first principle calculations based on density functional theory (DFT). This
allows the modeling of the Fermi surface in terms of ellipsoid electron pockets centered at $X$-points elongated along the $Sigma$ axis (${Gamma-M}$ direction). The obtained structure is in agreement with quantum oscillation measurements and previous band structure calculations. For the isostructural topologically not-trivial $mathrm{SmB}_6$ the similar ellipsoids are connected through necks that have significantly smaller radii in the case of $mathrm{LaB}_6$. A theoretical analysis of the 2D-ACAR spectra is also performed for $mathrm{CeB}_6$ including the on-site repulsion $U$ correction to the local-density approximation (LDA+$U$) of the DFT. The similarities of 2D-ACAR spectra and the Fermi-surface projections of these two compounds allow to infer that both $mathrm{LaB}_6$ and $mathrm{CeB}_6$ are topologically trivial correlated metals.
A method for computing electron momentum densities and Compton profiles from ab initio calculations is presented. Reciprocal space is divided into optimally-shaped tetrahedra for interpolation, and the linear tetrahedron method is used to obtain the
momentum density and its projections such as Compton profiles. Results are presented and evaluated against experimental data for Be, Cu, Ni, Fe3Pt, and YBa2Cu4O8, demonstrating the accuracy of our method in a wide variety of crystal structures.
Dimensionality cross-over is a classical topic in physics. Surprisingly it has not been searched in micromagnetism, which deals with objects such as domain walls (2D) and vortices (1D). We predict by simulation a second-order transition between these
two objects, with the wall length as the Landau parameter. This was conrmed experimentally based on micron-sized ux-closure dots.
This paper presents solutions to Density Classification Task (DCT) using a variant of Cellular Automata (CA) called Programmable Cellular Automata (PCA). The translation property as well as the density preserving property of fundamental CA rules in 1
D and 2D, and the advantage of PCA are embedded together to obtain the DCT solution. The advantage of PCA over standard CA is reported. A general 2D DCT of arbitrary shapes and sizes, its applicability and its solution using PCA is newly introduced.
We propose a new 2D semiconductor material (TTA-2D) based on the molecular structure of Thiophene-Tetrathia-Annulene (TTA). The TTA-2D structural, electronic, and optical properties were investigated using textit{ab initio} methods. Our results show
that TTA-2D is a small indirect bandgap semiconductor ($0.6$ eV). A semiconductor-metal transition can be induced by applying a uniaxial strain. Our results also show that TTA-2D is thermally stable up to $T=1000$ K. TTA-2D absorbs in a large spectral range, from infrared to ultraviolet regions. Values of refractive index and reflectivity show that TTA-2D reflects only $10%$ of the incident light in the visible region. These results suggest that TTA-2D is a promising material for solar cell applications.
