Transmission function vs energy splitting in tunneling calculations
Two methods have been widely employed for computing tunneling rates in a double-well potential, one based on a transmission function, the second on energy splitting. Semiclassical calculations (Brickm...

Absorption bands in a CsHe system associated with forbidden Cs atomic transitions
We have made direct absorption measurements of the Cs(7S)HeCs(6S)He absorption band (5250–5700 Å) and the prominent part of the Cs(5D5/2)HeCs(6S)He absorption band (5800–6850 Å...

From molecular dynamics calculations on a two-dimensional Lennard-Jones system we find a first order solid–fluid transition with an estimated triple point temperature in good agreement with the triple point temperature of adsorbed monolayers of xenon. The melting obeys Ross's melting criteria. The Journal of Chemical Physics is copyrighted by The American Institute of Physics.
