We investigate the dynamics of a composite system ([Formula: see text]) consisting of an interacting fermion–antifermion pair in the three-dimensional space–time background generated by a static point source. By considering the interaction between the particles as Dirac oscillator coupling, we analyze the effects of space–time topology on the energy of such a [Formula: see text]. To achieve this, we solve the corresponding form of a two-body Dirac equation (fully-covariant) by assuming the center-of-mass of the particles is at rest and locates at the origin of the spatial geometry. Under this assumption, we arrive at a nonperturbative energy spectrum for the system in question. This spectrum includes spin coupling and depends on the angular deficit parameter [Formula: see text] of the geometric background. This provides a suitable basis to determine the effects of the geometric background on the energy of the [Formula: see text] under consideration. Our results show that such a [Formula: see text] behaves like a single quantum oscillator. Then, we analyze the alterations in the energy levels and discuss the limits of the obtained results. We show that the effects of the geometric background on each energy level are not same and there can be degeneracy in the energy levels for small values of the [Formula: see text].

Inspired in discussions presented lately regarding Lorentz-violating interaction terms in B. Charneski, M. Gomes, R. V. Maluf and A. J. da Silva, Phys. Rev. D86, 045003 (2012); R. Casana, M. M. Ferreira Jr., R. V. Maluf and F. E. P. dos Santos, Phys. Lett. B726, 815 (2013); R. Casana, M. M. Ferreira Jr., E. Passos, F. E. P. dos Santos and E. O. Silva, Phys. Rev. D87, 047701 (2013), we propose here a slightly different version for the coupling term. We will consider a modified quantum electrodynamics with violation of Lorentz symmetry defined in a (2+1)-dimensional space–time. We define the Lagrangian density with a Lorentz-violating interaction, where the space–time dimensionality is explicitly taken into account in its definition. The work encompasses an analysis of this model at both zero and finite-temperature, where very interesting features are known to occur due to the space–time dimensionality. With that in mind, we expect that the space–time dimensionality may provide new insights about the radiative generation of higher-derivative terms into the action, implying in a new Lorentz-violating electrodynamics, as well the nonminimal coupling may provide interesting implications on the thermodynamical quantities.

This paper presents the development of a three-dimensional space-time neutronic kinetic model of a Canadian deuterium uranium (CANDU) reactor using a modal method. In this method, the reactor space-time neutron flux is synthesized by a time-weighted series of precalculated neutron flux modes. The modes are eigenfunctions of the governing neutron diffusion equation during reference steady-state operation. The xenon effect has also been considered. The reactor model is then implemented within a simulation platform of a CANDU6 reactor regulating system in MATLAB/SIMULINK. A nondimensionalized SIMULINK representation of the reactor kinetic model is established. The behavior of the reactor during load following transients has been simulated using the developed reactor-modeling module. The simulation results prove the efficiency of the model. A three-dimensional neutron flux distribution during transients is represented.

In order to raise computation speed on the premise of enough numerical accuracy, the Predictor-Corrector Improved Quasi-Static (PC-IQS) method and Nodal Green’s Function Method (NGFM) were combined to solve the three-dimensional space-time neutron diffusion kinetics problems for Cartesian geometry. In addition, the improved quasi-static method and the Krylov algorithm were applied to solve the three-dimensional space-time neutron diffusion kinetics problems for cylindrical geometry. Based on the proposed model, the program of three-dimensional neutron space-time kinetic code has been tested by the two-dimensional and three-dimensional transient numerical benchmarks. The numerical results obtained by this work were in good agreement with the reference solutions.

Three-dimensional quantized space model is newly introduced. Quantum mechanics and relativity theory are explained in terms of the warped three-dimensional quantized spaces with the quantum time width (Dt=tq). The energy is newly defined as the 4-dimensional space-time volume of E = cDtDV in the present work. It is shown that the wave function of the quantum mechanics is closely related to the warped quantized space shape with the space time-volume. The quantum entanglement and quantum wave function collapse are explained additionally. The special relativity theory is separated into the energy transition associated with the space-time shape transition of the matter and the momentum transition associated with the space-time location transition. Then, the quantum mechanics and the general relativity theory are about the 4-dimensional space-time volume and the 4-dimensional space-time distance, respectively.
