Mass Spectrum and Decay Constants of Heavy Quarkonia

In this paper, a non-relativistic potential model is used to find the solution of radial Schrodinger wave equation by using Crank Nicolson discretization for heavy quarkonia ( ̅, ̅). After solving the Schrodinger radial wave equation, the mass spectrum and hyperfine splitting of heavy quarkonia are calculated with and without relativistic corrections. The root means square radii and decay constants for S and P states of c ̅ and ̅ mesons by using the realistic and simple harmonic oscillator wave functions. The calculated results of mass, hyperfine splitting, root means square radii and decay constants agreed with experimental and theoretically calculated results in the literature.

Mode structure symmetry breaking of reversed shear Alfvén eigenmodes and its impact on the generation of parallel velocity asymmetries in energetic particle distribution

In this work, the gyrokinetic eigenvalue code LIGKA, the drift-kinetic/MHD hybrid code HMGC and the gyrokinetic full-f code TRIMEG-GKX are employed to study the mode structure details of Reversed Shear Alfv\'en Eigenmodes (RSAEs). Using the parameters from an ASDEX-Upgrade plasma, a benchmark with the three different physical models for RSAE without and with Energetic Particles (EPs) is carried out. Reasonable agreement has been found for the mode frequency and the growth rate. Mode structure symmetry breaking (MSSB) is observed when EPs are included, due to the EPs' non-perturbative effects. It is found that the MSSB properties are featured by a finite radial wave phase velocity, and the linear mode structure can be well described by an analytical complex Gaussian expression $\Phi(s)=e^{- \sigma (s-s_0)^2}$ with complex parameters $\sigma$ and $s_0$, where $s$ is the normalized radial coordinate. The mode structure is distorted in opposite {manners} when the EP drive shifted from one side of $q_{min}$ to the other side, and specifically, a non-zero average radial wave number $\langle k_s\rangle$ with opposite signs is generated. The initial EP density profiles and the corresponding mode structures have been used as the input of HAGIS code to study the EP transport. The parallel velocity of EPs is generated in opposite directions, due to different values of the average radial wave number $\langle k_s\rangle$, corresponding to different initial EP density profiles with EP drive shifted away from the $q_{min}$.

Vibrational energies of some diatomic molecules for a modified and deformed potential

A molecular potential model is proposed and the solutions of the radial Schrӧdinger equation in the presence of the proposed potential is obtained. The energy equation and its corresponding radial wave function are calculated using the powerful parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The energies of cesium dimer for different quantum states were numerically obtained for both negative and positive values of the deformed and adjustable parameters. The results for sodium dimer and lithium dimer were calculated numerically using their respective spectroscopic parameters. The calculated values for the three molecules are in excellent agreement with the observed values. Finally, we calculated different expectation values and examined the effects of the deformed and adjustable parameters on the expectation values.

Quantum Theory of Massless Particles in Stationary Axially Symmetric Spacetimes

Quantum equations for massless particles of any spin are considered in stationary uncharged axially symmetric spacetimes. It is demonstrated that up to a normalization function, the angular wave function does not depend on the metric and practically is the same as in the Minkowskian case. The radial wave functions satisfy second order nonhomogeneous differential equations with three nonhomogeneous terms, which depend in a unique way on time and space curvatures. In agreement with the principle of equivalence, these terms vanish locally, and the radial equations reduce to the same homogeneous equations as in Minkowski spacetime.

Study of the Density Distributions and Elastic form Factors of the Exotic Nuclei, 8He And 26F, Via the Three-Body Model

The matter, proton, and neutron density distributions of the ground state, the nuclear root-mean-square (rms) radii, and the elastic form factors of a two- neutron, 8He and 26F, halo nuclei have been studied by the three body model of within the harmonic oscillator (HO) and Woods-Saxon (WS) radial wave functions. The calculated results show that the two body model within the HO and WS radial wave functions succeeds in reproducing the neutron halo in these exotic nuclei. Moreover, the Glauber model at high energy (above several hundred MeV) has been used to calculate the rms radii and reaction cross sections of these nuclei.

The hydrogen atom

The hydrogen atom is described by quantum mechanics. Radial wave functions are displayed, including those for large n (Rydberg atom). Emphasis is placed on the limits of classical motion, as giving a good indication of the atom's size. Positronium has the same size as hydrogen.

Exact Solution of the Schrödinger Equation for Composition of Coulomb and Oscillator Potentials

The spherically symmetric potential is considered whose dependence on the distance r is described by the smooth composition of Coulomb at r < r0 and oscillator at r > r0 potentials. The boundary distance r0 is determined by the parameters of these potentials. The exact continuous solution of the radial Schrödinger equation is expressed in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions. The discrete energy levels are obtained. The graphic illustrations for the energy spectrum and the radial wave functions are presented.
