DFT-based many-body analysis of electron transport through molecules

Posted by klaurent Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Joseph M. Thijssen | Summary:We present a method which uses density functional theory (DFT) to treat transport through a single molecule connected to two conducting leads for the weak and intermediate coupling. This case is not accessible to standard non-equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) calculations. Our method is based on a mapping of the […]

An Extended and More Sensitive Search for Periodicities in RXTE/ASM X-ray Light Curves

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Edmund Bertschinger | Summary:We present the results of a systematic search in approximately 14 years of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer All-Sky Monitor data for evidence of periodicities not reported by Wen et al. (2006). Two variations of the commonly used Fourier analysis search method have been employed to achieve significant improvements in sensitivity. […]
