A Langevin Canonical Approach to the Study of Quantum Stochastic Resonance in Chiral Molecules

  • Germán Rojas-Lorenzo,
  • Helen Clara Peñate-Rodríguez,
  • Anais Dorta-Urra,
  • Pedro Bargueño and
  • Salvador Miret-Artés

29 September 2016

A Langevin canonical framework for a chiral two-level system coupled to a bath of harmonic oscillators is used within a coupling scheme different from the well-known spin-boson model to study the quantum stochastic resonance for chiral molecules. Thi...

Chirality and Relativistic Effects in Os3(CO)12

  • Maxim R. Ryzhikov,
  • Irina V. Mirzaeva,
  • Svetlana G. Kozlova and
  • Yuri V. Mironov

The energy and structural parameters were obtained for all forms of the carbonyl complex of osmium Os3(CO)12 with D3h and D3 symmetries using density functional theory (DFT) methods. The calculations took into account various levels of relativistic e...

The Interplay between Tunneling and Parity Violation in Chiral Molecules

  • Daniel Martínez-Gil,
  • Pedro Bargueño and
  • Salvador Miret-Artés

27 May 2024

In this review, the concepts of quantum tunneling and parity violation are introduced in the context of chiral molecules. A particle moving in a double well potential provides a good model to study the behavior of chiral molecules, where the left wel...

  • Mohamed Mehawed Abdellatif

13 March 2025

Since the 1960s, theorists have claimed that the electroweak force, which unifies parity-conserving electromagnetic and parity-violating weak nuclear forces, induces tiny parity-violating energy differences (10−10–10−21 eV) between...

Neutrinos are a powerful tool for searching physics beyond the standard model of elementary particles. In this review, we present the status of the research on charge-parity-time (CPT) symmetry and Lorentz invariance violations using neutrinos emitte...

The salt-induced peptide formation (SIPF) reaction is a prebiotically plausible mechanism for the spontaneous polymerization of amino acids into peptides on early Earth. Experimental investigations of the SIPF reaction have found that in certain cond...

We consider spontaneous quark transitions between the Λ0 baryon and its resonant states, and (anti)quark transitions between the neutral kaon K0 and the two heavy ηq-mesons (q = c, b). The measured differences in mass deficits are used to...

Urban Photovoltaic (PV) systems can provide large fractions of the residential electric demand at socket parity (i.e., a cost below the household consumer price). This is obtained without necessarily installing electric storage or exploiting tax fund...

The nucleon spin–orbit interaction is a cornerstone of nuclear structure theory, yet its isospin dependence remains insufficiently constrained within modern nuclear energy density functional (EDF) theory. It was recently shown that, within the...

SU(5) × U(1)′ Models with a Vector-like Fermion Family

  • A. Karozas,
  • G. K. Leontaris and
  • I. Tavellaris

24 September 2021

Motivated by experimental measurements indicating deviations from the Standard Model predictions, we discuss F-theory-inspired models, which, in addition to the three chiral generations, contain a vector-like complete fermion family. The analysis tak...
