Energy spectra with the Dirac equation of the q-deformed generalized Pöschl-Teller potential via the Feynman approach for .

The diatomic molecules of potassium is widely used in industrial chemicals and alternative energy. Besides that, is very useful for researching molecular interactions and energy states, especially in the context of quantum chemistry and spectroscopy. In the present work, a newly proposed diatomic potential model within relativistic and non-relativistic quantum mechanics has been considered, to obtain corresponding energy eigenvalues and related normalized eigenfunctions. The Dirac equation has been solved for an arbitrary spin-orbit quantum number using the path integral technique with the -deformed generalized Pöschl-Teller potential . By including a Pekeris-type approximation to handle the centrifugal factor, it was possible to obtain the spin and pseudospin-symmetric solution of the relativistic energy eigenvalues and wave equation. To assess the correctness of this work, Maple software was used to present some numerical findings for various values of and . With the constraint , it was shown that in the situation of pseudospin symmetry, only bound states exist with negative energy. In the non-relativistic limits, the non-relativistic ro-vibrational energy expression of the diatomic molecule is derived from the relativistic energy equation under spin symmetry. Under Varshni conditions, both vibrational and ro-vibrational energies of the molecule were computed and compared with the data. The average absolute percentage deviations from the data obtained for the potassium molecule are . This demonstrates that the model is a very consistent model to study and characterize diatomic molecules.

Path integral solution for a Dirac particle in a Generalized Inverse Quadratic Yukawa potential

In this work, the analytical solutions of the Dirac equation with the spin and pseudospin symmetry for the Generalized Inverse Quadratic Yukawa (GIQY) potential have been investigated. The problem was approximately addressed using path integral formalism. We present the energy eigenvalues expression along with the upper and lower radial wave functions for any given k-state. The Schrödinger solutions for the GIQY potential and Dirac’s solutions for Kratzer potential, Yukawa potential, inversely quadratic Yukawa potential, and Coulomb potential have also been calculated and compared to results from previous investigations.

Scalable, ab initio protocol for quantum simulating SU(N)×U(1) Lattice Gauge Theories

We propose a protocol for the scalable quantum simulation of SU(N)×U(1) lattice gauge theories with alkaline-earth like atoms in optical lattices in both one- and two-dimensional systems. The protocol exploits the combination of naturally occurring SU(N) pseudo-spin symmetry and strong inter-orbital interactions that is unique to such atomic species. A detailed ab initio study of the microscopic dynamics shows how gauge invariance emerges in an accessible parameter regime, and allows us to identify the main challenges in the simulation of such theories. We provide quantitative results about the requirements in terms of experimental stability in relation to observing gauge invariant dynamics, a key element for a deeper analysis on the functioning of such class of theories in both quantum simulators and computers.

Pseudo-Spin Symmetry and the Hints for Unstable and Superheavy Nuclei

The pseudo-spin symmetry (PSS) provides an important angle to understand nuclear microscopic structure and the novel phenomena found in unstable nuclei. The relativistic Hartree–Fock (RHF) theory, that takes the important degrees of freedom associated with the π-meson and ρ-tensor (ρ-T) couplings into account, provides an appropriate description of the PSS restoration in realistic nuclei, particularly for the pseudo-spin (PS) doublets with high angular momenta (l˜). The investigations of the PSS within the RHF theory are recalled in this paper by focusing on the effects of the Fock terms. Aiming at common artificial shell closures appearing in previous relativistic mean-field calculations, the mechanism responsible for the PSS restoration of high-l˜ orbits is stressed, revealing the manifestation of nuclear in-medium effects on the PSS, and thus, providing qualitative guidance on modeling the in-medium balance between nuclear attractions and repulsions. Moreover, the essential role played by the ρ-T coupling, that contributes mainly via the Fock terms, is introduced as combined with the relations between the PSS and various nuclear phenomena, including the shell structure and the evolution, novel halo and bubble-like phenomena, and the superheavy magicity. As the consequences of the nuclear force in complicated nuclear many-body systems, the PSS itself and the mechanism therein can not only deepen our understanding of nuclear microscopic structure and relevant phenomena, but also provide special insight into the nature of the nuclear force, which can further enrich our knowledge of nuclear physics.

Uniform descriptions of pseudospin symmetries in bound and resonant states

As a continuation of our previous work on the conservation and breaking of the pseudospin symmetry (PSS) in resonant states [Phys. Lett. B 847, 138320 (2023)], in this work, the PSS in nuclear single-particle bound and resonant states are investigated uniformly within a relativistic framework by exploring the poles of the Green's function in spherical Woods-Saxon potentials. As the potential depths increase from zero to finite depths, the PS partners evolve from resonant states to bound states. In this progress, the PSS is broken gradually with energy, width, and density splittings. Specially, the energy and width splittings for the resonant and bound states are directly determined by the ratio of the pseudo spin-orbit potentials between the PS partners. Obvious threshold effect is observed for the energy splitting at a critical potential depth, with which one PS partner has become a quasi-bound state inside the centrifugal barrier while the other one is still a high-energy resonant state outside the centrifugal barrier. The differences in the density distributions of the lower component between the PS partners are manifested in the phase shift for the resonant states and amplitudes for bound states.

Coupled Electronic and Magnonic Topological States in Two-Dimensional Ferromagnets.

Magnetic materials offer a fertile playground for fundamental physics discovery, with not only electronic but also magnonic topological states intensively explored. However, one natural material with both electronic and magnonic nontrivial topologies is still unknown. Here, we demonstrate the coexistence of first-order topological magnon insulators (TMIs) and electronic second-order topological insulators (SOTIs) in 2D honeycomb ferromagnets, giving rise to the nontrivial corner states being connected by the charge-free magnonic edge states. We show that, with symmetry, the phase factor ± ϕ caused by the next nearest-neighbor Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction breaks the pseudo-spin time-reversal symmetry , which leads to the split of magnon bands, i.e., the emergence of TMIs with a nonzero Chern number of , in experimentally feasible candidates of MoI3, CrSiTe3, and CrGeTe3 monolayers. Moreover, protected by the symmetry, the electronic SOTIs characterized by nontrivial corner states are obtained, bridging the topological aspect of fermions and bosons with a high possibility of innovative applications in spintronics devices.

Approximate solutions of the spin and pseudospin symmetries under coshine Yukawa tensor interaction

The approximate solutions of the Dirac equation for spin symmetry and pseudospin symmetry are studied with a coshine Yukawa potential model via the traditional supersymmetric approach (SUSY). To remove the degeneracies in both the spin and pseudospin symmetries, a coshine Yukawa tensor potential is proposed and applied to both the spin symmetry and the pseudospin symmetry. The proposed coshine tensor potential removes the energy degenerate doublets in both the spin symmetry and pseudospin symmetry for a very small value of the tensor strength (H = 0.05). This shows that the coshine Yukawa tensor is more effective than the real Yukawa tensor. The non-relativistic limit of the spin symmetry is obtained by using certain transformations. The results obtained showed that the coshine Yukawa potential and the real Yukawa potential has the same variation with the angular momentum number but the variation of the screening parameter with the energy for the two potential models differs. However, the energy eigenvalues of the coshine Yukawa potential model, are more bounded compared to the energies of the real Yukawa potential model.

Massive Dirac particles based on gapped graphene with Rosen–Morse potential in a uniform magnetic field

Abstract In this paper, we explore the gapped graphene structure in the two-dimensional plane in the presence of the Rosen-Morse potential and the external uniform magnetic field. In order to describe the corresponding structure, we consider the propagation of electrons in graphene as relativistic fermion quasi-particles, and analyze it by the wave functions of two-component spinors with pseudo-spin symmetry using the Dirac equation. Next, to solve and analyze the Dirac equation, we obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors using the Legendre differential equation. After that, we obtain the bounded states of energy depending on the coefficients of Rosen-Morse and magnetic potentials in terms of quantum numbers of principal n and spin-orbit k. Then, the values of the energy spectrum for the ground state and the first excited state are calculated, and the wave functions and the corresponding probabilities are plotted in terms of coordinates r. In what follows, we explore the band structure of gapped graphene by the modified dispersion relation and write it in terms of the two-dimensional wave vectors K x and K y . Finally, the energy bands are plotted in terms of the wave vectors K x and K y with and without the magnetic term.

Pseudospin symmetry: Microscopic origin of the ground-state inversion in neutron-rich odd-A Cu isotopes

The role of the pseudospin symmetry in the inversion of the ground-state spin in Cu isotopes is investigated within the covariant density functional theory (CDFT). The density functional PC-PK1 gives a good agreement with the observed ground-state properties of the odd-A 69−79Cu. In particular, the inversion of the ground-state spin at A=75 is reproduced nicely, which can be explained by the level crossing between the proton pseudospin partners π2p3/2 and π1f5/2. It is found that the pseudospin symmetry plays a dominant role in the evolution of the energy splittings between the pseudospin partners. By comparing with the results of the nonrelativistic DFTs, our studies suggest that the pseudospin symmetry is essential to the shell evolution around this region.

Pseudospin symmetry in resonant states in deformed nucleus 154Dy

It is known that pseudospin symmetry plays a crucial role in formation of many physical phenomena. By combining the relativistic mean field theory with the complex momentum representation method, the pseudospin symmetry in the single particle resonant states in the deformed nucleus [Formula: see text]Dy is investigated through the energy and width splittings, the quadrupole deformation parameter, the radial density distributions and occupation probabilities of the pseudospin doublets. Near the continuum threshold, the pseudospin symmetry is well reserved in both bound and resonant states. The energy and width splittings of pseudospin doublets in resonant states exhibit correlations with the deformation and quantum numbers. The good pseudospin symmetry is expected with lower pseudo-orbital angular momentum projection [Formula: see text] and the main quantum number N. In general, an increase in deformation tends to weaken the quality of the pseudospin symmetry. The understanding of the evolution of the pseudospin doublets in the resonant states has been deepened by studying the pseudospin symmetry in the deformed nuclei.

New spin and p-spin symmetries of the deformed Dirac equation for the IMRQHPs including the improved YLT interaction in three-dimensional extended relativistic quantum mechanics symmetries

In this paper, the modified Dirac equation (MDE) has been solved approximately for improved Manning–Rosen plus quasi-Hellman potentials (IMRQHPs), including the improved Yukawa tensor interaction under new spin symmetry and pseudospin symmetry for arbitrary spin–orbit number [Formula: see text], an appropriate approximation employed on the centrifugal terms in the symmetries of three-dimensional extended relativistic quantum mechanics (3D-ERQM). This potential is a superposition of Manning–Rosen plus quasi-Hellman potentials and some other exponential terms. Through the application of both new approximations to deal with the centrifugal term, Bopp’s shift method and the independent-time perturbation theory method, the recent modified approximate energy corrections under IMRQHPs are obtained for nuclei [Formula: see text]O and [Formula: see text]F and (O2, I2, N2, H2, LiH, CO and NO) diatomic molecules in 3D-ERQM and three-dimensional extended non-relativistic quantum mechanics (3D-ENRQM) symmetries. The recent values that we get appear sensitive to [Formula: see text], which are known as the discrete atomic quantum numbers, the mixed potential depths ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]) and [Formula: see text], the range of the potential [Formula: see text] and non-commutativity parameters [Formula: see text]. In both 3D-ERQM and 3D-ENRQM symmetries, we show that the recent corrections obtained on the new bound states under IMRQHPs are infinitesimal to the principal part of energy in the ordinary cases of 3D-RQM and 3D-NRQM symmetries. In the new symmetries of 3D-ERQM symmetries, it is not possible to get the exact analytical solutions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], only the approximate solutions are possible. In addition, we discussed in detail the non-relativistic study of the studied mixed potentials. Four special cases, i.e. we investigated some special cases in the context of modified Schrödinger theories. In the framework of known relativistic quantum mechanics, we have clearly demonstrated that the modified Schrödinger equation can be represented as the Dirac equation under the influence of IMRQHPs.

Conservation and breaking of pseudospin symmetry

Pseudospin symmetry (PSS) is a relativistic dynamical symmetry connected with the lower component of the Dirac spinor. Here, we investigate the conservation and breaking of PSS in the single-nucleon resonant states, as an example, using Green's function method that provides a novel way to precisely describe not only the resonant energies and widths but also the spacial density distributions for both narrow and wide resonances. The PSS conservation and breaking are perfectly displayed in the evolution of resonant parameters and density distributions with the potential depth: In the PSS limit, i.e., when the attractive scalar and repulsive vector potentials have the same magnitude but opposite sign, PSS is exactly conserved with strictly the same energy and width between the PS partners as well as identical density distributions of the lower components. As the potential depth increases, the PSS is broken gradually with energy and width splittings and a phase shift in the density distributions.

Exploration of origin and breaking mechanism of pseudospin symmetry in relativistic point-coupling model with similarity renormalization group

The pseudospin symmetry (PSS) is an important physical concept in atomic nuclei. The relativistic point-coupling model is first used to explore the origin and breaking mechanism of PSS in real nuclei with 208Pb as an illustrated example. PSS observed in the single particle spectra of heavy nuclei is reproduced in the present calculation. The influences of the different point-coupling interactions on PSS are investigated, it is found that the four-fermion scalar and vector couplings play a dominate role at PSS. The quality of PSS depends on the competition of four-fermion scalar and vector couplings. Those the PSS is better for the weakly bound levels and the energy splittings are more sensitive to the interaction strengths for the deeply bound levels are well explained in terms of the derivative of Σ potential with r. In combination with the similarity renormalization group, the origin and breaking mechanism of PSS are clarified.

Pseudospin collapse, multidirectional supercollimations, and all-electrons transmission and reflection in irradiated 8-Pmmn borophene

Propagation of ballistic electrons shows various optical-like phenomena. Here, we demonstrate a flexible method to modulate the band structure and manipulate the electron beams propagation in 8-Pmmn borophene by an off-resonant linearly polarized light. It is proposed to form fully tunable anisotropic dispersion by changing the polarization direction of the off-resonant light in an experimentally controllable way. Accompanied with it, the pseudospin symmetry of the electronic state in 8-Pmmn borophene collapses from a helical form into x or y direction, which undergoes a dramatic alteration. As a result of the wedge-shaped dispersions, the electron wave packet can be guided to propagate with undistorted shape along different directions, multidirectional electron supercollimations are exhibited in the system. Moreover, by constructing the optical sensing n–p and n–p–n junctions, interesting transport phenomena such as all-electrons Klein tunneling and omnidirectional reflection are realized by modulating the illumination parameters of the off-resonant light, both of them are independent of the incident energy and wave vector. It is expected that the peculiar transport properties in 8-Pmmn borophene modified by the off-resonant light field can offer more opportunities for device applications in valleytronics and electron-optics.

Arbitrary (k, l) States-Solutions of the Dirac and Schrödinger Equations Interacting with Improved Spatially-Dependent Mass Coulomb Potential with an improved Coulomb-like tensor interaction Model for H-atoms from 3D-RNCS and 3D-NRNCS symmetries

The improved spatially dependent mass Coulomb potential with an improved Coulomb-like tensor interaction (ISDM(CP-CLTI)) model has been used to investigate the new bound state solutions of the deformed Dirac equation under the condition of spin symmetry and pseudospin symmetry in the 3D-relativistic noncommutative space (3D-RNCS) symmetries. The combination of spatially dependent mass Coulomb potential with Coulomb-like tensor interaction (ISDM(CP-CLTI)) and the terms (1/r^3 and 1/r^4 ) which are connected with the induced couplings (LΘ and L ̃Θ) produced from the topological defects of space-space gives ISDM(CP-CLTI) model. The new relativistic and non-relativistic energy eigenvalues for the hydrogen atoms (H-atoms) such as He+, Li+2, and Be3+ under the ISDM(CP-CLTI) model have been derived within the parameters of the parametric Bopp shift method and standard perturbation theory. The new values E_nc^sp(n,C,m_0,m_1,H,Θ,τ,χ,j,l,s,m) and E_nc^ps(n,C,m_0,m_1,H,Θ,τ,χ,j,l,l ̃,s ̃,m ̃) that we obtained appeared to be sensitive to the quantum atomic discrete quantum numbers (j,k,l,s,m,l ̃,s ̃,m ̃), the mixed potential depths (C/q,m_0,m_1,H), and noncommutativity parameters (NP) (Θ,σ,χ). Within the context of relativistic extended quantum mechanics, we have obtained certain significant special cases that, in our view, will be interesting to the specialized researcher. When we applied the three simultaneous limitations (Θ,σ,χ)→(0,0,0), NP we were able to retrieve the typical results of relativistic and non-relativistic cases in the literature. Our new model presented new physical features compared to other models known in the literature.

Arbitrary (k, l) States-Solutions of the Dirac and Schrödinger Equations Interacting with Improved Spatially-Dependent Mass Coulomb Potential with an improved Coulomb-like tensor interaction Model for H-atoms from 3D-RNCS and 3D-NRNCS symmetries

The deformed Dirac equation has been investigated, in the context of 3D-relativistic noncommutative space (3D-RNCS) symmetries, using the improved spatially dependent mass Coulomb potential with an improved Coulomb-like tensor interaction (ISDM(CP-CLTI)) model under the conditions of spin symmetry and pseudospin symmetry. The ISDM(CP-CLTI) model is the combining the spatially dependent mass Coulomb potential with the Coulomb-like tensor interaction (CP-CLTI) and the two central terms that are generated to the topological defects of spacespace. Within the confines of the parametric Bopp shift method and conventional perturbation theory, the new relativistic and non-relativistic energy eigenvalues for the hydrogen atoms ( H-atoms), such as He+,Li+2, and Be3+ under the ISDM(CP-CLTI) model have been derived. The novel values Encsp(n,C,m0,m1,H,Θ,τ,χ,j,l,s,m) and Encps(n,C,m0,m1,H,Θ,τ,χ,j,l,l̃,s̃,m̃) that we discovered examined to be dependent on the noncommutativity parameters (NP) (Θ,σ,χ), mixed potential depths C/q,m0,m1,H), and quantum atomic discrete quantum numbers (j,k,l,s,m,l̃,s̃,m̃). We have obtained several interesting special examples within the framework of relativistic extended quantum mechanics, which we believe will be of interest to the expert researcher. We were able to retrieve the typical results of relativistic and non-relativistic examples in the literature when we applied the three simultaneous constraints (Θ,σ,χ)→(0,0,0). Compared to previous models that are known from the literature, our new model had novel physical characteristics.
