    • Energy Transfer in O Collisions with He Isotopes and Helium Escape from Mars 

      Bovino, S.; Zhang, Peng; Gianturco, F. A.; Dalgarno, Alexander; Kharchenko, Vasili A. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011)
      [1] Accurate data on energy-transfer collisions between hot oxygen atoms and the atmospheric helium gas on Mars, are reported. Anisotropic cross sections for elastic collisions of O(3P) and O(1D) atoms with helium gas have ...

    • Inexpensive Microscopy for Introductory Laboratory Courses 

      Peidle, Joseph D.; Stokes, Chris; Hart, Robert M; Franklin, Melissa; Newburgh, Ronald; Pahk, Joon; Rueckner, Wolfgang H. E.; Samuel, Aravinthan DT (American Association of Physics Teachers, 2009)
      We present an inexpensive apparatus for bright field and fluorescence microscopy with video capture, suitable for introductory laboratory courses. Experiments on Brownian motion and the Boltzmann distribution of suspended ...

    • Relativistic Magnetotransport in Graphene 

      Mueller, Markus; Fritz, Lars; Sachdev, Subir; Schmalian, Joerg (American Institute of Physics, 2009)
      We study the thermal and electric transport of a fluid of interacting Dirac fermions as they arise in single-layer graphene. We include Coulomb interactions, a dilute density of charged impurities and the presence of a ...

    • Trapping Hydrogen Atoms From a Neon-Gas Matrix: A Theoretical Simulation 

      Bovino, S.; Zhang, Peng; Kharchenko, Vasili A.; Dalgarno, Alexander (American Institute of Physics, 2009)
      Hydrogen is of critical importance in atomic and molecular physics and the development of a simple and efficient technique for trapping cold and ultracold hydrogen atoms would be a significant advance. In this study we ...
