Title: Many-body theory for positronium scattering and pickoff annihilation in noble-gas atoms
Authors: A. R. Swann, D. G. Green and G. F. Gribakin
Abstract summary: Many-body-theory approach to positronium-atom interactions developed in [Phys. Rev. Lett. textbf120, 183402] is applied to the sequence of noble-gas atoms He-Xe. The Dyson equation is solved separately for an electron and positron moving in the field of the atom, with the entire system enclosed in a hard-wall cavity.

Abstract: The many-body-theory approach to positronium-atom interactions developed in [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{120}, 183402 (2018)] is applied to the sequence of noble-gas atoms He-Xe. The Dyson equation is solved separately for an electron and positron moving in the field of the atom, with the entire system enclosed in a hard-wall spherical cavity. The two-particle Dyson equation is solved to give the energies and wave functions of the Ps eigenstates in the cavity. From these, we determine the scattering phase shifts and cross sections, and values of the pickoff annihilation parameter $^1Z_\text{eff}$ including short-range electron-positron correlations via vertex enhancement factors. Comparisons are made with available experimental data for elastic and momentum-transfer cross sections and $^1Z_\text{eff}$. Values of $^1Z_\text{eff}$ for He and Ne, previously reported in [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{120}, 183402 (2018)], are found to be in near-perfect agreement with experiment, and for Ar, Kr, and Xe within a factor of 1.2.

We provide insights into key properties of Cr(IV)-based molecules aimed at assisting chemical design of efficient molecular qubits.

Universal energy-dependent pseudopotential for the two-body problem of confined ultracold atoms [4.514953268743484]
Two-body scattering amplitude and energy spectrum of confined ultracold atoms are of fundamental importance for studies of ultracold atom physics. For many systems, one can efficiently calculate these quantities via the zero-range Huang-Yang pseudopotential (HYP) We show a method based on the quantum defect theory, with which $hat a_rm eff$ can be analytically derived for systems with van der Waals inter-atomic interaction.

The analysis of the wavefunction for electrons and protons after the pulse are presented, where we find $U_p$ is absorbed by the Freeman resonances between two excited ungerade states.

Anisotropy-mediated reentrant localization [62.997667081978825]
We consider a 2d dipolar system, $d=2$, with the generalized dipole-dipole interaction $sim r-a$, and the power $a$ controlled experimentally in trapped-ion or Rydberg-atom systems. We show that the spatially homogeneous tilt $beta$ of the dipoles giving rise to the anisotropic dipole exchange leads to the non-trivial reentrant localization beyond the locator expansion.
