• Abstract: A partial-wave method is developed to deal with small molecules dominated by a central atom as an extension of earlier single-center methods. In particular, a model potential for the water molecule is expanded over a basis of spherical harmonics. A finite element method is employed to generate local polynomial functions in subintervals over a finite range for the radial variable. The angular parts of the system are represented by spherical harmonics. The problem of Stark resonances is treated with the exterior complex scaling method which incorporates a wavefunction discontinuity at the scaling radius. The resultant non-hermitian matrix eigenvalue problem yields resonance positions and widths (decay rates). We present these DC Stark shifts and exponential decay rates for the valence orbitals $1b_1$, $3a_1$, and the bonding orbital $1b_2$. Furthermore, comparison is made with total molecular decay rates and DC shifts obtained recently within the Hartree-Fock and coupled-cluster approaches.

• Radiative pumping vs vibrational relaxation of molecular polaritons: a bosonic mapping approach [0.0]
  We present a formalism to study molecular polaritons in the collective regime, based on the bosonization of molecular vibronic states. This formalism accommodates an arbitrary number of molecules $N$, excitations and internal vibronic structures. We show that vibrational relaxation via this scattering is enhanced when the energy difference between the emission and the lower polariton transition corresponds to the vibrational excitation created in the Raman process.

  We use the exterior complex scaling approach to find resonance positions and decay rates. We focus on the three outermost (valence) orbitals, as they are dominating the ionization process. For the case of fields along the molecular axis we also compare results as a function of the number of spherical harmonics included.

  We study the influence of a linear energy bias on a non-equilibrium excitation on a chain of molecules coupled to local phonons. We uncover structured and discrete vibronic resonance behavior fundamentally different from both linear response theory and homogeneous polaron dynamics. Potential applications range from molecular electronics to optical lattices and artificial light harvesting via vibronic engineering of coherent quantum transport.

  We study the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in a thin disk made from a $p$-wave superconductor. We analyze the second-order topological corner modes that arise when an in-plane magnetic field is applied. We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.
