    Non-adiabatic mass correction to the rovibrational states of molecules. Numerical application for the H2+_2^+ molecular ion

    Full text link
    General transformation expressions of the second-order non-adiabatic Hamiltonian of the atomic nuclei, including the kinetic-energy correction terms, are derived upon the change from laboratory-fixed Cartesian coordinates to general curvilinear coordinate systems commonly used in rovibrational computations. The kinetic-energy or so-called "mass-correction" tensor elements are computed with the stochastic variational method and floating explicitly correlated Gaussian functions for the H2+_2^+ molecular ion in its ground electronic state. (Further numerical applications for the 4^4He2+_2^+ molecular ion are presented in the forthcoming paper, Paper II.) The general, curvilinear non-adiabatic kinetic energy operator expressions are used in the examples and non-adiabatic rovibrational energies and corrections are determined by solving the rovibrational Schr\"odinger equation including the diagonal Born--Oppenheimer as well as the mass-tensor corrections

    The procustian approach of the job's design is widely spread in actual society too. Several researches in European countries regarding working conditions, employees' satisfaction and work stress marked the fact that there are many stressful jobs. The most serious consequence of work - stress is the lack of balance between private and professional life. Western organizations offer various support instruments to their employees in order to improve the balance between work and private life. There are employees who have difficult demeanour due to stress and exhaustment. The approach of problem-employees demands great skill and ability.bed of Procust, working conditions, balance between work and life, support company politics, problem-employees

    Towards breaking the curse of dimensionality in (ro)vibrational computations of molecular systems with multiple large-amplitude motions

    Full text link
    Methodological progress is reported in the challenging direction of a black-box-type variational solution of the (ro)vibrational Schr\"odinger equation applicable to floppy, polyatomic systems with multiple large-amplitude motions. This progress is achieved through the combination of (i) the numerical kinetic-energy operator (KEO) approach of [E. M\'atyus, G. Czak\'o, and A. G. Cs\'asz\'ar, J. Chem. Phys. 130, 134112 (2009)] and (ii) the Smolyak non-product grid method of [G. Avila and T. Carrington, Jr., J. Chem. Phys. 131, 174103 (2009)]. The numerical representation of the KEO makes it possible to choose internal coordinates and a body-fixed frame best suited for the molecular system. The Smolyak scheme reduces the size of the direct-product grid representation by orders of magnitude, while retaining some of the useful features of it. As a result, multi-dimensional (ro)vibrational states are computed with system-adapted coordinates, a compact basis- and grid-representation, and an iterative eigensolver. Details of the methodological developments and the first numerical applications are presented for the CH4_4\cdotAr complex treated in full (12D) vibrational dimensionality

    Non-adiabatic mass-correction functions and rovibrational states of 4^4He2+_2^+ (X 2Σu+X\ ^2\Sigma_\text{u}^+)

    The mass-correction functions in the second-order non-adiabatic Hamiltonian are computed for the 4^4He2+^+_2 molecular ion using the variational method, floating explicitly correlated Gaussian functions, and a general coordinate-transformation formalism. When non-adiabatic rovibrational energy levels are computed using these (coordinate-dependent) mass-correction functions and a highly accurate potential energy and diagonal Born-Oppenheimer correction curve, significantly improved theoretical results are obtained for the nine rotational and two rovibrational intervals known from high-resolution spectroscopy experiments

    Risk and regulation of financial groups and conglomerates

    Get PDF
    Recent financial market trends, such as convergence and the spread of conglomerates have changed the nature and structure of the financial sector’s risk profile. The paper investigates this issue from a regulatory policy aspect. Regulatory failures in the 1990s (BCCI, Barings) and the development of the market demonstrate that even „best regulatory practice” does not fulfil the requirements of transparency and efficiency. We investigate the improvement of prudential legislation for financial groups on the example of EU legislation, summarize recommendations made by international forums, and present existing regulatory frameworks in certain countries. In the light of these we address major lacuna in the relevant Hungarian legislation, even going beyond requirements in the field of EU harmonization.financial convergence, financial conglomerates, prudential regulation, European Union, Hungary.

    Diffraction and near-zero transmission of flexural phonons at graphene grain boundaries

    Get PDF
    Graphene grain boundaries are known to affect phonon transport and thermal conductivity, suggesting that they may be used to engineer the phononic properties of graphene. Here, the effect of two buckled grain boundaries on long-wavelength flexural acoustic phonons has been investigated as a function of angle of incidence using molecular dynamics. The flexural acoustic mode has been chosen due to its importance to thermal transport. It is found that the transmission through the boundaries is strongly suppressed for incidence angles close to 35^\circ. Also, the grain boundaries are found to act as diffraction gratings for the phonons

    CONSIDERATIONS ON THE MEASURES TO COUNTER THE RISK OF BANKRUPTCY FOR SMES DURING THE FINANCIAL CRISIS

    The financial crisis in Romania has expressed in an eloquent manner and meant large negative effects, such as external factors generated by trigger of the financial crisis in Romania in October 2008 and internal factors for society that fundamentally influenced the decreasing of funding in 2009. Promotion of private initiative is, in our opinion, one of the methods that attenuate the financial effort of state for social segment which generates costs and, is producing revenue for the state. In this paper we promote the idea of opening a fundamental process of restructuring the SME’s management mentality, that of safeguarding of the enterprises with existing instruments, but also with new proposals to the Government, for regeneration as soon as possible of the country's economic and human factors capable of working.bankruptcy, SME, Reorganization, companies, crisis, fusion.
