THEORETICAL THRESHOLD CROSS-SECTION OF ELECTRON-IMPACT IONIZATION OF THE HYDROGEN-ATOM.
Journal of Physics B-Atomic Molecular and Optical Physics. 27, 4715-4733., Oct, Number 19
AbstractSingle differential and total cross sections of the electron-impact ionization of the hydrogen atom are calculated numerically in the two-potential distorted-wave approximation for excess energies from 0 to 1 eV. Partial-wave contributions to the cross sections are also investigated. The near-threshold cross section is parametrized by the power gamma and the proportionality constant a(0) for models with various asymptotic charges, and the dependence of a(0) on the asymptotic charge is studied. The validity range of the threshold power law is also discussed.

Transition between icosahedral and cuboctahedral nanoclusters of lead.
Journal of Physical Chemistry B. 110, 24642-24645., Dec, Number 48
AbstractWe have used ab initio methods to study the possible transition between icosahedral (ico) and cuboctahedral (fcc) structures in lead nanoclusters of sizes up to 309 atoms. Spontaneous fcc-to-ico transition in Pb-13 was observed in the ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at various temperatures. The transition path can be described predominantly by an angular variable s, which can, generally be applied to the similar transitions in clusters of larger sizes and was observed to follow the Mackay model. We have calculated the two-dimensional energy surface that describes the transition in Pb-13 and found a barrierless fcc-to-ico transition path, which is consistent with the observed spontaneous transition in the ab initio MD simulations. The atomic displacements in the transition were identified as one of the vibrational eigenmodes of these two Pb-13 clusters. For clusters of larger sizes (Pb-n, where n = 55, 147, and 309), the possible transitions following similar paths were determined not to be barrierless and the sizes of the barriers were determined by the ab initio elastic band method.
