This article focuses on most recent advances in the linearized semiclassical initial value
representation (LSC‐IVR)/classical Wigner model that includes quantum effects with …

Phase transitions are among the most impressive phenomena occurring in nature. They are
an example of emergent behavior, ie, of collective properties having no direct counterpart in …

Abstract Thermal expansion of FeNi Invar and zinc-blende CdTe was investigated from the
view point of local structure using the extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) …

We report a new method for calculating the Wigner transform of the Boltzmann operator in
the canonical ensemble. The transform is accomplished by writing the Boltzmann operator in …

A simple model is presented for treating local imaginary frequencies that are important in the
study of quantum effects in chemical reactions and various dynamical processes in …

In the past decades, considerable efforts have been made to understand the critical features
of both classical and quantum long-range (LR) interacting models. The case of the …

We have investigated the anharmonicity and quantum effects in the Invar alloy Fe 64.6 Ni
35.4 that shows anomalously small thermal expansion. We have performed Fe and Ni K …

Quantum coherence is a fundamental common trait of quantum phenomena, from the
interference of matter waves to quantum degeneracy of identical particles. Despite its …

The path-integral effective-potential (EP) method was applied to the calculations of extended
x-ray-absorption fine-structure (EXAFS) cumulants. Temperature dependence of the EXAFS …

One challenge of physics is to explain how collective properties arise from microscopic
interactions. Indeed, interactions form the building blocks of almost all physical theories and …
