A multi-layer multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree approach to lattice models beyond one dimension.

The multi-layer multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) approach is an efficient method to study quantum dynamics in real and imaginary time. The present work explores its potential to describe quantum fluids. The multi-layer MCTDH approach in second quantization representation is used to study lattice models beyond one dimension at finite temperatures.

Accurate Quantum Dynamics Calculations for the Cl + CH/CHD/CD Reaction Rates.

Full-dimensional quantum dynamics simulations of the reaction of Cl with methane and its isotopomers are reported. Thermal rate constants are computed for the Cl + CH → HCl + CH, Cl + CHD → HCl + CD, and Cl + CD → DCl + CD reactions. Temperatures between 200 and 500 K are considered.

QuTree: A tree tensor network package.

We present QuTree, a C++ library for tree tensor network approaches. QuTree provides class structures for tensors, tensor trees, and related linear algebra functions that facilitate the fast development of tree tensor network approaches such as the multilayer multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree approach or the density matrix renormalization group approach and its various extensions. We investigate the efficiency of relevant tensor and tensor network operations and show that the overhead for managing the network structure is negligible, even in cases with a million leaves and small tensors.

Dual-Use Self-Assembled Monolayer Controlling Charge Carrier Extraction in Organic Solar Cells.

The development and use of interface materials are essential to the continued advancement of organic solar cells (OSCs) performance. Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) materials have drawn attention because of their simple structure and affordable price. Due to their unique properties, they may be used in inverted devices as a modification layer for modifying ZnO or as a hole transport layer (HTL) in place of typical poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) in conventional devices.

Men with erectile dysfunction (ED) should be screened for cardiovascular risk factors - Cost-benefit considerations in Swiss men.

Current evidence indicates that erectile dysfunction (ED) is an independent risk factor for future cardiovascular events. This study aimed to estimate the cost-effectiveness of screening and subsequent preventive treatment for cardiovascular risk factors among men newly diagnosed with ED from the Swiss healthcare system perspective. Based on known data on ED and cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevalence and incidence costs and effects of a screening intervention for cardiovascular risk including corresponding cardiovascular prevention in men with ED were calculated for the Swiss population over a period of 10 years.

Diagnostic accuracy of coronary artery stenosis and thrombosis assessment using unenhanced multiplanar 3D post-mortem cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Background: A 3D sequence was introduced to unenhanced post-mortem cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (PMCMR) to enable multiplanar coronary artery image analysis and to investigate its diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of coronary artery stenosis and thrombosis.

Materials And Methods: N = 200 forensic cases with suspected coronary artery pathology underwent 3 Tesla PMCMR (sequence used: T2 weighted transversal 3D turbo spin echo) before autopsy. Main coronary artery stenosis and thrombosis were assessed in PMCMR by multiplanar image analysis by two observers.

Erectile dysfunction: role of computed tomography cavernosography in the diagnosis and treatment planning of venous leak.

Background: Venous leak appears to be the most common cause of vasculogenic erectile dysfunction (ED), which can be treated with venous embolization. Traditionally, conventional cavernosography was used for the diagnosis and treatment planning of venous leak. Recently, computed tomography (CT) cavernosography was introduced as a novel cross-sectional imaging method proposed to be advantageous over conventional cavernosography.

Electronic and Photochemical Passivation by a Classic Sunscreen Material Leading to Reduced Losses and Enhanced Stability in Organic Solar Cells.

Organic solar cells (OSCs) have been a popular topic of research for a long time. As a well-known electron transport layer (ETL) material for inverted device architecture, sol-gel-derived zinc oxide (ZnO) displays certain defective surfaces that cause excessive charge recombination and lower device performance. While ultraviolet (UV)-light soaking is sometimes necessary for the ZnO layer to function properly, the latter can also cause the photodegradation of conjugated organic semiconductors.

Absolute energy levels in nanodiamonds of different origins and surface chemistries.

Nanodiamonds (NDs) are versatile, broadly available nanomaterials with a set of features highly attractive for applications from biology over energy harvesting to quantum technologies. synthesis and surface chemistry, NDs can be tuned from the sub-micron to the single-digit size, from conductive to insulating, from hydrophobic to hydrophilic, and from positively to negatively charged surface by simple annealing processes. Such ND diversity makes it difficult to understand and take advantage of their electronic properties.

A numerically exact correlation discrete variable representation for multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree calculations.

The correlation discrete variable representation (CDVR) enables (multilayer) multi-configurational time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) calculations with general potentials. The CDVR employs a set of grids corresponding to single-particle functions to efficiently evaluate all potential matrix elements appearing in the MCTDH equations of motion. In standard CDVR approaches, the number of grid points employed is tied to the number of corresponding single-particle functions.

Atherosclerotic disease of erection-related arteries is a major reason for erectile dysfunction (ED). Lp(a) has been implied in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis in the coronary and lower limb arteries. Here, we investigated if Lp(a) plays a specific role in ED due with symptomatic pelvic artery atherosclerosis.

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is now diagnosed by an ILD-board consisting of radiologists, pulmonologists, and pathologists. They discuss the combination of computed tomography (CT) images, pulmonary function tests, demographic information, and histology and then agree on one of the 200 ILD diagnoses. Recent approaches employ computer-aided diagnostic tools to improve detection of disease, monitoring, and accurate prognostication.
