Excited state carriers, such as excitons, can diffuse on the 100 nm to micron length scale in molecular materials but only delocalize over short length scales due to coupling between electronic and vibrational degrees-of-freedom. Here, we leverage the locality of excitons to adaptively solve the hierarchy of pure states equations (HOPS). We demonstrate that our adaptive HOPS (adHOPS) methodology provides a formally exact and size-invariant (, ) scaling algorithm for simulating mesoscale quantum dynamics. Finally, we provide proof-of-principle calculations for exciton diffusion on linear chains containing up to 1000 molecules.

Pooling the complex survey data across the 64 lower and middle-income countries: A study on antibiotic usage in under-five children.

Background: Antibiotic exposure for fever/cough has been rising alarmingly, especially among children under five in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This excessive use could result in higher healthcare costs, and antibiotic resistance is an alarming trend in developing countries. As a result, it's crucial to look at the variables that affect antibiotic exposure and highlight the subgroups among whom antibiotic abuse is the most prevalent.

A Kohn-Sham (KS) density-functional energy expression is derived for any (ground or excited) state within a given many-electron ensemble along with the stationarity condition it fulfills with respect to the ensemble density, thus giving access to both physical energy levels and individual-state densities, in principle exactly. We also provide working equations for the evaluation of the latter from the true static ensemble density-density linear response function. Unlike in Gould's recent ensemble potential functional approach to excited states [arXiv:2404.

The exact mechanisms by which low education gives rise to COVID-19 mortality, however, are less clear.
Methods: We propose that low education predicts COVID-19 morality because low education gives rise to a less engaged, less agentic approach to one's own healthcare.

Single-Molecule Junctions (SMJs) are key platforms for the exploration of electron transport at the molecular scale. In this study, we present a method that employs different exchange-correlation density functionals for the molecule and the lead domains in an SMJ, enabling the selection of the optimal one for each part. This is accomplished using a formally exact projection-based density-functional theory (DFT-in-DFT) embedding technique combined with the non-equilibrium Green's function method to predict zero-bias conductance.

Introduction: The absence of a biological parent from a child's existence had a negative impact on the child's growth, socialization, psychological wellbeing, and economic productivity. Developing nations like Ethiopia experience a huge number of orphans and family-unbounded children. But the exact figure has not been reported yet at the national level recently.
