In the dynamics of atoms and molecules at metal surfaces, electron-hole pair excitations can play a crucial role. In the case of hyperthermal hydrogen atom scattering, they lead to nonadiabatic energy loss and highly inelastic scattering. Molecular dynamics with electronic friction simulation results, based on an isotropic homogeneous electron gas approximation, have previously aligned well with measured kinetic energy loss distributions, indicating that this level of theoretical description is sufficient to describe nonadiabatic effects during scattering.

The energy-variance-based optimization procedures have proven to be useful tools to describe N-electron spectra. However, the resulting wave functions usually present spin-contaminant contributions. The goal of this work is to reduce the spin contamination of the results arising from the unrestricted doubly occupied configuration interaction method in its energy variance minimization version [Alcoba et al.

Cultural consonance, defined as the extent to which one is able to approximate a given cultural model in one's own life, is a highly adaptive theory and method which anthropologists have used for decades to demonstrate direct connections between individuals' variation in relation to meaning systems and their health outcomes. However, it has been limited by use of a "cultural consonance score" which treats cultural consonance unidimensionally. Because people enact cultural models in multiple ways, cultural consonance may be better operationalized multidimensionally.

Quasi-phasematched mixing processes of acoustic waves via second-order nonlinearity are analyzed with two perfectly guided waves generating a leaky wave. The efficiency of such processes is quantified by an acoustic nonlinearity parameter (ANP), defined as the linear growth rate of the leaky wave's amplitude in the initial stage of its spatial evolution. Two approximate ways of estimating the ANP of such processes are suggested.
