Journal Article
Roggatz, C. C., Lorch, M., & Benoit, D. M. (2018). The influence of solvent representation on nuclear shielding calculations of protonation states of small biological molecules. Journal of chemical theory and computation : JCTC, 14(5), 2684-2695. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jctc.7b01020

In this study, we assess the influence of solvation on the accuracy and reliability of isotropic nuclear magnetic shielding calculations for amino acids in comparison to experimental data. We focus particularly on the performance of solvation methods...

The complex magnetic properties of Fe/Ir/Fe sandwiches are studied using a hierarchical multi-scale model. The approach uses first principles calculations and thermodynamic models to reveal the equilibrium spinwave, magnetization and dynamic demagnet...

Extragalactic archaeology with the C, N, and O chemical abundances (2018)
Journal Article
Vincenzo, F., & Kobayashi, C. (2018). Extragalactic archaeology with the C, N, and O chemical abundances. Astronomy and Astrophysics, 610, Article L16. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201732395

We predict how the C, N, and O abundances within the interstellar medium of galaxies evolve as functions of the galaxy star formation history (SFH). We adopt a hydrodynamical cosmological simulation, focusing on three star-forming disc galaxies with... Read More about Extragalactic archaeology with the C, N, and O chemical abundances.

Rapidly accreting white dwarfs (RAWDs) have been proposed as contributors to the chemical evolution of heavy elements in the Galaxy. Here, we test this scenario for the first time and determine the contribution of RAWDs to the solar composition of fi...

Role of core-collapse supernovae in explaining Solar System abundances of p nuclides (2018)
Journal Article
Travaglio, C., Rauscher, T., Heger, A., Pignatari, M., & West, C. (2018). Role of core-collapse supernovae in explaining Solar System abundances of p nuclides. The Astrophysical journal, 854(1), Article 18. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aaa4f7

The production of the heavy stable proton-rich isotopes between 74Se and 196Hg—the p nuclides—is due to the contribution from different nucleosynthesis processes, activated in different types of stars. Whereas these processes have been subject to var... Read More about Role of core-collapse supernovae in explaining Solar System abundances of p nuclides.

Violations of a Leggett-Garg inequality without signaling for a photonic qutrit probed with ambiguous measurements (2018)
Journal Article
Wang, K., Emary, C., Xu, M., Zhan, X., Bian, Z., Xiao, L., & Xue, P. (2018). Violations of a Leggett-Garg inequality without signaling for a photonic qutrit probed with ambiguous measurements. Physical Review A, 97(2), Article 020101(R). https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.97.020101

We realize a quantum three-level system with photons distributed among three different spatial and polarization modes. Ambiguous measurements of the state of the qutrit are realized by blocking one out for the three modes at any one time. Using these...
