New Developments in FormCalc 8.4
We present new developments in FeynArts 3.9 and FormCalc 8.4, in particular
the MSSMCT model file including the complete one-loop renormalization,
vectorization/parallelization issues, and the interface to the Ninja library
for tensor reduction.Comment: 7 pages, proceedings contribution to Loops & Legs 2014, April 27-May

Antiferro-quadrupole state of orbital-degenerate Kondo lattice model with f^2 configuration
To clarify a key role of orbitals in the emergence of
antiferro-quadrupole structure in PrPb, we investigate the ground-state
property of an orbital-degenerate Kondo lattice model by numerical
diagonalization techniques. In PrPb, Pr has a
configuration and the crystalline-electric-field ground state is a non-Kramers
doublet . In a - coupling scheme, the state is
described by two local singlets, each of which consists of two electrons
with one in and another in orbitals. Since in a cubic
structure, has localized nature, while orbitals are
rather itinerant, we propose the orbital-degenerate Kondo lattice model for an
effective Hamiltonian of PrPb. We show that an antiferro-orbital state is
favored by the so-called double-exchange mechanism which is characteristic of
multi-orbital systems.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures, Proceedings of Skutterudite2007 (September 26-30,

Spatially dependent Rabi oscillations: an approach to sub-diffraction-limited CARS microscopy
We present a theoretical investigation of coherent anti-Stokes Raman
scattering (CARS) that is modulated by periodically depleting the ground state
population through Rabi oscillations driven by an additional control laser. We
find that such a process generates optical sidebands in the CARS spectrum and
that the frequency of the sidebands depends on the intensity of the control
laser light field. We show that analyzing the sideband frequency upon scanning
the beams across the sample allows one to spatially resolve emitter positions
where a spatial resolution of 65 nm, which is well below the diffraction-limit,
can be obtained

CuCoS Deposited on TiO: Controlling the pH Value Boosts Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution
Metallic spinel-type CuCoS nanoparticles were deposited on nanocrystalline TiO (P25®), forming heterostructure nanocomposites. The nanocomposites were characterized in detail by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), nitrogen sorption (BET) and UV/Vis spectroscopy. Variation of the CuCoS:TiO ratio to an optimum value generated a catalyst which shows a very high photocatalytic H production rate at neutral pH of 32.3 µmol/h (0.72 mLh), which is much larger than for pure TiO (traces of H). The catalyst exhibits an extraordinary long-term stability and after 70 h irradiation time about 2 mmol H were generated. An increased light absorption and an efficient charge separation for the sample with the optimal CuCoS:TiO ratio is most probably responsible for the high catalytic activity
Dosimeter-Type NOx Sensing Properties of KMnO4 and Its Electrical Conductivity during Temperature Programmed Desorption
An impedimetric NOx dosimeter based on the NOx sorption material KMnO4 is proposed. In addition to its application as a low level NOx dosimeter, KMnO4 shows potential as a precious metal free lean NOx trap material (LNT) for NOx storage catalysts (NSC) enabling electrical in-situ diagnostics. With this dosimeter, low levels of NO and NO2 exposure can be detected electrically as instantaneous values at 380 °C by progressive NOx accumulation in the KMnO4 based sensitive layer. The linear NOx sensing characteristics are recovered periodically by heating to 650 °C or switching to rich atmospheres. Further insight into the NOx sorption-dependent conductivity of the KMnO4-based material is obtained by the novel eTPD method that combines electrical characterization with classical temperature programmed desorption (TPD). The NOx loading amount increases proportionally to the NOx exposure time at sorption temperature. The cumulated NOx exposure, as well as the corresponding NOx loading state, can be detected linearly by electrical means in two modes: (1) time-continuously during the sorption interval including NOx concentration information from the signal derivative or (2) during the short-term thermal NOx release
