Nanoplasmonics simulations at the basis set limit through completeness-optimized, local numerical basis sets

We present an approach for generating local numerical basis sets of improving accuracy for first-principles nanoplasmonics simulations within time-dependent density functional theory. The method is demonstrated for copper, silver, and gold nanoparticles that are of experimental interest but computationally demanding due to the semi-core d-electrons that affect their plasmonic response. The basis sets are constructed by augmenting numerical atomic orbital basis sets by truncated Gaussian-type orbitals generated by the completeness-optimization scheme, which is applied to the photoabsorption spectra of homoatomic metal atom dimers. We obtain basis sets of improving accuracy up to the complete basis set limit and demonstrate that the performance of the basis sets transfers to simulations of larger nanoparticles and nanoalloys as well as to calculations with various exchange-correlation functionals. This work promotes the use of the local basis set approach of controllable accuracy in first-principles nanoplasmonics simulations and beyond.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figure

Customer Information System Design in Metro Laundry

Customer information systems at Metro Laundry is still done manually, the data isprocessed in such a complexity of customer data, transaction data Cleaning up thedata so that it often causes the slowness of information generated, especiallyregarding the report to the CEO of the company if requested. For that it was time verynecessary and urgent to use computers as tools in data-processing data moreefficiently and accurately.The purpose of this system design is easier than getting the performance data. Thegoal of this system is:1. Providing services to the customer information needs.2. Overcoming the deficiencies that were found on systems running.3. Provide more accurate reports to the CEO

Eksistensi Nilai Pancasila Pada Generasi Milenial

Pancasila merupakan ideologi bangsa yang perlu ditanamkan tanpa terputus dari generasi pendahulu kepada generasi penerusnya, yang saat ini ada pada generasi milenial, tak terkecuali bagi para santriwati milenial yang berada di lingkungan pondok pesantren. Dengan eksistensi nilai Pancasila diharapkan dapat meningkatkan rasa persatuan antar santri dan bermasyarakat, berbingkai Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah untuk menanamkan nilai Pancasila kepada generasi milenial, khususnya kepada santriwati pondok pesantren putri Al-Awwabin, di Kelurahan Bedahan, Kecamatan Sawangan, Kota Depok, Jawa Barat sebagai mitra kegiatan. Dengan tertanamnya dengan baik nilai-nilai luhur ideologi Pancasila ini, diharapkan dapat lebih meningkatkan nilai persatuan dalam keberagaman yang ada pada diri masing-masing santriwati, serta mampu menangkal paham radikalisme yang ada di lingkungan pondok pesantren. Kegiatan penyuluhan ini diharapkan dapat menambah wawasan dan khasanah ilmu pengetahuan khususnya dalam penanaman karakter nilai persatuan dan tanggung jawab bersama di dalam kehidupan sehari-hari tiap individu maupun dalam bermasyarakat, dimana nilai egoistik individualisme kerap ditemukan lingkungan masyarakat, akibat derasnya pengaruh dari kemajuan teknologi, yang berakibat dapat merusak nilai moral dan persatuan dalam lingkungan pondok pesantren. Setelah kegiatan ini, ditemukan bahwa nilai Pancasila masih tertanam dengan baik di kalangan santriwati, yang dibuktikan dengan tanggapan atas kesadaran dalam bermasyarakat dan mampu menjawab pertanyaan yang berhubungan dengan nilai Pancasila

Mathematical Programs With Primary Turbo Pascal Version 6.0

To search for prime numbers the most important is the first mining-master the correct multiplication, division and other calculations, after which it understands itself a prime number is a number that can only be number one and number divided by itself, if any number other than number one and number itself , These numbers are not prime numbers

Searching for pitch invariant representations in auditory cortex [oral presentation]

Pitch constancy relates to perceiving the same pitch from tones with differing spectral shapes and is one key criteria for identifying a pitch selective neural representation in auditory cortex. Here we used an event-related potential (ERP) adaptation study and a behavioural task (target same/different) to investigate whether pitch coding is invariant to changes in timbre. Adaptation is observed as a decrease in N100-P200 when the same stimulus is repeated because overlapping neuronal populations encode the stimulus. Reduced adaptation indicates that new neuronal populations are recruited to encode a change in an acoustic feature of interest (i.e. pitch, timbre or both). If neurons are selective to pitch (invariant to timbre), reduced adaptation should occur for pitch changes only. If selective to both (non-invariant to timbre), reduced adaptation should occur for pitch and timbre changes. Similarly, stimulus discrimination during the behavioural task should not require any additional processing resources if neurons are selective to pitch only, and hence reaction times and accuracy should be equivalent across conditions. If neurons are selective to both pitch and timbre, longer reaction times and poorer accuracy should be observed for timbre changes. We found reduced adaptation in the N100-P200 and increased reaction times and poorer accuracy for timbre changes. This suggests that neurons in auditory cortex are selective to both pitch and timbre, i.e. pitch coding is non-invariant to timbre. This supports recent evidence suggesting interdependence between pitch
