Quantum Field Theory from First Principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
When quantum fields are studied on manifolds with boundary, the corresponding one-loop quantum theory for bosonic gauge fields with linear covariant gauges needs the assignment of suitable boundary conditions for elliptic differential operators of ...

The abTEM code: transmission electron microscopy from first principles

open access: yesOpen Research Europe, 2021
Simulation of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images or diffraction patterns is often required to interpret experimental data. Since nuclear cores dominate electron scattering, the scattering potential is typically described using the independent ...

Investigating the β-Mg17Al12 Alloy under Pressure Using First-Principles Methods: Structure, Elastic Properties, and Mechanical Properties

open access: yesCrystals, 2022
Calculations of first principles were employed to explore the elastic constants of the β-Mg17Al12 intermetallic complex under pressure, along with several related physical parameters, including the bulk modulus, the shear modulus, Young’s modulus ...

Spin and Statistics and First Principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
It was shown in the early Seventies that, in Local Quantum Theory (that is the most general formulation of Quantum Field Theory, if we leave out only the unknown scenario of Quantum Gravity) the notion of Statistics can be grounded solely on the local ...

First-principles study, fabrication and characterization of (Zr0.25Nb0.25Ti0.25V0.25)C high-entropy ceramics [PDF]

open access: yesActa Materialia, 2019
The formation possibility of a new (Zr0.25Nb0.25Ti0.25V0.25)C high-entropy ceramics (ZHC-1) was first analyzed by the first-principles calculations and thermodynamical analysis and then it was successfully fabricated by hot pressing sintering technique ...

First-Principles Approach to Electrorotation Assay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We have presented a theoretical study of electrorotation assay based on the spectral representation theory. We consider unshelled and shelled spheroidal particles as an extension to spherical ones.

First Principles, Fallibilism, and Economics [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
In the eyes of its practitioners, economics is both a deductive science and an empirical science. The starting point of its deductions might be thought of as first principles. But what is the status of such principles? The tension between foundationalism, the idea that there are necessary and secure first principles for economic inquiry, and ...

Automating first-principles phase diagram calculations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Devising a computational tool that assesses the thermodynamic stability of materials is among the most important steps required to build a “virtual laboratory,” where materials could be designed from first principles without relying on experimental input.

Ferroelectric Phase Transitions from First Principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
An effective Hamiltonian for the ferroelectric transition in $PbTiO_3$ is constructed from first-principles density-functional-theory total-energy and linear-response calculations through the use of a localized, symmetrized basis set of ``lattice Wannier
