Protein charge transfer far from equilibrium: a theoretical perspective
Protein charge transfer far from equilibrium: a theoretical perspective Potential differences for protein-assisted electron transfer across lipid bilayers or in bio-nano setups can amount to several 100 mV; they lie far outside the range of linear response theory. We describe these situations by Pauli-Master equations that are based on Marcus’ theory of charge transfer between self-trapped electrons and that obey Kirchhoff's current law.
Current-induced forces in nanosystems: A hierarchical equations of motion approach
Abstract An approach to calculating current-induced forces in charge transport through nanosystems is introduced. Starting from the fully quantum mechanical hierarchical equations of motion formalism, a timescale separation between electronic and vibrational degrees of freedom is used to derive a classical Langevin equation of motion for the vibrational dynamics as influenced by current-induced forces, such as the electronic friction.

Ché Guevaras Sohn im Interview: „Es gibt keine Zivilgesellschaft in Kuba“
Herr López, Ihr Vater wird in Kuba als revolutionärer Held und Märtyrer verehrt. Fidel Castro nannte ihn sogar einen Propheten. Che Guevara ist das größte Denkmal des Landes in Santa Clara gewidmet. Mit welchen Augen sehen Sie ihn im Rückblick und was könnte man als sein Erbe bezeichnen? Was mich heute an ihm als Individuum fasziniert, ist seine Einstellung, mit der er die Wirklichkeit erforschte und verändern wollte.
Interaction-driven dynamical quantum phase transitions in a strongly correlated bosonic system
Abstract We study dynamical quantum phase transitions (DQPTs) in the extended Bose-Hubbard model after a sudden quench of the nearest-neighbor interaction strength. Using the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group, we demonstrate that interaction-driven DQPTs can appear after quenches between two topologically trivial insulating phases—a phenomenon that has so far only been studied between gapped and gapless phases.
Proteste gegen kommunistisches Regime: Manifest gegen die Angst
Kubas Künstlerszene ist in Aufruhr. Seitdem die in New York lebende Performerin und Aktivistin Tania Bruguera im Oktober einen Aufruf zum Boykott der 14. Havanna Biennale lancierte, spaltet sich die internationale Kunstwelt in zwei Lager. „Wir sagen Nein zur Havanna Biennale, weil kubanische Künstler monatelang inhaftiert wurden, weil Dutzende von Kunstschaffenden unter Hausarrest stehen, weil Tausende unserer Mitbürger während der Massenproteste am 11. Juli verhaftet wurden.
Perspective: Theory of quantum transport in molecular junctions
I. INTRODUCTION Quantum transport in molecular nanostructures is a very active field of experimental and theoretical research, which has seen considerable progress in recent years.1–91. G.

Employing an interaction picture to remove artificial correlations in multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree simulations
The multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree (ML-MCTDH) method is implemented in the interaction picture to allow a more effective description of correlation effects. It is shown that the artificial correlation present in the original Schrödinger picture can be removed with an appropriate choice of the zeroth-order Hamiltonian.
