The theory of triple differential cross-sections, developed previously within the framework of nonrelativistic Schrödinger formalism, is extended to the relativistic treatment by using the Dirac-Volkov formalism. At high energies, the colliding particles lose their Coulomb character and the channel of the symmetric coplanar geometry is opened. In the first Born approximation, we have studied theoretically the laser-assisted relativistic ionization of hydrogen atoms by positron impact in this geometry. Triple differential cross-sections are calculated by using two approaches: (i) RPWSG to describe relativistic plane wave in the symmetric geometry, (ii) DVPWSG (Dirac- Volkov plane wave in the symmetric geometry) in which we take full account of the relativistic dressing effects, has been proposed to study the influence of laser field on the colliding particles. To check the consistency of our model, we have used, for comparison, the nonrelativistic approach: nonrelativistic plane wave in the symmetric geometry. Numerical results for the variation of relativistic triple differential cross-sections and their dependences on laser field parameters (intensity, frequency) and incident positron energy are also presented. As for the laser modifications, by summing over a very large number of exchanged photons, the laser-assisted triple differential cross-sections usually tends to approach the laser-free triple differential cross-sections, obeying the famous Kroll-Watson sum rule for positron projectile. In the absence, of any experimental data at high energies for this particular ionization process, we are not in a position to compare the present results with the experimental findings.

This research work investigates the structural, electronic, optical, and thermoelectric characteristics of VFeZ (Z = N and P) half‐Heusler compounds. The study employs the full‐potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP‐LAPW) method integrated into the WIEN2K algorithm, serving as the underpinning framework for density functional theory (DFT) analysis. In the study, we use the PBE generalized gradient approximation (PBE‐GGA) to identify numerous parameters associated with structural and elastic properties. Lattice parameter results are in agreement with previous outcomes. Moreover, computed elastic parameters satisfy the criterion for stability. In the cubic structure VFeZ (Z = N and P) is ductile, to enhance the computations of electronic characteristics, Tran and Blaha's modified Becke‐Johnson potential (TB‐mBJ) is used. Our simulations demonstrate that the materials exhibit semiconductor behavior, with a direct band gap for VFeZ (Z = N and P). Strong UV absorption is found via optical experiments suggest compounds are suitable for optical application. Furthermore, study of the thermoelectric properties suggests its application in the thermoelectric generators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this research paper, we consider the process of neutral Higgs production from e+e– annihilation in Inert Higgs Doublet Model (IHDM) in the absence and presence of an external field. The latter is assumed to be a plane and monochromatic wave with linear polarization. In the theoretical framework, we present the analytic calculation of the lowest order differential cross section by using the scattering matrix approach and Dirac–Volkov formalism for charged incident particles. The total cross section is computed by performing a numerical integration of the differential cross section over the solid angle. The results obtained are analyzed and discussed for different centre of mass energies and laser parameters. We found that inserting a laser wave with linear polarization is a suitable mechanism to enhance the total cross section of the process. Indeed, the probability of the process to occur increases with the presence of a linearly polarized laser field, especially with low frequency and high strength. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Various properties of S r 2 M W O 6 (M = V , R h , R u) are investigated based on the DFT theory using the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. Their magnetic properties show a half metallic bahavior for M = V and Rh with high magnetic moments. However, for S r 2 R u W O 6 , the bands for up and down spins are symmetric and thus this material is non-magnetic with an energy band gap of 1.4 e V . The presence of Ru and Rh in S r 2 M W O 6 structure increases the absorption of this material, especially in the visible light range. The elastic constants C α β for all studied compounds were obtained using Elastic1.1 and satisfy the Born stability criterion. This indicates that all the compounds are mechanically stable. Finally, electrical properties were determined using BoltzTraP package leading to interesting aspects. The obtained results are comparable with other perovskite phases. Therefore, these coupled features of the title compounds make them promising material for different applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
