A Quantum Mermin-Wagner Theorem for a Generalized Hubbard Model by Mark Kelbert, Yurii Suhov

“…The kinetic energy part of the Hamiltonian includes (i) -Δ/2, the minus a half of the Laplace operator on M, responsible for the motion of a particle while “trapped” by a given atom, and (ii) an integral term describing possible “jumps” where a particle may join another atom. The potential part is an operator of multiplication by a function (the potential energy of a classical configuration) which is a sum of (a) one-body potentials U(1)(x), x∈M, describing a field generated by a heavy atom, (b) two-body potentials U(2)(x,y), x,y∈M, showing the interaction between pairs of particles belonging to the same atom, and (c) two-body potentials V(x,y), x,y∈M, scaled along the graph distance d(i,j) between vertices i,j∈Γ, which gives the interaction between particles belonging to different atoms. …”

Experimental Investigation of Mechanical and Electromagnetic Performance of Asphalt Concrete Containing Different Ratios of Graphite Powder as a Filler to be Potentially Used as Pa... by Orhan Kaya, Hatice Merve Annagur, Olcay Altintas

“…Possible reasons for this could be: (1) lower bulk specific gravity of graphite powder, (2) higher asphalt absorbance, (3) having greater surface area compared to that of limestone filler, and (4) weak bonds between sheet-like graphite layers. Furthermore, another batch of asphalt mixes containing five different ratios of graphite powder were prepared and tested in the frequency range of 3–18 GHz for their electromagnetic permittivity properties. …”
