Abstract:
Quantum melting is the phenomenon of cold (zero-temperature) melting of a pressure-ionized substance which represents a lattice of bare ions immersed in the background of free electrons, i.e., the so-called one-component plasma (OCP). It occurs when the compression of the substance corresponds to the zero-point fluctuations of its ions being so large that the ionic ordered state can no longer exist. Quantum melting corresponds to the classical melting curve reaching a turnaround point beyond which it starts going down and eventually terminates, when zero temperature is reached, at some critical density. This phenomenon, as well as the opposite phenomenon of quantum crystallization, may occur in dense stellar objects such as white dwarfs, and may play an important role in their evolution that requires a reliable thermoelasticity model for proper physical description. Here we suggest a modification of our unified analytic melt-shear thermoelasticity model in the region of quantum melting, and derive the corresponding Grüneisen parameters. We demonstrate how the new functional form for the cold shear modulus can be combined with a known equation of state. One of the constituents of the new model is the melting curve of OCP crystal which we also present. The inclusion of quantum melting implies that the modified model becomes applicable in the entire density range of the existence of the solid state, up to the critical density of quantum melting above which the solid state does not exist. Our approach can be generalized to model melting curves and cold shear moduli of different solid phases of a multi-phase material over the corresponding ranges of mechanical stability.

Abstract:
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a kind of nucleic acid consisting of two strands which are made up of two Watson–Crick base pairs: adenine–thymine (AT) and guanine–cytosine (GC). There are three components of the total energy. These are the inharmonic stacking interaction, hydrogen bond interaction and the kinetic energy. Morse potential is used to mimic the hydrogen bond interaction between bases on the opposite strands for the overlapping π electrons, when two neighboring bases move out of the stack. The AT pair has 2 hydrogen bonds and the GC pair has 3 of them. The π electrons obey Bose–Einstein (BE) statistics, and the overlapping of them results in quantum fluctuation. It will be shown that this can be simplified into 〈Δy(t)Δy(t)〉 = 2DqΔt type fluctuation between the base pairs. Thus, a metropolis algorithm can be developed for the total potential energy by superposing two potential energy terms as well as including the quantum fluctuation in terms of random displacement of the π electrons. So, one can calculate the melting temperature of base pairs.

We present quantum molecular dynamics calculations of thermophysical properties of solid and liquid rhenium in the vicinity of melting. We show that some pulse-heating experiments for rhenium can be independently described by the first-principle calculations. Our calculations predict significant volume change of about 6% at melting. We also provide our estimation of the enthalpy of fusion, which is about 33.6 kJ/mol.

Abstract:
Crystals arise as the result of the breaking of a spatial translation symmetry. Similarly, translation symmetries can also be broken in time so that discrete time crystals appear. Here, we introduce a method to describe, characterize, and explore the physical phenomena related to this phase of matter using tools from graph theory. The analysis of the graphs allows to visualizing time-crystalline order and to analyze features of the quantum system. For example, we explore in detail the melting process of a minimal model of a period-2 discrete time crystal and describe it in terms of the evolution of the associated graph structure. We show that during the melting process, the network evolution exhibits an emergent preferential attachment mechanism, directly associated with the existence of scale-free networks. Thus, our strategy allows us to propose a previously unexplored far-reaching application of time crystals as a quantum simulator of complex quantum networks.

The quantum chemistry is a kind of efficient theoretical research methodology; it has become an important foundation and core technology to the computational materials science. The researches of melting mechanism, doping mechanism, mechanism of hydration activity can be used in the related areas of stabilization of heavy metal by cement. Density functional theory is reviewed in the study of the affective mechanism of cement hydration activity and the intensity of hydration by heavy metal, the mechanism of fixating heavy metals by mineral and the mechanism of lowering melting temperature. It is considered that quantum chemistry can be used to make a simulation at the micro level to explore the mechanism of cement-enclosed heavy metals and has a perfect theoretical guiding significance for further research.

Abstract:
An analysis of the melting alkali earth and alkali oxides is presented using the concept of diffusional force. The calculations are performed by developing an ionic model based on Harrison's quantum mechanical treatment of overlap repulsive potential which takes into account the interactions up to second neighbors. Van der Waals dipole–dipole and dipole–quadrupole interactions calculated by more accurate methods are also included in the model. Using the formula by Fang, derived on the basis of thermodynamic analysis, the values of interionic distances for 8 alkali earth and alkali oxides at melting have been obtained. A simple model for melting is developed based on the diffusional force models. The values of Tm thus obtained are found to show fairly good agreement with experimental values of melting temperatures.

Abstract:
QuasAr1 is a fluorescent voltage sensor derived from Archaerhodopsin 3 (Arch) of Halorubrum sodomense by directed evolution. Here we report absorption and emission spectroscopic studies of QuasAr1 in Tris buffer at pH 8. Absorption cross-section spectra, fluorescence quantum distributions, fluorescence quantum yields, and fluorescence excitation spectra were determined. The thermal stability of QuasAr1 was studied by long-time attenuation coefficient measurements at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C) and at 2.5 ± 0.5 °C. The apparent melting temperature was determined by stepwise sample heating up and cooling down (obtained apparent melting temperature: 65 ± 3 °C). In the protein melting process the originally present protonated retinal Schiff base (PRSB) with absorption maximum at 580 nm converted to de-protonated retinal Schiff base (RSB) with absorption maximum at 380 nm. Long-time storage of QuasAr1 at temperatures around 2.5 °C and around 23 °C caused gradual protonated retinal Schiff base isomer changes to other isomer conformations, de-protonation to retinal Schiff base isomers, and apoprotein structure changes showing up in ultraviolet absorption increase. Reaction coordinate schemes are presented for the thermal protonated retinal Schiff base isomerizations and deprotonations in parallel with the dynamic apoprotein restructurings.

These phenomena are interpreted as direct evidence for formation of a pinned quantum Wigner crystal. Wigner crystal melting phase diagram as a function of filling factor ν was determined from the disappearance of the threshold behavior at higher temperatures. The solid phase was found to be reentrant in that it is observed to be interrupted by the ν = 1/5 fractional quantum Hall state.

Abstract:
Wigner solids in two-dimensional electron systems in high magnetic field B exhibit a striking, microwave or rf resonance, that is understood as a pinning mode. The temperature, Tm, above which the resonance is absent, is interpreted as the melting temperature of the solid. Studies of Tm for many B and many sample densities n show that Tm is a function of the Landau level filling ν alone for a given sample. This indicates that quantum mechanics figures importantly in the melting. Tm also appears to be increased by larger sample disorder.

Abstract:
By using the direct coexistence method, we have calculated the melting points of ice I h at normal pressure for three recently proposed water models, namely, TIP3P-FB, TIP4P-FB, and TIP4P-D. We obtained T m = 216 K for TIP3P-FB, T m = 242 K for TIP4P-FB, and T m = 247 K for TIP4P-D. We revisited the melting point of TIP4P/2005 and TIP5P obtaining T m = 250 and 274 K, respectively. We summarize the current situation of the melting point of ice I h for a number of water models and conclude that no model is yet able to simultaneously reproduce the melting temperature of ice I h and the temperature of the maximum in density at room pressure. This probably points toward our both still incomplete knowledge of the potential energy surface of water and the necessity of incorporating nuclear quantum effects to describe both properties simultaneously.

Storage of Archon2 at room temperature and refrigerator temperature caused absorption coefficient decrease because of partial protein clustering to aggregates at condensation nuclei and sedimentation. At room temperature an onset of light scattering was observed after two days because of the beginning of protein unfolding. During the period of observation (18 days at 21 °C, 22 days at 3 °C) no change of retinal isomer composition was observed indicating a high potential energy barrier of S0 ground-state isomerization.

Abstract:
Since 1999, experiments have shown a plethora of surprising results in the low-temperature magnetotransport in intermediate regions between quantum Hall (QH) plateaus: the extreme anisotropies observed for half-filling, or the re-entrant integer QH effects at quarter filling of high Landau levels (LL); or even an apparent melting of a Wigner Crystal (WC) at filling factor ν = 1/7 of the lowest LL. A large body of seemingly distinct experimental evidence has been successfully interpreted in terms of liquid crystalline phases in the two-dimensional electron system (2DES). In this paper, we present a review of the physics of liquid crystalline states for strongly correlated two-dimensional electronic systems in the QH regime. We describe a semi-quantitative theory for the formation of QH smectics (stripes), their zero-temperature melting onto nematic phases and ultimate anisotropic-isotropic transition via the Kosterlitz–Thouless (KT) mechanism. We also describe theories for QH-like states with various liquid crystalline orders and their excitation spectrum. We argue that resulting picture of liquid crystalline states in partially filled LL-s is a valuable starting point to understand the present experimental findings, and to suggest new experiments that will lead to further elucidation of this intriguing system.
