Modelling non-adiabatic processes using correlated electron-ion dynamics
Here we survey the theory and applications of a family of methods (correlated electron-ion dynamics, or CEID) that can be applied to a diverse range of problems involving the non-adiabatic exchange of energy ...

Carbon nanotubes as long ballistic conductors
Early theoretical work on single-walled carbon nanotubes1,2,3 predicted that a special achiral subset of these structures known as armchair nanotubes3 should be metallic. Tans et al.4 have recently confirmed thes...

Mechanical and Electrical Properties of Metallic Contacts
A range of molecular dynamics simulations (reviewed in [1]) has been carried out to study adhesion, sintering, friction and fracture between a metallic nanoscale tip and a flat metallic substrate. Long-range N...
