López, J. M., Alonso, J. A., March, N. H., Garcias, F., Barranco, M.
Using the extended Thomas-Fermi version of density-functional theory (DFT), calculations are presented for the barrier for the reaction Na20++Na20+¿Na402+. The deviation from the simple Coulomb...
Response of doped 4He droplets (1994)
Barranco, M., Hernández, E. S.
In the framework of a finite-range density-functional theory, we compute the response of 4HeN clusters doped with a rare-gas molecule. For this purpose, the mean field for the 4He atoms, their wave...
Thermal nucleation of cavities in liquid helium at negative pressures (1993)
Guilleumas, M., Pi, M., Barranco, M., Navarro, J., Solís, M. A.
We have investigated the nucleation rate at which cavities are formed in 4He and 3He at negative pressures due to thermal fluctuations. To this end, we have used a density functional that reproduces...
Triplet pairing in fermionic droplets (1993)
Hernández, E. S., Barranco, M.
We have investigated, in the L-S coupling scheme, the appearance of triplet pairing in fermionic droplets in which a single nl shell is active. The method is applied to a constant-strength model, for...
Thermal nucleation and cavitation in 3He and 4He (1993)
Jezek, D. M., Guilleumas, M., Pi, M., Barranco, M., Navarro, J.
Density functionals that reproduce the helium liquid-gas interface as a function of temperature have been used, within an improved homogeneous nucleation approach, to investigate thermal nucleation...
