Moment-field interaction

It turns out that there is another branch of mathematics, closely related to tire calculus of variations, although historically the two fields grew up somewhat separately, known as optimal control theory (OCT). Although the boundary between these two fields is somewhat blurred, in practice one may view optimal control theory as the application of the calculus of variations to problems with differential equation constraints. OCT is used in chemical, electrical, and aeronautical engineering where the differential equation constraints may be chemical kinetic equations, electrical circuit equations, the Navier-Stokes equations for air flow, or Newton s equations. In our case, the differential equation constraint is the TDSE in the presence of the control, which is the electric field interacting with the dipole (pemianent or transition dipole moment) of the molecule [53, 54, 55 and 56]. From the point of view of control theory, this application presents many new features relative to conventional applications perhaps most interesting mathematically is the admission of a complex state variable and a complex control conceptually, the application of control teclmiques to steer the microscopic equations of motion is both a novel and potentially very important new direction. 

Equation (4.c) is discussed in Appendix A. For a symmetric molecule that does not possess a dipole moment and interacts with the electric field of the laser pulse through its polarizability, the choice of the penalty function for the... 

Usually we call neutral molecule as polar one if it has considerable permanent electric dipole moment /i°. The total dipole moment should include also an induced one, aR (a is a polarizability of the molecule, R is the intensity of electric field interacting with molecule), and may be presen ted as /i = /<° + a . Permanent part of dipole moment for nonsymmetrical organic molecules usually accepted to be essentially larger than induced one that is why orientational forces or interactions of permanent electric dipoles are the most important in polar solutions [1,2,4,12, 39]. 

Hamiltonian with the energy from appropriate terms in the true Hamiltonian. The latter terms include the interaction between the external field and the magnetic moment produced by the orbiting electron, the interaction between the external field and the magnetic moment due to electron spin, and the interaction between the orbital magnetic moment and the spin magnetic moment. These interactions may be expressed as a perturbation to the total Hamiltonian for the system where... 

The transfer of the electron takes place very rapidly compared to nuclear motion, and will only take place when the combination of internal and librational coordinates is such that the curves interact. Thus, the [Fe(H20)6] + species must first distort and/or experience a dipole moment field from the instantaneous positions of the water molecules such that it attains the cross-over point. At this point, the electron may tunnel from the [Fe(H20)6]2+ ion to the metal, leaving behind an [Fe(H20)6]3 + ion with a non-equilibrium geometry, This then relaxes by heat transfer to the solvent to the equilibrium point, q0. 

An applied magnetic field interacts with the magnetic moments, partially orienting them along the field direction. This means that at fixed temperature, the field reduces the entropy. 

Based on the fundamental dipole moment concepts of mesomeric moment and interaction moment, models to explain the enhanced optical nonlinearities of polarized conjugated molecules have been devised. The equivalent internal field (EIF) model of Oudar and Chemla relates the j8 of a molecule to an equivalent electric field ER due to substituent R which biases the hyperpolarizabilities (28). In the case of donor-acceptor systems anomalously large nonlinearities result as a consequence of contributions from intramolecular charge-transfer interaction (related to /xjnt) and expressions to quantify this contribution have been obtained (29). Related treatments dealing with this problem have appeared one due to Levine and Bethea bearing directly on the EIF model (30), another due to Levine using spectroscopically derived substituent perturbations rather than dipole moment based data (31.) and yet another more empirical treatment by Dulcic and Sauteret involving reinforcement of substituent effects (32). 

The expected energy difference, 2d - E is extremely small even for completely polarized heavy-atom molecules. Thus, in practice, the EDM experiment is usually carried out in parallel and antiparallel electric and magnetic (B) fields. Interaction energy of the molecular magnetic moment, jl, with the magnetic field is much higher than that of the EDM with the electric field and the energy differences are... 

In ions containing more than one unpaired spin the individual moments can interact with the local fields generated by the other electrons. When the ion is in a site of high symmetry (octahedral or tetrahedral), this spin-spin interaction adds a constant energy to all Zeeman levels which is not detected by transitions between the levels and hence does not appear in the ESR spectrum. For sites of lower symmetry, the electron distribution is polarized and the spin-spin interaction becomes dependent on A/. It depends on M rather than Ms because the spin-spin interaction detects only relative orientations of electron spins, not absolute orientations. 

All of the heteroatoms possess at least one naturally occurring isotope with a magnetic moment (Table 15). The nuclei 14N, 170 and 33S also possess an electric quadrupole moment which interacts with the electric field gradient at the nucleus, providing a very efficient mechanism for relaxing the nuclear spin. The consequence of this facilitation of relaxation is a broadening of the NMR signals so that line widths may be 50-1000 Hz or even wider. To some extent this problem is offset by the more extensive chemical shifts that are observed. The low natural abundances and/or sensitivities have necessitated the use of accumulation techniques for all of these heteroatoms. The relative availability of 170 and 15N enriched... 

Static quadrupole effects in NMR are observed in solids (9) and also in anisotropic liquid crystals (10, 11, 12). For nuclei with spin quantum numbers, I, greater than V2, the distribution of positive charge over the nucleus can be nonspherical and the situation can be described in terms of a nuclear electric quadrupole moment. The interaction between the quadrupole moment, eQ and electric field gradients, eq, shifts the energy levels of the nuclear spin states. 

Any molecule with a permanent electric dipole moment can interact with an electromagnetic field and increase its rotational energy by absorbing photons. Measuring the separation between rotational levels (for example, by applying a microwave field which can cause transitions between states with different values of /) let us measure the bond length. The selection rule is A/ = +1—the rotational quantum number can only increase by one. So the allowed transition energies are... 

The nematic mean-field U, the molecule-field interaction potential, WE, and the induced dipole moment, ju d, are evaluated at different orientations using Equation (2.263), and then the coefficients of their expansion on a basis of Wigner rotation matrices can be calculated, according to Equation (2.268). The permittivity is obtained by a self-consistency procedure, because the energy WE and the induced dipole moment / md, as well as the reaction field contribution to the nematic distribution function p( l), themselves depend on the dielectric permittivity. 

In this regard, the electrostatic polarization term arises in the case of nonpolar molecules. These nonpolar molecules when within an electric field are polarized, and afterward produce an induced dipole moment. This induced dipole moment, ph interacts with the adsorbent, and the interaction potential is given by... 

Thus finally, the free energy contributions to G show explicitly that the electrostatic charge q interacts with the potential, the electric dipole moment vector m (Fig. 2.10) interacts with the external electric field E, the traceless electric quadrupole moment Q(/ interacts with the external field gradient, and so on ... 

The rotational magnetic moment also interacts with an apphed magnetic field, the interaction term being very similar to (1.41) above, i.e. 

As we shall see, each of these two terms, one for each nucleus, describes a second-rank scalar interaction between the electric field gradient at each nucleus and the nuclear quadrupole moment. De Santis, Lurio, Miller and Freund [44] included two other terms which involve the nuclear spins. One is the direct dipolar coupling of the 14N nuclear magnetic moments, an interaction which we discussed earlier in connection with the magnetic resonance spectrum of D2 its matrix elements were given in equation (8.33). The other is the nuclear spin-rotation interaction, also discussed in connection with H2 and its deuterium isotopes. It is represented by the term... 

The apphed electric field interacts with the electric dipole moment of the molecule nuclear spin is not involved in the decoupled basis set, so that we need only the results of our earlier analysis, given in equation (8.278), i.e.
