Renormalized interaction

Effect of off-diagonal dynamic disorder (off-DDD). The interaction of the electron with the fluctuations of the polarization and local vibrations near the other center leads to new terms VeP - V P, Vev - Vev and VeAp - VAPd, VA - VAd in the perturbation operators V°d and Vfd [see Eqs. (14)]. A part of these interactions corresponding to the equilibrium values of the polarization P0l and Po/ results in the renormalization of the electron interactions with ions A and B, due to their partial screening by the dielectric medium. However, at arbitrary values of the polarization P, there is another part of these interactions which is due to the fluctuating electric fields. This part of the interaction depends on the nuclear coordinates and may exceed the renormalized interactions of the electron with the donor and the acceptor. The interaction of the electron with these fluctuations plays an important role in processes involving solvated, trapped, and weakly bound electrons. 

Coarse-grained molecular d5mamics simulations in the presence of solvent provide insights into the effect of dispersion medium on microstructural properties of the catalyst layer. To explore the interaction of Nation and solvent in the catalyst ink mixture, simulations were performed in the presence of carbon/Pt particles, water, implicit polar solvent (with different dielectric constant e), and ionomer. Malek et al. developed the computational approach based on CGMD simulations in two steps. In the first step, groups of atoms of the distinct components were replaced by spherical beads with predefined subnanoscopic length scale. In the second step, parameters of renormalized interaction energies between the distinct beads were specified.

We can overcome all of these problems by taking the continuous chain limit in a more sophisticated way. We introduce a renormalized interaction constant u and a renormalized chain length ur by the formal relations... 

In field theory, one uses a parameter related to the behaviour of the renormalized four-leg vertex and incorrectly called the renormalized interaction . In a very similar way, in polymer theory, the second virial coefficient can be used to define the interaction between two polymers. We proceed as follows. 

The interaction b(T) must be interpreted here as a renormalized interaction (see Section t and Chapter (4, Section 6).

We have introduced three renormalized interactions V, W, and r(z). An understanding of their properties is essential for deriving useful approximations to G. We first consider the purely static quantity V. By using (51) we have...

In the second step, parameters of renormalized interaction energies between beads are specified, defining the force field under which the system trajectory evolves. Interactions between beads could be determined by force matching procedures from atomistic interactions (Izvekov and Violi, 2006 Izvekov et al., 2005) or by fitting of experimental structural correlation functions (Marrink et al., 2007).

It is now possible to account qualitatively for the dumbbell formation seen in Fig. 7.38, by a theory that computes effective renormalized interactions from the Edwards Hamiltonian. However, a quantitative description of these data presented in Figs 7.17(a) and 7.38 is still lacking. While experimental results have also been interpreted in terms of chain stretching, it is important to recall that experiments up to now could measure S coii( ) only an independent measurement of both q and Rg for the same material has thus far not been feasible. This fact again illustrates one advantage of simulation, namely that it makes a much more detailed insight possible in that all quantities of interest can be measured simultaneously from one model system.
