It follows that there are two kinds of processes required for an arbitrary initial state to relax to an equilibrium state the diagonal elements must redistribute to a Boltzmaim distribution and the off-diagonal elements must decay to zero. The first of these processes is called population decay in two-level systems this time scale is called Ty The second of these processes is called dephasmg, or coherence decay in two-level systems there is a single time scale for this process called T. There is a well-known relationship in two level systems, valid for weak system-bath coupling, that... 

Fig. 4-1. Calculated intensity-wavelength distributions for continuous spectra produced by electron bombardment of various targets. The ordinate scale is arbitrary.

This expression was shown to be valid for hard sphere systems of arbitrary density. Moreover, the free-path distribution scaled by A = (uto) is nearly density-independent and almost the same as in the limit of zero density [74]. 

Using the previous equations and the calculated P/t- ratios, we can determine the angular shapes of the /detection( d) distribution for m J = 0, 1, or 2. The resulting distributions are shown in Fig. 4. Note that since the ratios of V k were used, the absolute scale is arbitrary only the relative shapes and magnitudes are important. We then fit the angular distribution data to a sum of these functions multiplied by the /dissociation term to obtain the relative m,j populations and the / value ... 

Fig. 9. X-ray intensity distributions (arbitrary scale) from aggregates formed by different polyglutamine peptides (Q , for n = 8,15, 28, 45) polyGln45 (dried), polyGln28 (vapor hydrated), polyGln15 (vapor hydrated), and polyGlng (lyophilized). The vertical bars indicate the positions of the Bragg reflections. The first interference peak for slab stacking of Q8 is indicated by. See Sharma et al. (2005) for further details.

The transition from (1) and (2) to (5) is reversible each implies the other if the variations 5l> admitted are completely arbitrary. More important from the point of view of approximation methods, Eq. (1) and (2) remain valid when the variations 6 in a trial function are constrained in some systematic way whereas the solution of (5) subject to model or numerical approximations is technically much more difficult to handle. By model approximation we shall mean an approximation to the form of as opposed to numerical approximations which are made at a lower level once a model approximation has been made. That is, we assume that H, the molecular Hamiltonian is fixed (non-relativistic, Born-Oppenheimer approximation which itself is a model in a wider sense) and we make models of the large scale electronic structure by choice of the form of and then compute the detailed charge distributions, energetics etc. within that model. 

A more refined approach is based on the local description of fluctuations in non-equilibrium systems, which permits us to treat fluctuations of all spatial scales as well as their correlations. The birth-death formalism is applied here to the physically infinitesimal volume vo, which is related to the rest of a system due to the diffusion process. To describe fluctuations in spatially extended systems, the whole volume is divided into blocks having distinctive sizes Ao (vo = Xd, d = 1,2,3 is the space dimension). Enumerating these cells with the discrete variable f and defining the number of particles iVj(f) therein, we can introduce the joint probability of arbitrary particle distribution over cells. Particle diffusion is also considered in terms of particle death in a given cell accompanied with particle birth in the nearest cell. 

If the voltage is high enough, the noise of isolated contacts can be considered as white at frequencies at which the distribution function / fluctuates. This allows us to consider the contacts as independent generators of white noise, whose intensity is determined by the instantaneous distribution function of electrons in the cavity. Based on this time-scale separation, we perform a recursive expansion of higher cumulants of current in terms of its lower cumulants. In the low-frequency limit, the expressions for the third and fourth cumulants coincide with those obtained by quantum-mechanical methods for arbitrary ratio of conductances Gl/Gr and transparencies Pl,r [9]. Very recently, the same recursive relations were obtained as a saddle-point expansion of a stochastic path integral [10]. 

Fig. 3. Radial distribution curves for hexachloroethane. The vertical lines give the Cl Cl positions in gauche ( ) and anti (a). Curve A is experimental, the dashed line combined with the other part, indicates the torsional dependent contribution, obtained by subtracting the theoretical torsional insensitive part from the experimental curve. Curves B-E are theoretical torsional dependent distribution curves. (B) based on a rigid, staggered model with ug = 14.3, ua = 6.7 (pm). (C-E) calculated for large amplitude models, using framework vibrations and a torsional potential 5-V3 (1 +cos 30) with V3 equal to 12.5,4.2, andO(kJ /mol), respectively. The scaling between A and the other curves is somewhat arbitrary, and the damping factors and modification functions slightly different...

Ignoring specific interaction effects and the influence of solvent on molecular-coil size, the usual plot of log M vers. vE is equivalent to the integral pore-size distribution in an arbitrary scale [M=pore size ve =/(pore size)]1. For a given substrate with a molecular weight M the available part of the pore volume is a/vj. Functional... 

We first consider the intermolecular modes of liquid CS2. One of the details that two-dimensional Raman spectroscopy has the potential to reveal is the coupling between intermolecular motions on different time scales. We start with the one-dimensional Raman spectrum. The best linear spectra are based on time domain third-order Raman data, and these spectra demonstrate the existence of three dynamic time scales in the intermolecular response. In Fig. 3 we have modeled the one-dimensional time domain spectrum of CS2 for 3 cases (A) a single mode represented by the sum of three Brownian oscillators, (B) three Brownian oscillators, and (C) a distribution of 20 arbitrary Brownian oscillators. Case (A) represents the fully coupled, or isotropic case where the liquid is completely homogeneous on the time scales of the simulation. Case (B) deconvolutes the linear response into the three time scales that are directly evident in the measured response and is in the limit that the motions associated with each of the three timescales are uncoupled. Case (C) is an example where the liquid is represented by a large distribution of uncoupled motions.
