description: The rotational spectra of the two stable conformers syn- and gauche-propanal (CH$_3$CH$_2$CHO) were studied in the millimeter and submillimeter wave regions from 75 to 500 GHz with the Cologne (Sub-)Millimeter wave Spectrometer. Furthermore, the first excited states associated with the aldehyde torsion and with the methyl torsion, respectively, of the $syn$-conformer were analyzed. The newly obtained spectroscopic parameters yield better predictions, thus fulfill sensitivity and resolution requirements in new astronomical observations in order to unambiguously assign pure rotational transitions of propanal. This is demonstrated on a radio astronomical spectrum from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Protostellar Interferometric Line Survey (ALMA-PILS). In particular, an accurate description of observed splittings, caused by internal rotation of the methyl group in the $syn$-conformer and by tunneling rotation interaction from two stable degenerate $gauche$-conformers, is reported. The rotational spectrum of propanal is of additional interest because of its two large amplitude motions pertaining to the methyl and the aldehyde group, respectively.

description: We report spectroscopic observation of Rydberg polarons in an atomic Bose gas. Polarons are created by excitation of Rydberg atoms as impurities in a strontium Bose-Einstein condensate. They are distinguished from previously studied polarons by macroscopic occupation of bound molecular states that arise from scattering of the weakly bound Rydberg electron from ground-state atoms. The absence of a $p$-wave resonance in the low-energy electron-atom scattering in Sr introduces a universal behavior in the Rydberg spectral lineshape and in scaling of the spectral width (narrowing) with the Rydberg principal quantum number, $n$. Spectral features are described with a functional determinant approach (FDA) that solves an extended Fröhlich Hamiltonian for a mobile impurity in a Bose gas. Excited states of polyatomic Rydberg molecules (trimers, tetrameters, and pentamers) are experimentally resolved and accurately reproduced with FDA.

description: On the basis of a spatial wage-curve equation, this paper analyses the effect of immigration on average wages across Spanish provinces (NUTS-3) over the period 2004–15. To do so, a spatial panel Durbin model is estimated. The results reveal that there exists a small negative effect, which is mainly determined by the presence of spillovers. Moreover, they reveal that the average wage of a particular province depends positively on its productivity level and the share of the manufacturing industry, and negatively on its rate of unemployment and the share of the service sector.
Narrating the neurally-disrupted self: brain, self, and society in the attribution of dysregulated anger
Creators: name: Hofstra, Jorie Lindsey Florence
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: We live in a time of all things “neuro-.” Images of PET-scanned brains grace the pages of popular magazines, terms like neuroplasticity are in common use, and theories of the brain’s central role in everything from relationship difficulties to political identity to crime rates abound. Yet even as neuroscience’s jurisdiction over different facets of our lives expands, we know very little about how we actually relate to our brains in the context of the neurotechnologies and neurodiscourses all around us. To address this, I focused on people who have experienced a sudden change to their brain, followed by distressing emotional changes: a situation in which questions of who one is in relation to one’s brain are forced to the foreground. Through in-depth interviews, a diary study, and analysis of published memoirs, I investigated how people construct a sense of the relationships between brains, bodies, selves, and others in the ways they talk about their brain injury and the emotional disruptions that have followed it. The research supports the hypothesis that brain injury and post-brain-injury anger represent threats to selfhood in our present cultural climate, but it also shows that people have a diverse set of tools for navigating these threats in ways that can protect their own and others’ view of them. Moreover, some people’s ways of asserting their personhood in the midst of this crisis point the way, I argue, toward a new cultural ethos of interdependence as an alternative to the neoliberal imperatives of rationality and self-management encoded in dominant neurodiscourses.

description: Tensor models generalize the matrix-model approach to 2-dimensional quantum gravity to higher dimensions. Some models allowing a $1/N$ expansion have been explored, most of them generating branched-polymer geometries. Recently, enhancements yielding an additional 2d quantum-gravity (planar) phase and an intermediate regime of proliferating baby-universes have been found. It remains an open issue to find models escaping these lower dimensionality universality classes. Here we analyse the dominant regime and critical behaviour of a range of new models which are candidates for such effective geometries, in particular interactions based on the utility graph $K_{3,3}$. We find that, upon proper enhancement, the two-phase structure of a branched-polymer and a 2d gravity regime is the common case in $U(N)$-invariant rank $D=4$ tensor models of small orders. Not only the well known so-called necklace interactions but also $K_{3,3}$-type interactions turn out as the source for the planar regime. We give a systematic account of the enhancement scaling, the counting of leading-order diagrams and the multi-critical behaviour of a wide range of interactions, in particular for all order-6 interactions of rank 3 and 4. These findings support the claim of universality of such mixtures of branched-polymer and planar diagrams at criticality. In particular, this hints at the necessity to consider new ingredients, or interactions of higher order and rank, in order to obtain higher dimensional continuum geometry from tensor models.

description: Wall attachment bistable fluidic oscillators (FOs) based on the Coanda effect have been studied and explored for various industrial applications. Recently, FOs have been effectively used for continuous crystallization. However, despite numerous studies on the fluid dynamics of FOs, adequate information on the influence of solids on the flow and mixing characteristics of FOs is not available. In this work, we have attempted to bridge this gap. We have computationally and experimentally investigated solid – liquid flow in FOs. The Eulerian – Eulerian approach was used for simulating solid – liquid flow in FO. The jet oscillation frequency and the velocity profiles in the FO were measured using the laser Doppler anemometer for the first time. The measured flow characteristics were used to evaluate and validate computational models. The validated computational model was then used for investigating the influence of solid volume fraction and particle size on flow characteristics of FO including jet oscillation frequency. The influence of particle size and solid loading on jet oscillation frequency and overall flow characteristics of FO was found to be insignificant over the considered range (up to 175 μm paracetamol particles and up to 5 % solids loading). The backflow through limbs was found to enhance the residence time of smaller particles compared to the larger particles. The results presented in this work will be useful in extending applications of FO for process applications involving solid particles such as crystallisation

description: Objectives: This study employed electrospray deposition (ESD) for simultaneous synthesis and particle engineering of cocrystals. Significance: Exploring new methods for the efficient production of cocrystals with desired particle properties is an essential demand. Methods: The possibility of cocrystal formation by ESD was examined for indomethacin-saccharin, indomethacin-nicotinamide, naproxen-nicotinamide, and naproxen-iso-nicotinamide cocrystals. Solutions of the drug and coformer at stoichiometric ratios were sprayed to a high electric field which caused rapid evaporation of the solvent and the formation of fine particles. The phase purity, size, and morphology of products were compared with reference cocrystals. Experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of stoichiometric ratio, concentration and solvent type on the cocrystal formation. Physical stability and dissolution properties of the electrosprayed cocrystals were also compared with reference cocrystals. Results: ESD was found to be an efficient and rapid method to produce cocrystals for all studied systems other than indomethacin-nicotinamide. Pure cocrystals only formed at a specific drug:coformer ratio. The solvent type has a weak effect on the cocrystal formation and morphology. Electrosprayed cocrystals exhibited nano to micrometer sizes with distinct morphologies with comparable physical stability with reference cocrystals. Nanococrystals of indomethacin-saccharin with a mean size of 219 nm displayed a threefold higher dissolution rate than solvent evaporated cocrystal. Conclusion: ESD successfully was utilized to produce pure cocrystals of poorly soluble drugs with different morphologies and sizes ranging from nano to micrometer sizes in one step. This study highlighted the usefulness of ESD for simultaneous preparation and particle engineering of pharmaceutical cocrystals.

description: We explore, both experimentally and theoretically, the response of an elongated Bose-Einstein condensate to modulated interactions. We identify two distinct regimes differing in modulation frequency and modulation strength. Longitudinal surface waves are generated either resonantly or parametrically for modulation frequencies near the radial trap frequency or twice the trap frequency, respectively. The dispersion of these waves, the latter being a Faraday wave, is well-reproduced by a mean-field theory that accounts for the 3D nature of the elongated condensate. In contrast, in the regime of lower modulation frequencies we find that no clear resonances occur, but with increased modulation strength, the condensate forms an irregular granulated distribution that is outside the scope of a mean-field approach. We find that the granulated condensate is characterized by large quantum fluctuations and correlations, which are well-described with single-shot simulations obtained from wavefunctions computed by a beyond mean-field theory at zero temperature, the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree for bosons method.

Search for supersymmetry in events with at least one photon, missing transverse momentum, and large transverse event activity in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV

description: A search for physics beyond the standard model in final states with at least one photon, large transverse momentum imbalance, and large total transverse event activity is presented. Such topologies can be produced in gauge-mediated supersymmetry models in which pair-produced gluinos or squarks decay to photons and gravitinos via short-lived neutralinos. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2016. No significant excess of events above the expected standard model background is observed. The data are interpreted in simplified models of gluino and squark pair production, in which gluinos or squarks decay via neutralinos to photons. Gluino masses of up to 1.50-2.00 TeV and squark masses up to 1.30-1.65 TeV are excluded at 95% confidence level, depending on the neutralino mass and branching fraction.

description: The contribution of anyonic degrees of freedom emerging in the non-Abelian spin sector of a one-dimensional system of interacting fermions carrying both $SU(2)$ spin and $SU(N_f)$ orbital degrees of freedom to the thermodynamic properties of the latter is studied based on the exact solution of the model. For sufficiently small temperatures and magnetic fields the anyons appear as zero energy modes localized at the massive kink excitations [A. M. Tsvelik, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{113} (2014) 066401]. From their quantum dimension they are identified as $SU(2)_{N_f}$ spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ anyons. The density of kinks (and anyons) can be controlled by an external magnetic field leading to the formation of a collective state of these anyons described by a $Z_{N_f}$ parafermion conformal field theory for large fields. Based on the numerical analysis of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz equations we propose a phase diagram for the anyonic modes.

description: Graphene oxides possess unique physicochemical properties with important potential applications in electronics, pharmaceuticals, and medicine. However, the toxicity following inhalation exposure to graphene oxide has not yet been clarified. Therefore, this study conducted a short-term graphene oxide inhalation toxicity analysis using a nose-only inhalation exposure system and male Sprague–Dawley rats. A total of four groups (15 rats per group) were exposed: (1) control (fresh air), (2) low concentration (0.76 ± 0.16 mg/m3), (3) moderate concentration (2.60 ± 0.19 mg/m3), and (4) high concentration (9.78 ± 0.29 mg/m3). The rats were exposed to graphene oxide for 6 h/day for 5 days, followed by recovery for 1, 3, and 21 days. No significant body or organ weight changes were noted after the short-term exposure or during the recovery period. Similarly, no significant systemic effects of toxicological importance were noted in the hematological assays, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) inflammatory markers, BAL fluid cytokines, or blood biochemical assays following the graphene oxide exposure or during the post-exposure observation period. Moreover, no significant differences were observed in the BAL cell differentials, such as lymphocytes, macrophages, or polymorphonuclear cells. Graphene oxide-ingested alveolar macrophages as a spontaneous clearance reaction were observed in the lungs of all the concentration groups from post 1 day to post 21 days. Histopathological examination of the liver and kidneys did not reveal any significant test-article-relevant histopathological lesions. Importantly, similar to previously reported graphene inhalation data, this short-term nose-only inhalation study found only minimal or unnoticeable graphene oxide toxicity in the lungs and other organs.

description: In quantum gravity perturbation theory in Newton's constant G is known to be badly divergent, and as a result not very useful. Nevertheless some of the most interesting phenomena in physics are often associated with non-analytic behavior in the coupling constant and the existence of nontrivial quantum condensates. It is therefore possible that pathologies encountered in the case of gravity are more likely the result of inadequate analytical treatment, and not necessarily a reflection of some intrinsic insurmountable problem. The nonperturbative treatment of quantum gravity via the Regge-Wheeler lattice path integral formulation reveals the existence of a new phase involving a nontrivial gravitational vacuum condensate, and a new set of scaling exponents characterizing both the running of G and the long-distance behavior of invariant correlation functions. The appearance of such a gravitational condensate is viewed as analogous to the (equally nonperturbative) gluon and chiral condensates known to describe the physical vacuum of QCD. The resulting quantum theory of gravity is highly constrained, and its physical predictions are found to depend only on one adjustable parameter, a genuinely nonperturbative scale xi in many ways analogous to the scaling violation parameter Lambda MSbar of QCD. Recent results point to significant deviations from classical gravity on distance scales approaching the effective infrared cutoff set by the observed cosmological constant. Such subtle quantum effects are expected to be initially small on current cosmological scales, but could become detectable in future high precision satellite experiments.

It takes its name from Ludwig Boltzmann, as it uses the lattice Boltzmann method for hydrodynamics. Coarse-grained order parameters are solved by finite difference to represent the “complex’ part. The code is written in ANSI C and includes a lightweight thread abstraction to allow it to be run with either OpenMP, CUDA, or HIP.

Interference Mitigation via Relaying

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)

description: This paper studies the effectiveness of relaying for interference mitigation in an interference-limited communication scenario. We are motivated by the observation that in a cellular network, a relay node placed at the cell edge observes a combination of intended signal and inter-cell interference that is correlated with the received signal at a nearby destination, so a relaying link can effectively allow the antennas at the relay and at the destination to be pooled together for both signal enhancement and interference mitigation. We model this scenario by a MIMO Gaussian relay channel with a digital relay-to-destination link of finite capacity, and with correlated noise across the relay and destination antennas. Assuming a compress-and-forward strategy with Gaussian input distribution and quantization noise, we propose a coordinate ascent algorithm for obtaining a stationary point of the non-convex joint optimization of the transmit and quantization covariance matrices. For fixed input distribution, the globally optimum quantization noise covariance matrix can be found in closed-form using a transformation of the relay's observation that simultaneously diagonalizes two conditional covariance matrices by congruence. For fixed quantization, the globally optimum transmit covariance matrix can be found via convex optimization. This paper further shows that such an optimized achievable rate is within a constant additive gap of the MIMO relay channel capacity. The optimal structure of the quantization noise covariance enables a characterization of the slope of the achievable rate as a function of the relay-to-destination link capacity. Moreover, this paper shows that the improvement in spatial degrees of freedom by MIMO relaying in the presence of noise correlation is related to the aforementioned slope via a connection to the deterministic relay channel.

description: Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the use of abiraterone and enzalutamide, two oral novel antiandrogens (NOVAs), in men with prostate cancer (PCa) in Sweden. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study investigated filled prescriptions for NOVAs recorded in the Swedish Prescribed Drug Register between July 2015 and April 2016. Associations between age, comorbidity, educational level, marital status and county of residence and filled prescriptions were analyzed in the National Prostate Cancer Register (NPCR) and other health population-based registers, using multivariable logistic regression. Results: Of 91,209 men, 1650 (2%) had at least one prescription filled for NOVAs, of whom 1350 (82%) had high-risk or metastatic PCa at diagnosis.. Of 1914 men with M1 disease and a high probability of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), 22% had a prescription for NOVAs at a median 3 years after the date of diagnosis. At multivariable logistic regression analysis,, the likelihood of NOVA use was lower in older men [age >80 vs <70 years: odds ratio (OR) 0.23, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.15–0.35] and in men with lower educational level (high vs low education: OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.23–2.20). There was up to a five-fold difference in the use of NOVAs between county councils. Conclusions: Less than one-third of potentially eligible men with CRPC received NOVAs in 2015–2016. There were large differences in use according to age and region of residence, indicating that efforts are needed to improve equal access to novel cancer drugs.

description: We propose a novel approach to study conformal field theories (CFTs) in general dimensions. In the conformal bootstrap program, one usually searches for consistent CFT data that satisfy crossing symmetry. In the new approach, we reverse the logic and interpret manifestly crossing-symmetric functions as generating functions of conformal data. Physical CFTs can be obtained by scanning the space of symmetric functions. By truncating the fusion rules, we are able to concentrate on the low-lying operators and derive some approximate relations for their conformal data. It turns out that the free scalar theory, the 2d minimal model CFTs, the $ϕ^{4}$ Wilson-Fisher CFT, the Lee-Yang CFTs and the Ising CFTs are consistent with the universal relations from the minimal fusion rule $ϕ_1\times ϕ_1=I+ϕ_2+T$, where $ϕ_1,\,ϕ_2$ are scalar operators, $I$ is the identity operator and $T$ is the stress tensor.

description: The gluon fusion component of Higgs-boson production in association with dijets is of particular interest because it both (a) allows for a study of the CP-structure of the Higgs-boson couplings to gluons, and (b) provides a background to the otherwise clean study of Higgs-boson production through vector-boson fusion. The degree to which this background can be controlled, and the CP-structure of the gluon-Higgs coupling extracted, both depend on the successful description of the perturbative corrections to the gluon-fusion process. High Energy Jets (HEJ) provides all-order, perturbative predictions for multi-jet processes at hadron colliders at a fully exclusive, partonic level. We develop the framework of HEJ to include the process of Higgs-boson production in association with at least two jets. We discuss the logarithmic accuracy obtained in the underlying all-order results, and calculate the first next-to-leading corrections to the framework of HEJ, thereby significantly reducing the corrections which arise by matching to and merging fixed-order results. Finally, we compare predictions for relevant observables obtained with NLO and HEJ. We observe that the selection criteria commonly used for isolating the vector-boson fusion component suppresses the gluon-fusion component even further than predicted at NLO.

description: Angular momentum plays very important roles in the formation of PBHs in the matter-dominated phase if it lasts sufficiently long. In fact, most collapsing masses are bounced back due to centrifugal force, since angular momentum significantly grows before collapse. As a consequence, most of the formed PBHs are rapidly rotating near the extreme value $a_{*}=1$, where $a_{*}$ is the nondimensional Kerr parameter at their formation. The smaller the density fluctuation $σ_{H}$ at horizon entry is, the stronger the tendency towards the extreme rotation. Combining the effect of angular momentum with that of anisotropy, we estimate the black hole production rate. We find that the production rate suffers from suppression dominantly due to angular momentum for a smaller value of $σ_{H}$, while due to anisotrpopy for a larger value of $σ_{H}$. We argue that matter domination significantly enhances the production of PBHs despite the suppression. If the matter-dominated phase does not last so long, the effect of the finite duration significantly suppresses PBH formation and weakens the tendency towards large spins. (abridged)

description: We investigated the ground state of spin-1 bosons interacting under local two- and three-body interactions in one dimension by means of the density matrix renormalization group method. We found that the even-odd asymmetry will be obtained or not depending on the relative values of the two- and three-body interactions. The Mott insulator lobes are spin isotropic, the first showing a dimerized pattern and the second being composed of singlets. The three-body interactions disfavor a longitudinal polar superfluid and a quantum phase transition to a transverse polar superfluid occurs, which could be continuous or discontinuous.

Single particle nonlocality, geometric phases and time-dependent boundary conditions

description: We investigate the issue of single particle nonlocality in a quantum system subjected to time-dependent boundary conditions. We discuss earlier claims according to which the quantum state of a particle remaining localized at the center of an infinite well with moving walls would be specifically modified by the change in boundary conditions due to the wall's motion. We first prove that the evolution of an initially localized Gaussian state is not affected nonlocally by a linearly moving wall: as long as the quantum state has negligible amplitude near the wall, the boundary motion has no effect. This result is further extended to related confined time-dependent oscillators in which the boundary's motion is known to give rise to geometric phases: for a Gaussian state remaining localized far from the boundaries, the effect of the geometric phases is washed out and the particle dynamics shows no traces of a nonlocal influence that would be induced by the moving boundaries.

description: Circulating white blood cell (WBC) counts have been related to lung function impairment, but causal relationship was not established. We aimed to evaluate independent effects and causal relationships of WBC subtypes with lung function. The 19,159 participants from NHANES 2011–2012 (n = 3570), coke-oven workers (COW, n = 1762) and Dongfeng-Tongji (DFTJ, n = 13,827) cohorts were included in the observational studies. The associations between circulating counts of WBC subtypes and prebronchodilator lung function were evaluated by linear regression models and LASSO regression was used to select effective WBC subtypes. Summary statistics for WBC-associated SNPs were extracted from literature, and Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis with inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was applied to estimate the causal effects of total WBC and subtypes on lung function among 4012 subjects from COW (n = 1126) and DFTJ cohorts (n = 2886). Total WBC counts were negatively associated with lung function among three populations and their pooled analysis indicated that per 1 × 109 cells/L increase in total WBC was associated with 36.13 (95% CI: 30.35, 41.91) mL and 25.23 (95% CI: 19.97, 30.50) mL decrease in FVC and FEV1, respectively. Independent associations with lung function were found for neutrophils, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils (all p < .05), except lymphocytes. Besides, IVW MR analysis showed that genetically predicted total WBC and neutrophil counts were associated with reduced FVC (p = .017 and .021, respectively) and FEV1 (p = .048 and .043, respectively). WBC subtypes were independently associated with lower lung function except lymphocytes. Our findings suggest that circulating neutrophils may be causal factors in lung function impairment.KEY MESSAGESWhite blood cell (WBC) subtypes were negatively associated with lung function level except lymphocytes in the observational studies.Associations of WBC subtypes with lung function may be modified by sex and smoking.Mendelian randomization analysis shows that neutrophils may be causal factors in lung function impairment.

description: Accelerator architectures specialize in executing SIMD (single instruction, multiple data) in lockstep. Because the majority of CUDA applications are parallelized loops, control flow information can provide an in-depth characterization of a kernel. CUDAflow is a tool that statically separates CUDA binaries into basic block regions and dynamically measures instruction and basic block frequencies. CUDAflow captures this information in a control flow graph (CFG) and performs subgraph matching across various kernel's CFGs to gain insights to an application's resource requirements, based on the shape and traversal of the graph, instruction operations executed and registers allocated, among other information. The utility of CUDAflow is demonstrated with SHOC and Rodinia application case studies on a variety of GPU architectures, revealing novel thread divergence characteristics that facilitates end users, autotuners and compilers in generating high performing code.

description: Context: Andrographolide (Andro), found in large quantities in Andrographis paniculata Nees (Acanthaceae), is anti-inflammatory, especially in the central nervous system (CNS) glia. Objective: The objective of this study is to test Andro’s ability to reduce allodynia in a spared nerve injury model. Material and methods: Male 30 g BalbC mice were divided into four groups: (1) Sham-operated control (Sham-group); (2) nerve injured and treated with saline (Saline-group); (3) nerve injured and treated with Andro (Andro-group); (4) nerve injured and treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) (NSAIDS-group). Andro or NSAIDS (diclofenac salt) were injected intraperitoneally at 5 mg/kg body weight daily. Mechanical allodynia was assessed by von Frey tests at 3, 7, and 14 d. For immunohistochemical analysis, samples were collected at 7 d. Results: The threshold for inducing allodynia increased and the response percentage reduced in the Andro-group when compared with the Saline-group, as well as when compared with NSAIDS groups throughout 3–14 d. The ratio of threshold for OP-Andro/OP-saline and for OP-Andro/OP-NSAIDS groups was 20.42 and 11.67 at 14 d, respectively. The ratio of response percentage for OP-Andro/OP-saline and for OP-Andro/OP-NSAIDS was 0.32 and 0.39 at 14 d, respectively. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) immunostaining in the spinal cord was reduced in the Andro-group. Astrocytic activities were not significantly reduced in the Andro-group compared with the Saline-group at 7 d post-operation (PO) Conclusions: Andro reduced mechanical allodynia more than NSAIDS at the same concentration, and the observed behaviour was associated with a reduction in inflammatory cytokine produced in the spinal cord.

description: We propose a method for efficiently coupling the finite element method with atomistic simulations, while using molecular dynamics or kinetic Monte Carlo techniques. Our method can dynamically build an optimized unstructured mesh that follows the geometry defined by atomistic data. On this mesh, different multiphysics problems can be solved to obtain distributions of physical quantities of interest, which can be fed back to the atomistic system. The simulation flow is optimized to maximize computational efficiency while maintaining good accuracy. This is achieved by providing the modules for a) optimization of the density of the generated mesh according to requirements of a specific geometry and b) efficient extension of the finite element domain without a need to extend the atomistic one. Our method is organized as an open-source C++ code. In the current implementation, an efficient Laplace equation solver for calculation of electric field distribution near rough atomistic surface demonstrates the capability of the suggested approach.
