    We analyzed the splitting by an extended Hückel method using the single-crystal structural data for the compounds containing neutral, mono- and dianions of C60. The splitting of the initially triply degenerated C60 LUMO produces three molecular orbitals. The gap between the lowest and highest orbit...

    We Analyze the long-range Ising model in a transverse field, where interactions Decay as a power-law with distance $\propto r^{-\alpha}$, $\alpha>0$. Using Complementary numerical and analytical techniques, we identify three dynamical Regimes: short-range-like with an emerging light cone for $\alpha...
