β¦ Synopsis
A time-dependent fully quantum response theory for mesoscopic systems is developed in the Heisenberg representation rather than the usual interaction representation. In the mesoscopic system itself, the difference between (\mu_{+})and (\mu_{-})quasi-chemical potentials for forward-direction and backward-direction current carriers is shown to be equal to the electron charge times the line integral of the transport electric field through the system.

We applied general quantum mechanical ideas in order to establish the form of the many-electron wave functions suitable for analysis of catalytic processes. This led us to the conclusion that the relevant wave functions for the electrons of the catalytic complexes must be taken as superpositions of
The natural remodeling and adaptation of skeletal tissues in response to mechanical loading is a classic example of physical regulation in biology. It is largely because it involves forces that do not seem to fit into the familiar schemes of biochemical controls that bone adaptation mechanisms have
The errors made when large chemical systems are replaced by small models are discussed: interrupted charge transfer, missing structure constraints, neglected long-range interactions. A combined quantum mechanics (QM)-interatomic potential function (Pot) approach is described. Characteristic features
