We extract the two-photon exchange (TPE) contributions to electron-proton elastic scattering using two parametrizations and compare the results to different phenomenological extractions and direct calculations of the TPE effects. We find that many of the extractions give similar results, and highlight the common assumptions and the impact of not including these assumptions. We provide a simple parametrization of the TPE contribution to the unpolarized cross section, along with an estimate of the fit uncertainties and the uncertainties associated with the model dependence of the extractions. We look at the contributions as extracted from various e-p elastic scattering observables, and make predictions for ratio of positron-proton to electron-proton elastic scattering cross sections.
In this work, we reported a new insight on the kinetics of photoisomerization and time evolution of hybrid thin films considering the azo-dye methyl red (MR) incorporated with graphene accommodated in polyethylene oxide (PEO). The kinetics of photoisomerization and time-evolution of hybrid thin films were investigated using UV-Vis s and FTIR spectroscopies, as well as appropriate models developed with new analytical methods. The existence of azo-dye MR in the complex is crucial for the resource action of the trans↔cis cycles through UV-illumination ↔ Visible-illumination relaxations. The results of the UV–Vis and the FTIR investigations prove the cyclical trans ↔ cis-states. Consequently, PEO-(MR-Graphene) hybrid composite thin films can be introduced as possible applicants for photochromic molecular switches, light-gated transistors, and molecular solar thermal energy storage media.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
