Interservice Rivalry in the U.S. Armed Forces and the Use of Airpower in the Vietnam War
Petráš, Vojtěch ; Bečka, Jan (advisor) ; Čížek, Martin (referee)
Interservice rivalry in the U.S. armed forces is a phenomenon observed over a long period of time, which complicates American military operations. It could cause some negative effects such as increase in price of armaments, duplication of services' functions, etc. The Vietnam War is considered to be unsuccessful for the United States. In this war, the airpower was used in a new way and its deployment was accompanied by many controversies and disputes about its disposal and use. The thesis briefly discusses the phenomenon of interservice rivalry, describes its history and basic principles, which are then illustrated by the example of the usage of air force in the Vietnam War. It explores the main issues in the field and examines the overall impact of interservice rivalry on the studied conflict.

Časově závislé řešení dvourozměrných rozptylových problémů v kvantové mechanice
Váňa, Martin ; Houfek, Karel (advisor) ; Čížek, Martin (referee)
The scope of this thesis is in the time-dependent formulation of the two dimensional model of resonant electron-diatomic molecule collisions in the range of low energies. In its time independent form the model was previously numerically solved without the Born-Oppenheimer approximation with use of modern tools such as the finite element method with discrete variable representation (FEM-DVR) or exterior complex scaling (ECS). Within the scope of this model we numerically solve the evolution problem, with use of the Crank-Nicolson method and the Padé approximation. Later we evaluate the cross section of the elastic and some inelastic processes with the correlation function approach. At last we make a comparison of the evolution and the cross sections to time dependent formulation of the local complex potential approximation of the electron-molecule collisions.

Description of narrow resonances using two-potential formula
Bednařík, Lukáš ; Čížek, Martin (advisor) ; Houfek, Karel (referee)
In the presented thesis we study tunneling problems with projection formalism and two potential approach. We apply this approximative method proposed by S.A. Gurvitz in [4] to two new potentials with a quasistationary state. In the next chapter we generalize this method to one-dimensional nonsymmetric potential. A new formula is found and used for calculation of energy width. We compare our results with a numerical method of complex scaling. Finally, we discuss three-dimensional potential. One axis of symmetry is assumed and we derive relatively simple formula for energy width.

Průchod proudu vibrujícím molekulárním můstkem
Šmít, Daniel ; Čížek, Martin (advisor) ; Novotný, Tomáš (referee)
In the present work we study transmission of electron through vibrat- ing molecular junction interacting with leads using a method of nonequilibrium Green functions. Our Green functions use combination of first quantization to treat vibrational levels and second quantization to treat electron processes. We treat the change of vibrational potential of junction induced by charging of junc- tion, we find a spectral function and a magnitude of current through the junction. We confirm the effect of Fermi sea and Frack-Condon factors on sharpening of peaks. We study these processes on model motivated by biphenyl molecule, in- troducing double well potential and study an effect of quasidegenerate energy levels. We present the shift of peaks, resulting from an increase of moment of inertia, to positions determined by Franck-Condon factors.

Interaction of electrons with vibrating molecules: molecular electronic applications
Pshenichnyuk, Ivan ; Čížek, Martin (advisor) ; Lipavský, Pavel (referee) ; Thoss, Michael (referee)
Interaction of electrons with vibrating molecules: molecular electronics applications Ivan A. Pshenichnyuk Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2010 Abstract Interaction of the electric current, flowing through the molecular junction, with the internal vibrations of the bridging molecule is investigated. Two different theo- retical approaches which allow us to calculate the current and other characteristics of the junction are compared. The first method is based on the scattering theory and Landauer formula, and the second on the Wangsness-Bloch-Redfield master equa- tion technique. A set of original models of the molecular bridge with anharmonic vibrational mode and asymmetric coupling to the leads is formulated. Influence of anharmonic vibrations and different types of symmetry in the junction on the current-voltage dependencies of the bridge are discussed. As an example of the phenomenon, which can only be found beyond the harmonic approximation, we demonstrate the existence of the so called "motor effect", i. e. the strong depen- dence of the average angular momentum of the molecule on the voltage, applied across the junction. The key parameters, responsible for the effect appearance, such as the rotational barrier height and the symmetry in the junction are discussed.

Few-Body Systems with Non-Zero Strangeness
Donoval, Jan ; Mareš, Jiří (advisor) ; Čížek, Martin (referee)
In this work, we studied the Kd scattering length. We formulated the Faddeev equations in the AGS form for the Kd system. We performed three-body Faddeev calculations in the s-wave approximation in the isospin basis. We studied the sensitivity of the Kd scattering length on the two-body inputs. Our results are reasonably close to the values of previous calculations.
