Universal Resistances of the Quantum RC circuit
We examine the concept of universal quantized resistance in the AC regime
through the fully coherent quantum RC circuit comprising a cavity (dot)
capacitively coupled to a gate and connected via a single spin-polarized
channel to a reservoir lead. As a result of quantum effects such as the Coulomb
interaction in the cavity and global phase coherence, we show that the charge
relaxation resistance is identical for weak and large transmissions and
it changes from to when the frequency (times ) exceeds
the level spacing of the cavity; is the Planck constant and the
electron charge. For large cavities, we formulate a correspondence between the
charge relaxation resistance and the Korringa-Shiba relation of the
Kondo model. Furthermore, we introduce a general class of models, for which the
charge relaxation resistance is universal. Our results emphasize that the
charge relaxation resistance is a key observable to understand the dynamics of
strongly correlated systems.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure
A model for the dependence of polarized structure functions
We present an update of a phenomenological model for the spin dependent
structure functions of the proton and neutron. This model is based
on a broken SU(6) wavefunction parametrized by the unpolarized structure
functions. The two free parameters of the model are choosen to fulfill the
Bjorken and Ellis--Jaffe sum rules. The model respects isospin symmetry and has
zero strange sea polarization. Using new values for from hyperon beta
decay the resulting dependent asymmetries are in perfect agreement
with the existing data. Therefore we do not see any evidence for a ``spin
crisis''. With two choices for the dependence of and
is predicted and shown to be small for both cases.Comment: 18 pages and 11 figures as uudecoded ps file
