Coupling angle resolved photoemission data and quasiparticle structure in antiferromagnetic insulators Sr2CuO2Cl2 and Ca2CuO2Cl2
We have analyzed the quasiparticle dispersion and ARPES-spectral density for
Sr2CuO2Cl2 and Ca2CuO2Cl2 antiferromagnetic insulators along basic symmetric
directions of the Brillouin zone (BZ) in a framework of an extended tight
binding method (ETBM) with explicit account for intracell strong electron
correlations. The quasiparticle dispersion is in a good agreement with ARPES-
data. At the top of valence band we found a narrow impurity-like virtual level
with the spectral weight proportional to the concentration of spin
fluctuations. A pseudogap between the virtual level and the top of the valence
band has dispersion similar to 'remnant Fermi surface' in Ca2CuO2Cl2 and to a
pseudogap in the underdoped Bi2212 samples. A calculated parity of the
polarized ARPES-spectra in (0,0),(pi/2,pi/2),(pi,0) - points in the AFM- phase
is even with regard to relative magnitudes of the partial contributions by
different orbitals to the total ARPES- spectral density. Conditions of an
observability for the different partial contributions in the polarized ARPES-
experiments are determined also.Comment: 15 pdf-pages with 10 figures and tabl
Neutrino dispersion in external magnetic fields
We calculate the neutrino self-energy operator Sigma (p) in the presence of a
magnetic field B. In particular, we consider the weak-field limit e B <<
m_\ell^2, where m_\ell is the charged-lepton mass corresponding to the neutrino
flavor \nu_\ell, and we consider a "moderate field" m_\ell^2 << e B << m_W^2.
Our results differ substantially from the previous literature. For a moderate
field, we show that it is crucial to include the contributions from all Landau
levels of the intermediate charged lepton, not just the ground-state. For the
conditions of the early universe where the background medium consists of a
charge-symmetric plasma, the pure B-field contribution to the neutrino
dispersion relation is proportional to (e B)^2 and thus comparable to the
contribution of the magnetized plasma.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure, revtex. Version to appear in Phys. Rev. D
