    EDM operator free from Schiff's theorem

    Full text link
    We present generalized Schiff's transformation on electric dipole moments (EDM) in quantum field theory. By the unitary transformation, the time and parity violating interaction ige2ψˉσμνγ5ψFμνi{ge\over 2} \bar \psi \sigma_{\mu \nu} \gamma_5 \psi F^{\mu \nu} is transformed into a new form, but its nonrelativistic reduction has a unique form, which is free from Schiff's theorem. The relativistic corrections to the new EDM operator turn out to be a small increase to the EDM as given by b2(αZ)2b_2 (\alpha Z)^2 with b2≃2b_2 \simeq 2 . Therefore, the calculation of the EDM with nonrelativistic Hartree-Fock wave functions presents the most conservative but reliable estimation for the enhancement factor of the EDM in atoms.Comment: 23 pages, Prog.

    Non-Ergodic Behaviour of the k-Body Embedded Gaussian Random Ensembles for Bosons

    Full text link
    We investigate the shape of the spectrum and the spectral fluctuations of the kk-body Embedded Gaussian Ensemble for Bosons in the dense limit, where the number of Bosons m→∞m \to \infty while both kk, the rank of the interaction, and ll, the number of single-particle states, are kept fixed. We show that the relative fluctuations of the low spectral moments do not vanish in this limit, proving that the ensemble is non-ergodic. Numerical simulations yield spectra which display a strong tendency towards picket-fence type. The wave functions also deviate from canonical random-matrix behaviourComment: 7 pages, 5 figures, uses epl.cls (included

    g-factor of a tightly bound electron

    Get PDF
    We study the hyperfine splitting of an electron in hydrogen-like 209Bi82+^{209}Bi ^{82+} . It is found that the hfs energy splitting can be explained well by considering the g-factor reduction due to the binding effect of a bound electron. We determine for the first time the experimental value of the magnetic moment of a tightly bound electron.Comment: 6 pages, Latex, Phys. Rev. A in pres

    Spectral statistics of the k-body random-interaction model

    Full text link
    We reconsider the question of the spectral statistics of the k-body random-interaction model, investigated recently by Benet, Rupp, and Weidenmueller, who concluded that the spectral statistics are Poissonian. The binary-correlation method that these authors used involves formal manipulations of divergent series. We argue that Borel summation does not suffice to define these divergent series without further (arbitrary) regularization, and that this constitutes a significant gap in the demonstration of Poissonian statistics. Our conclusion is that the spectral statistics of the k-body random-interaction model remains an open question.Comment: 17 pages, no figure

    Hyperfine Anomaly of Be Isotopes and Anomalous Large Anomaly in 11^{11}Be

    Get PDF
    A new result of investigations of the hyperfine structure (hfs) anomaly in Be isotopes is presented. The hfs constant for 11^{11}Be is obtained by using the core plus neutron type wave function: ∣2s12>+∣1d52×2+;1/2+> |2s_{1\over 2}>+|1d_{5\over2}\times 2^+ ; {1/2}^{+}> . A large hfs anomaly of 11^{11}Be is found, which is mainly due to a large radius of the halo single particle state.Comment: 14 pages, Late

    Wigner--Dyson statistics for a class of integrable models

    Full text link
    We construct an ensemble of second--quantized Hamiltonians with two bosonic degrees of freedom, whose members display with probability one GOE or GUE statistics. Nevertheless, these Hamiltonians have a second integral of motion, namely the boson number, and thus are integrable. To construct this ensemble we use some ``reverse engineering'' starting from the fact that nn--bosons in a two--level system with random interactions have an integrable classical limit by the old Heisenberg association of boson operators to actions and angles. By choosing an nn--body random interaction and degenerate levels we end up with GOE or GUE Hamiltonians. Ergodicity of these ensembles completes the example.Comment: 3 pages, 1 figur

    Spectral Properties of the k-Body Embedded Gaussian Ensembles of Random Matrices for Bosons

    Full text link
    We consider mm spinless Bosons distributed over ll degenerate single-particle states and interacting through a kk-body random interaction with Gaussian probability distribution (the Bosonic embedded kk-body ensembles). We address the cases of orthogonal and unitary symmetry in the limit of infinite matrix dimension, attained either as l→∞l \to \infty or as m→∞m \to \infty. We derive an eigenvalue expansion for the second moment of the many-body matrix elements of these ensembles. Using properties of this expansion, the supersymmetry technique, and the binary correlation method, we show that in the limit l→∞l \to \infty the ensembles have nearly the same spectral properties as the corresponding Fermionic embedded ensembles. Novel features specific for Bosons arise in the dense limit defined as m→∞m \to \infty with both kk and ll fixed. Here we show that the ensemble is not ergodic, and that the spectral fluctuations are not of Wigner-Dyson type. We present numerical results for the dense limit using both ensemble unfolding and spectral unfolding. These differ strongly, demonstrating the lack of ergodicity of the ensemble. Spectral unfolding shows a strong tendency towards picket-fence type spectra. Certain eigenfunctions of individual realizations of the ensemble display Fock-space localization.Comment: Minor corrections; figure 5 slightly modified (30 pages, 6 figs

    Hyperfine Structure Constants for Eu Isotopes: Is The Empirical Formula of HFS Anomaly Universal ?

    Get PDF
    We calculate the hyperfine structure constant for the Eu isotopes with shell model wave functions. The calculated results are compared with those predicted by the Moskowitz-Lombardi (M-L) empirical formula. It turns out that the two approaches give the very different behaviors of the hfs constants in the isotope dependence. This should be easily measured by experiment, which may lead to the universality check of the M-L formula.Comment: 18 pages, Latex, two figure

    Nucleon Edm from Atomic Systems and Constraints on Supersymmetry Parameters

    Full text link
    The nucleon EDM is shown to be directly related to the EDM of atomic systems. From the observed EDM values of the atomic Hg system, the neutron EDM can be extracted, which gives a very stringent constraint on the supersymmetry parameters. It is also shown that the measurement of Nitrogen and Thallium atomic systems should provide important information on the flavor dependence of the quark EDM. We perform numerical analyses on the EDM of neutron, proton and electron in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with CP-violating phases. We demonstrate that the new limit on the neutron EDM extracted from atomic systems excludes a wide parameter region of supersymmetry breaking masses above 1 TeV, while the old limit excludes only a small mass region below 1 TeV.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figure file

    Review of the k-Body Embedded Ensembles of Gaussian Random Matrices

    Full text link
    The embedded ensembles were introduced by Mon and French as physically more plausible stochastic models of many--body systems governed by one--and two--body interactions than provided by standard random--matrix theory. We review several approaches aimed at determining the spectral density, the spectral fluctuation properties, and the ergodic properties of these ensembles: moments methods, numerical simulations, the replica trick, the eigenvector decomposition of the matrix of second moments and supersymmetry, the binary correlation approximation, and the study of correlations between matrix elements.Comment: Final version. 29 pages, 4 ps figures, uses iopart.st
