High magnetic field thermal-expansion and elastic properties of CeRhIn
We report high magnetic field thermal-expansion and magnetostriction results
on CeRhIn single crystals. Several transitions, both first and second
order, are observed when the field is applied perpendicular to the
crystallographic c-axis. The magnetic field dependence of the thermal-expansion
coefficient above 15 K, where the magnetic correlations are negligible, can be
explained supposing an almost pure ground state doublet, in
apparent contradiction with neutron scattering experiments. Although the
spin-lattice interaction is relevant in this compound, the effect of the
magnetic correlations on the elastic properties is relatively weak, as revealed
by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy experiments.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figure
Spectral singularities in PT-symmetric periodic finite-gap systems
The origin of spectral singularities in finite-gap singly periodic
PT-symmetric quantum systems is investigated. We show that they emerge from a
limit of band-edge states in a doubly periodic finite gap system when the
imaginary period tends to infinity. In this limit, the energy gaps are
contracted and disappear, every pair of band states of the same periodicity at
the edges of a gap coalesces and transforms into a singlet state in the
continuum. As a result, these spectral singularities turn out to be analogous
to those in the non-periodic systems, where they appear as zero-width
resonances. Under the change of topology from a non-compact into a compact one,
spectral singularities in the class of periodic systems we study are
transformed into exceptional points. The specific degeneration related to the
presence of finite number of spectral singularities and exceptional points is
shown to be coherently reflected by a hidden, bosonized nonlinear
supersymmetry.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures; a difference between spectral singularities and
exceptional points specified, the version to appear in PR
