Process for making RF shielded cable connector assemblies and the products formed thereby
A process for making RF shielded cable connector assemblies and the resulting structures is described. The process basically consists of potting wires of a shielded cable between the cable shield and a connector housing to fill in, support, regidize, and insulate the individual wires contained in the cable. The formed potting is coated with an electrically conductive material so as to form an entirely encompassing adhering conductive path between the cable shield and the metallic connector housing. A protective jacket is thereby formed over the conductive coating between the cable shield and the connector housing
Distributions of gaps and end-to-end correlations in random transverse-field Ising spin chains
A previously introduced real space renormalization-group treatment of the
random transverse-field Ising spin chain is extended to provide detailed
information on the distribution of the energy gap and the end-to-end
correlation function for long chains with free boundary conditions. Numerical
data, using the mapping of the problem to free fermions, are found to be in
good agreement with the analytic finite size scaling predictions.Comment: 12 pages revtex, 10 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
The Small Scale Velocity Dispersion of Galaxies: A Comparison of Cosmological Simulations
The velocity dispersion of galaxies on small scales ( Mpc),
, can be estimated from the anisotropy of the galaxy-galaxy
correlation function in redshift space. We apply this technique to
``mock-catalogs'' extracted from N-body simulations of several different
variants of Cold Dark Matter dominated cosmological models to obtain results
which may be consistently compared to similar results from observations. We
find a large variation in the value of in different
regions of the same simulation. We conclude that this statistic should not be
considered to conclusively rule out any of the cosmological models we have
studied. We attempt to make the statistic more robust by removing clusters from
the simulations using an automated cluster-removing routine, but this appears
to reduce the discriminatory power of the statistic. However, studying
as clusters with different internal velocity dispersions are
removed leads to interesting information about the amount of power on cluster
and subcluster scales. We also compute the pairwise velocity dispersion
directly and compare this to the values obtained using the Davis-Peebles
method, and find that the agreement is fairly good. We evaluate the models used
for the mean streaming velocity and the pairwise peculiar velocity distribution
in the original Davis-Peebles method by comparing the models with the results
from the simulations.Comment: 20 pages, uuencoded (Latex file + 8 Postscript figures), uses AAS

Atypical energy eigenstates in the Hubbard chain and quantum disentangled liquids
We investigate the implications of integrability for the existence of quantum
disentangled liquid (QDL) states in the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard
model. We argue that there exist finite energy-density eigenstates that exhibit
QDL behaviour in the sense of J. Stat. Mech. P10010 (2014). These states are
atypical in the sense that their entropy density is smaller than that of
thermal states at the same energy density. Furthermore, we show that thermal
states in a particular temperature window exhibit a weaker form of the QDL
property, in agreement with recent results obtained by strong-coupling
expansion methods in arXiv:1611.02075. This article is part of the themed issue
`Breakdown of ergodicity in quantum systems: from solids to synthetics matter'.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Fluctuating loops and glassy dynamics of a pinned line in two dimensions
We represent the slow, glassy equilibrium dynamics of a line in a
two-dimensional random potential landscape as driven by an array of
asymptotically independent two-state systems, or loops, fluctuating on all
length scales. The assumption of independence enables a fairly complete
analytic description. We obtain good agreement with Monte Carlo simulations
when the free energy barriers separating the two sides of a loop of size L are
drawn from a distribution whose width and mean scale as L^(1/3), in agreement
with recent results for scaling of such barriers.Comment: 11 pages, 4 Postscript figure
