Chiral Symmetry and Electron-Electron Interaction in Many-Body Gap Formation in Graphene
We study a many-body ground state of graphene in perpendicular magnetic
fields. Chiral symmetry in graphene enables us to determine the many-body
ground state, which turns out to be a doubly degenerate chiral condensate for
the half-filled (undoped) case. In the ground state a prominent charge
accumulation emerges along zigzag edges. We also show that gapless excitations
are absent despite the presence of the robust edge modes, which is consistent
with the Chern number C = 0.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, proceeding of 26th International Conference on

Cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov Calculation for Rotating Bose-Einstein Condensates
A rotating bosonic many-body system in a harmonic trap is studied with the
3D-Cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method at zero temperature, which has been
applied to nuclear many-body systems at high spin. This method is a variational
method extended from the Hartree-Fock theory, which can treat the pairing
correlations in a self-consistent manner. An advantage of this method is that a
finite-range interaction between constituent particles can be used in the
calculation, unlike the original Gross-Pitaevskii approach. To demonstrate the
validity of our method, we present a calculation for a toy model, that is, a
rotating system of ten bosonic particles interacting through the repulsive
quadrupole-quadrupole interaction in a harmonic trap. It is found that the
yrast states, the lowest-energy states for the given total angular momentum,
does not correspond to the Bose-Einstein condensate, except a few special
cases. One of such cases is a vortex state, which appears when the total
angular momentum is twice the particle number (i.e., ).Comment: accepted to Phys. Rev.
Lipid peroxidation, brush border, and neutrophil enzyme activity after small bowel preservation: A comparison of preservation solutions
High-Field Magnetization of Doped Spin-Peierls System Cu_<1-x>Zn_xGeO_3(Research in High Magnetic Fields)
We measured magnetizations of doped spin-Peierls Cu_Zn_xGeO_3 with x=0, 0.005, 0.010 and 0.020 in order to study effects of impurities on a magnetic phase. A rapid change of the magnetization associated with a phase transition from dimerized to other phases is seen. The magnetization above 16 T shows weak x and temperature dependence. A critical field associated with the phase transition decreases with increasing x. Effects of impurities on the magnetic phase are weaker than on the dimerized phase. The soliton model is applicable to the magnetic phase
Hypergeometric solutions to the q-Painlev\'e equation of type
We consider the q-Painlev\'e equation of type (a version of
q-Painlev\'e V equation) and construct a family of solutions expressible in
terms of certain basic hypergeometric series. We also present the determinant
formula for the solutions.Comment: 16 pages, IOP styl
Sodium lactobionate sucrose solution for canine liver and kidney preservation.
With 24-hour preservation of canine liver, SLS solution showed inferior animal survival to UW solution. The lactobionate, raffinose, glutathione, and hydroxyethyl starch in UW solution have been shown to be important for liver preservation. However, our results suggest that sucrose should not be substituted for raffinose for the preservation of livers. In contrast to the liver, SLS solution performed the same or even better than UW solution for kidney preservation. The substitution of sucrose for raffinose, along with the addition of CPZ has either no effect or a slightly positive effect on kidney preservation. In conclusion, SLS solution may be a suitable solution for preserving canine kidneys, but is not suitable for liver preservation. These findings suggest that future development of preservation solutions should be focused on the needs of specific organs and not toward a generic, all encompassing preservation solution
