Spontaneous current generation in the gapless 2SC phase
It is found that, except chromomagnetic instability, the gapless 2SC phase
also exhibits a paramagnetic response to the perturbation of an external color
neutral baryon current. The spontaneously generated baryon current driven by
the mismatch is equivalent to the one-plane wave LOFF state. We describe the
2SC phase in the nonlinear realization framework, and show that each
instability indicates the spontaneous generation of the corresponding pseudo
Nambu-Golstone current. We show this Nambu-Goldstone currents generation state
covers the gluon phase as well as the one-plane wave LOFF state. We further
point out that, when charge neutrality condition is required, there exists a
narrow unstable LOFF (Us-LOFF) window, where not only off-diagonal gluons but
the diagonal 8-th gluon cannot avoid the magnetic instability. We discuss that
the diagonal magnetic instability in this Us-LOFF window cannot be cured by
off-diagonal gluon condensate in color superconducting phase, and it will also
show up in some constrained Abelian asymmetric superfluid/superconducting
system.Comment: 8 pages, no figure, final version to appear in PR
Sandpile groups of generalized de Bruijn and Kautz graphs and circulant matrices over finite fields
A maximal minor of the Laplacian of an -vertex Eulerian digraph
gives rise to a finite group
known as the sandpile (or critical) group of . We determine
of the generalized de Bruijn graphs with
vertices and arcs for and , and closely related generalized Kautz graphs, extending and
completing earlier results for the classical de Bruijn and Kautz graphs.
Moreover, for a prime and an -cycle permutation matrix
we show that is isomorphic to the
quotient by of the centralizer of in
. This offers an explanation for the coincidence of
numerical data in sequences A027362 and A003473 of the OEIS, and allows one to
speculate upon a possibility to construct normal bases in the finite field
from spanning trees in .Comment: I+24 page
Elastic electron scattering by ethyl vinyl ether
We report measured and calculated results for elastic scattering of low-energy electrons by ethyl vinyl ether (ethoxyethene), a prototype system for studying indirect dissociative attachment processes that may play a role in DNA damage. The integral cross section displays the expected Ο* shape resonance. The agreement between the calculated and measured cross sections is generally good
Effects of selective dilution on the magnetic properties of La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Mn_{1-x}M'_xO_3 (M' = Al, Ti)
The magnetic lattice of mixed-valence Mn ions in
LaSrMnO is selectively diluted by partial substitution of
Al or Ti for Mn. The ferromagnetic transition temperature and
the saturation magnetization both decrease with substitution. By
presenting the data in terms of selective dilution, in the
low-doping region is found to follow the relation
, where refers to
the undiluted system and is the dilution concentration defined
as or for Al or Ti,
respectively. The scaling behavior of can be
analyzed in the framework of the molecular-field theory and still valid when Mn
is substituted by both Al and Ti. The results are discussed with respect to the
contributions from ferromagnetic double exchange and other possible
antiferromagnetic superexchange interactions coexisting in the material.Comment: Revtex4, 4 pages, 4 figures, 2006 Halong Conference Repor
Selective dilution and magnetic properties of La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Mn_{1-x}M'_xO_3 (M' = Al, Ti)
The magnetic lattice of mixed-valence Mn ions in LaSrMnO
is selectively diluted by partial substitution of Mn by Al or Ti. The
ferromagnetic transition temperature and the saturation moment decreases with
substitution in both series. The volume fraction of the non-ferromagnetic
phases evolves non-linearly with the substitution concentration and faster than
theoretically expected. By presenting the data in terms of selective dilutions,
the reduction of is found to be scaled by the relative ionic
concentrations and is consistent with a prediction derived from molecular-field
theory.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, REVTex4.0. Submitted to PR
