An Analysis of \pi\pi-Scattering Phase Shift and Existence of \sigma(555) particle
In most of the Nambu:Jona-Lasinio(NJL)-type models, realizing the hidden
chiral symmetry, the existence of a scalar particle \sigma is needed with a
mass m_\sigma=2 m_q, as a partner of the Nambu-Goldstone boson \pi. However,
the results of many analyses on \pi\pi phase-shift thus far made have been
negative for its existence. In this paper we re-analyze the phase-shift,
applying a new method, the interfering amplitude method, which treats the
T-matrix directly and describes multi-resonances in conformity with the
unitarity. As a result, the existence of \sigma has been strongly suggested
from the behavior of the \pi\pi-->\pi\pi phase shift between the \pi\pi- and
the KK- thresholds, with mass = 553.3 +- 0.5_{st} MeV and width= 242.6 +-
1.2_{st} MeV. The most crucial point in our analysis is the introduction of a
negative background phase, possibly reflecting a ``repulsive core" in \pi\pi
interactions. The properties of f_0(980) are also investigated from data
including those over the KK threshold. Its mass is obtained as 993.2 +-
6.5_{st} +- 6.9_{sys} MeV. Its width is about a hundred MeV, although this
depends largely on the treatment of the elasticity and the \pi\pi-->KK phase
shift, both of which may have large experimental uncertainties.Comment: 22 pages, Latex with Prog. Theor. Phys. format PTPTEX.sty, 4 EPS

pi^0 pi^0 Scattering Amplitudes and Phase Shifts Obtained by the pi^- P Charge Exchange Process
The results of the analysis of the pi^0 pi^0 scattering amplitudes obtained
with pi^- P charge exchange reaction, pi^- P --> pi^0 pi^0 n, data at 9 GeV/c
are presented. The pi^0 pi^0 scattering amplitudes show clear f_0(1370) and
f_2(1270) signals in the S and D waves, respectively. The pi^0 pi^0 scattering
phase shifts have been obtained below Kbar K threshold and been analyzed by the
Interfering Amplitude method with introduction of negative background phases.
The results show a S wave resonance, sigma. Its Breit-Wigner parameters are in
good agreement with those of our previous analysis on the pi^+ pi^- phase shift
data.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures. Proceedings of the int. conf. Hadron'99 at

Correlation between Superconducting Transition Temperature and Increase of Nuclear Spin-Lattice Relaxation Rate Devided by Temperature at in the Hydrate Cobaltate NaCoOHO
We have performed Co-nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) studies on
NaCoOHO compounds with different Na () and hydrate
() contents. Two samples with different Na contents but nearly the same
values ( = 0.348, = 4.7 K ; = 0.339, = 4.6 K) were
investigated. The spin-lattice relaxation rate in the superconducting
(SC) and normal states is almost the same for the two samples except just above
. NQR measurements were also performed on different-hydrate-content
samples with different values, which were prepared from the same
Na-content ( = 0.348) sample. From measurements of using the
different-hydrate-content samples, it was found that a low- sample with
K has a larger residual density of states (DOS) in the SC state and
a smaller increase of just above than a high- sample with
= 4.7 K. The former behavior is consistent with that observed in
unconventional superconductors, and the latter suggests the relationship
between and the increase in DOS just above . This increase, which is
seemingly associated with the two-dimensionality of the CoO plane, is
considered to be one of the most important factors for the occurrence of
superconductivity.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures, To be published in J. Phys. Soc. Jp
S wave superconductivity in newly discovered superconductor BaTiSbO revealed by Sb-NMR/Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance measurements
We report the Sb-NMR/nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR)
measurements on the newly-discovered superconductor BaTiSbO with a
two-dimensional TiO square-net layer formed with Ti (3). NQR
measurements revealed that the in-plane four-fold symmetry is broken at the Sb
site below 40 K, without an internal field appearing at the Sb
site. These exclude a spin-density wave (SDW)/ charge density wave (CDW)
ordering with incommensurate correlations, but can be understood with the
commensurate CDW ordering at . The spin-lattice relaxation rate
, measured at the four-fold symmetry breaking site, decreases below
superconducting (SC) transition temperature , indicative of the
microscopic coexistence of superconductivity and the CDW/SDW phase below
. Furthermore, of Sb-NQR shows a coherence peak just
below and decreases exponentially at low temperatures. These
results are in sharp contrast with those in cuprate and iron-based
superconductors, and strongly suggest that its SC symmetry is classified to an
ordinary s-wave state.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figure
Embedding approach for dynamical mean field theory of strongly correlated heterostructures
We present an embedding approach based on localized basis functions which
permits an efficient application of the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) to
inhomogeneous correlated materials, such as semi-infinite surfaces and
heterostructures. In this scheme, the semi-infinite substrate leads connected
to both sides of the central region of interest are represented via complex,
energy-dependent embedding potentials that incorporate one-electron as well as
many-body effects within the substrates. As a result, the number of layers
which must be treated explicitly in the layer-coupled DMFT equation is greatly
reduced. To illustrate the usefulness of this approach, we present numerical
results for strongly correlated surfaces, interfaces, and heterostructures of
the single-band Hubbard model.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures; typos correcte
Orbital Properties of Sr3Ru2O7 and Related Ruthenates Probed by 17O-NMR
We report a site-separated O-NMR study of the layered perovskite
ruthenate SrRuO, which exhibits nearly two-dimensional transport
properties and itinerant metamagnetism at low temperatures. The local hole
occupancies and the spin densities in the oxygen orbitals are obtained by
means of tight-binding analyses of electric field gradients and anisotropic
Knight shifts. These quantities are compared with two other layered perovskite
ruthenates: the two-dimensional paramagnet SrRuO and the
three-dimensional ferromagnet SrRuO. The hole occupancies at the oxygen
sites are very large, about one hole per ruthenium atom. This is due to the
strong covalent character of the Ru-O bonding in this compound. The magnitude
of the hole occupancy might be related to the rotation or tilt of the RuO
octahedra. The spin densities at the oxygen sites are also large, 20-40% of the
bulk susceptibilities, but in contrast to the hole occupancies, the spin
densities strongly depend on the dimensionality. This result suggests that the
density-of-states at the oxygen sites plays an essential role for the
understanding of the complex magnetism found in the layered perovskite
ruthenates.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, to be published in Phys. Rev.
