A Phenomenological Description of the Non-Fermi-Liquid Phase of MnSi
In order to understand the non-Fermi-liquid behavior of MnSi under pressure
we propose a scenario on the basis of the multispiral state of the magnetic
moment.
This state can describe the recent critical experiment of the Bragg sphere in
the neutron scattering which is the key ingredient of the non-Fermi-liquid
behavior.Comment: 3 page
Limits on Phase Separation for Two-Dimensional Strongly Correlated Electrons
From calculations of the high temperature series for the free energy of the
two-dimensional t-J model we construct series for ratios of the free energy per
hole. The ratios can be extrapolated very accurately to low temperatures and
used to investigate phase separation. Our results confirm that phase separation
occurs only for J/t greater than 1.2. Also, the phase transition into the phase
separated state has Tc of approximately 0.25J for large J/t.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure
Discovery of Large-Scale Gravitational Infall in a Massive Protostellar Cluster
We report Mopra (ATNF), Anglo-Australian Telescope, and Atacama Submillimeter
Telescope Experiment observations of a molecular clump in Carina, BYF73 =
G286.21+0.17, which give evidence of large-scale gravitational infall in the
dense gas. From the millimetre and far-infrared data, the clump has mass ~ 2 x
10^4 Msun, luminosity ~ 2-3 x 10^4 Lsun, and diameter ~ 0.9 pc. From radiative
transfer modelling, we derive a mass infall rate ~ 3.4 x 10^-2 Msun yr-1. If
confirmed, this rate for gravitational infall in a molecular core or clump may
be the highest yet seen. The near-infrared K-band imaging shows an adjacent
compact HII region and IR cluster surrounded by a shell-like photodissociation
region showing H2 emission. At the molecular infall peak, the K imaging also
reveals a deeply embedded group of stars with associated H2 emission. The
combination of these features is very unusual and we suggest they indicate the
ongoing formation of a massive star cluster. We discuss the implications of
these data for competing theories of massive star formation.Comment: v1: 23 pages single-column, 6 figures (some multipart) at end v2: 14

Anomalous f-electron Hall Effect in the Heavy-Fermion System CeTIn (T = Co, Ir, or Rh)
The in-plane Hall coefficient of CeRhIn, CeIrIn, and
CeCoIn and their respective non-magnetic lanthanum analogs are reported
in fields to 90 kOe and at temperatures from 2 K to 325 K. is
negative, field-independent, and dominated by skew-scattering above 50 K
in the Ce compounds. becomes increasingly negative below 50 K
and varies with temperature in a manner that is inconsistent with skew
scattering. Field-dependent measurements show that the low-T anomaly is
strongly suppressed when the applied field is increased to 90 kOe. Measurements
on LaRhIn, LaIrIn, and LaCoIn indicate that the same
anomalous temperature dependence is present in the Hall coefficient of these
non-magnetic analogs, albeit with a reduced amplitude and no field dependence.
Hall angle () measurements find that the ratio
varies as below 20 K for all
three Ce-115 compounds. The Hall angle of the La-115 compounds follow this
T-dependence as well. These data suggest that the electronic-structure
contribution dominates the Hall effect in the 115 compounds, with -electron
and Kondo interactions acting to magnify the influence of the underlying
complex band structure. This is in stark contrast to the situation in most
and heavy-fermion compounds where the normal carrier contribution to the
Hall effect provides only a small, T-independent background to Comment: 23 pages and 8 figure
Relationship between Strain Effect and Martensitic Transformation in Multifilamentary Nb3Sn Wires
Triton binding energy calculated from the SU_6 quark-model nucleon-nucleon interaction
Properties of the three-nucleon bound state are examined in the Faddeev
formalism, in which the quark-model nucleon-nucleon interaction is explicitly
incorporated to calculate the off-shell T-matrix. The most recent version,
fss2, of the Kyoto-Niigata quark-model potential yields the ground-state energy
^3H=-8.514 MeV in the 34 channel calculation, when the np interaction is used
for the nucleon-nucleon interaction. The charge root mean square radii of the
^3H and ^3He are 1.72 fm and 1.90 fm, respectively, including the finite size
correction of the nucleons. These values are the closest to the experiments
among many results obtained by detailed Faddeev calculations employing modern
realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction models.Comment: 10 pages, no figure
An algorithm to obtain global solutions of the double confluent Heun equation
A procedure is proposed to construct solutions of the double confluent Heun
equation with a determinate behaviour at the singular points. The connection
factors are expressed as quotients of Wronskians of the involved solutions.
Asymptotic expansions are used in the computation of those Wronskians. The
feasibility of the method is shown in an example, namely, the Schroedinger
equation with a quasi-exactly-solvable potential
Semiclassical Distorted Wave Model Analysis of the Formation Inclusive Spectrum
hyperon production inclusive spectra with GeV/c
measured at KEK on C and Si are analyzed by the semiclassical
distorted wave model. Single-particle wave functions of the target nucleus are
treated using Wigner transformation. This method is able to account for the
energy and angular dependences of the elementary process in nuclear medium
without introducing the factorization approximation frequently employed.
Calculations of the formation process, for which there
is no free parameter since the s.p. potential is known, demonstrate
that the present model is useful to describe inclusive spectra. It is shown
that in order to account for the experimental data of the formation
spectra a repulsive -nucleus potential is necessary whose magnitude is
not so strong as around 100 MeV previously suggested.Comment: 12 pages, 10 figures, accepted in Phys. Rev.
Hall Coefficient in an Interacting Electron Gas
The Hall conductivity in a weak homogeneous magnetic field, , is calculated. We have shown that to leading order in
the Hall coefficient is not renormalized by the
electron-electron interaction. Our result explains the experimentally observed
stability of the Hall coefficient in a dilute electron gas not too close to the
metal-insulator transition. We avoid the currently used procedure that
introduces an artificial spatial modulation of the magnetic field. The problem
of the Hall effect is reformulated in a way such that the magnetic flux
associated with the scattering process becomes the central element of the
calculation.Comment: 23 pages, 15 figure
