Transport of interacting electrons through a potential barrier: nonperturbative RG approach
We calculate the linear response conductance of electrons in a Luttinger
liquid with arbitrary interaction g_2, and subject to a potential barrier of
arbitrary strength, as a function of temperature. We first map the Hamiltonian
in the basis of scattering states into an effective low energy Hamiltonian in
current algebra form. Analyzing the perturbation theory in the fermionic
representation the diagrams contributing to the renormalization group (RG)
\beta-function are identified. A universal part of the \beta-function is given
by a ladder series and summed to all orders in g_2. First non-universal
corrections beyond the ladder series are discussed. The RG-equation for the
temperature dependent conductance is solved analytically. Our result agrees
with known limiting cases.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
Hidden Virasoro Symmetry of (Soliton Solutions of) the Sine Gordon Theory
We present a construction of a Virasoro symmetry of the sine-Gordon (SG)
theory. It is a dynamical one and has nothing to do with the space-time
Virasoro symmetry of 2D CFT. Although it is clear how it can be realized
dyrectly in the SG field theory, we are rather concerned here with the
corresponding N-soliton solutions. We present explicit expressions for their
infinithesimal transformations and show that they are local in this case. Some
preliminary stages about the quantization of the classical results presented in
this paper are also given.Comment: 17 pages, corrected some typos, two references adde
An Equation of State of a Carbon-Fibre Epoxy Composite under Shock Loading
An anisotropic equation of state (EOS) is proposed for the accurate
extrapolation of high-pressure shock Hugoniot (anisotropic and isotropic)
states to other thermodynamic (anisotropic and isotropic) states for a shocked
carbon-fibre epoxy composite (CFC) of any symmetry. The proposed EOS, using a
generalised decomposition of a stress tensor [Int. J. Plasticity \textbf{24},
140 (2008)], represents a mathematical and physical generalisation of the
Mie-Gr\"{u}neisen EOS for isotropic material and reduces to this equation in
the limit of isotropy. Although a linear relation between the generalised
anisotropic bulk shock velocity and particle velocity was
adequate in the through-thickness orientation, damage softening process
produces discontinuities both in value and slope in the -
relation. Therefore, the two-wave structure (non-linear anisotropic and
isotropic elastic waves) that accompanies damage softening process was proposed
for describing CFC behaviour under shock loading. The linear relationship
- over the range of measurements corresponding to non-linear
anisotropic elastic wave shows a value of (the intercept of the
- curve) that is in the range between first and second
generalised anisotropic bulk speed of sound [Eur. Phys. J. B \textbf{64}, 159
(2008)]. An analytical calculation showed that Hugoniot Stress Levels (HELs) in
different directions for a CFC composite subject to the two-wave structure
(non-linear anisotropic elastic and isotropic elastic waves) agree with
experimental measurements at low and at high shock intensities. The results are
presented, discussed and future studies are outlined.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figure
`Composite particles' and the eigenstates of Calogero-Sutherland and Ruijsenaars-Schneider
We establish a one-to-one correspondance between the ''composite particles''
with particles and the Young tableaux with at most rows. We apply this
correspondance to the models of Calogero-Sutherland and Ruijsenaars-Schneider
and we obtain a momentum space representation of the ''composite particles'' in
terms of creation operators attached to the Young tableaux. Using the technique
of bosonisation, we obtain a position space representation of the ''composite
particles'' in terms of products of vertex operators. In the special case where
the ''composite particles'' are bosons and if we add one extra quasiparticle or
quasihole, we construct the ground state wave functions corresponding to the
Jain series of the fractional quantum Hall effect.Comment: latex calcomp2.tex, 5 files, 30 pages [SPhT-T99/080], submitted to J.

Particle-Field Duality and Form Factors from Vertex Operators
Using a duality between the space of particles and the space of fields, we
show how one can compute form factors directly in the space of fields. This
introduces the notion of vertex operators, and form factors are vacuum
expectation values of such vertex operators in the space of fields. The vertex
operators can be constructed explicitly in radial quantization. Furthermore,
these vertex operators can be exactly bosonized in momentum space. We develop
these ideas by studying the free-fermion point of the sine-Gordon theory, and
use this scheme to compute some form-factors of some non-free fields in the
sine-Gordon theory. This work further clarifies earlier work of one of the
authors, and extends it to include the periodic sector.Comment: 17 pages, 2 figures, CLNS 93/??
Charge and matter distributions and form factors of light, medium and heavy neutron-rich nuclei
Results of charge form factors calculations for several unstable neutron-rich
isotopes of light, medium and heavy nuclei (He, Li, Ni, Kr, Sn) are presented
and compared to those of stable isotopes in the same isotopic chain. For the
lighter isotopes (He and Li) the proton and neutron densities are obtained
within a microscopic large-scale shell-model, while for heavier ones Ni, Kr and
Sn the densities are calculated in deformed self-consistent mean-field Skyrme
HF+BCS method. We also compare proton densities to matter densities together
with their rms radii and diffuseness parameter values. Whenever possible
comparison of form factors, densities and rms radii with available experimental
data is also performed. Calculations of form factors are carried out both in
plane wave Born approximation (PWBA) and in distorted wave Born approximation
(DWBA). These form factors are suggested as predictions for the future
experiments on the electron-radioactive beam colliders where the effect of the
neutron halo or skin on the proton distributions in exotic nuclei is planned to
be studied and thereby the various theoretical models of exotic nuclei will be
tested.Comment: 26 pages, 11 figures, 3 tables, accepted for publication in Phys.
