Interaction of massless Dirac field with a Poincar\'e gauge field
In this paper we consider a model of Poincar\'e gauge theory (PGT) in which a
translational gauge field and a Lorentz gauge field are actually identified
with the Einstein's gravitational field and a pair of ``Yang-Mills'' field and
its partner, respectively.In this model we re-derive some special solutions and
take up one of them. The solution represents a ``Yang-Mills'' field without its
partner field and the Reissner-Nordstr\"om type spacetime, which are generated
by a PGT-gauge charge and its mass.It is main purpose of this paper to
investigate the interaction of massless Dirac fields with those fields. As a
result, we find an interesting fact that the left-handed massless Dirac fields
behave in the different manner from the right-handed ones. This can be
explained as to be caused by the direct interaction of Dirac fields with the
``Yang-Mills'' field. Accordingly, the phenomenon can not happen in the
behavior of the neutrino waves in ordinary Reissner-Nordstr\"om geometry. The
difference between left- and right-handed effects is calculated quantitatively,
considering the scattering problems of the massless Dirac fields by our
Reissner-Nordstr\"om type black-hole.Comment: 10pages, RevTeX3.
High Power Gamma-Ray Flash Generation in Ultra Intense Laser-Plasma Interaction
When high-intensity laser interaction with matter enters the regime of
dominated radiation reaction, the radiation losses open the way for producing
short pulse high power gamma ray flashes. The gamma-ray pulse duration and
divergence are determined by the laser pulse amplitude and by the plasma target
density scale length. On the basis of theoretical analysis and particle-in-cell
simulations with the radiation friction force incorporated, optimal conditions
for generating a gamma-ray flash with a tailored overcritical density target
are found.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures Accepted for publication in Physical Review

Magnetic correlations in the S=5/2 quadratic lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet Mn(HCOO)2ï½¥2(ND2)2CO
The magnetic correlations in the quadratic lattice S=5/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet Mn(HCOO)2â‹…2(ND2)2CO (TN=3.77K) have been studied by means of specific heat and neutron-scattering experiments. With a universal temperature scale, the temperature behavior of both the magnetic heat capacity and spin correlations are quantitatively accounted for by the pure quantum self-consistent harmonic approximation by Cuccoli et al. for S=5/2
Boundary Critical Phenomena in SU(3) "Spin" Chains
SU(3)-invariant "spin" chains with a single impurity, such as a modified
exchange coupling on one link, are analyzed using boundary conformal field
theory techniques. These chains are equivalent to a special case of the "tJV"
model, i.e. the t-J model with a nearest neighbour repulsion added. In the
continuum limit they are equivalent to two free bosons at a special value of
the compactification radii. The SU(3) symmetry, which is made explicit in this
formulation, provides insight into the exact solution of a non-trivial boundary
critical point found earlier in another formulation of this model as a theory
of quantum Brownian motion.Comment: 19 pages, Rev Te
