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 Letters (this http://prl.aps.org/

Magnetic correlations in the S=5/2 quadratic lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet Mn(HCOO)2･2(ND2)2CO

The magnetic correlations in the quadratic lattice S=5/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet Mn(HCOO)2⋅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
