excited state of many-body systems.Comment: ReVTeX: 25 pages, 10 Postscript figures,2 tables, uses epsf.sty:to be

Carbon-substitution effect on the electronic properties of MgB single crystals
The electronic properties of the carbon substituted MgB single crystals
are reported. The carbon substitution drops T below 2 K. In-plane
resistivity shows a remarkable increase in residual resistivity by
C-substitution, while the change of in-plane/out-of-plane Hall coefficients is
rather small. Raman scattering spectra indicate that the E-phonon
frequency radically hardens with increasing the carbon-content, suggesting the
weakening of electron-phonon coupling. Another striking C-effect is the
increases of the second critical fields in both in-plane and out-of-plane
directions, accompanied by a reduction in the anisotropy ratio. The possible
changes in the electronic state and the origin of T-suppression by
C-substitution are discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 8 figure
Superconducting gap of overdoped Tl2Ba2CuO6+d observed by Raman scattering
We report Raman scattering spectra for single crystals of overdoped
Tl2Ba2CuO6+d (Tl-2201) at low temperatures. It was observed that the
pair-breaking peaks in A1g and B1g spectra radically shift to lower energy with
carrier doping. We interpret it as s-wave component mixing into d-wave,
although the crystal structure is tetragonal. Since similar phenomena were
observed also in YBa2Cu3Oy and Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oz, we conclude that s-wave mixing is
a common property for overdoped high-Tc superconductors.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, proceedings of SNS200
Mott gap excitations in twin-free YBa2Cu3O7-d (Tc = 93 K) studied by RIXS
Mott gap excitations in the high-Tc superconductor of the optimal doped
YBa2Cu3O7-d (Tc = 93 K) have been studied by the resonant inelastic x-ray
scattering method. Anisotropic spectra in the ab-plane are observed in a
twin-free crystal. The excitation from the one-dimensional CuO chain is
enhanced at 2 eV near the zone boundary of the b* direction, while the
excitation from the CuO2 plane is broad at 1.5-4 eV and almost independent of
the momentum transfer. Theoretical calculation based on the one-dimensional and
two-dimensional Hubbard model reproduces the observed spectra by taking the
different parameters of the on-site Coulomb energy. The fact of the Mott gap of
the CuO chain site is much smaller than that of CuO2 plane site is observed for
the first time
Land-Based Mitigation Strategies under the Mid-Term Carbon Reduction Targets in Indonesia
We investigated the key mitigation options for achieving the mid-term target for carbon emission reduction in Indonesia. A computable general equilibrium model coupled with a land-based mitigation technology model was used to evaluate specific mitigation options within the whole economic framework. The results revealed three primary findings: (1) If no climate policy were implemented, Indonesia’s total greenhouse gas emissions would reach 3.0 GtCO2eq by 2030; (2) To reduce carbon emissions to meet the latest Intended Nationally-Determined Contributions (INDC) target, ~58% of total reductions should come from the agriculture, forestry and other land use sectors by implementing forest protection, afforestation and plantation efforts; (3) A higher carbon price in 2020 suggests that meeting the 2020 target would be economically challenging, whereas the INDC target for 2030 would be more economically realistic in Indonesia
Dispersion of Magnetic Excitations in Superconducting Optimally Doped YBa_2Cu_3O_6.95
Detailed neutron scattering measurements of YBa_2Cu_3O_6.95 found that the
resonance peak and incommensurate magnetic scattering induced by
superconductivity represent the same physical phenomenon: two dispersive
branches that converge near 41 meV and the in-plane wave-vector q_af=(pi/a,
pi/a) to form the resonance peak. One branch has a circular symmetry around
q_af and quadratic downward dispersion from ~41 meV to the spin gap of
33+-1meV. The other, of lower intensity, disperses from ~41 meV to at least 55
meV. Our results exclude a quartet of vertical incommensurate rods in q-w space
expected from spin waves produced by dynamical charge stripes as an origin of
the observed incommensurate scattering in optimally-doped YBCO.Comment: Version 3: Author change. Changes made throughout the text and minor
