Electronic Structures of Fe_x$Si Probed by Photoemission Spectroscopy
The electronic structures of the Heusler type compounds Fe_x$Si in
the concentration range between x = 0 and x = 1 have been probed by
photoemission spectroscopy (PES). The observed shift of Si 2p core- level and
the main valence band structres indicate a chemical potential shift to higher
energy with increasing x. It is also clarified that the density of state at
Fermi edge is owing to the collaboration of V 3d and Fe 3d derived states.
Besides the decrease of the spectral intensity near Fermi edge with increasing
x suggests the formation of pseudo gap at large x.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, 5 reference
Initial wave packets and the various power-law decreases of scattered wave packets at long times
The long time behavior of scattered wave packets from a
finite-range potential is investigated, by assuming to be
initially located outside the potential. It is then shown that can
asymptotically decrease in the various power laws at long time, according to
its initial characteristics at small momentum. As an application, we consider
the square-barrier potential system and demonstrate that exhibits
the asymptotic behavior , while another behavior like can
also appear for another .Comment: 5 pages, 1 figur
Spatial Resolution of a Micromegas-TPC Using the Charge Dispersion Signal
The Time Projection Chamber (TPC) for the International Linear Collider will
need to measure about 200 track points with a resolution close to 100 m. A
Micro Pattern Gas Detector (MPGD) readout TPC could achieve the desired
resolution with existing techniques using sub-millimeter width pads at the
expense of a large increase in the detector cost and complexity. We have
recently applied a new MPGD readout concept of charge dispersion to a prototype
GEM-TPC and demonstrated the feasibility of achieving good resolution with pads
similar in width to the ones used for the proportional wire TPC. The charge
dispersion studies were repeated with a Micromegas TPC amplification stage. We
present here our first results on the Micromegas-TPC resolution with charge
dispersion. The TPC resolution with the Micromegas readout is compared to our
earlier GEM results and to the resolution expected from electron statistics and
transverse diffusion in a gaseous TPC.Comment: 5 pages, 8 figures, to appar in the Proceedings of the 2005

A Generalization of Martin's Axiom
We define the chain condition. The corresponding forcing axiom
is a generalization of Martin's Axiom and implies certain uniform failures of
club--guessing on that don't seem to have been considered in the
literature before.Comment: 36 page
One-Dimensional Approximation of Viscous Flows
Attention has been paid to the similarity and duality between the
Gregory-Laflamme instability of black strings and the Rayleigh-Plateau
instability of extended fluids. In this paper, we derive a set of simple
(1+1)-dimensional equations from the Navier-Stokes equations describing thin
flows of (non-relativistic and incompressible) viscous fluids. This
formulation, a generalization of the theory of drop formation by Eggers and his
collaborators, would make it possible to examine the final fate of
Rayleigh-Plateau instability, its dimensional dependence, and possible
self-similar behaviors before and after the drop formation, in the context of
fluid/gravity correspondence.Comment: 17 pages, 3 figures; v2: refs & comments adde
Complex-Orbital Order in Fe_3O_4 and Mechanism of the Verwey Transition
Electronic state and the Verwey transition in magnetite (Fe_3O_4) are studied
using a spinless three-band Hubbard model for 3d electrons on the B sites with
the Hartree-Fock approximation and the exact diagonalisation method.
Complex-orbital, e.g., 1/sqrt(2)[|zx> + i |yz>], ordered (COO) states having
noncollinear orbital moments ~ 0.4 mu_B on the B sites are obtained with the
cubic lattice structure of the high-temperature phase. The COO state is a novel
form of magnetic ordering within the orbital degree of freedom. It arises from
the formation of Hund's second rule states of spinless pseudo-d molecular
orbitals in the Fe_4 tetrahedral units of the B sites and ferromagnetic
alignment of their fictitious orbital moments. A COO state with longer
periodicity is obtained with pseudo-orthorhombic Pmca and Pmc2_1 structures for
the low-temperature phase. The state spontaneously lowers the crystal symmetry
to the monoclinic and explains experimentally observed rhombohedral cell
deformation and Jahn-Teller like distortion. From these findings, we consider
that at the Verwey transition temperature, the COO state remaining to be
short-range order impeded by dynamical lattice distortion in high temperature
is developed into that with long-range order coupled with the monoclinic
lattice distortion.Comment: 16 pages, 13 figures, 6 tables, accepted for publication in J. Phys.

The various power decays of the survival probability at long times for free quantum particle
The long time behaviour of the survival probability of initial state and its
dependence on the initial states are considered, for the one dimensional free
quantum particle. We derive the asymptotic expansion of the time evolution
operator at long times, in terms of the integral operators. This enables us to
obtain the asymptotic formula for the survival probability of the initial state
, which is assumed to decrease sufficiently rapidly at large .
We then show that the behaviour of the survival probability at long times is
determined by that of the initial state at zero momentum . Indeed,
it is proved that the survival probability can exhibit the various power-decays
like for an arbitrary non-negative integers as ,
corresponding to the initial states with the condition as .Comment: 15 pages, to appear in J. Phys.
