    Measurement of the Higgs mass via the channel : e+e- -> ZH -> e+e- + X

    Full text link
    In this communication, the mass declined for the decay channel, e+e- -> ZH -> e+e- + X, as measured by the ILD detector was studied. The Higgs mass is assumed to be 120 GeV and the center of mass energy is 250 GeV. For an integrated luminosity of 250 fb-1, the accuracy of the reconstruction and the good knowledge of the initial state allow for the measurement of the Higgs boson mass with a precision of about 100 MeV.Comment: 7 pages, 14 figures, LCWS/ILC 2010 (International Linear Collider Workshop 2010 LCWS10 and ILC10

    A homomorphism between link and XXZ modules over the periodic Temperley-Lieb algebra

    Full text link
    We study finite loop models on a lattice wrapped around a cylinder. A section of the cylinder has N sites. We use a family of link modules over the periodic Temperley-Lieb algebra EPTL_N(\beta, \alpha) introduced by Martin and Saleur, and Graham and Lehrer. These are labeled by the numbers of sites N and of defects d, and extend the standard modules of the original Temperley-Lieb algebra. Beside the defining parameters \beta=u^2+u^{-2} with u=e^{i\lambda/2} (weight of contractible loops) and \alpha (weight of non-contractible loops), this family also depends on a twist parameter v that keeps track of how the defects wind around the cylinder. The transfer matrix T_N(\lambda, \nu) depends on the anisotropy \nu and the spectral parameter \lambda that fixes the model. (The thermodynamic limit of T_N is believed to describe a conformal field theory of central charge c=1-6\lambda^2/(\pi(\lambda-\pi)).) The family of periodic XXZ Hamiltonians is extended to depend on this new parameter v and the relationship between this family and the loop models is established. The Gram determinant for the natural bilinear form on these link modules is shown to factorize in terms of an intertwiner i_N^d between these link representations and the eigenspaces of S^z of the XXZ models. This map is shown to be an isomorphism for generic values of u and v and the critical curves in the plane of these parameters for which i_N^d fails to be an isomorphism are given.Comment: Replacement of "The Gram matrix as a connection between periodic loop models and XXZ Hamiltonians", 31 page

    Fusion in the periodic Temperley-Lieb algebra and connectivity operators of loop models

    Get PDF
    In two-dimensional loop models, the scaling properties of critical random curves are encoded in the correlators of connectivity operators. In the dense O(nn) loop model, any such operator is naturally associated to a standard module of the periodic Temperley-Lieb algebra. We introduce a new family of representations of this algebra, with connectivity states that have two marked points, and argue that they define the fusion of two standard modules. We obtain their decomposition on the standard modules for generic values of the parameters, which in turn yields the structure of the operator product expansion of connectivity operators

    Donor Electron Wave Functions for Phosphorus in Silicon: Beyond Effective Mass Theory

    Full text link
    We calculate the electronic wave-function for a phosphorus donor in silicon by numerical diagonalisation of the donor Hamiltonian in the basis of the pure crystal Bloch functions. The Hamiltonian is calculated at discrete points localised around the conduction band minima in the reciprocal lattice space. Such a technique goes beyond the approximations inherent in the effective-mass theory, and can be modified to include the effects of altered donor impurity potentials, externally applied electro-static potentials, as well as the effects of lattice strain. Modification of the donor impurity potential allows the experimentally known low-lying energy spectrum to be reproduced with good agreement, as well as the calculation of the donor wavefunction, which can then be used to calculate parameters important to quantum computing applications.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure

    PENGARUH KARAKTERISTIK PERUSAHAAN DAN CORPORATE GOVERNANCE TERHADAP INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL DISCLOSURE SERTA DAMPAKNYA TERHADAP NILAI PERUSAHAAN (Studi Empiris Pada Perusahaan Perbankan Yang Terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia Tahun 2014-2018)

    This study aims to analyze the influence of firm characteristics and corporate governance on intellectual capital disclosure and its impact on firm value. This research was conducted again to review the inconsistency of the diversity of the results of previous studies. Firm characteristics are proxied with corporate governance as an independent variable in this study, intellectual capital disclosure is an intervening variable, and firm value as the dependent variable. The results of this study show that firm size has influence on the intellectual capital disclosure. Leverage, profitability, board independence, audit committee, board size do not have influence on intellectual capital disclosure. Intellectual capital disclosure does not have influence on firm value

    Complex magnetic topology and strong differential rotation on the low-mass T Tauri star V2247 Oph

    Full text link
    From observations collected with the ESPaDOnS spectropolarimeter at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, we report the detection of Zeeman signatures on the low-mass classical TTauri star (cTTS) V2247Oph. Profile distortions and circular polarisation signatures detected in photospheric lines can be interpreted as caused by cool spots and magnetic regions at the surface of the star. The large-scale field is of moderate strength and highly complex; moreover, both the spot distribution and the magnetic field show significant variability on a timescale of only one week, as a likely result of strong differential rotation. Both properties make V2247Oph very different from the (more massive) prototypical cTTS BPTau; we speculate that this difference reflects the lower mass of V2247Oph. During our observations, V2247Oph was in a low-accretion state, with emission lines showing only weak levels of circular polarisation; we nevertheless find that excess emission apparently concentrates in a mid-latitude region of strong radial field, suggesting that it is the footpoint of an accretion funnel. The weaker and more complex field that we report on V2247Oph may share similarities with those of very-low-mass late-M dwarfs and potentially explain why low-mass cTTSs rotate on average faster than intermediate mass ones. These surprising results need confirmation from new independent data sets on V2247Oph and other similar low-mass cTTSs.Comment: MNRAS (in press) - 12 pages, 9 figure

    Temperature and magnetic field dependences of the elastic constants of Ni-Mn-Al magnetic Heusler alloys

    Get PDF
    We report on measurements of the adiabatic second order elastic constants of the off-stoichiometric Ni54_{54}Mn23_{23}Al23_{23} single crystalline Heusler alloy. The variation in the temperature dependence of the elastic constants has been investigated across the magnetic transition and over a broad temperature range. Anomalies in the temperature behaviour of the elastic constants have been found in the vicinity of the magnetic phase transition. Measurements under applied magnetic field, both isothermal and variable temperature, show that the value of the elastic constants depends on magnetic order, thus giving evidence for magnetoelastic coupling in this alloy system.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures.
