    Thermal correlators of anyons in two dimensions

    Full text link
    The anyon fields have trivial α\alpha-commutator for α\alpha not integer. For integer α\alpha the commutators become temperature-dependent operator valued distributions. The nn-point functions do not factorize as for quasifree states.Comment: 14 pages, LaTeX (misprints corrected, a reference added

    Anyons and the Bose-Fermi duality in the finite-temperature Thirring model

    Full text link
    Solutions to the Thirring model are constructed in the framework of algebraic QFT. It is shown that for all positive temperatures there are fermionic solutions only if the coupling constant is λ=2(2n+1)π,nN\lambda=\sqrt{2(2n+1)\pi}, n\in {\bf N}. These fermions are inequivalent and only for n=1n=1 they are canonical fields. In the general case solutions are anyons. Different anyons (which are uncountably many) live in orthogonal spaces and obey dynamical equations (of the type of Heisenberg's "Urgleichung") characterized by the corresponding values of the statistic parameter. Thus statistic parameter turns out to be related to the coupling constant λ\lambda and the whole Hilbert space becomes non-separable with a different "Urgleichung" satisfied in each of its sectors. This feature certainly cannot be seen by any power expansion in λ\lambda. Moreover, since the latter is tied to the statistic parameter, it is clear that such an expansion is doomed to failure and will never reveal the true structure of the theory. The correlation functions in the temperature state for the canonical dressed fermions are shown by us to coincide with the ones for bare fields, that is in agreement with the uniqueness of the τ\tau-KMS state over the CAR algebra (τ\tau being the shift automorphism). Also the α\alpha-anyon two-point function is evaluated and for scalar field it reproduces the result that is known from the literature.Comment: 25 pages, LaTe

    Monopole Vacuum in Non-Abelian Theories

    Full text link
    It is shown that, in the theory of interacting Yang -Mills fields and a Higgs field, there is a topological degeneracy of Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) monopoles and that there arises, in this case, a chromoelectric monopole characterized by a new topological variable that describes transitions between topological states of the monopole in the Minkowski space (in just the same way as an instanton describes such transitions in the Euclidean space). The limit of an infinitely large mass of the Higgs field at a finite density of the BPS monopole is considered as a model of the stable vacuum in the pure Yang-Mills theory. It is shown that, in QCD, such a monopole vacuum may lead to a rising potential, a topological confinement and an additional mass of the η0\eta_0 meson. The relationship between the result obtained here for the generating functional of perturbation theory and Faddeev-Popov integral is discussed

    Ultracytochemical localization of ATP-hydrolysing activity in vegetative cells, spores and isolated cytoplasmic membranes of Bacillus subtilis 168

    The localization of ATP-hydrolysing activity in vegetative cells, spores and isolated membranes of Bacillus subtilis 168 was studied by a cytochemical method combined with electron microscopy. The activity was located mainly in the cytoplasmic membrane and the mesosomes, and was also found in the inner layer of the cell wall facing the cytoplasmic membrane. Activity was also detected in the cross-membranes of dividing cells and in spore coats. The product of the reaction was observed either as fine electron-dense granules incorporated into the membranes, or as high-contrast lead precipitates on the surfaces of the membranes

    Nonlinear Bogolyubov-Valatin transformations and quaternions

    Full text link
    In introducing second quantization for fermions, Jordan and Wigner (1927/1928) observed that the algebra of a single pair of fermion creation and annihilation operators in quantum mechanics is closely related to the algebra of quaternions H. For the first time, here we exploit this fact to study nonlinear Bogolyubov-Valatin transformations (canonical transformations for fermions) for a single fermionic mode. By means of these transformations, a class of fermionic Hamiltonians in an external field is related to the standard Fermi oscillator.Comment: 6 pages REVTEX (v3: two paragraphs appended, minor stylistic changes, eq.

    Correlation Functions of One-Dimensional Lieb-Liniger Anyons

    Full text link
    We have investigated the properties of a model of 1D anyons interacting through a δ\delta-function repulsive potential. The structure of the quasi-periodic boundary conditions for the anyonic field operators and the many-anyon wavefunctions is clarified. The spectrum of the low-lying excitations including the particle-hole excitations is calculated for periodic and twisted boundary conditions. Using the ideas of the conformal field theory we obtain the large-distance asymptotics of the density and field correlation function at the critical temperature T=0 and at small finite temperatures. Our expression for the field correlation function extends the results in the literature obtained for harmonic quantum anyonic fluids.Comment: 19 pages, RevTeX

    β decay of semi-magic 130Cd: Revision and extension of the level scheme of 130 In

    A. Jungclaus et al.; 8 págs.; 5 figs.; 3 tabs.The β decay of the semi-magic nucleus Cd130 has been studied at the RIBF facility at the RIKEN Nishina Center. The high statistics of the present experiment allowed for a revision of the established level scheme of In130 and the observation of additional β feeding to high-lying core-excited states in In130. The experimental results are compared to shell-model calculations employing a model space consisting of the full major N=50-82 neutron and Z=28-50 proton shells and the NA-14 interaction, and good agreement is found. ©2016 American Physical SocietyWe thank the staff of the RIKEN Nishina Center accelerator complex for providing stable beams with high intensities to the experiment.

    Measurement of the Differential and Total Cross Sections of the ᵧd→KºɅ(p) Reaction Within the Resonance Region

    Get PDF
    We report the first measurement of differential and total cross sections for the γd →K0 Λ(p)reaction, using data from the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. Data collected during two separate experimental runs were studied with photon-energy coverage 0.8-3.6 GeV and 0.5-2.6 GeV, respectively. The two measurements are consistent giving confidence in the method and determination of systematic uncertainties. The cross sections are compared with predictions from the KAON-MAID theoretical model (without kaon exchange), which deviate from the data at higher W and at forward kaon angles. These data, along with previously published cross sections for K+Λ photoproduction, provide essential constraints on the nucleon resonance spectrum. A first partial wave analysis was performed that describes the data without the introduction of new resonances

    Prototype double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSDss) of 300 μ\mu m thickness produced at PTI St. Petersburg (Russia) were tested for the use as position sensitive, ΔE\Delta E and E detectors for tracking and particle identification in the EXL (EXotic nuclei studied in Light-ion induced reactions at the NESR storage ring) setup at the FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) project at GSI. We describe the characteristics of detectors with 16×16,  64×6416 \times 16,\;64\times 64 and 64×1664\times 16 strips, respectively. The response of these detectors for 241^{241}Am α\alpha particles injected either from the p or n side was examined. The test measurements were performed partially at GSI and the University of Edinburgh. A first in-beam test with a proton beam of 50 MeV with the latter two DSSDs and two 6.5 mm thick Si(Li) detectors was also done at KVI Groningen, the Netherlands. The results reveal good spectroscopic properties of these detectors
