Bogoliubov quasiparticle spectra of the effective d-wave model for cuprate superconductivity

An exact-diagonalization technique on finite-size clusters is used to study the ground state and excitation spectra of the two-dimensional effective fermion model, a fictious model of hole quasiparticles derived from numerical studies of the two-dimensional t-J model at low doping. We show that there is actually a reasonable range of parameter values where the $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave pairing of holes occurs and the low-lying excitation can be described by the picture of Bogoliubov quasiparticles in the BCS pairing theory. The gap parameter of a size $\Delta_d\simeq 0.13|V|$ (where $V$ is the attractive interaction between holes) is estimated at low doping levels. The paired state gives way to the state of clustering of holes for some stronger attractions.Comment: 4 pages, RevTeX. Figures available upon request to [email protected]. To be published in Phys.

Pre-scission neutron multiplicity associated with the dynamical process in superheavy mass region

The fusion-fission process accompanied by neutron emission is studied in the superheavy-mass region on the basis of the fluctuation-dissipation model combined with a statistical model. The calculation of the trajectory or the shape evolution in the deformation space of the nucleus with neutron emission is performed. Each process (quasi-fission, fusion-fission, and deep quasi-fission processes) has a characteristic travelling time from the point of contact of colliding nuclei to the scission point. These dynamical aspects of the whole process are discussed in terms of the pre-scission neutron multiplicity, which depends on the time spent on each process. We have presented the details of the characteristics of our model calculation in the reactions $^{48}$Ca+$^{208}$Pb and $^{48}$Ca+$^{244}$Pu, and shown how the structure of the distribution of pre-scission neutron multiplicity depends on the incident energy.Comment: 19 pages, 12 figures, Accepted for publication in J.

Picard-Fuchs Equations and Whitham Hierarchy in N=2 Supersymmetric SU(r+1) Yang-Mills Theory

In general, Whitham dynamics involves infinitely many parameters called Whitham times, but in the context of N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory it can be regarded as a finite system by restricting the number of Whitham times appropriately. For example, in the case of SU(r+1) gauge theory without hypermultiplets, there are r Whitham times and they play an essential role in the theory. In this situation, the generating meromorphic 1-form of the Whitham hierarchy on Seiberg-Witten curve is represented by a finite linear combination of meromorphic 1-forms associated with these Whitham times, but it turns out that there are various differential relations among these differentials. Since these relations can be written only in terms of the Seiberg-Witten 1-form, their consistency conditions are found to give the Picard-Fuchs equations for the Seiberg-Witten periods.Comment: to be published in J.

Dual WDVV Equations in N=2 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory

This paper studies the dual form of Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde (WDVV) equations in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory by applying a duality transformation to WDVV equations. The dual WDVV equations called in this paper are non-linear differential equations satisfied by dual prepotential and are found to have the same form with the original WDVV equations. However, in contrast with the case of weak coupling calculus, the perturbative part of dual prepotential itself does not satisfy the dual WDVV equations. Nevertheless, it is possible to show that the non-perturbative part of dual prepotential can be determined from dual WDVV equations, provided the perturbative part is given. As an example, the SU(4) case is presented. The non-perturbative dual prepotential derived in this way is consistent to the dual prepotential obtained by D'Hoker and Phong.Comment: misprints are corrected, revtex, 10 page

Possibility of synthesizing doubly closed superheavy nucleus

The possibility of synthesizing a doubly magic superheavy nucleus, $^{298}114_{184}$, is investigated on the basis of fluctuation-dissipation dynamics. In order to synthesize this nucleus, we must generate more neutron-rich compound nuclei because of the neutron emissions from excited compound nuclei. The compound nucleus $^{304}114$ has two advantages to achieving a high survival probability. First, because of small neutron separation energy and rapid cooling, the shell correction energy recovers quickly. Secondly, owing to neutron emissions, the neutron number of the nucleus approaches that of the double closed shell and the nucleus obtains a large fission barrier. Because of these two effects, the survival probability of $^{304}114$ does not decrease until the excitation energy $E^{*}= 50$ MeV. These properties lead to a rather high evaporation reside cross section.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figure

Exact Solution for Relativistic Two-Body Motion in Dilaton Gravity

We present an exact solution to the problem of the relativistic motion of 2 point masses in $(1+1)$ dimensional dilaton gravity. The motion of the bodies is governed entirely by their mutual gravitational influence, and the spacetime metric is likewise fully determined by their stress-energy. A Newtonian limit exists, and there is a static gravitational potential. Our solution gives the exact Hamiltonian to infinite order in the gravitational coupling constant.Comment: 6 pages, latex, 3 figure

Skyrmions coupled with the electromagnetic field via the gauged Wess-Zumino term

In soliton models expressed in terms of the non-linear chiral field, the electric current has an anomalous gauge-field contribution as the baryon current does. We study the spin polarized Skyrmions coupled with the electromagnetic field via the gauged Wess-Zumino term and calculate configurations of the Skyrmion and the gauge field with boundary conditions to ensure the physical charge number for baryons. Although the electromagnetic field via the gauged Wess-Zumino term affects physical quantities in small amounts, we find that the magnetic field forms a dipole structure owing to a circular electric current around the spin quantization axis of the soliton. This is understood on an analogy with the Meissner effect in the super conductor.The electric charge distributions turn out to have characteristic structures depending on the total charge, which suggests the intrinsic deformation of baryons due to orbital motions of the constituents.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
