Tunneling effects on impurity spectral function in coupled asymmetric quantum wires

The impurity spectral function is studied in coupled double quantum wires at finite temperatures. Simple anisotropy in the confinement direction of the wires leads to finite non-diagonal elements of the impurity spectral function matrix. These non-diagonal elements are responsible for tunneling effects and result in pronounced extra peak in the impurity spectral function up to temperatures as high as 20 K.Comment: Accepted in Phys.

CP-odd static electromagnetic properties of the W gauge boson and the t quark via the anomalous tbW coupling

In the framework of the electroweak chiral Lagrangian, the one-loop induced effects of the anomalous $tbW$ coupling, which includes both left- and right-handed complex components, on the static electromagnetic properties of the $W$ boson and the $t$ quark are studied. The attention is focused mainly on the CP-violating electromagnetic properties. It is found that the $tbW$ anomalous coupling can induce both CP-violating moments of the $W$ boson, namely, its electric dipole ($\tilde{\mu}_W$) and magnetic quadrupole ($\tilde{Q}_W$) moments. As far as the $t$ quark is concerned, a potentially large electric dipole moment $(d_t)$ can arise due to the anomalous $tbW$ coupling. The most recent bounds on the left- and right-handed parameters from $B$ meson physics lead to the following estimates $\tilde{\mu}_W ~ 10^{-23}-10^{-22}$ e-cm and $\tilde{Q}_W~ 10^{-38}-10^{-37}$ e-cm$^2$, which are 7 and 14 orders of magnitude larger than the standard model (SM) predictions, whereas $d_t$ may be as large as $10^{-22}$ e-cm, which is about 8 orders of magnitude larger than its SM counterpart.Comment: This paper has been merged with hep-ph/0612171 for publication in Physical Review
