Paramagnon-induced dispersion anomalies in the cuprates
We report the self-energy associated with RPA magnetic susceptibility in the
hole-doped Bi_2Sr_2CuO_6 (Bi2201) and the electron-doped Nd_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_4
(NCCO) in the overdoped regime within the framework of a one-band Hubbard
model. Strong weight is found in the magnetic spectrum around (pi, 0) at about
360 meV in Bi2201 and 640 meV in NCCO, which yields dispersion anomalies in
accord with the recently observed `waterfall' effects in the cuprates.Comment: Submitted to PRL, Dec. 21, 2006; 4 eps figures, revte
The chemistry of Antarctic ozone 1960-1987
The factors that influence Antarctic ozone are examined with a view to understanding the observed historical trend. Researchers show that reduced ambient temperatures can dramatically enhance the efficiency of chemical removal processes. Attention is focused on positive feedback between levels of ozone, temperature, and rates of heterogeneous chemical reactions. ClO and its dimer, and high levels of these gases are maintained until the clouds evaporate, on 15 September for the simulation shown here
