Spin-charge-lattice coupling near the metal-insulator transition in Ca3Ru2O7
We report x-ray scattering studies of the c-axis lattice parameter in
Ca3Ru2O7 as a function of temperature and magnetic field. These structural
studies complement published transport and magnetization data, and therefore
elucidate the spin-charge-lattice coupling near the metal-insulator transition.
Strong anisotropy of the structural change for field applied along orthogonal
in-plane directions is observed. Competition between a spin-polarized phase
that does not couple to the lattice, and an antiferromagnetic metallic phase,
which does, gives rise to rich behavior for B b.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev.
Scanning tunneling spectroscopic studies of the pairing state of cuprate superconductors
Quasiparticle tunneling spectra of both hole-doped (p-type) and electron-doped (n-type) cuprates are studied using a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. The results reveal that neither the pairing symmetry nor the pseudogap phenomenon is universal among all cuprates, and that the response of n-type cuprates to quantum impurities is drastically different from that of the p-type cuprates. The only ubiquitous features among all cuprates appear to be the strong electronic correlation and the nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic Cu2+-Cu2+ coupling in the CuO2 planes
Hamiltonian solutions of the 3-body problem in (2+1)-gravity
We present a full study of the 3-body problem in gravity in flat
(2+1)-dimensional space-time, and in the nonrelativistic limit of small
velocities. We provide an explicit form of the ADM Hamiltonian in a regular
coordinate system and we set up all the ingredients for canonical quantization.
We emphasize the role of a U(2) symmetry under which the Hamiltonian is
invariant and which should generalize to a U(N-1) symmetry for N bodies. This
symmetry seems to stem from a braid group structure in the operations of
looping of particles around each other, and guarantees the single-valuedness of
the Hamiltonian. Its role for the construction of single-valued energy
eigenfunctions is also discussed.Comment: 25 pages, no figure. v2: some calculation details removed to make the
paper more concise (see v1 for the longer version), minor correction in a
formula in the section on quantization, references added; results and
conclusions unchange
Brownian dynamics around the core of self-gravitating systems
We derive the non-Maxwellian distribution of self-gravitating -body
systems around the core by a model based on the random process with the
additive and the multiplicative noise. The number density can be obtained
through the steady state solution of the Fokker-Planck equation corresponding
to the random process. We exhibit that the number density becomes equal to that
of the King model around the core by adjusting the friction coefficient and the
intensity of the multiplicative noise. We also show that our model can be
applied in the system which has a heavier particle. Moreover, we confirm the
validity of our model by comparing with our numerical simulation.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure
Real Space Imaging of Spin Polarons in Zn Doped SrCu2(BO3)2
We report on the real space profile of spin polarons in the quasi
two-dimensional frustrated dimer spin system SrCu2(BO3)2 doped with 0.16% of
Zn. The 11B nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum exhibits 15 additional boron
sites near non-magnetic Zn impurities. With the help of exact diagonalizations
of finite clusters, we have deduced from the boron spectrum the distribution of
local magnetizations at the Cu sites with fine spatial resolution, providing
direct evidence for an extended spin polaron. The results are confronted with
those of other experiments performed on doped and undoped samples of
SrCu2(BO3)2.Comment: 9 pages, 11 figures, including supplemental materials. accepted for
