The Majumdar-Ghosh chain. Twofold ground state and elementary excitations

Recently it was proved that the Majumdar-Ghosh chain with the Hamiltonian H=4 Sigma j=12NSj.Sj+1+2 Sigma j=12N Sj.Sj+2, Si+2N identical to Si, Si=1/2, has at least two ground states, in which the spins are arranged in nearest-neighbour singlet pairs. In this work it is shown that these two states are the only ground states. Besides, a rapidly converging variational method is given to determine the elementary excitation

Growth Conditions for Zinc Crystals

Previous work by Schilling1 showed that additions of Cadmium were necessary to produce conditions favorable to growth of single crystals. The present work has to do with the effect of other impurities on growth conditions. At present it has been found, by using zinc with somewhat less iron impurity than Schilling\u27s zinc but with the same addition of Cadmium, that the region favorable to growth is more like the original one of Hoyem and Tyndall and considerably different from Schilling\u27s region

Pressure-Induced Superconductivity in Sc to 74 GPa

Using a diamond anvil cell with nearly hydrostatic helium pressure medium we have significantly extended the superconducting phase diagram Tc(P) of Sc, the lightest of all transition metals. We find that superconductivity is induced in Sc under pressure, Tc increasing monotonically to 8.2 K at 74.2 GPa. The Tc(P) dependences of the trivalent d-electron metals Sc, Y, La, and Lu are compared and discussed within a simple s-d charge transfer framework.Comment: to be published in Phys. Rev.

Exploring the Oxygen Order in Hg-1223 and Hg-1201 by 199Hg MAS NMR

We demonstrate the use of a high-resolution solid-state fast (45 kHz) magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR for mapping the oxygen distribution in Hg-based cuprate superconductors. We identify observed three peaks in 199Hg spectrum as belonging to the different chemical environments in the HgO? layer with no oxygen neighbors, single oxygen neighbor, and two oxygen neighbors. We discuss observed differences between Hg-1201 and Hg-1223 materials.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures included. Submitted to NATO Advanced Research Workshop Proceedings (Miami January 2004

Test of the semischematic model for a liquid of linear molecules

We apply to a liquid of linear molecules the semischematic mode-coupling model, previously introduced to describe the center of mass (COM) slow dynamics of a network-forming molecular liquid. We compare the theoretical predictions and numerical results from a molecular dynamics simulation, both for the time and the wave-vector dependence of the COM density-density correlation function. We discuss the relationship between the presented analysis and the results from an approximate solution of the equations from molecular mode-coupling theory [R. Schilling and T. Scheidsteger, Phys. Rev. E 56 2932 (1997)].Comment: Revtex, 10 pages, 4 figure
