On the magnon interaction in Haematite. 2: Magnon energy of the acoustical mode and magnetic critical fields
Previous spin wave theories of the antiferromagnet hematite were extended. The behavior of thermodynamic quantities around the Morin transition temperature was studied, and the latent heat of the Morin transition was calculated. The temperature dependence of the antiferromagnetic resonance frequency and the parallel and perpendicular critical spin-flop magnetic fields were calculated. It was found that the theory agrees well with experiment
Field-Induced Magnetic Order and Simultaneous Lattice Deformation in TlCuCl3
We report the results of Cu and Cl nuclear magnetic resonance experiments
(NMR) and thermal expansion measurements in magnetic fields in the coupled
dimer spin system TlCuCl3. We found that the field-induced antiferromagnetic
transition as confirmed by the splitting of NMR lines is slightly
discontinuous. The abrupt change of the electric field gradient at the Cl
sites, as well as the sizable change of the lattice constants, across the phase
boundary indicate that the magnetic order is accompanied by simultaneous
lattice deformation.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Magnetization plateaux of S = 1/2 two-dimensional frustrated antiferromagnet CsCuBr
The field induced magnetic phase transitions of CsCuBr were
investigated by means of magnetization process and neutron scattering
experiments. This system undergoes magnetic phase transition at Ne\'{e}l
temperature K at zero field, and exhibits the magnetization
plateau at approximately one third of the saturation magnetization for the
field directions and . In the present study,
additional symptom of the two-third magnetization plateau was found in the
field derivative of the magnetization process. The magnetic structure was found
to be incommensurate with the ordering vector at
zero field. With increasing magnetic field parallel to the c-axis, the ordering
vector increases continuously and is locked at
in the plateau field range . This
indicates that the collinear \textit{up-up-down} spin structure is stabilized
by quantum fluctuation at the magnetization plateau.Comment: 6 pages, 4 Postscript figures, uses iopams.sty and IOPART.CL
Evidence of Strong Correlation between Instanton and QCD-monopole on SU(2) Lattice
The correlation between instantons and QCD-monopoles is studied both in the
lattice gauge theory and in the continuum theory. An analytical study in the
Polyakov-like gauge, where is diagonalized, shows that the
QCD-monopole trajectory penetrates the center of each instanton, and becomes
complicated in the multi-instanton system. Using the SU(2) lattice with ,
the instanton number is measured in the singular (monopole-dominating) and
regular (photon-dominating) parts, respectively. The monopole dominance for the
topological charge is found both in the maximally abelian gauge and in the
Polyakov gauge.Comment: 4 pages, Latex, 3 figures. Talk presented by H. Suganuma at

Non-Hermitian von Roos Hamiltonian's -weak-pseudo-Hermiticity, isospectrality and exact solvability
A complexified von Roos Hamiltonian is considered and a Hermitian first-order
intertwining differential operator is used to obtain the related position
dependent mass -weak-pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians. Using a
Liouvillean-type change of variables, the -weak-pseudo-Hermitian von Roos
Hamiltonians H(x) are mapped into the traditional Schrodinger Hamiltonian form
H(q), where exact isospectral correspondence between H(x) and H(q) is obtained.
Under a user-friendly position dependent mass settings, it is observed that for
each exactly-solvable -weak-pseudo-Hermitian reference-Hamiltonian
H(q)there is a set of exactly-solvable -weak-pseudo-Hermitian isospectral
target-Hamiltonians H(x). A non-Hermitian PT-symmetric Scarf II and a
non-Hermitian periodic-type PT-symmetric Samsonov-Roy potentials are used as
reference models and the corresponding -weak-pseudo-Hermitian isospectral
target-Hamiltonians are obtained.Comment: 11 pages, no figures
Macroscopic quantum tunneling and phase diffusion in a LaSrCuO intrinsic Josephson junction stack
We performed measurements of switching current distribution in a submicron
LaSrCuO (LSCO) intrinsic Josephson junction (IJJ) stack in a
wide temperature range. The escape rate saturates below approximately 2\,K,
indicating that the escape event is dominated by a macroscopic quantum
tunneling (MQT) process with a crossover temperature K. We
applied the theory of MQT for IJJ stacks, taking into account dissipation and
the phase re-trapping effect in the LSCO IJJ stack. The theory is in good
agreement with the experiment both in the MQT and in the thermal activation
regimes.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
Local electronic structure and magnetic properties of LaMn0.5Co0.5O3 studied by x-ray absorption and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy
We have studied the local electronic structure of LaMn0.5Co0.5O3 using
soft-x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Co-L_3,2 and Mn-L_3,2 edges. We found
a high-spin Co^{2+}--Mn^{4+} valence state for samples with the optimal Curie
temperature. We discovered that samples with lower Curie temperatures contain
low-spin nonmagnetic Co^{3+} ions. Using soft-x-ray magnetic circular dichroism
we established that the Co^{2+} and Mn^{4+} ions are ferromagnetically aligned.
We revealed also that the Co^{2+} ions have a large orbital moment:
m_orb/m_spin ~ 0.47. Together with model calculations, this suggests the
presence of a large magnetocrystalline anisotropy in the material and predicts
a non-trivial temperature dependence for the magnetic susceptibility.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure
A general approximation of quantum graph vertex couplings by scaled Schroedinger operators on thin branched manifolds
We demonstrate that any self-adjoint coupling in a quantum graph vertex can
be approximated by a family of magnetic Schroedinger operators on a tubular
network built over the graph. If such a manifold has a boundary, Neumann
conditions are imposed at it. The procedure involves a local change of graph
topology in the vicinity of the vertex; the approximation scheme constructed on
the graph is subsequently `lifted' to the manifold. For the corresponding
operator a norm-resolvent convergence is proved, with the natural
identification map, as the tube diameters tend to zero.Comment: 19 pages, one figure; introduction amended and some references added,
