The structural dependence of the effective mass and Luttinger parameters in semiconductor quantum wells
A detailed comparison of the empirical pseudopotential method with single and multiple band calculations based on the envelope function and effective mass approximations are presented. It is shown that, in order to give agreement with the more rigorous microscopic approach of the pseudopotential method, structural dependent effective masses and Luttinger parameters must be invoked. The CdTe/Cd(1 – x)Mn(x)Te system has been employed as an example, and the first pseudopotential calculations of quantum wells and superlattices in this material are presented. It is shown that the electron, light- and heavy-hole effective masses tend towards twice their bulk values in the limit of narrow quantum wells. © 1997 American Institute of Physics

Single and Many Particle Correlation Functions and Uniform Phase Bases for Strongly Correlated Systems
The need for suitable many or infinite fermion correlation functions to
describe some low dimensional strongly correlated systems is discussed. This is
linked to the need for a correlated basis, in which the ground state may be
postive definite, and in which single particle correlations may suffice. A
particular trial basis is proposed, and applied to a certain quasi-1D model.
The model is a strip of the 2D square lattice wrapped around a cylinder, and is
related to the ladder geometries, but with periodic instead of open boundary
conditions along the edges. Analysis involves a novel mean-field approach and
exact diagonalisation. The model has a paramagnetic region and a Nagaoka
ferromagnetic region. The proposed basis is well suited to the model, and
single particle correlations in it have power law decay for the paramagnet,
where the charge motion is qualitatively hard core bosonic. The mean field also
leads to a BCS-type model with single particle long range order.Comment: 23 pages, in plain tex, 12 Postscript figures included. Accepted for

Quartic Gauge Boson Couplings and Tree Unitarity in the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N Models
The quartic gauge boson couplings in the models are presented. We find that the couplings of four {\it
differrent} gauge bosons may have unusual Lorentz structure and the couplings
sastify the tree unitarity requirement at high energy limit.Comment: 13 pages, Latex, axodraw.st
Single Z' production at CLIC based on e^- gamma collisions
We analyze the potential of CLIC based on e- gamma collisions to search for
new gauge boson. Single Z' production at e-gamma colliders in two SU(3)_C
X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N models: the minimal model and the model with right-handed
(RH) neutrinos is studied in detail. Results show that new Z' gauge bosons can
be observed at the CLIC, and the cross sections in the model with RH neutrinos
are bigger than those in the minimal one.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures, To appear in JET
-decay half-lives of neutron-rich nuclei and matter flow in the -process
The -decay half-lives of neutron-rich nuclei with are systematically investigated using the newly developed fully
self-consistent proton-neutron quasiparticle random phase approximation (QRPA),
based on the spherical relativistic Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (RHFB) framework.
Available data are reproduced by including an isospin-dependent proton-neutron
pairing interaction in the isoscalar channel of the RHFB+QRPA model. With the
calculated -decay half-lives of neutron-rich nuclei a remarkable
speeding up of -matter flow is predicted. This leads to enhanced -process
abundances of elements with , an important result for the
understanding of the origin of heavy elements in the universe.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure
Rare Kaon Decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu} in SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N Models
The rare kaon decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu} is considered in the
framework of the models based on the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N (3 - 3 - 1)
gauge group. It is shown that a lower bound of the Z' mass in the 3 - 3 - 1
model with right-handed neutrinos at a value of 3 TeV is derived, while that in
the minimal version -- 1.7 TeV.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figure, late
