BCS-like Bogoliubov Quasiparticles in High-Tc Superconductors Observed by Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy
We performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on
triple-layered high-Tc cuprate Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+delta. We have observed the full
energy dispersion (electron and hole branches) of Bogoliubov quasiparticles and
determined the coherence factors above and below EF as a function of momentum
from the spectral intensity as well as from the energy dispersion based on BCS
theory. The good quantitative agreement between the experiment and the
theoretical prediction suggests the basic validity of BCS formalism in
describing the superconducting state of cuprates.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
The Design of Control Strategy for Blended Series-Parallel Power-Split PHEV – a Simulation Study
Electric Vehicles (EVs) have been extensively researched to reduce the fuel consumption and
tailpipe emission. The series-parallel power-split Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PHEV) has been considered as one
of the most suitable candidates. It contains both an internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electrical storage
system (ESS) to achieve a better driving performance. The energy management system (EMS) is significant for
a PHEV to improve the efficiency of the whole system. Electric vehicle mode (EV), charging depletion (CD)
and charging sustaining (CS) modes will be discussed to build a control strategy in this study. This control
strategy will be implemented with the state of charge (SoC) to show its impact through a simulation study
Three realizations of quantum affine algebra
In this article we establish explicit isomorphisms between three realizations
of quantum twisted affine algebra : the Drinfeld ("current")
realization, the Chevalley realization and the so-called realization,
investigated by Faddeev, Reshetikhin and Takhtajan.Comment: 15 page
Superconducting gap symmetry of Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy
We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy
on the optimally-doped BaKFeAs compound and determined
the accurate momentum dependence of the superconducting (SC) gap in four
Fermi-surface sheets including a newly discovered outer electron pocket at the
M point. The SC gap on this pocket is nearly isotropic and its magnitude is
comparable ( 11 meV) to that of the inner electron and hole
pockets (12 meV), although it is substantially larger than that of the
outer hole pocket (6 meV). The Fermi-surface dependence of the SC gap
value is basically consistent with () = coscos
formula expected for the extended s-wave symmetry. The observed finite
deviation from the simple formula suggests the importance of multi-orbital
effects.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, 1 tabl
Evolution of the Fermi surface with carrier concentration in Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta}
We show, by use of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, that underdoped
Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} appears to have a large Fermi surface centered at
(\pi,\pi), even for samples with a T_c as low as 15 K. No clear evidence of a
Fermi surface pocket around (\pi/2,\pi/2) has been found. These conclusions are
based on a determination of the minimum gap locus in the pseudogap regime T_c <
T < T^*, which is found to coincide with the locus of gapless excitations in
momentum space (Fermi surface) determined above T^*. These results suggest that
the pseudogap is more likely of precursor pairing rather than magnetic origin.Comment: 4 pages, revtex, 4 postscript color figure
Dual Ginzburg-Landau Theory for Nonperturbative QCD
Nonperturbative QCD is studied with the dual Ginzburg-Landau theory, where
color confinement is realized through the dual Higgs mechanism by QCD-monopole
condensation. We obtain a general analytic formula for the string tension. A
compact formula is derived for the screened inter-quark potential in the
presence of light dynamical quarks. The QCD phase transition at finite
temperature is studied using the effective potential formalism. The string
tension and the QCD-monopole mass are largely reduced near the critical
temperature, . The surface tension is estimated from the effective
potential at . We propose also a new scenario of the quark-gluon-plasma
creation through the color-electric flux-tube annihilation. Finally, we discuss
a close relation between instantons and QCD-monopoles.Comment: Talk presented by H. Suganuma at the Int. Conf. ``CONFINEMENT95'',
