Underlying Fermi surface of SrCaCuO in two-dimensional momentum space observed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy
We have performed an angle-resolved photoemission study of the two-leg ladder
system SrCaCuO with = 0 and 11. "Underlying Fermi
surfaces" determined from low energy spectral weight mapping indicates the
quasi-one dimensional nature of the electronic structure. Energy gap caused by
the charge density wave has been observed for =0 and the gap tends to close
with Ca substitution. The absence of a quasi-particle peak even in =11 is in
contrast to the two-dimensional high- cuprates, implying strong carrier
localization related to the hole crystalization.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Quakes in Solid Quark Stars
A starquake mechanism for pulsar glitches is developed in the solid quark
star model. It is found that the general glitch natures (i.e., the glitch
amplitudes and the time intervals) could be reproduced if solid quark matter,
with high baryon density but low temperature, has properties of shear modulus
\mu = 10^{30~34} erg/cm^3 and critical stress \sigma_c = 10^{18~24} erg/cm^3.
The post-glitch behavior may represent a kind of damped oscillations.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures (but Fig.3 is lost), a complete version can be
