Possibility of Selection for Mineral Concentration in Orchardgrass by X-Ray Microanalysis
To assess the ability of X-ray microanalysis for screening breeding populations of orchardgrass in mineral concentration, correlations between chemical and X-ray analysis were investigated. Six orchardgrass plants with high- and low-Mg concentrations were examined for three harvest dates in 1995. The samples were separated into leaf blade, leaf sheath, culm and head. Mg concentration in leaf and head were higher than in sheath and in culm. P concentration was highest in the head, and lowest in the sheath. Correlations between chemical and X-ray analysis were r=0.692***, 0.526***, 0.252* and 0.562*** for Mg, Ca, K and P, respectively. Correlation coefficients between chemical and X-ray analysis were highest for Mg among 4 minerals. X-ray microanalysis can be used to screen orchardgrass plants for Mg concentration at initial growth stage
Competition between spin exchange and correlated hopping
The ground-state phase diagram is numerically studied for an electronic model
consisting of the spin exchange term (J) and the correlated hopping term (t_3:
the three-site term). This model has no single-particle hopping and the ratio
of the two terms is controlled by a parameter \alpha \equiv 4 t_3 / J. The case
of \alpha=1 corresponds to complete suppression of single-particle hopping in
the strong-coupling limit of the Hubbard model. In one dimension, phase
separation takes place below a critical value \alpha_c = 0.36-0.63 which
depends on the electron density. Spin gap opens in the whole region except the
phase-separated one. For \alpha \gsim 1.2 and low hole densities,
charge-density-wave correlations are the most dominant, whereas singlet-pairing
correlations are the most dominant in the remaining region. The possibility of
superconductivity in the two-dimensional case is also discussed, based on
equal-time pairing correlations.Comment: 4 pages including 5 figures. Proceedings of ISSP-Kashiwa 2001

Electron Addition Spectrum in the Supersymmetric t-J Model with Inverse-Square Interaction
The electron addition spectrum A^+(k,omega) is obtained analytically for the
one-dimensional (1D) supersymmetric t-J model with 1/r^2 interaction. The
result is obtained first for a small-sized system and its validity is checked
against the numerical calculation. Then the general expression is found which
is valid for arbitrary size of the system. The thermodynamic limit of
A^+(k,omega) has a simple analytic form with contributions from one spinon, one
holon and one antiholon all of which obey fractional statistics. The upper edge
of A^+(k,omega) in the (k,omega) plane includes a delta-function peak which
reduces to that of the single-electron band in the low-density limit.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. Let
Exact spin dynamics of the 1/r^2 supersymmetric t-J model in a magnetic field
The dynamical spin structure factor S^{zz}(Q,omega) in the small momentum
region is derived analytically for the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model
with 1/r^2 interaction. Strong spin-charge separation is found in the spin
dynamics. The structure factor S^{zz}(Q,omega) with a given spin polarization
does not depend on the electron density in the small momentum region. In the
thermodynamic limit, only two spinons and one antispinon (magnon) contribute to
S^{zz}(Q,omega). These results are derived via solution of the SU(2,1)
Sutherland model in the strong coupling limit.Comment: 20 pages, 8 figures. Accepted for publication in J.Phys.
Activity of Japanese Society of Grassland Science
The Japanese Society of Grassland Science (JSGS) was founded in 1954 for the purposes of progressing grassland and forage crop sciences and fostering grassland agriculture and better management of grassland for animal production in Japan. From the first, the members of JSGS have included interdisciplinary scientists from forage crop science, forestry, animal science, agribusiness and many related fields. In the 50 years since its foundation, JSGS has made large contributions to the progress of both science and industry in Japan. The number of JSGS members is now declining slightly, but there are still about 950 including 800 individual members and 150 organisations or private companies. The profile of the current members is mainly scientists working in university or governmental and private research institutes
Dynamical Properties of the 1/r^2-Type Supersymmetric t-J Model in a Magnetic Field: Manifestation of Spin-Charge Separation
Quasi-particle picture in a magnetic field is pursued for dynamical spin and
charge correlation functions of the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model
with inverse-square interaction. With use of exact diagonalization and the
asymptotic Bethe-ansatz equations for finite systems, excitation contents of
relevant excited states are identified which are valid in the thermodynamic
limit. The excitation contents are composed of spinons, antispinons, holons and
antiholons obeying fractional statistics. Both longitudinal and transverse
components of the dynamical spin structure factor are independent of the
electron density in the region where only quasi-particles with spin degrees of
freedom (spinons and antispinons) contribute. The dynamical charge structure
factor does not depend on the spin-polarization density in the region where
only quasi-particles with charge (holons and antiholons) are excited. These
features indicate the strong spin-charge separation in dynamics, reflecting the
high symmetry of the model.Comment: 10 pages, 1 table (PS file), 15 figures (JPEG file). Submitted to J.

Meta-orbital Transition in Heavy-fermion Systems: Analysis by Dynamical Mean Field Theory and Self-consistent Renormalization Theory of Orbital Fluctuations
We investigate a two-orbital Anderson lattice model with Ising orbital
intersite exchange interactions by means of dynamical mean field theory
combined with the static mean field approximation of the intersite orbital
interactions. Focusing on Ce-based heavy-fermion compounds, we examine the
orbital crossover between the two orbital states, when the total f-electron
number per site n_f is n_f ~ 1. We show that a "meta-orbital" transition, at
which the occupancy of the two orbitals changes steeply, occurs when the
hybridization between the ground-state f-electron orbital and conduction
electrons are smaller than that between the excited f-electron orbital and
conduction electrons. Near the meta-orbital critical end point, the orbital
fluctuations are enhanced, and couple with the charge fluctuations. A critical
theory of the meta-orbital fluctuations is also developed by applying the
self-consistent renormalization theory of itinerant electron magnetism to the
orbital fluctuations. The critical end point, first-order transition and
crossover are described within Gaussian approximations of orbital fluctuations.
We discuss the relevance of our results to CeAl2, CeCu2Si2, CeCu2Ge2 and the
related compounds, which all have low-lying crystalline-electric-field excited
states.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figures, J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 79, (2010) 11471
Exact dynamical structure factor of the degenerate Haldane-Shastry model
The dynamical structure factor of the K-component (K = 2,3,4)
spin chain with the 1/r^2 exchange is derived exactly at zero temperature for
arbitrary size of the system. The result is interpreted in terms of a free
quasi-particle picture which is generalization of the spinon picture in the
SU(2) case; the excited states consist of K quasi-particles each of which is
characterized by a set of K-1 quantum numbers. Divergent singularities of
at the spectral edges are derived analytically. The analytic
result is checked numerically for finite systems.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. Let
