    E-B Mixing in T-violating Superconductors

    Full text link
    We analyze time reversal violating processes of the p-wave superconductor. The Landau-Ginzuburg effective action has an induced T-violating term of electromagnetic potentials which resembles the Chern-Simons term and causes a mixing between the electric field and the magnetic field. Several T-violating electromagnetic phenomena caused by this term, such as unusual Meissner effect, Hall effect without magnetic field, and Farady rotation without magnetic field are investigated.Comment: 10 pages, no figures, LaTex.

    The square-lattice spiral magnet Ba_2CuGe_2O_7 in an in-plane magnetic field

    Full text link
    The magnetic structure of Ba_2CuGe_2O_7 is investigated by neutron diffraction in magnetic fields applied along several directions in the (a,b)(a,b) plane of the crystal. In relatively weak fields, H0.5H\lesssim 0.5~T, the propagation vector of the spin-spiral rotates to form a finite angle with the field direction. This angle depends on the orientation of HH itself. The rotation of the propagation vector is accompanied by a re-orientation of the plane of spin rotation in the spiral. The observed behaviour is well described by a continuous-limit form of a free energy functional that includes exchange and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, as well as the Zeeman energy and an empirical anisotropy term.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure

    Axial Anomaly Effect in Chiral p-wave Superconductor

    Full text link
    We analyze the chiral p-wave superconductor in the low temperature region. The superconductor has a epsilon_{x} p_{x} + i epsilon_{y} p_{y}-wave gap in two dimensional space (2D). Near the second superconducting transition point, the system could be described by a quasi-1D chiral p-wave model in 2D. The axial anomaly occurs in such a model and causes an accumulation of the quasiparticle in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. The effect is related to the winding number of the gap.Comment: 12 pages, 1 figure, RevTex. The final version is accepted for publication in J. Phys. Soc. Jp

    Integer Quantum Hall Effect with Realistic Boundary Condition : Exact Quantization and Breakdown

    Full text link
    A theory of integer quantum Hall effect(QHE) in realistic systems based on von Neumann lattice is presented. We show that the momentum representation is quite useful and that the quantum Hall regime(QHR), which is defined by the propagator in the momentum representation, is realized. In QHR, the Hall conductance is given by a topological invariant of the momentum space and is quantized exactly. The edge states do not modify the value and topological property of σxy\sigma_{xy} in QHR. We next compute distribution of current based on effective action and find a finite amount of current in the bulk and the edge, generally. Due to the Hall electric field in the bulk, breakdown of the QHE occurs. The critical electric field of the breakdown is proportional to B3/2B^{3/2} and the proportional constant has no dependence on Landau levels in our theory, in agreement with the recent experiments.Comment: 48 pages, figures not included, some additions and revision

    Spin and spin-spin correlations in chargino pair production at future linear e+e- colliders

    Get PDF
    A possibility to measure the spin and spin-spin correlations of a chargino pair is investigated in the process electron positron -> chargino_1 anti-chargino_1 -> (neutralino_1 quark anti-quark) (neutralino_1 quark anti-quark) at future linear-collider energies. The total and the differential cross sections are calculated by the GRACE system which allows for the full spin correlation. Experimental sensitivity of the measurements are examined by assuming the limited detector resolution, the initial state radiation and the beam-beam effect (beamstrahlung). It is found that generally the spin-spin correlation can only be measured with a lower sensitivity than the chargino spin itself. The dependence of the correlation measurements on the relevant SUSY parameters can be seen for a light sneutrino case, but the situation becomes worse for a heavier sneutrino.Comment: 23 pages, 7 figures, 6 tables; added reference for section
