A single chain analysis of doped quasi one dimensional spin 1 compounds: paramagnetic versus spin 1/2 doping
We present a numerical study of single chain models of doped spin 1
compounds. We use low energy effective one-dimensional models for both the
cases of paramagnetic and spin-1/2 doping. In the case of paramagnetic doping,
the effective model is equivalent to the bond disordered spin-1/2 chain model
recently analyzed by means of real space renormalization group by Hyman and
Yang. By means of exact diagonalizations in the XX limit, we confirm the
stability of the Haldane phase for weak disorder. Above a critical amount of
disorder, the effective model flows to the so called random singlet fixed
point. In the case of spin-1/2 doping, we argue that the Haldane phase should
be destabilized even for weak disorder. This picture is not in contradiction
with existing experimental data. We also discuss the possible occurrence of
(unobserved) antiferromagnetically ordered phases.Comment: 13 pages, 7 included figure
The roughness of stylolites: Implications of 3D high resolution topography measurements
Stylolites are natural pressure-dissolution surfaces in sedimentary rocks. We
present 3D high resolution measurements at laboratory scales of their complex
roughness. The topography is shown to be described by a self-affine scaling
invariance. At large scales, the Hurst exponent is and
very different from that at small scales where . A
cross-over length scale at around \L_c =1~mm is well characterized.
Measurements are consistent with a Langevin equation that describes the growth
of a stylolitic interface as a competition between stabilizing long range
elastic interactions at large scales or local surface tension effects at small
scales and a destabilizing quenched material disorder.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Equal Time Correlations in Haldane Gap Antiferromagnets
The antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain both with and without single ion
anisotropy is studied. Using the recently proposed density matrix
renormalization group technique we calculate the energy gaps as well as several
different correlation functions. The two gaps, ,
along with associated correlation lengths and velocities are determined. The
numerical results are shown to be in good agreement with theoretical
predictions derived from the nonlinear sigma model and a free boson model. We
also study the excitations that occur at the ends of open chains; in
particular we study the behavior associated with open boundary conditions,
using a model of spins coupled to the free bosons.Comment: 32 pages, uufiles encoded REVTEX 3.0, 19 postscript figures included,

Excitation Spectrum of Antiferromagnetic Chains
The dynamical structure factor of the antiferromagnetic
Heisenberg chain with length 20 at zero temperature is calculated. The lowest
energy states have the delta-function peak at the region . At the lowest energy states are the lower-edge
of the continuum of the scattering state, the strength of which decreases for
large systems. This gives a reasonable explanation for the experimental fact
that no clear peak is observed at the region . This situation is more
apparent for valence-bond solid state. On the contrary for
antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain the lowest energy states are always the edge
of the continuum.Comment: 14pages, Revtex 3.0, No.279
Single production of new gauge bosons from the littlest Higgs model at the energy colliders
In the context of the littlest Higgs(LH) model, we study single production of
the new gauge bosons , and via
collisions and discuss the possibility of detecting these new particles in the
energy collider(). We find that these new particles can
not be detected via the signal in all of the parameter space
preferred by the electroweak precision data. However, the heavy gauge bosons
and may be observed via the decay channel in wide range of the parameter space.Comment: references added, typos corrected. To be published in Phys. Rev.
Hyperon-Nucleon Final State Interaction in Kaon Photoproduction of the Deuteron
Final state hyperon-nucleon interaction in strangeness photoproduction of the
deuteron is investigated making use of the covariant reaction formalism and the
P-matrix approach to the YN system. Remarkably simple analytical expression for
the amplitude is obtained. Pronounced effects due to final state interaction
are predicted including the manifestation of the 2.13 GeV resonance.Comment: LaTeX, 13 page
Logarithmic SUSY electroweak effects on four-fermion processes at TeV energies
We compute the MSSM one-loop contributions to the asymptotic energy behaviour
of fermion-antifermion pair production at future lepton-antilepton colliders.
Besides the conventional logarithms of Renormalization Group origin, extra SUSY
linear logarithmic terms appear of "Sudakov-type". In the TeV range their
overall effect on a variety of observables can be quite relevant and
drastically different from that obtained in the SM case.Comment: 19 pages and 14 figures, corrected version. e-mail:
