The minimal superconformal (p,0) supercurrents in two dimensions

Superconformal transformations in rigid (p, q) superspace are defined. For the (p, 0) case it is shown how the general superspace Noethercurrent for any given model can be reduced to a minimal supercurrent. This generalization of the energy-momentum tensor consists of two (p, 0) superfields, and the conservation equations show that no auxiliary currents are present in their components.     

Electron-phonon interaction in NbB2: a comparison with MgB2

We present a comparison of electron-phonon interaction in NbB₂ and MgB₂, calculated using full-potential, density-functional-based methods in P6/mmm crystal structure. Our results, described in terms of (i) electronic structure, (ii) phonon density of states F(ω), (iii) Eliashberg function α²F(ω), and (iv) the solutions of the isotropic Eliashberg gap equation, clearly show significant differences in the electron-phonon interaction in NbB₂ and MgB₂. We find that the average electron-phonon coupling constant λ is equal to 0.59 for MgB₂ and 0.43 for NbB₂, leading to superconducting transition temperatures T_c at around 22 K for MgB₂ and 3 K for NbB₂.     

Electron-phonon interaction in the quantum well state of the 1 ML Na/Cu(111) system

The electron-phonon interaction in the quantum well state formed by a Na monolayer coating on Cu(111) is investigated theoretically. The calculations show that the electron-phonon coupling constant γ in this state decreases insignificantly (≈1%) compared to the value of γ for a clean copper surface. The corresponding electron-phonon contribution to the lifetime τ of the quantum well state increases by a factor of 1.5 compared to τ for the clean Cu(111) surface.     

(8,0) Locally supersymmetric sigma models with conformal invariance in two dimensions

The (8,0) conformal supergravity, and an action which describes its coupling to an arbitrary number of (8,0) scalar multiplets are constructed. The 64+64 components of the conformal supermultiplet occur as Lagrange multipliers which lead to differential and algebraic constraints on the fields of the scalar multiplets. Solving the algebraic constraints yields an (8,0) locally supersymmetric sigma model based on the manifold SO(8 + n,m)/SO(8)×SO(n,m), where n,m ⩾ 0.

Variation of electron energy loss spectra of Ni (100) with increasing primary energy

Electron energy loss spectra of clean Ni(1 0 0) show for the first time a 17 eV peak, which is attributed to an interband transtiion. All the observed peaks are shifted to higher energies as the primary electron energy E_p increases from 102 to 2045 eV. This shift is explained by a continuous decay in energy of the primary electrons inside the crystal. At E_p ? 700 eV, the decay takes place in the surface region of the crystal, while at E_p > 700 eV it takes place mainly in the bulk. The rate of decay increases with increasing temperature of the crystal between 300 and 900 K.     

Monte Carlo study of percolation of random discs in two dimensions: Variable range interaction

Monte Carlo study of percolation of random discs in two dimensions with variable range of interaction is carried out. The critical exponents β and γ are found to be the same when analysed as a function of range of interaction or critical area fraction, for all levels of dilution.     

Volume form of coupling interaction in semi-direct (n, γ) and (p, γ) reactions

A coupling interaction between the nucleon and the nuclear E1 mode having a volume radial form instead of the usual surface one is used in the semi-direct nucleon radiative-capture theory. The calculated cross sections for the ²⁰⁸Pb(n,γ) and ¹⁴²Ce(p,γ) reactions in the giantresonance region reproduce the measured ones both in shape and magnitude. Satisfactory agreement is achieved in comparing the predicted and detected γ-ray spectra following neutron capture by ²⁰⁸Pb. A detailed analysis of the energy and angular-momentum dependence of the matrix elements when the volume and surface form factors are used, is performed.     

The large N limit of the O(N) Heisenberg spin system in two dimensions

The large N limit of the O(N) Heisenberg spin system in two dimensions (a lattice version of the non-linear σ-model) is analysed by the collective field technique. A compact expression for the mass gap and the β-function is obtained for arbitrary but fixed gN. The strong and weak coupling limits of this expression correctly reproduce the known results.     

Observation of a near-threshold enhancement in the omega(phi) mass spectrum from the doubly OZI-suppressed decay J/psi-->gamma(omega)phi

An enhancement near threshold is observed in the omega(phi) invariant mass spectrum from the doubly Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka-suppressed decays of J/psi-->gamma(omega)phi, based on a sample of 5.8 x 10(7) J/psi events collected with the BESII detector. A partial wave analysis shows that this enhancement favors JP=0+, and its mass and width are M=1812(+19)(-26)(stat)+/-18(syst) MeV/c2 and Gamma=105+/-20(stat)+/-28(syst) MeV/c2. The product branching fraction is determined to be B(J/psi-->gammaX)B(X-->omega(phi))=[2.61+/-0.27(stat)+/-0.65(syst)]x10(-4).     

Critical exponents of Manhattan Hamiltonian walks in two dimensions,from Potts andO(n) models

We consider a set of Hamiltonian circuits filling a Manhattan lattice, i.e., a square lattice with alternating traffic regulation. We show that the generating function (with fugacityz) of this set is identical to the critical partition function of aq-state Potts model on an unoriented square lattice withq ^1/2 =z. The set of critical exponents governing correlations of Hamiltonian circuits is derived using a Coulomb gas technique. These exponents are also found to be those of an O(n) vector model in the low-temperature phase withn =q ^1/2 =z. The critical exponents in the limitz = 0 are then those of spanning trees (q= 0) and of dense polymers (n=0,T < T_c), corresponding to a conformal theory with central chargeC = –2. This shows that the Manhattan orientation and the Hamiltonian constraint of filling all the lattice are irrelevant for the infrared critical properties of Hamiltonian walks.
