Interacting Spin 0 Fields with Torsion via Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau Theory

Here we study the behaviour of the spin 0 sector of the DKP field in spaces with torsion. First we show that in a Riemann-Cartan manifold the DKP field presents an interaction with torsion when minimal coupling is performed, contrary to the behaviour of the KG field, a result that breaks the usual equivalence between the DKP and the KG fields.Next we analyse the case of the Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity (Weitzenböck manifold), showing that in this case there is a perfect agreement between KG and DKP fields. The origins of both results are also discussed.On leave from     

Field Equations of Arbitrary Spin in Space-time with Torsion

A two spinor lagrangian formulation of field equations for massive particle of arbitrary spin is proposed in a curved space-time with torsion. The interaction between fields and torsion is expressed by generalizing the situation of the Dirac equation. The resulting field equations are different (except for the spin-1/2 case) from those obtained by promoting the covariant derivatives of the torsion free equations to include torsion. The non linearity of the equations, that is induced by torsion, can be interpreted as a self-interaction of the particle. The spin-1 and spin-3/2 cases are studied with some details by translating into tensor form. There result the Proca and Rarita-Schwinger field equations with torsion, respectively.

Spin Hall Magnetoresistance and Spin Nernst Magnetothermopower in a Rashba System: Role of the Inverse Spin Galvanic Effect

In ferromagnet/normal‐metal bilayers, the sensitivity of the spin Hall magnetoresistance and the spin Nernst magnetothermopower to the boundary conditions at the interface is of central importance. In general, such boundary conditions can be substantially affected by current‐induced spin polarizations. In order to quantify the role of the latter, we consider a Rashba two‐dimensional electron gas with a ferromagnet attached to one side of the system. The geometry of such a system maximizes the effect of current‐induced spin polarization on the boundary conditions, and the spin Hall magnetoresistance is shown to acquire a non‐trivial and asymmetric dependence on the magnetization direction of the ferromagnet.

On Torsion and Nieh-Yan Form

Using the well-known Chern-Weil formula and its generalization, we systematically construct the Chern-Simons forms and their generalization induced by torsion as well as the Nieh-Yan (N-Y) forms. We also give an argument on the vanishing of integration of N-Y form on any compact manifold without boundary. A systematic construction of N-Y forms in D = 4n dimensions is also given.     

Studies on Nematic Liquid Crystal Using Spin Wave Theory

A spin wave theory is proposed to study nematic liquid crystals. Since the orientation of the molecularlong axis and the angular momentum of the molecule rotating around its long axis have the same direction, operatorscan be introduced to research the nematic liquid crystal. By transforming the intermolecular interaction potential,the Hamiltonian of the system has the same form as that of the ferromagnetic substance. The relation of the orderparameters to the reduced temperature can be obtained. It is in good agreement with the experimental results in thelow temperature region. In the high temperature region close to the transition point, by using the Hamiltonian, thetransition point can be obtained, which is near to the Maier-Saupe‘s result.

Spin Dependent Quark Forces and the Spin Content of the Nucleon

The spin crisis of the nucleon is that the quark spin contribution is only a small fraction of the nucleon spin. A relativistic Dirac equation approach is followed assuming three low mass current quarks in the nucleon described by a (1/2⁺)³ configuration. If the lower component contribution to the normalization of the quark wave function is about 0.18, then the axial charge of the nucleon can be reproduced. However including the same lower component to every quark wave function is not enough to resolve the spin crisis. The net u quark spin z component is predicted as 1.0 and the net d quark spin z component is predicted as –0.25, both in disagreement with experiment. These predictions can be brought into agreement with experiment if flavor independent but spin dependent forces are assumed between the quarks. The strength of the spin dependent force found by empirically fitting the nucleon spin data is shown to be comparable to the spin dependence that can explain the -nucleon mass difference. The spin content of the ⁺ is then predicted using the interactions that reproduce the spin content of the proton.     

Far-infrared probe of size dispersion and population fluctuations in doped self-assembled quantum dots

We investigate the FIR magneto-optical transitions in doped self-assembled InAs quantum dots with an average filling ranging from 0.6 to 6 electrons per dot. Significant changes in the magnetic field dispersion, the line-width and the amplitude of the transitions are observed as the doping level is varied, in agreement with our theoretical calculations. We show that our technique is an effective tool to obtain informations regarding the dot size homogeneity and the electron filling uniformity.Received: 22 July 2003, Published online: 2 October 2003PACS: 73.21.La Quantum dots - 78.20.Ls Magnetooptical effects - 78.30.Fs III-V and II-VI semiconductors - 78.67.Hc Quantum dotsE.

Quantized vortex stability and interaction in the nonlinear wave equation

The stability and interaction of quantized vortices in the nonlinear wave equation (NLWE) are investigated both numerically and analytically. A review of the reduced dynamic law governing the motion of vortex centers in the NLWE is provided. The second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations for the reduced dynamic law are solved analytically for some special initial data. Using 2D polar coordinates, the transversely highly oscillating far field conditions can be efficiently resolved in the phase space, thus giving rise to an efficient and accurate numerical method for the NLWE with non-zero far field conditions. By applying this numerical method to the NLWE, we study the stability of quantized vortices and find numerically that the quantized vortices with winding number m=±1 are dynamically stable, and resp. |m|>1 are dynamically unstable, in the dynamics of NLWE. We then compare numerically quantized vortex interaction patterns of the NLWE with those from the reduced dynamic law qualitatively and quantitatively. Some conclusive findings are obtained, and discussions on numerical and theoretical results are made to provide further understanding of vortex stability and interactions in the NLWE. Finally, the vortex motion under an inhomogeneous potential in the NLWE is also studied.
