Quantum group invariant fermionic gases: GLp,q(2) and SUp/q(2) invariances

We first investigate the high-temperature behavior of a two-parameter deformed quantum group fermionic gas with GL_p,q(2) symmetry, where (p,q)C×C. We then discuss both the structural and thermodynamical differences between GL_p,q(2)- and SU_r(2)-fermions with r=p/q where (p,q)R×R.     

Excess molar heat capacity of isobutyric acid–water binary liquid mixtures near and far away from the critical temperature

The heat capacity of the liquid–liquid mixture isobutyric acid–water has been measured for the first time near and far away from its critical point using an adiabatic calorimeter. The measurements were performed at atmospheric pressure, in the one phase region as a function of three temperatures: (1) T − T_C = 0.055 °C, (2) T − T_C = 3.055 °C, (3) T − T_C = 8.055 °C and of the composition X in acid (IA). The heat capacity C_p decreases rapidly when X increases at the used temperatures. Near the critical composition, C_p is not affected by the correlation of the concentration fluctuations.

The molar excess heat capacity of the system under investigation was analysed along the phase diagram and considered as a structural transformation effect.     

Normal state magnetoresistance in stable magnetic fields up to 20 T in single crystalline La1.76Sr0.24CuO4

The in-plane normal state resistance R_n(T, H) in an overdoped La_2−xSr_xCuO₄ crystal (x = 0.24) has been measured in magnetic fields up to 20 T parallel to the c-axis. The R_n(T) curves in constant fields show a quadratic behavior in a wide range of temperature above T_c(H). Some characteristic features in R_n(H) are observed. In the low-field region R_n(H) increases with increasing H, reaches a maximum and then decreases with further increasing H. Possible origins for the observed unusual R_n(T, H) behavior are discussed.

Investigation of light scalar resonances a0(980)/ƒ0(980) with ANKE

A program to investigate the light scalar resonances a₀(980)/ƒ₀(980) in hadronic interactions via their decay into the πη and channels has started at the ANKE spectrometer of COSY-Jülich. As the first step the reactions pp → dπ⁺X and pp → dK⁺X have been measured at two energies, T_p = 2.65 GeV and 2.83 GeV. The status of the analysis at T_p = 2.65 GeV is presented. A total cross section of about 50 nb has been determined for the reaction .     

Resistivity and thermoelectric power of Bi2Sr2Ca−xPrxCu2Oy system

Samples of Bi₂Sr₂Ca_1−xPr_xCu₂O_y have been characterized by resistivity and thermoelectric power measurements. All metallic samples show superconductivity with a maximum T_c = 90 K at X = 0.2. The sample of x = 0.6 shows a crossover from hopping conduction at low temperature above T_c to metallic conduction at high temperature. For the metallic samples below x = 0.6, the results of thermoelectric power are well fitted by both of a phenomenological band spectrum model and the Nagaosa and Lee model.     

Two types of the effective mass divergence and the Grüneisen ratio in heavy-fermion metals

The behavior of the specific heat c_p, effective mass M^*, and the thermal expansion coefficient of a Fermi system located near the fermion condensation quantum phase transition (FCQPT) is considered. We observe the first type behavior if the system is close to FCQPT: the specific heat , , while the thermal expansion coefficient . Thus, the Grüneisen ratio Γ(T)=/c_p does not diverges. At the transition region, where the system passes over from the non-Fermi liquid to the Landau Fermi liquid, the ratio diverges as . When the system becomes the Landau Fermi liquid, Γ(T,r)∝1/r, with r being a distance from the quantum critical point. Provided the system has undergone FCQPT, the second type takes place: the specific heat behaves as , M^*∝1/T, and =a+bT with a,b being constants. Again, the Grüneisen ratio diverges as .     

Temperature range for critical scaling behavior in YBCO thin films

The magnetic and transport properties of thin films and single crystals of YBa₂Cu₃O_7−δ are compared. For measurements on thin films, the apparent critical scaling behavior is observed to exist over a temperature range from 87 K down to the vortex-glass transition T_g = 84.2 K at 2.5 kOE and from 83 K to T_g = 70.4 K at 50 kOe. The inflection point (T_inf) in temperature dependent resistivity measurements R(T) coincides with the highest temperature at which current-voltage (I–V) characteristics are found to scale. The region between T_g and T_inf shows a behavior characteristics of thermally activated flux motion, while above T_inf I–V curves show ohmic behavior. No similar scaling region is observed in some single crystal results, supporting recent claims that the phase transition in some single crystals may not be critical in nature (of order greater than one).     

Probing the isospin dependent in-medium nucleon–nucleon cross section by nucleon emissions

The effects of the symmetry potential and the isospin dependent in-medium nucleon–nucleon (NN) cross section on the number of proton(neutron) emissions N_p(N_n) are studied respectively within an isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics (IQMD) model. The isospin dependent in-medium NN cross section is found to have a strong influence on N_p(N_n) but N_p(N_n) is not sensitive to the symmetry potential for the neutron-deficient colliding system at relatively high energies. We propose to make use of the N_p(N_n) as a probe to extract information on the isospin dependent in-medium NN cross section.     

Tracking the formation of 2223 BiSrCaCu oxygen compounds by resistivity and susceptibility measurements reaching Tc(0)=115 K

Unsubstituted and lead-antimony substituted 2223 BiSrCaCu Oxygen compounds have been synthesized and compared by resistivity R(T) and susceptibility χ(T) measurements and chemical analysis. The R(T) and χ(T) measurements show that interface effects occur which are reflected in the R(T) characteristics. The chemical analysis of samples with a resistance zero T_c(0)=114 K and a diamagnetic onset at 115 K yields a severe loss of lead from nominally 40 at% down to about 3 at%, whereas the T_c(0)=110 K samples contain up to about 30 at% of lead. It is assumed that for the formation of the 115 K phase lead oxide acts as a catalyst not being incorporated to a considerable amount into the lattice.

Measurements of interaction cross sections and radii of He isotopes

Secondary beams of ³He, ⁴He, ⁶He, and ⁸He were produced through the projectile fragmentation of an 800 MeV/nucleon ¹¹B primary beam. Interaction cross sections (σ_I) of all He isotopes of 790 MeV/nucleon on Be, C, and Al targets were measured by a transmission-type experiment. The interaction nuclear radii of He isotopes R_I(He) = (σ_I/π)^1/2 − R _I(T) where R_I(T) is the radius of the target nucleus, have been deduced to be R_I(³He) = 1.59 ± 0.06 fm, R_I(⁴He) = 1.40 ± 0.05 fm, R_I(⁶He) = 2.21 ± 0.06 fm, and R_I(⁸He) = 2.52 ± 0.06 fm.     

Duality and quantum-algebra symmetry of the AN−1 open spin chain with diagonal boundary fields

We show that the transfer matrix of the A_N−1⁽¹⁾ open spin chair with diagonal boundary fields has the symmetry U_q(SU(l)) × U_q(SU(N−l)) × U(1), as well as a “duality” symmetry which maps l ↔ N − l. We exploit these symmetries to compute exact boundary S-matrices in the regime with q real.     

Magnetoreflection studies on the band structure of antimony-bismuth alloys

A magnetoreflection study of Sb rich SbBi alloys is presented which indicates departures from the Tichovolsky-Mavroides interpolation scheme for the T-point band gap. Line shape peculiarities due to n_v ≠ n_c transitions, similar to those found in As and Sb, have been observed which suggest relocation of the band extrema in the Brillouin zone.     

Thermal transport properties in a He---He mixture near and below the superfluid transition

Measurements of the thermal conductivity and of X/T are reported for a ³He---⁴He mixture with a ³He mole fraction X = 0.622. At T_λ, X/T passes through a sharp peak. A comparison with the theory of Khalatnikov is presented. The relaxation times τ(T) to reach steady state conditions show qualitatively the same behaviors as X/T.     

Temperature dependence of intensities and widths of N2-broadened lines in the 15 μm CO2 band from tunable laser measurements

Intensities and nitrogen-broadened widths of several low-J lines in the Q-branch of the 15 μm band of CO₂ have been determined over the temperature range 200–300 K. Measurements were made with a tunable infra-red diode laser spectrometer having a spectral resolution 10^-4 cm^-1. Measured intensities are uniformly about 7% lower than available calculations which were based on previous measurements of band intensity. Measured line widths are higher than available calculations and generally followed the relation

b_L⁰(T)=b_L⁰(T₀)(T₀|T)ⁿ

with n = 0.74 (standard deviation 0.08).     

Pressure-induced superconducting ternary hydride H3SXe: A theoretical investigation

In general, heavy elements contribute only to acoustic phonon modes, which are less important for the superconductivity of hydrides. However, it was revealed that the heavier elements could enhance the phonon-mediated superconductivity in ternary hydrides. In the H₃S–Xe system, a novel H₃SXe compound was discovered by first-principle calculations. The structural phase transitions of H3SXe under high pressures were studied. The R-3m phase of H₃SXe was predicted to appear at pressures above 80 GPa, which transitions to C2/m, P-3m1, and Pm-3m phases at pressures of 90, 160, and 220 GPa, respectively. It has been anticipated that the Pm-3m-H₃SXe phase with a similar structural feature as that of Im-3m-H₃S is a potential high-temperature superconductor with a T_c of 89 K at 240 GPa. The T_c value of H₃SXe is lower than that of H₃S at high pressure. The “H₃S” host lattice of Pm- 3m-H₃SXe is a crucial factor influencing the T_c value. The Xe atoms could accelerate the hydrogen-bond symmetrization. With the increase of the atomic number, the T_c value linearly increases in the H₃S–noble-gas-element system. This indicates that the superconductivity can be modulated by changing the relative atomic mass of the noble-gas element.     

New experimental evidence of the structural modification in single crystal Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy by X-ray diffraction observation

The variations of the high angle 00 peak-shape by means of X-ray l scans of the 00l fundamental reflections were investigated in detail for a highly oriented Bi₂Sr₂CaCu₂O_y (Bi2212) crystal with sufficiently small intrinsic mosaicity and the same crystal annealed in air at 250, 300, 400, 600, and 750°C for 20 h in consequence. For the first time, we observed a new additional reflection almost overlapped original 00l fundamental reflection at annealing temperature below 400°C by X-ray diffraction measurement, which shows that there coexisted two sets of lattice periodicity in the c-direction of the annealed crystal. The new additional reflection appeared at 250°C and disappeared at 400°C. Its intensity was increased at 300°C. The measurements of the AC susceptibility, c-axis parameter and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the 00 peaks showed that the new additional reflection was associated with the oxygen diffusion in CuO₂ planes and the changes of strain field. The results provide the new experimental evidence that the structural distortion is more sensitive to the oxygen diffusion in CuO₂ planes than to that in Bi–O layers.     

Swampland dS conjecture in mimetic f(R,T) gravity

In this paper, we study a theory of gravity called mimetic f(R, T) in the presence of swampland dS conjecture. For this purpose, we introduce several inflation solutions of the Hubble parameter H(N) from f(R, T) = R + δT gravity model, in which R is Ricci scalar, and T denotes the trace of the energy–momentum tensor. Also, δ and N are the free parameter and a number of e-fold, respectively. Then we calculate quantities such as potential, Lagrange multiplier, slow-roll, and some cosmological parameters such as n_s and r. Then we challenge the mentioned inflationary model from the swampland dS conjecture. We discuss the stability of the model and investigate the compatibility or incompatibility of this inflationary scenario with the latest Planck observable data.
