Effects of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction on low-energy magnetic excitations in copper benzoate

We have investigated the physical effects of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction in copper benzoate. In the low-field limit, the spin gap is found to vary as H(2/3)ln((1/6)(J/mu(B)H(s)) (H(s): an effective staggered field induced by the external field H) in agreement with the prediction of conformal field theory, while the staggered magnetization varies as H(1/3) and the ln((1/3)(J/mu(B)H(s)) correction predicted by conformal field theory is not confirmed. The linear scaling relation between the momentum shift and the magnetization is broken. We have determined the coupling constant of the DM interaction and have given a complete quantitative account for the field dependence of the spin gaps along all three principal axes, without resorting to additional interactions such as interchain coupling. A crossover to strong applied field behavior is predicted for further experimental verification.     

Shape of the quantum diffusion front

We show that quantum diffusion has well-defined front shape. After an initial transient, the wave packet front (tails) is described by a stretched exponential P(x,t) = A(t)exp(-absolute value of [x/w](gamma)), with 1 < gamma < infinity, where w(t) is the spreading width which scales as w(t) approximately t(beta), with 0 < beta < or = 1. The two exponents satisfy the universal relation gamma = 1/(1-beta). We demonstrate these results through numerical work on one-dimensional quasiperiodic systems and the three-dimensional Anderson model of disorder. We provide an analytical derivation of these relations by using the memory function formalism of quantum dynamics. Furthermore, we present an application to experimental results for the quantum kicked rotor.     

Correlation time and diffusion coefficient imaging: application to a granular flow system

A parametric method for spatially resolved measurements for velocity autocorrelation functions, R(u)(tau) = , expressed as a sum of exponentials, is presented. The method is applied to a granular flow system of 2-mm oil-filled spheres rotated in a half-filled horizontal cylinder, which is an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with velocity autocorrelation function R(u)(tau) = e(- ||tau ||/tau(c)), where tau(c) is the correlation time and D = tau(c) is the diffusion coefficient. The pulsed-field-gradient NMR method consists of applying three different gradient pulse sequences of varying motion sensitivity to distinguish the range of correlation times present for particle motion. Time-dependent apparent diffusion coefficients are measured for these three sequences and tau(c) and D are then calculated from the apparent diffusion coefficient images. For the cylinder rotation rate of 2.3 rad/s, the axial diffusion coefficient at the top center of the free surface was 5.5 x 10(-6) m(2)/s, the correlation time was 3 ms, and the velocity fluctuation or granular temperature was 1.8 x 10(-3) m(2)/s(2). This method is also applicable to study transport in systems involving turbulence and porous media flows.     

Dynamic structure factor of vibrating fractals

Motivated by novel experimental work and the lack of an adequate theory, we study the dynamic structure factor S(k,t) of large vibrating fractal networks at large wave numbers k. We show that the decay of S(k,t) is dominated by the spatially averaged mean square displacement of a network node, which evolves subdiffusively in time, ((u[over →](i)(t)-u[over →](i)(0))(2))～t(ν), where ν depends on the spectral dimension d(s) and fractal dimension d(f). As a result, S(k,t) decays as a stretched exponential S(k,t)≈S(k)e(-(Γ(k)t)(ν)) with Γ(k)～k(2/ν). Applications to a variety of fractal-like systems are elucidated.     

Aeolian transport layer

We investigate the airborne transport of particles on a granular surface by the saltation mechanism through numerical simulation of particle motion coupled with turbulent flow. We determine the saturated flux q(s) and show that its behavior is consistent with classical empirical relations obtained from wind tunnel measurements. Our results also allow one to propose and explain a new relation valid for small fluxes, namely, q(s) = a(u*-u(t))alpha, where u* and u(t) are the shear and threshold velocities of the wind, respectively, and the scaling exponent is alpha approximately 2. We obtain an expression for the velocity profile of the wind distorted by the particle motion due to the feedback and discover a novel dynamical scaling relation. We also find a new expression for the dependence of the height of the saltation layer as a function of the wind velocity.     

Absolute Intensities Measurements in the nu(4) + nu(5) Band of (12)C(2)H(2): Analysis of Herman-Wallis Effects and Forbidden Transitions

We measured absolute line intensities in two bands of (12)C(2)H(2) near 7.5 μm, namely the nu(4) + nu(5)(Sigma(+)(u))-0(Sigma(+)(g)) and nu(4) + nu(5)(Delta(u))-0(Sigma(+)(g)) bands, using Fourier transform spectroscopy with an accuracy estimated to be better than 2%. Using theoretical predictions from Watson [J. K. G. Watson, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 188, 78 (1998)], the observation of the forbidden nu(4) + nu(5)(Delta(u))-0(Sigma(+)(g)) band and the Herman-Wallis behavior exhibited by its rotational lines were studied quantitatively in terms of two types of interactions affecting the levels involved by the band: l-type resonance and Coriolis interaction. In the case of the nu(4) + nu(5)(Sigma(+)(u))-0(Sigma(+)(g)) band, the influence of l-type resonance is also confirmed. We also attributed the intensity asymmetry observed between the R and P branches of that latter band to a Coriolis interaction with l = 1 levels. We did not observe the nu(4) + nu(5)(Sigma(-)(u))-0(Sigma(+)(g)) band, consisting only of a Q branch, in agreement with Watson's prediction. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Weakly bound finite systems: (?He)N-Rb?(3Σu), clustering structures from a quantum Monte Carlo approach

We report here ((4)He)(N)-Rb(2)((3)Σ(u)) complexes, 2 ≤ N ≤ 20, analysed through a quantum diffusion Monte Carlo stochastic approach. The calculations show that the spin stretched dimer molecule is bound outside the pure He sub-complex, due to the stronger He-He potential as compared with the He-Rb(2) interaction, while the rare gas atom moiety presents, in turn, a shell-like structure with ten He adatoms completing the first shell. Our results agree with previous findings on this and similarly weakly interacting systems.     

Optical-Optical Double Resonance Spectroscopy of the H1(u)((3)P(1))-A(3)Pi(1u)-X(1)Sigma(+)(g) Transition of I(2)

We report the analysis of the H1(u)((3)P(1)) state of I(2) by optical-optical double resonance. This state lies in the second tier of ion-pair states and its observation was achieved by using the (1 + 2) photoexcitation sequence using the A(3)Pi(1u) state as an intermediate.

Long-distance dominance of the CP asymmetry in B→X(s,d)γ decays

We show that in the standard model the parametrically leading (by a factor 1/α(s)) contribution to the inclusive CP asymmetry in B→X(s,d)γ decays arises from a long-distance effect in the interference of the electromagnetic dipole amplitude with the amplitude for an up-quark penguin transition accompanied by soft gluon emission. Using model estimates for the associated hadronic parameter Λ(17)(u), we predict a value in the range -0.6% < A(X(s)γ)(SM) < 2.8%. In view of current experimental data, a future precision measurement of the flavor-averaged CP asymmetry would signal the presence of new physics only if a value below -2% was found. A cleaner probe of new physics is offered by the difference of the CP asymmetries in charged versus neutral B→X(s,d)γ decays.     

Observation of B --> K(+/-) pi(0) and B --> (K)0 pi(0), and evidence for B --> pi(+)pi(-)

We have studied charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into two-body final states with kaons and pions and observe three new processes with the following branching fractions: beta(B-->pi(+)pi(-)) = (4.3(+1. 6)(-1.4)+/-0.5)x10(-6), beta(B-->K(0)pi(0)) = (14.6(+5.9+2.4)(-5.1-3. 3))x10(-6), and beta(B-->K(+)/-pi(0)) = (11.6(+3.0+1.4)(-2.7-1.3))x10(-6). We also update our previous measurements for the decays B-->K(+)/-pi(-/+) and B+/--->K(0)pi(+/-).     

Anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in nonlinear lattices, single walled nanotubes, and billiard gas channels

We study anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in low-dimensional systems ranging from nonlinear lattices, single walled carbon nanotubes, to billiard gas channels. We find that in all discussed systems, the anomalous heat conductivity can be connected with the anomalous diffusion, namely, if energy diffusion is sigma(2)(t)=2Dt(alpha) (01) implies an anomalous heat conduction with a divergent thermal conductivity (beta>0), and more interestingly, a subdiffusion (alpha<1) implies an anomalous heat conduction with a convergent thermal conductivity (beta<0), consequently, the system is a thermal insulator in the thermodynamic limit. Existing numerical data support our theoretical prediction.     

Magic nucleus 132Sn and its one-neutron-hole neighbor 131Sn

Prompt and delayed gamma-ray cascades in doubly magic 132Sn and its neighbor 131Sn have been studied at Gammasphere using a 248Cm fission source. Isotopic assignments of unknown gamma rays were based on coincidences with known transitions in A = 112-116 Pd fission partners. The yrast level spectra of both tin nuclei are interpreted using empirical nucleon-nucleon interactions from the 132Sn and 208Pb regions. Results include identification of the (nuf(7/2)h(-1)(11/2))9(+) aligned state in 132Sn and of extensive (nuf(7/2)h(-2)(11/2)), (nuf(7/2)d(-1)(3/2)h(-1)(11/2)) and (nuh(-1)(11/2)x3(-)) multiplets in 131Sn. The previously reported beta(-) decay of an unusual 131In high-spin isomer to levels in 131Sn is also elucidated.     

Study of transients in the propagation of nonlinear waves in some reaction diffusion systems

We study the transient dynamics of single species reaction diffusion systems whose reaction terms f(u) vary nonlinearly near u ≈ 0, specifically as f(u) ≈ u² and f(u) ≈ u³. We consider three cases, calculate their traveling wave fronts and speeds analytically and solve the equations numerically with different initial conditions to study the approach to the asymptotic front shape and speed. Observed time evolution is found to be quite sensitive to initial conditions and to display in some cases nonmonotonic behavior, ascribable to the disparity in time scales between the evolution of the front interior and the front tail.     

Extracting weak phase information from B-->V1V2 decays

We describe a new method for extracting weak, CP-violating &Dmacr;phase information, with no hadronic uncertainties, from an angular analysis of B-->V1V2 decays, where V1 and V2 are vector mesons. The quantity sin (2)(2beta+gamma) can be cleanly obtained from the study of decays such as B(0)(d)(t)-->D*+/-rho(-/+), D(*+/-)a(-/+)(1), D(;) *0K(;) (*0), etc. Similarly, one can use B(0)(s)(t)-->D(*+/-)(s)K*-/+ to extract sin (2)gamma. There are no penguin contributions to these decays. It is possible that sin (2)(2beta+gamma) will be the second function of CP phases, after sin2beta, to be measured at B factories.     

Anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in one-dimensional systems

We establish a connection between anomalous heat conduction and anomalous diffusion in one-dimensional systems. It is shown that if the mean square of the displacement of the particle is =2Dt(alpha)(01) implies anomalous heat conduction with a divergent thermal conductivity (beta>0). More interestingly, subdiffusion (alpha<1) implies anomalous heat conduction with a convergent thermal conductivity (beta<0), and, consequently, the system is a thermal insulator in the thermodynamic limit. Existing numerical data support our results.     

Chiral symmetry, quark mass, and scaling of the overlap fermions

The chiral symmetry relation and scaling of the overlap fermions are studied numerically on the quenched lattices at 3 couplings with about the same physical volume. We find that the generalized Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner relation is satisfied to better than 1% down to the smallest quark mass at m(0)a = 0.006. We also obtain the quark mass from the PCAC relation and the pseudoscalar masses. The renormalization group invariant quark mass is shown to be fairly independent of scale. The pi and rho masses at a fixed m(pi)/m(rho) ratio indicate small O(a(2)) corrections. It is found that the critical slowing down sets in abruptly at a very small quark mass close to those of the physical u and d quarks.     

Sub-Hertz optical frequency comparisons between two trapped 171Yb+ ions

We compare the frequencies of the 6s2S(1/2)(F = 0)-->5d2D(3/2)(F = 2) reference transition in 171Yb+ for two single ions stored in independent traps. The quadrupole moment of the 5d2D(3/2) state is measured to be 9.32(48) x 10(-40) C m2 and from the quadratic Stark shift the relevant scalar and tensor polarizabilities are determined to be alphaS(S(1/2)) - alphaS(D(3/2)) = -6.9(1.4) x 10(-40) J m2/V2 and alphaT(D(3/2)) = -13.6(2.2) x 10(-40) J m2/V2, respectively. In the absence of external perturbations we find a mean frequency difference between the two trapped ions of 0.26(42) Hz, corresponding to a relative difference of 3.8(6.1) x 10(-16). This is comparable to the agreement found in the most accurate comparisons between cesium fountain clocks.     

A new Tolman test of a cosmic distance duality relation at 21 cm

Under certain general conditions in an expanding universe, the luminosity distance (d(L)) and angular diameter distance (d(A)) are connected by the Etherington relation as d(L)=d(A)(1+z)2. The Tolman test suggests the use of objects of known surface brightness, to test this relation. In this Letter, we propose the use of a redshifted 21 cm signal from disk galaxies, where neutral hydrogen (HI) masses are seen to be almost linearly correlated with surface area, to conduct a new Tolman test. We construct simulated catalogs of galaxies, with the observed size-luminosity relation and realistic redshift evolution of HI mass functions, likely to be detected with the planned Square Kilometer Array. We demonstrate that these observations may soon provide the best implementation of the Tolman test to detect any violation of the cosmic distance duality relation.     

Solitary wave solutions of nonlocal sine-Gordon equations

In this paper a nonlocal generalization of the sine-Gordon equation, u(tt)+sin u=( partial differential / partial differential x) integral (- infinity ) (+ infinity )G(x-x('))u(x(') )(x('),t)dx(') is considered. We present a brief review of the applications of such equations and show that involving such a nonlocality can change features of the model. In particular, some solutions of the sine-Gordon model (for example, traveling 2pi-kink solutions) may disappear in the nonlocal model; furthermore, some new classes of solutions such as traveling topological solitons with topological charge greater than 1 may arise. We show that the lack of Lorenz invariancy of the equation under consideration can lead to a phenomenon of discretization of kink velocities. We discussed this phenomenon in detail for the special class of kernels G(xi)= summation operator (j=1) (N)kappa(j)e(-eta(j)mid R:ximid R:), eta(j)>0, j=1,2, em leader,N. We show that, generally speaking, in this case the velocities of kinks (i) are determined unambiguously by a type of kink and value(s) of kernel parameter(s); (ii) are isolated i.e., if c(*) is the velocity of a kink then there are no other kink solutions of the same type with velocity c in (c(*)- varepsilon,c(*)+ varepsilon ) for a certain value of varepsilon. We also used this special class of kernels to construct approximations for analytical and numerical study of the problem in a more general case. Finally, we set forth results of the numerical investigation of the problem with the kernel that is the McDonald function G(xi) approximately K(0)(mid R:ximid R:/lambda) (lambda is a parameter) that have applications in the Josephson junction theory.
