Dynamics of a particle confined in a two-dimensional dilating and deforming domain

2014

Some recent results concerning a particle confined in a one-dimensional box with moving walls are briefly reviewed. By exploiting the same techniques used for the 1D problem, we investigate the behavior of a quantum particle confined in a two-dimensional box (a 2D billiard) whose walls are moving, by recasting the relevant mathematical problem with moving boundaries in the form of a problem with fixed boundaries and time-dependent Hamiltonian. Changes of the shape of the box are shown to be important, as it clearly emerges from the comparison between the "pantographic", case (same shape of the box through all the process) and the case with deformation.

Spherical random-field systems with long-range interactions: general results and application to the Coulomb glass

1993

A classical spherical random-field Hamiltonian with long-range (power-law) interactions is investigated by means of the replica theory. Both ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic interactions are considered. The use of continuous variables instead of Ising variables in the spherical version of the model allows one to calculate the free energy exactly. The existence of an equilibrium phase transition is investigated based on the replica-symmetric solution. The results are applied to the Coulomb-glass model of interacting localized electrons in a disordered solid. This model is shown not to have an equilibrium phase transition for spatial dimensions D 4 the model has a phase transition to an o…

Appearance of Fermion-Condensation Quantum Phase Transition in Fermi Systems

2014

As high-\(T_c\) superconductors are represented primarily by 2D layered structures, in Sect. 5.1 we discuss the superconducting state of a 2D liquid of heavy electrons, and within the framework of Gor’kov microscopic equations construct the Green functions of the FC state. On the other hand, our study can easily be generalized to the 3D case. To show that there is no fundamental difference between the 2D and 3D cases, we derive Green’s functions for the 3D case in Sect. 5.1.1. In Sect. 5.2, we consider the dispersion law and lineshape of single-particle excitations. Section 5.3 is devoted to the behavior of heavy-electron liquid with FC in magnetic field. In Sect. 5.4, we analyze conditions…

Some results on the dynamics and transition probabilities for non self-adjoint hamiltonians

2015

We discuss systematically several possible inequivalent ways to describe the dynamics and the transition probabilities of a quantum system when its hamiltonian is not self-adjoint. In order to simplify the treatment, we mainly restrict our analysis to finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. In particular, we propose some experiments which could discriminate between the various possibilities considered in the paper. An example taken from the literature is discussed in detail.

General analysis of weak decay form factors in heavy to heavy and heavy to light baryon transitions

1992

We present a complete analysis of the heavy to heavy and heavy to light baryon semi-leptonic decays in the heavy quark effective theory within the framework of a Bethe-Salpeter (BS) approach and demonstrate the equivalence of this approach to other work in the field. We present in a compact form the baryon BS amplitudes which incorporate the symmetries manifest in the heavy quark limit and which also show clearly the light quark dynamics. A similar form of the BS amplitude is presented for light baryons. Using the BS amplitudes, the heavy to heavy and heavy to light semi-leptonic baryon decays are considered. As expected there is a dramatic reduction in the number of form factors. An advant…

Excited nucleons with chirally improved fermions

2003

We study positive and negative parity nucleons on the lattice using the chirally improved lattice Dirac operator. Our analysis is based on a set of three operators chi_i with the nucleon quantum numbers but in different representations of the chiral group and with different diquark content. We use a variational method to separate ground state and excited states and determine the mixing coefficients for the optimal nucleon operators in terms of the chi_i. We clearly identify the negative parity resonances N(1535) and N(1650) and their masses agree well with experimental data. The mass of the observed excited positive parity state is too high to be interpreted as the Roper state. Our results …

Consistent Treatment of Axions in the Weak Chiral Lagrangian.

2021

We present a consistent implementation of weak decays involving an axion or axion-like particle in the context of an effective chiral Lagrangian. We argue that previous treatments of such processes have used an incorrect representation of the flavor-changing quark currents in the chiral theory. As an application, we derive model-independent results for the decays $K^-\to\pi^- a$ and $\pi^-\to e^-\bar\nu_e a$ at leading order in the chiral expansion and for arbitrary axion couplings and mass. In particular, we find that the $K^-\to\pi^- a$ branching ratio is almost 40 times larger than previously estimated.

Towards a Unified Description of the Baryon Spectrum and the Baryon-Baryon Interaction within a Potential Model Scheme

1995

We study the low energy part of the nucleon and ∆ spectra by solving the Schrodinger equation for the three-quark system in the hyperspherical harmonic approach. The quark-quark hamiltonian considered includes, besides the usual one-gluon exchange, pion and sigma exchanges generated by the chiral symmetry breaking This quark-quark potential reproduces, in a Resonating Group Method calculation, the nucleon-nucleon scattering phase shifts and the deuteron properties. The baryonic spectrum obtained is quite reasonable and the resulting wave function is consistent with the ansatz used in the two baryon system.

Understanding the Low Energy Hadron Spectrum in a Chiral Quark Cluster Model

1999

The low energy N and Δ spectra are studied by means of a chiral quark cluster model. We solve the Schrodinger equation in the hyperspherical harmonic approach. The interacting potential includes Goldstone boson exchanges besides the usual one-gluon exchange. The predicted baryonic spectrum is quite reasonable. However, if consistency with the two-baryon sector is required, the observed inversion of the positive and negative parity excitations of the nucleon cannot be obtained. Alternative solutions are discussed.
