Table of Contents (Print) NEWSPAPER 88 Electric field strength around a field-emitting carbon nanotube measured by electron holography. As electrons in an imaging beam are scattered by the nanotube, they acquire a phase shift due to the varying potential. A measurement of this shift therefore gives the electric potential, and the gradient of the phase shift (depicted in the image) shows the field strength. See article 056804.

Series Analysis of Randomly Diluted Nonlinear Networks With Negative Nonlinearity Exponent Abstract The behavior of randomly diluted networks of nonlinear resistors, for each of which the voltage-current relationship is |V|=r|I|α, where α is negative, is studied using low-concentration series expansions on d-dimensional hypercubic lattices. The average nonlinear resistance ⟨R⟩ between a pair of points on the same cluster, a distance r apart, scales as rζ(α)/ν, where ν is the correlation-length exponent for percolation, and we have estimated ζ(α) in the range −1≤α≤0 for 1≤d≤6. ζ(α) is discontinuous at α=0 but, for α<0, ζ(α) is shown to vary continuously from ζmax, which describes the scaling of the maximal self-avoiding-walk length (for α→0−), to ζBB, which describes the scaling of the backbone (at α=−1).

Phase Diagrams for the Randomly Diluted Resistor Network and XY Model Abstract The randomly diluted resistor network and XY model at low temperature T are studied near the d-dimensional percolation threshold using the ɛ expansion, where ɛ=6-d. The series expansion of the inverse susceptibility in powers of T for the XY model is identical to that of the appropriate resistive −1 inverse susceptibility in powers of σ0 , where σ0 is the conductance of a bond. However, the temperature-dependent critical concentration pc(T) for the XY model has no analog in the resistor network, where pc clearly does not depend on σ0. This distinction arises from a rather subtle difference between the Fourier component representation of the Gaussian model for the resistor network and that of the bounded potential energy associated with the XY model. We introduce a family of models which provides a smooth interpolation between these two models and show that the phase boundary for the XY model satisfies certain simple self-consistency checks involving other susceptibilities.

    Planning and Budgeting Committee (PBC) Steering Advisory Committee on Quantum Science and Technology Final Report Presented to the Planning and Budgeting Committee General Assembly February 2018 1 | PAGE Preamble, Prof. Uri Sivan, Committee Chairman My heartfelt thanks to the committee members for their time and efforts invested in constructing the National Academic Quantum Science and Technology (QST) Program. Their expertise and the depth and scope of discussions have brought to the results presented below. My thanks to the Planning and Budgeting Committee (PBC) members, particularly to the Chairwomen, Prof. Zilbershats, for her continuous trust in the committee and its objective. Special thanks to the PBC representatives accompanying the Committee: Dr. Liat Maoz, Ms. Nina Ostrozhko and Mr. Amir Gat for their extraordinary devotion and contributions throughout. “The second quantum revolution”, which drove the PBC to declare QST as a priority field in its five- years plan, is underway. Testament to this are the expansive national and multinational programs announced by most developed countries and extensive commercial investments. The proposed program aims to lay down the academic foundation necessary for Israel to join this revolution. It leans upon the existing excellence and provides a roadmap of the steps necessary to significantly expand the scope of activity, improve research capacities and train a skilled workforce to set the revolution in motion in academia, industry and security sector. An expansive academic program is critical to position Israel at the forefront of global research and development, but realizing its national potential also demands partnering with additional entities experienced in laying down the infrastructure necessary to develop the industry and security needs.

O. Box 1100, FIN-02150 HUT, Espoo, Finland Abstract Renormalization group and Coulomb gas mappings are used to derive theoretical predictions for the corrections to the exactly known asymptotic fractal masses of the hull, external perimeter, singly connected bonds and total mass of the Fortuin- Kasteleyn clusters for two-dimensional q-state Potts models at criticality. For q = 4 these include exact logarithmic (as well as log log) corrections. arXiv:cond-mat/0206367v2 [cond-mat.stat-mech] 21 Jun 2002 1. INTRODUCTION q-state Potts models, with interaction Jδ (σ = 1, 2, ..., q) for the nearest neighbor − σiσj i,j (nn) sites i, j, have played an important role in condensed matter physics1. Here we study geometrical aspects of the critical Potts clusters, in two dimensions. For an arbitrary con- figuration of Potts states, one creates bonds between neighboring sites which have the same 1 2 Fractal Dimensions for Critical Potts Clusters state, σ = σ , with a probability p = 1 exp ( J/kT ). No bonds are created between sites i j − − with σi = σj. Here we study the fractal geometry at Tc of the clusters, made of sites con- 6 2 nected by bonds . Specifically, we measure the fractal dimensions DM , DH , DEP , and DSC describing the scaling of the cluster’s mass, hull, external accessible perimeter3 and singly connected bonds4, respectively, with its radius of gyration R.

  • Low Dimensional Quantum Magnetism in the Copper Oxides
    Le NO9900025 Low Dimensional Quantum Magnetism in the Copper Oxides Ora Entin-Wohlman and Amnon Aharony School of Physics and Astronomy, Tel Aviv University, Israel The magnetism of lamellar copper oxides, which are the parent mate- rials of high temperature superconductors, is dominated by the spin 1/2 Cu+2 ions on the CuC>2 planes. These planes have Cu ions on the vertices and O ions on the bonds of a square lattice, and their magnetic behavior at high temperature is described well by the planar quantum Heisenberg an- tiferromagnetic (AFM) model, which has long range order only at T=0. In fact they have three dimensional AFM order due to weak spin anisotropies and interplane couplings. Starting from a Hubbard model with spin orbit and Coulomb exchange couplings, we derive an effective magnetic Hamil- tonian which contains these anisotropies and couplings. An analysis of the zero point quantum spin wave energies generates additional four-fold sym- metry terms and delicate higher order interplane interactions, which help select a ground state among states which would otherwise be degenerate due to frustration. Having generated the full effective magnetic Hamiltonian, the results are used to identify the magnetic structures and competitions among them, leading to phase diagrams in parameter space. These are also used to discuss the critical phenomena which occur near various possible transitions. Specific attention will be devoted to the structures of tetrago- nal Sr2CuO2Cl2, Nd2CuC>4 and P^CuO^ In the former, frustration among layers is lifted by pseudodipolar interactions and by quantum zero point en- ergies. In the latter two, the rare earth also participates in the magnetism.
