Creating unique polymeric particles
An acoustic surface plasmon, a new type of electron wave that exists on metal surfaces, has been proven to exist by Bogdan Diaconescu and Karsten Pohl, Univ. of New Hampshire, Durham. The acoustic plasmon can be excited with any wavelength. These plasmons have been predicted on theoretical grounds, and last year, a team concluded that they did not exist. This work proves their existence. Becaus...
متن کاملKinks and Particles in Non-integrable Quantum Field Theories
In this talk we discuss an elementary derivation of the semi-classical spectrum of neutral particles in two field theories with kink excitations. We also show that, in the non-integrable cases, each vacuum state cannot generically support more than two stable particles, since all other neutral exitations are resonances, which will eventually decay.
متن کاملOn Tachyon Kinks from the Dbi Action
We consider solitonic solutions of the DBI tachyon effective action for a non-BPS brane in the presence of an electric field. We find that for a constant electric field Ẽ ≤ 1, regular solitons compactified on a circle admit a singular and decompactified limit corresponding to Sen’s proposal provided the tachyon potential satisfies some restrictions. On the other hand for the critical electric f...
متن کاملSingular tachyon kinks from regular profiles
We demonstrate how Sen’s singular kink solution of the Born-Infeld tachyon action can be constructed by taking the appropriate limit of initially regular profiles. It is shown that the order in which different limits are taken plays an important rôle in determining whether or not such a solution is obtained for a wide class of potentials. Indeed, by introducing a small parameter into the action...
متن کاملKinks in Finite Volume
A (1+1)-dimensional quantum field theory with a degenerate vacuum (in infinite volume) can contain particles, known as kinks, which interpolate between different vacua and have nontrivial restrictions on their multi-particle Hilbert space. Assuming such a theory to be integrable, we show how to calculate the multi-kink energy levels in finite volume given its factorizable S-matrix. In massive t...
