Theory of impurity-concentration dependence of freezing temperatures of metallic spin glasses
The authors present a theory of the freezing temperature Tg of metallic spin glasses. Length scales associated with intrinsic sd scattering and finite temperature play essential roles. They describe an approach in which ... -

Influence of the envelope function on the ground-state energy of quasi-two-dimensional Wigner solids
At sufficiently low density, quasi-two-dimensional electron systems in their ground state form Wigner solids. In previous studies of the ground-state energy of such systems (in the absence of an applied magnetic field), ... -
Spin correlations in the low-density electron system
The authors have calculated the spin susceptibility x(q,) within a microscopic model over the full range of densities of the electron liquid in the paramagnetic state. Electron-electron interactions are described by static ... -
Heat capacity of gadolinium near the Curie temperature
High-resolution AC calorimetric data near the Curie point are reported for several single crystals of gadolinium. The critical temperature and the shape of the heat-capacity curve near Tc both depend on the sample-preparation ... -
Motion of a point dipole in an infinite hole through a superconductor
The authors consider the system of a magnetic point dipole placed in an infinite square hole through a superconductor. Using the method of images they obtain the potential and the field distribution in the hollow. Using ... -

Photoacoustic investigation of the temperature and magnetic-field dependence of the specific-heat capacity and thermal conductivity near the Curie point of gadolinium
The photoacoustic technique was used as a simple but accurate tool to simultaneously determine the specific-heat capacity C and thermal conductivity K of gadolinium in the neighborhood of the Curie point. One polycrystalline ... -
Universal correction to scaling amplitude ratios for inhomogeneous ferromagnets with continuous symmetry
Critical exponents and amplitude ratios for corrections to the scaling limit are calculated for a randomly diluted, weakly inhomogeneous O(m) Heisenberg model in an expansion in =4-d. Calculations for the exponents and ... -
Negative electron-electron drag between narrow quantum Hall channels
Momentum transfer due to Coulomb interaction between two parallel, two-dimensional, narrow, and spatially separated layers, when a current Idrive is driven through one layer, is studied in the presence of a perpendicular ... -
Anharmonicity and cross section for absorption of radiation by water dimer
We calculate the absorption cross section of water dimer molecules in thermal equilibrium at temperatures typical of the lower atmosphere using quantum mechanical coupled nonlinear equations of motion. Empirical Morse-oscillator ... -
Contribution of water vapor dimers to clear sky absorption of solar radiation
Using previously derived-values of the water vapor dimer spectral absorption cross section we calculate the water vapor dimer contribution to the clear sky absorption of solar radiation. We consider the water dimer ... -
Density dependence of critical magnetic fields at the metal-insulator bifurcation in two dimensions
The density dependence of the critical in-plane magnetic field Bc at the bifurcation of the resistivity of two-dimensional electron systems with low levels of disorder is determined using the spin-polarization dependence ... -
Two-component scaling near the metal-insulator bifurcation in two dimensions
We consider a two-component scaling picture for the resistivity of two-dimensional (2D) weakly disordered interacting electron systems at low temperature with the aim of describing both the vicinity of the bifurcation and ... -
Temperature dependent resistivity in the low-resistance region for diffusive transport in two dimensions
The interpretation of the metal-insulator transition phenomena in disordered two-dimensional electron systems in terms of density-dependent scaling variables suggests the existence of a quantum critical point at some ... -
Quantum critical behavior in the insulating region of the two-dimensional metal-insulator transition
We show that the quantum critical point associated with the metal-insulator transition phenomenon in two dimensions controls an extended critical region encompassing not only the usual quantum critical sector but also a ...
