Full counting statistics in disordered graphene at Dirac point: From ballistics to diffusion

The full counting statistics of the charge transport through an undoped graphene sheet in the presence of smooth disorder is studied. At the Dirac point both in clean and diffusive limits, transport properties of a graphene sample are described by the universal Dorokhov distribution of transmission probabilities. In the crossover regime, deviations from universality occur which can be studied analytically both on ballistic and diffusive sides. In the ballistic regime, we use a diagrammatic technique with matrix Green functions. For a diffusive system, the sigma model is applied. Our results are in good agreement with recent numerical simulations of electron transport in disordered graphene.

Charge transport in graphene with resonant scatterers

The full counting statistics for the charge transport through an undoped graphene sheet in the presence of strong potential impurities is studied. Treating the scattering off the impurity in the s-wave approximation, we calculate the impurity correction to the cumulant generating function. This correction is universal provided the impurity strength is tuned to a resonant value. In particular, the conductance of the sample acquires a correction of 16e^2/(pi^2 h) per resonant impurity.

Ballistic transport in disordered graphene

An analytic theory of electron transport in disordered graphene in a ballistic geometry is developed. We consider a sample of a large width W and analyze the evolution of the conductance, the shot noise, and the full statistics of the charge transfer with increasing length L, both at the Dirac point and at a finite gate voltage. The transfer matrix approach combined with the disorder perturbation theory and the renormalization group is used. We also discuss the crossover to the diffusive regime and construct a ``phase diagram'' of various transport regimes in graphene.

Unitarity constraints on MSSM trilinear couplings

For MSSM phenomenology, soft SUSY breaking dimension-three operators are important, in particular the couplings between Higgs bosons and squarks. In scattering processes, perturbative unitarity is violated at modest center-of-mass energy if these couplings are much larger than the masses of the scalar particles involved. Assuming perturbative unitarity, constraints on the trilinear couplings can be determined using a computer program that we have developed.
