Random Bond Effect in the Quantum Spin System (Tl$_{1-x}$K$_{x}$)CuCl$_3$

The effect of exchange bond randomness on the ground state and the field-induced magnetic ordering was investigated through magnetization measurements in the spin-1/2 mixed quantum spin system (Tl$_{1-x}$K$_{x}$)CuCl$_3$ for $x<0.36$. Both parent compounds TlCuCl$_3$ and KCuCl$_3$ are coupled spin dimer systems, which have the singlet ground state with excitation gaps $Δ/k_{\rm B}=7.7$ K and 31 K, respectively. Due to bond randomness, the singlet ground state turns into the magnetic state with finite susceptibility, nevertheless, the excitation gap remains. Field-induced magnetic ordering, which can be described by the Bose condensation of excited triplets, magnons, was observed as in the parent systems. The phase transition temperature is suppressed by the bond randomness. This behavior may be attributed to the localization effect.

Magnetic Phase Transition and Magnetization Plateau in Cs$_2$CuBr$_4$

The crystal structure of Cs$_2$CuBr$_4$ is the same as that of Cs$_2$CuCl$_4$, which has been characterized as a spin-1/2 quasi-two-dimensional frustrated system. The magnetic properties of Cs$_2$CuBr$_4$ were investigated by magnetization and specific heat measurements. The phase transition at zero magnetic field was detected at $T_{\rm N}=1.4$ K. It was observed that the magnetization curve has a plateau at about one-third of the saturation magnetization for magnetic field $H$ parallel to the $b$- and $c$-axes, while no plateau was observed for $H\parallel a$. The field-induced phase transition to the plateau state appears to be of the first order. The mechanism leading to the magnetization plateau is discussed.

Magnetic Excitations of the Spin Gap System TlCuCl$_3$

TlCuCl$_3$ has a singlet ground state with the excitation gap $Δ=0.65$ meV. The magnetic excitations in TlCuCl$_3$ have been investigated by means of neutron inelastic scattering experiments. The constant-$\it{\pmb Q}$ energy scan profiles were collected in the $a^*-c^*$ plane. A well-defined single magnetic excitation mode was observed. The dispersion relations along four different directions were determined. The lowest excitation occurs at ${\it{\pmb Q}}=(h, 0, l)$ with integer $h$ and odd $l$, as observed in KCuCl$_3$. A cluster series expansion up to the sixth order was applied to analyze the dispersion relations, and the individual exchange interactions were evaluated. It was demonstrated that TlCuCl$_3$ is a strongly coupled spin-dimer system.

Novel Features of the Newly Discovered Field-Induced Superconducting Phase of lambda-BETS2FeCl4

We examine magnetic field dependent properties associated with the newly discovered field-induced superconducting state (FISC) in lambda-BETS2FeCl4. These include the metal-to-antiferromagnetic insulator transition, the critical field of the FISC state in tilted magnetic fields, and the low-pressure, magnetic field dependence of the insulating and superconducting phases.

DC-SQUID Sensitivity for Readout of Entangled State Quantum Bits

We propose a scheme for entangled state measurement at flux qubits (quantum bits) depending on the sensitivity measurement of a DC-SQUID (Superconducting QUantum Interference Device). The DC-SQUID is used as a flux qubit readout device. The switching current distribution of a DC-SQUID is sufficiently narrow to distinguish between two ground states of three Josephson junction qubits with a large mutual inductance between a qubit and the DC-SQUID. But discrimination between two ground states becomes difficult with the smaller mutual inductance that is preferable as regards of qubit coherence. However, we can employ averaging to increase the effective sensitivity. And we found that Bell-pair measurement can be performed with flux qubits to prove the existence of an entangled state over two qubits.

Field-Induced Two-Step Phase Transitions in the Singlet Ground State Triangular Antiferromagnet CsFeBr$_3$

The ground state of the stacked triangular antiferromagnet CsFeBr$_3$ is a spin singlet due to the large single ion anisotropy $D(S^z)^2$. The field-induced magnetic ordering in this compound was investigated by the magnetic susceptibility, the magnetization process and specific heat measurements for an external field parallel to the $c$-axis. Unexpectedly, two phase transitions were observed in the magnetic field $H$ higher than 3 T. The phase diagram for temperature versus magnetic field was obtained. The mechanism leading to the successive phase transitions is discussed.

Bonding Nature in MgB2

The accurate charge density of MgB2 was observed at room temperature(R.T.) and 15K by the MEM(Maximum Entropy Method)/Rietveld analysis using synchrotron radiation powder data. The obtained charge density clearly revealed the covalent bonding feature of boron forming the 2D honeycomb network in the basal plane, on the other hand, Mg is found to be in divalent state. A subtle but clear charge concentration was found on boron 2D sheets at 15K, which should be relating to superconductivity.

Singlet Ground State and Magnetization Plateaus in Ba$_3$Mn$_2$O$_8$

Magnetic susceptibility and the magnetization process have been measured in \green polycrystal. In this compound, the magnetic manganese ion exists as Mn$^{5+}$ in a tetrahedral environment, and thus the magnetic interaction can be described by an S=1 Heisenberg model. The ground state was found to be a spin singlet with an excitation gap $Δ/k_{\rm B}=11.2$ K. Magnetization plateaus were observed at zero and at half of the saturation magnetization. These results indicate that the present system can be represented by a coupled antiferromagnetic dimer model.

Superconductivity in an organic insulator at very high magnetic fields

We investigate by electrical transport the field-induced superconducting state (FISC) in the organic conductor $λ$-(BETS)$_2$FeCl$_4$. Below 4 K, antiferromagnetic-insulator, metallic, and eventually superconducting (FISC) ground states are observed with increasing in-plane magnetic field. The FISC state survives between 18 and 41 T, and can be interpreted in terms of the Jaccarino-Peter effect, where the external magnetic field {\em compensates} the exchange field of aligned Fe$^{3+}$ ions. We further argue that the Fe$^{3+}$ moments are essential to stabilize the resulting singlet, two-dimensional superconducting state

CsMn(Br_xI_{1-x})_3: Crossover from an XY to an Ising Chiral Antiferromagnet

We report on high-resolution specific-heat and magnetocaloric-effect measurements of the triangular-lattice antiferromagnets CsMn(Br_xI_{1-x})_3 with different x. The evolution of the magnetic phase diagrams from the easy-axis system for x = 0 to the easy-plane system for x = 1 was studied in detail. The specific-heat critical exponent alpha of the almost isotropic x = 0.19 system agrees with the value predicted for a chiral Heisenberg scenario. In an applied magnetic field (B = 6 T) a crossover to a weak first-order transition is detected.

Observation of Field-Induced Transverse Néel Ordering in the Spin Gap System TlCuCl$_3$

Neutron elastic scattering experiments have been performed on the spin gap system TlCuCl$_3$ in magnetic fields parallel to the $b$-axis. The magnetic Bragg peaks which indicate the field-induced Néel ordering were observed for magnetic field higher than the gap field $H_{\rm g}\approx 5.5$ T at $Q=(h, 0, l)$ with odd $l$ in the $a^*-c^*$ plane. The spin structure in the ordered phase was determined. The temperature and field dependence of the Bragg peak intensities and the phase boundary obtained were discussed in connection with a recent theory which describes the field-induced Néel ordering as a Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons.

Specific Heat Study of the Field-Induced Magnetic Ordering in the Spin Gap System TlCuCl$_3$

Specific heat measurements have been performed in the coupled dimer system TlCuCl$_3$, which has a singlet ground state with the excitation gap $Δ\simeq 7.5$K. The cusplike anomaly indicative of the 3D magnetic ordering was clearly observed in magnetic fields higher than the critical field $H_c$ corresponding to the gap $Δ$. The phase boundary determined by the present specific heat measurements coincides with that determined by previous magnetization measurements. The phase boundary can be described by the power law $[ H_{\rm c}(T)-H_{\rm g} ] \propto T^ϕ$ with $ϕ=2.1(1)$. This result supports the magnon Bose condensation picture for the field-induced magnetic ordering in TlCuCl$_3$ [Nikuni {\it et al}., Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 84} (2000) 5868].

Susceptibility, Magnetization Process and ESR Studies on the Helical Spin System RbCuCl$_{3}$

The static and dynamic magnetic properties of an $S=1/2$ stacked triangular antiferromagnet RbCuCl$_{3}$ with a helical spin structure due to lattice distortion were investigated by susceptibility, high-field magnetization process and ESR measurements. The susceptibilities were analyzed by high-temperature expansion approximation in terms of ferromagnetic intrachain coupling and the antiferromagnetic interchain coupling. The magnetization saturates at $H_{\rm s}\approx 66.8$ T at 1.5 K, the value of which is twice that of CsCuCl$_3$. A small magnetization jump indicative of a phase transition was observed at $H_{\rm c}=21.2$ T $\approx (1/3)H_{\rm s}$ for $H{\perp}c$. ESR modes observed for $H\parallel c$ are well described by the calculation based on the helical spin structure. From the present measurements, the ferromagnetic intrachain and two kinds of antiferromagnetic interchain exchange interactions, and the planar anisotropy energy were determined as $J_0/k_{\rm B}=25.7$ K, $J_1/k_{\rm B}=-10.6$ K, $J_1'/k_{\rm B}=-17.4$ K, and $ΔJ_0/k_{\rm B}=-0.45$ K, respectively.

Oblique triangular antiferromagnetic phase in CsCu$_{1-x}$Co$_x$Cl$_3$

The spin-1/2 stacked triangular antiferromagnet CsCu$_{1-x}$Co$_x$Cl$_3$ with $0.015<x<0.032$ undergoes two phase transitions at zero field. The low-temperature phase is produced by the small amount of Co$^{2+}$ doping. In order to investigate the magnetic structures of the two ordered phases, the neutron elastic scattering experiments have been carried out for the sample with $x\approx 0.03$. It is found that the intermediate phase is identical to the ordered phase of CsCuCl$_3$, and that the low-temperature phase is an oblique triangular antiferromagnetic phase in which the spins form a triangular structure in a plane tilted from the basal plane. The tilting angle which is 42$^{\circ}$ at $T=1.6$ K decreases with increasing temperature, and becomes zero at $T_{\rm N2} =7.2$ K. An off-diagonal exchange term is proposed as the origin of the oblique phase.

Automatic Computation of Cross Sections in HEP

For the study of reactions in High Energy Physics (HEP) automatic computation systems have been developed and are widely used nowadays. GRACE is one of such systems and it has achieved much success in analyzing experimental data. Since we deal with the cross section whose value can be given by calculating hundreds of Feynman diagrams, we manage the large scale calculation, so that effective symbolic manipulation, the treat of singularity in the numerical integration are required. The talk will describe the software design of GRACE system and computational techniques in the GRACE.

Magnetic Excitations in the Spin Gap System TlCuCl$_3$

Single-crystal neutron inelastic scattering was performed in order to investigate the magnetic excitations in the spin gap system TlCuCl$_3$. The constant-${\bf Q}$ energy scan profiles were collected in the $a^*-c^*$ plane. Three excitations are observed for $E{\leq}15$ meV. One of the excitations is identified to be magnetic excitation. The lowest magnetic excitation with $E\sim 0.5$ meV occurs at ${\bf Q}=(1, 0, 1)$, as observed in KCuCl$_3$. The dispersion relation of the magnetic excitation can be fitted to the dispersion formula derived from the weakly coupled dimer model. The intradimer interaction is evaluated as $J=5.23$ meV, which coincides with the value estimated from the susceptibility data. However, one of the interdimer interactions obtained is so large that the weakly coupled dimer model is broken down.

Realization of Bose-Einstein condensation of dilute magnons in TlCuCl$_3$

The recent observation [Oosawa et al. J. Phys. : Condens. Matter {\bf 11}, 265 (1999)] of the field-induced Néel ordering in a spin-gap magnetic compound TlCuCl$_3$ is interpreted as a Bose-Einstein Condensation of magnons. A mean-field calculation based on this picture is shown to describe well the temperature dependence of the magnetization. The present system opens a new area for studying Bose-Einstein condensation of thermodynamically large number of particles in a grand-canonical ensemble.

Spin and spin-spin correlations in chargino pair production at future linear e+e- colliders

A possibility to measure the spin and spin-spin correlations of a chargino pair is investigated in the process electron positron -> chargino_1 anti-chargino_1 -> (neutralino_1 quark anti-quark) (neutralino_1 quark anti-quark) at future linear-collider energies. The total and the differential cross sections are calculated by the GRACE system which allows for the full spin correlation. Experimental sensitivity of the measurements are examined by assuming the limited detector resolution, the initial state radiation and the beam-beam effect (beamstrahlung). It is found that generally the spin-spin correlation can only be measured with a lower sensitivity than the chargino spin itself. The dependence of the correlation measurements on the relevant SUSY parameters can be seen for a light sneutrino case, but the situation becomes worse for a heavier sneutrino.
