We investigate the cooperative effects on optical forces in a system of N two level atoms occupying a volume of dimensions to within $λ^3$, where lambda is radiation wavelength and is driven by a coherent radiation field with a spatial profile like Laguerre-Gaussian beam or ideal Bessel beam.We show a dramatic enhancement on optical forces as well as the angular momentum imparted to the atom by a factor of $N ^2$.
The question of spin-charge separation in two-dimensional lattices has been addressed by numerical simulations of the motion of one hole in a half-filled band. The calculations have been performed on finite clusters with Hubbard and t-J models. By comparing the time evolution of spin and charge polarisation currents in one and two dimensions, evidence in favor of spin-charge separation in two dimensions is presented. In contrast with this, spin-charge separation is absent in a highly doped, metallic, system.
