Anisotropic Relaxation Time for Solids with Ellipsoidal Fermi SurfacesFuchser, Troy Denrich 05 1900 (has links)
Many solids have Fermi surfaces which are approximated as ellipsoids. A comprehensive solution for the magnetoconductivity of an ellipsoid is obtained which proves the
existence of a relaxation time tensor which can be anisotropic and which is a function of energy only.

Etude des performances du télescope gamma Fermi à basse énergie et impact sur la science / Optimisation of FERMI space telescope performencesDesgardin, Thibaut 25 November 2015 (has links)
Le satellite Fermi, lancé en juin 2008 par la NASA, observe le ciel dans le domaine des hautes énergies. Son instrument principal: le Large Area Telescope (LAT), récolte des données à partir de ~20 MeV jusqu'à plus de 300 GeV. Une amélioration majeure de ses algorithmes à permis récemment la mise à disposition d'un nouveau jeu de données, Pass 8. Pass 8 jette un nouvel éclairage sur le domaine méconnu de la basse énergie (E<100 MeV). En effet à basse énergie, la résolution en énergie et la résolution angulaire du LAT rendent l'analyse de données ardue.Au cours de ce travail de thèse, nous avons proposé une nouvelle paramétrisation capable de décrire la réponse en énergie du LAT sur 6 ordres de grandeur.Fort de ce travail technique et des améliorations apportées par Pass 8, nous nous sommes ensuite attelés à l'analyse des données à basse énergie. Pour cela nous avons extrapolé les modèles d'émission diffuse produits par la collaboration et nous les avons ajustés aux données. Nous avons également étudié 39 sources parmi les plus brillantes du ciel gamma. Les résultats de cette analyse de sources sont présentés dans cette thèse avec un accent particulier mis sur deux des plus brillantes sources du ciel gamma: le pulsar Vela et le pulsar du Crabe ainsi que sa nébuleuse. / Launched in June 2008 by NASA, the Fermi satellite observes the gamma-ray sky. Its main instrument, the LAT, harvests data from ~20 MeV to 300 GeV and beyond.Lately, a major upgrade of the LAT algorithms allowed the release of a reprocessed data set called Pass 8. Pass 8 sheds a new light on the low energy (E<100 MeV) regime where data analysis is difficult due to degraded angular and energy resolution.During this Phd a new parameterization was found for the energy dispersion which allowed an accurate modelisation of the LAT energy response on 6 orders of magnitude.This work, together with other Pass 8 improvements, allows us to consider low energy analysis. To do so, we extrapolated the existing diffuse models to low energy and fitted them to data together with 39 of the brightest low energy gamma-ray sources. The results of this analysis are presented in this manuscript with a particular enphasis on the Vela pulsar and the Crab pulsar plus nebula.

Novel Metallic States at Low Temperatures in Strongly Correlated SystemsWu, Wenlong 02 September 2010 (has links)
This thesis describes experiments carried out on two novel strongly correlated electron
systems. The first, FeCrAs, is a new material that has not been studied before, while the
second, Sr3Ru2O7, has been previously shown to have a very novel so-called ‘nematic’
phase around the metamagnetic quantum critical end point (QCEP).
For these studies, a new variation on an established method for measuring the field
dependence of susceptibility in a BeCu clamp cell has been developed, and is described,
as is a relaxation heat capacity cell that works from 4 K down to 300 mK.
A method of growing stoichiometric crystals of the hexagonal iron-pnictide FeCrAs
has been developed, and transport and thermodynamic measurements carried out. The
in-plane resistivity shows an unusual “non-metallic” dependence on temperature T, rising
continuously with decreasing T from ∼800 K to below 100 mK. The c-axis resistivity is
similar, except for a sharp drop upon entry into an antiferromagnetic state at T_N ∼ 125 K.
Below 10 K the resistivity follows a non-Fermi-liquid power law, ρ(T) = ρ_0 − AT^x with
x < 1, while the specific heat shows Fermi liquid behaviour with a large Sommerfeld
coefficient, γ ∼ 30 mJ/molK^2. The high temperature properties are reminiscent of those
of the parent compounds of the new layered iron-pnictide superconductors, however the
T → 0 K properties suggest a new class of non-Fermi liquid.
The metamagnetic critical end point temperature T^∗ in Sr3Ru2O7 as a function of
hydrostatic pressure with H//ab has been studied using the ac susceptibility. It is found that T^∗ falls monotonically with increasing pressure, going to zero at Pc = 14±0.3 kbar.
One sign of the nematic phase observed in the field-angle tuning, i.e. T^∗ rises as the
novel phase emerges, has not been seen in our study. However, we see a slope change
in T^∗ vs P at ∼12.8 kbar, and a shoulder at the upper field side of the peak in χ′ from
∼12.8 kbar to ∼16.7 kbar. These new features indicate that some new physics sets in
near the pressure-tuned QCEP.

Novel itinerant transverse spin wavesFeldmann, John January 2009 (has links)
Thesis advisor: Kevin S. Bedell / In 1956, Lev Davidovich Landau put forth his theory on systems of interacting fermions, or fermi liquids. A year later, Viktor Pavlovich Silin described spin waves that such a system of fermions would support. The treatment of the contribution of the molecular field to the spin wave dispersion was a novel aspect of these spin waves. Silin predicted that there would exist a hierarchy of spin waves in a fermi liquid, one for each component of the spherical harmonic expansion of the fermi surface. In 1968, Anthony J. Leggett and Michael J. Rice derived from fermi liquid theory how the behavior of the spin diffusion coefficient of a fermi liquid could be directly experimentally observable via the spin echo effect. Their prediction, that the diffusion coefficient of a fermi liquid would not decay exponentially with temperature, but rather would have a maximum at some non-zero temperature, was a direct consequence of the fermi liquid molecular field and spin wave phenomena, and this was corroborated by experiment in 1971 by Corruccini, et al. A parallel advancement in the theory of fermi liquid spin waves came with the extension of the theory to describe weak ferromagnetic metals. In 1959, Alexei Abrikosov and I. E. Dzyaloshiski put forth a theoretical description of a ferromagnetic fermi liquid. In 2001, Kevin Bedell and Krastan Blagoev showed that a non-trivial contribution to the dispersion of the ferromagnetic current spin wave arises from the necessary consideration of higher harmonic moments in the distortion of the fermi surface from its ground state. In the chapters to follow, the author presents new results for transverse spin waves in a fermi liquid, which arise from a novel ground state of a fermi liquid--one in which an l=1 harmonic distortion exists in the ground state polarization. It is shown that such an instability can lead to spin waves with dispersions that are characterized by a linear dependence on the wave number at long wavelengths, or can lead to spin waves that are characterized by a square root dependence on the wave number at long wavelength. The author also presents new results for spin waves in a fermi liquid that has a spin density wave in its ground state. A spin density wave is characterized by a spiral magnetization in the ground state, and is observed to occur in materials such as MnSi. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2009. / Submitted to: Boston College.

The Bose/Fermi oscillators in a new supersymmetric representation21 September 2011 (has links)
This work deals with the application of supermathematics to supersymmetrical problems arising in physics. Some recent developments are presented in detail. A reduction scheme for general supermanifolds to vector bundles is presented, which significantly simplifies their mathematical treatment in a physical context. Moreover, some applications of this new approach are worked out, such as the Fermi oscillator.
