1 Gondolo, PaoloAnnual modulation of dark matter in the presence of streamsIn addition to a smooth component of weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter in galaxies, there may be streams of material; the effects of WIMP streams on direct detection experiments is examined in this paper. The contribution to the count rate due to the stream cuts off at some char...WIMP streams; Weakly interacting massive particles; Cutoff energy; Halo models; Sagittarius dwarf galaxy; Recoil energy; Sgr stream2006-08
2 Liu, FengInfluence of quantum size effects on Pb island growth and diffusion barrier oscillationsQuantum size effects are successfully exploited in manipulating the growth of (111) oriented Pb islands on Si(111) substrate with a scanning tunneling microscope. The growth dynamics and morphology displayed can be well controlled through the quantum size effects defined by the island thicknesses ...Quantum size effects; QSE; Pb island; Diffusion barrier oscillations2006-08
3 Wu, Yong-ShiNumerical study of the three-dimensional random-field Ising model at zero and positive temperatureIn this paper the three-dimensional random-field Ising model is studied at both zero temperature and positive temperature. Critical exponents are extracted at zero temperature by finite size scaling analysis of large discontinuities in the bond energy. The heat capacity exponent α is found to be n...Bond energies; Ground states2006-08
4 Mishchenko, EugeneOptical conductivity of a two-dimensional electron liquid with spin-orbit interactionThe interplay of electron-electron interactions and spin-orbit coupling leads to a new contribution to the homogeneous optical conductivity of the electron liquid. The latter is known to be insensitive to many-body effects for a conventional electron system with parabolic dispersion. The parabolic...Optical conductivity; Electron liquid; Spin-orbit coupling2006-08
5 Harrison, Reid R.;Normann, Richard A.Preliminary study of thermal impact of a microelectrode array implanted in the brainOne requirement of a chronically implantable, wireless neural interface device is the integration of electronic circuitry with the microelectrode array. Since the electronic IC dissipates a certain amount of power, it will affect the temperature in the tissues surrounding the implant site. In this ...Microelectrode arrays; Neural recording; Utah Electrode Array; Thermal impact2006-08
6 Wu, Yong-ShiTopological quantization of the spin Hall effect in two-dimensional paramagnetic semiconductorsWe propose models of two-dimensional paramagnetic semiconductors where the intrinsic spin Hall effect is exactly quantized in integer units of a topological charge. The model describes a topological insulator in the bulk and a "holographic metal" at the edge, where the number of extended edge stat...Topological insulator; Holographic metal; Edge states2006-08
