AbstractWithin the model of stable random matrices possessing translational invariance, a two-dimensional (on a square lattice) disordered oscillatory system with random strongly fluctuating bonds is considered. By a numerical analysis of the dynamic structure factor S ( q , ω), it is shown that vibrations with frequencies below the Ioffe-Regel frequency ω_IR are ordinary phonons with a linear dispersion law ω( q ) ∝ q and a reciprocal lifetime б ~ q ^3. Vibrations with frequencies above ω_IR, although being delocalized, cannot be described by plane waves with a definite dispersion law ω( q ). They are characterized by a diffusion structure factor with a reciprocal lifetime б ~ q ^2, which is typical of a diffusion process. In the literature, they are often referred to as diffusons. It is shown that, as in the three-dimensional model, the boson peak at the frequency ωb in the reduced density of vibrational states g (ω)/ω is on the order of the frequency ω_IR. It is located in the transition region between phonons and diffusons and is proportional to the Young’s modulus of the lattice, ω_ b ≃ E .

The possible realization of Majorana fermions as quasiparticle excitations in condensed-matter physics has created much excitement. Most studies have focused on Majorana bound states; however, propagating Majorana states with linear dispersion have also been predicted. Here, we report scanning tunneling spectroscopic measurements of crystalline domain walls (DWs) in FeSe0.45Te0.55. We located DWs across which the lattice structure shifts by half a unit cell. These DWs have a finite, flat density of states inside the superconducting gap, which is a hallmark of linearly dispersing modes in one dimension. This signature is absent in DWs in the related superconductor, FeSe, which is not in the topological phase. Our combined data are consistent with the observation of dispersing Majorana states at a π-phase shift DW in a proximitized topological material.

Introduction. Today, the development of the graphene theory to control its physical and mechanical properties is a relevant objective. The paper deals with the conducting properties of graphene. In particular, the paper investigates the linear law of electron dispersion and traces its corollaries. Materials and Methods. The development of the theory is based on the verified experimental data and on the foundamental principles of the solid body theory and quantum mechanics. The study follows the universal synergetic principle according to which, there have been developed two split-level mathematical models of the quasi-particle motion in graphene on exposure to the electric field. On the macroscopic level, we suggest that graphene should be analyzed as a crystal consisting of three parallel planes. Two of them are electron gas. The remaining one is the main body of the crystal. On the microscopic level, the quasi-particle motion of the electron wave is described through the Schroedinger equation. Results. The study has developed the alternative method for the explanation of the linear dispersion law in graphene on the macroscopic level. Basing on the analysis of the model, the paper provides a hypothesis of the cooperative motion of the electron pairs, which make up a boson particle. The given hypothesis is different from the traditional one. In accordance with the latter, quasi-particles in graphene are Dirac fermions. To prove the hypothesis consilience, the study examines Hall’s effect in grapheme. The linear dispersion law for a pair of electrons is also deduced from the Schroedinger equation. Both the macroscopic and microscopic models are in a reasonable agreement with the experimental data. Discussion and Conclusion. The main result of the research is the development of the multi-level mathematical model which properly features the conducting properties of graphene (linear dispersion law, anomalous Hall effect). The practical relevance consists in revealing the possibility to control the conducting properties of graphene through impacts on electron pairs.

SummaryUsing sophisticated computer programs and elaborate physical models, accurate radiative and collisional atomic data of astrophysical interest have been or are being calculated. The cases treated include radiative transitions between bound states in the 2p4and 2s2p5configurations of many ions in the oxygen isoelectronic sequence, the photoionisation of the ground state of neutral iron, the electron impact excitation of the fine-structure forbidden transitions within the 3p3ground configuration of CℓIII, Ar IV and K V, and the mass-production of radiative data for ions in the oxygen and fluorine isoelectronic sequences, as part of the international Opacity Project.

The article considers the oscillations of interband magneto-optical absorption in semiconductors with the Kane dispersion law. We have compared the changes in oscillations of the joint density of states with respect to the photon energy for different Landau levels in parabolic and non-parabolic zones. An analytical expression is obtained for the oscillation of the combined density of states in narrow-gap semiconductors. We have calculated the dependence of the maximum photon energy on the magnetic field at different temperatures. A theoretical study of the band structure showed that the magnetoabsorption oscillations decrease with an increase in temperature, and the photon energies nonlinearly depend on a strong magnetic field. The article proposes a simple method for calculating the oscillation of joint density of states in a quantizing magnetic field with the non-quadratic dispersion law. The temperature dependence of the oscillations joint density of states in semiconductors with non-parabolic dispersion law is obtained. Moreover, the article studies the temperature dependence of the band gap in a strong magnetic field with the non-quadratic dispersion law. The method is applied to the research of the magnetic absorption in narrow-gap semiconductors with nonparabolic dispersion law. It is shown that as the temperature increases, Landau levels are washed away due to thermal broadening and density of states turns into a density of states without a magnetic field. Using the mathematical model, the temperature dependence of the density distribution of energy states in strong magnetic fields is considered. It is shown that the continuous spectrum of the density of states, measured at the temperature of liquid nitrogen, at low temperatures turns into discrete Landau levels. Mathematical modeling of processes using experimental values of the continuous spectrum of the density of states makes it possible to calculate discrete Landau levels. We have created the three-dimensional fan chart of magneto optical oscillations of semiconductors with considering for the joint density of energy states. For a nonquadratic dispersion law, the maximum frequency of the absorbed light and the width of the forbidden band are shown to depend nonlinearly on the magnetic field. Modeling the temperature  dependence allowed us to determine the Landau levels in semiconductors in a wide temperature spectrum. Using the proposed model, the experimental results obtained for narrow-gap semiconductors are analyzed. The theoretical results are compared with experimental results.
