Josephson Current For a Graphene Nanoribbon Using a Lattice Model

A tight binding approach based on the Bogoliubov-de Gennes approach has been used to calculate the DC Josephson current for a lattice model for S-GNR-S junctions , for short junctions with respect to superconducting coherence length. We calculate the phase, length, width and chemical potential dependence at the Josephson junction and discuss the similarities and differences with regard to the t...

Lattice Gauge Theory

Supercomputers have recently become a crucial tool for the quantum field the-orist. Applied to the formalism of lattice gauge theory, numerical simulations are providing fundamental quantitative information about the interactions of quarks, the fundamental constituents of those particles which experience nuclear interactions. Perhaps most strikingly, these simulations have provided convincing e...

Lattice Gauge Theory for Physics beyond the Standard Model

The implications of lattice field theory for particle physics go far beyond the traditional studies of low energy QCD phenomenology which are currently the major focus of the field. New strongly coupled field theories may well be discovered at LHC scales; for these the lattice will be the major tool. Also supersymmetry is important to many high energy models so their phase structure and spectru...
