Direct experimental evidence of free-fermion antibunching.

چکیده
Fermion antibunching was observed on a beam of free noninteracting neutrons. A monochromatic beam of thermal neutrons was first split by a graphite single crystal, then fed to two detectors, displaying a reduced coincidence rate. The result is a fermionic complement to the Hanbury Brown and Twiss effect for photons.

Variational Calculations for the Relativistic Interacting Fermion System at Finite Temperature: Application to Liquid 3He
In this paper, at first we have formulated the lowest order constrained variational method for the relativistic case of an interacting fermion system at finite temperature. Then we have used this formalism to calculate some thermodynamic properties of liquid in the relativistic regime. The results show that the difference between total energies of relativistic and non-relativistic cases of liqu...
متن کاملDirac fermion heating, current scaling, and direct insulator-quantum Hall transition in multilayer epitaxial graphene
We have performed magnetotransport measurements on multilayer epitaxial graphene. By increasing the driving current I through our graphene devices while keeping the bath temperature fixed, we are able to study Dirac fermion heating and current scaling in such devices. Using zero-field resistivity as a self thermometer, we are able to determine the effective Dirac fermion temperature (TDF) at va...
متن کاملEffect of fermionic components on trion–electron scattering
To test the validity of replacing a composite fermion by an elementary fermion,we calculate the transition rate from a statemade of one free electron and one trion to a similar electron–trion pair, through the time evolution of such a pair induced by Coulomb interaction between elementary fermions. It is convenient to describe trion as one electron interacting with one exciton. This allows us t...

متن کاملDetection of Single Photon Emission by Hanbury-Brown Twiss Interferometry
We prepare a solution of nano-diamond particles on a glass microscope slide with a target concentration of 1 × 10 M. Using a confocal microscope, we observe photons emitted from the particles via excitation from a pulsed 532 nm solid state laser at 840 μW. A Hanbury Brown and Twiss interferometer is used to probe these photons for evidence of antibunching. At this time, we did not observe antib...
