Damping of long-wavelength collective excitations in quasi-onedimensional Fermi liquids
نویسندگان
چکیده
The imaginary part of the exchange-correlation kernel in the longitudinal current-current response function of a quasi-onedimensional Fermi liquid is evaluated by an approximate decoupling in the equation of motion for the current density, which accounts for processes of excitation of two particle-hole pairs. The two-pair spectrum determines the intrinsic damping rate of long-wavelength collective density fluctuations, which is calculated and contrasted with a result previously obtained for a clean Luttinger liquid. PACS: 71.10.Pm

Damping of Long-Wavelength Collective Modes in Spinor Bose-Fermi Mixtures.
Using an effective field theory we describe the low energy bosonic excitations in a three-dimensional ultracold mixture of spin-1 bosons and spin-1/2 fermions. We establish an interesting fermionic excitation induced generic damping of the usual undamped long-wavelength bosonic collective Goldstone modes. Two states with bosons forming either a ferromagnetic or polar superfluid are studied. The...

We present a phenomenological picture for the many-body excitations of a two-dimensional electron gas in a quantum well spin polarized by a dc magnetic field at an angle u with the axis of the well. In the framework of the Landau theory of charged Fermi liquids, we determine the frequencies of collective modes by solving a transport equation for quasiparticles in the local electromagnetic field...

We investigate the charge and spin collective modes induced in a 2D electron gas by a weak electromagnetic perturbation in the presence of a dc magnetic field which makes an angle 0 with the electron layer. The excitation frequencies are determined within , the framework of the Landau-Silin theory of Fermi liquids by solving a semi-classical equation for transport in the selfconsistent electrom...
متن کاملA brief introduction to Luttinger liquids
I give a brief introduction to Luttinger liquids. Luttinger liquids are paramagnetic one-dimensional metals without Landau quasi-particle excitations. The elementary excitations are collective charge and spin modes, leading to charge-spin separation. Correlation functions exhibit power-law behavior. All physical properties can be calculated, e.g. by bosonization, and depend on three parameters ...

We present the theory of damping of low-energy excitations of a trapped Bose condensate at finite temperatures, where the damping is provided by the interaction of these excitations with the thermal excitations. We emphasize the key role of stochastization in the behavior of the thermal excitations for damping in non-spherical traps. The damping rates of the lowest excita-tions, following from ...
