Imaging Electron Wave Functions of Quantized Energy Levels in Carbon Nanotubes

Kavli Affiliate: Sander Tans | Summary:Carbon nanotubes provide a unique system to study one-dimensional quantization phenomena. Scanning tunneling microscopy is used to observe the electronic wave functions that correspond to quantized energy levels in short metallic carbon nanotubes. Discrete electron waves are apparent from periodic oscillations in the differential conductance as a function of the […]

Heavy Quark Production and Decay: t, b, and onia

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Partridge | Summary:This paper summarizes a variety of recent results on heavy quark production and decay. Considerable progress has been made by CDF and D0 in measuring top quark production and decay properties. The top quark mass been measured with an uncertainty that is less than 3%, a relative precision that is […]
