Spinons in Conformal Field Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We study the su(2)su(2) conformal field theory in its spinon description, adapted to the Yangian invariance. By evaluating the action of the Yangian generators on the primary fields, we find a new connection between this conformal field theory and the Calogero-Sutherland model with su(2)su(2) spin. We use this connection to describe how the spinons are the quasi-particles spanning the irreducible Yangian multiplet, and also to exhibit operators creating the NN-spinon highest weight vectors.
