The ground states of interacting one-dimensional metals are generically Luttinger liquids. Luttinger liquid theory is usually considered for translation invariant systems. The Luttinger liquid description remains valid for weak…
Among all materials, mono-crystalline diamond has one of the highest measured thermal conductivities, with values above 2000 W/m/K at room temperature. This stems from momentum-conserving `normal' phonon-phonon scattering processes…
