A number of interesting properties of graphene and graphite are postulated to derive from the peculiar bandstructure of graphene. This bandstructure consists of conical electron and hole pockets that meet at a single point in momentum (k) space--the Dirac crossing, at energy $E_{D} = hbar omega_{D}$. Direct investigations of the accuracy of this bandstructure, the validity of the quasiparticle picture, and the influence of many-body interactions on the electronic structure have not been addressed for pure graphene by experiment to date. Using angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), we find that the expected conical bands are distorted by strong electron-electron, electron-phonon, and electron-plasmon coupling effects. The band velocity at $E_{F}$ and the Dirac crossing energy $E_{D}$ are both renormalized by these many-body interactions, in analogy with mass renormalization by electron-boson coupling in ordinary metals. These results are of importance not only for graphene but also graphite and carbon nanotubes which have similar bandstructures.

We present inelastic neutron scattering measurements of the Cairo pentagon lattice magnets Bi$_2$Fe$_4$O$_9$ and Bi$_4$Fe$_5$O$_{13}$F, supported by high field magnetisation measurements of Bi$_2$Fe$_4$O$_9$. Using linear spin wave theory and mean fi eld analyses we determine the spin exchange interactions and single-ion anisotropy in these materials. The Cairo lattice is geometrically frustrated and consists of two inequivalent magnetic sites, both occupied by Fe$^{3+}$ ions and connected by two competing nearest neighbour interactions. We found that one of these interactions, coupling nearest neighbour spins on the three-fold symmetric sites, is extremely strong and antiferromagnetic. These strongly coupled dimers are then weakly coupled to a framework formed from spins occupying the other inequivalent site. In addition we found that the Fe$^{3+}$ $S=5/2$ spins have a non-negligible single-ion anisotropy, which manifests as a spin anisotropy gap in the neutron spectrum and a spin-flop transition in high field magnetisation measurements.

We investigate the properties of the spectral function A(omega,U) of correlated electrons within the Hubbard model and dynamical mean-field theory. Curves of A(omega,U) vs. omega for different values of the interaction U are found to intersect near t he band-edges of the non-interacting system. For a wide range of U the crossing points are located within a sharply confined region. The precise location of these isosbestic points depends on details of the non-interacting band structure. Isosbestic points of dynamic quantities therefore provide valuable insights into microscopic energy scales of correlated systems.

A quantum state is nonclassical if its Glauber-Sudarshan P function fails to be interpreted as a probability density. This quantity is often highly singular, so that its reconstruction is a demanding task. Here we present the experimental determinati on of a well-behaved P function showing negativities for a single-photon-added thermal state. This is a direct visualization of the original definition of nonclassicality. The method can be useful under conditions for which many other signatures of nonclassicality would not persist.
We examine multiple techniques for extracting information from angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) data, and test them against simulated spectral functions for electron-phonon coupling. We find that, in the low-coupling regime, it is po ssible to extract self-energy and bare-band parameters through a self-consistent Kramers-Kronig bare-band fitting routine. We also show that the effective coupling parameters deduced from the renormalization of quasiparticle mass, velocity, and spectral weight are momentum dependent and, in general, distinct from the true microscopic coupling; the latter is thus not readily accessible in the quasiparticle dispersion revealed by ARPES.

We reinvestigate the momentum-resolved single-particle spectral function of the Tomonaga-Luttinger model. In particular, we focus on the role of the momentum-dependence of the two-particle interaction V(q). Usually, V(q) is assumed to be a constant a nd integrals are regularized in the ultraviolet `by hand employing an ad hoc procedure. As the momentum dependence of the interaction is irrelevant in the renormalization group sense this does not affect the universal low-energy properties of the model, e.g. exponents of power laws, if all energy scales are sent to zero. If, however, the momentum k is fixed away from the Fermi momentum k_F, with |k-k_F| setting a nonvanishing energy scale, the details of V(q) start to matter. We provide strong evidence that any curvature of the two-particle interaction at small transferred momentum q destroys power-law scaling of the momentum resolved spectral function as a function of energy. Even for |k-k_F| much smaller than the momentum space range of the interaction the spectral line shape depends on the details of V(q). The significance of our results for universality in the Luttinger liquid sense, for experiments on quasi one-dimensional metals, and for recent attempts to compute the spectral function of one-dimensional correlated systems taking effects of the curvature of the single-particle dispersion into account (nonlinear Luttinger liquid phenomenology) is discussed.
