Usage Examples
Converse of object
- interact: Microscopically, however, quantal effects of the large, yet finite, ensemble of strongly interacting fermions need to be considered.
- call: Furthermore, the resultant particles, called composite fermions, interact with each other very little.
Adjective modifier
- staggered: This is suitable when the bounds of the approximation are known not to change, as staggered fermions.
- heavy: The archetypal strongly correlated system is that of heavy fermions.
- fundamental: Quark ( q ) A fundamental fermion that has strong interactions.
- composite: A composite fermion consists of an electron ( or hole ) bound to an even number of magnetic flux quanta.
- massless: Restrictions: The theoretical formulation is specifically worked out for massless fermions, although this is not a limitation of principle.
- dynamical: The R2 algorithm is specifically for simulating 2+1 flavors of dynamical staggered fermions of different masses.
Modifies a noun
- matrix: The general Wilson type of fermion matrix is where the Wilson hopping matrix D is w Note that D connects sites of opposite parity.
- mass: A precision of 50 to 100 digits should suffice, depending on the fermion mass.
- field: The fermion field storage order is the canonical one.
- action: Whether the lattice fields need to be converted to to a new storage order appropriate for the type of fermion action.
- type: The fermion field storage order is not the canonical one but it is particular to the fermion type.
- system: Nature of problem: The output of this program describes the thermalisation by internal collisions in a nonrelativistic infinite fermion system.
