Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Systematic odd-even binding energy differences in finite metallic particles are usually attributed to mean-field orbital energy effects or to a coherent pairing interaction. We show analytically and numerically that a purely random two-body Hamiltonian can also give rise to an odd-even staggering. We explore the characteristics of this chaotic mechanism and discuss distinguishing features with respect to the other causes of staggering. In particular, randomness-induced staggering is found to be a smooth function of particle number, and the mechanism is seen to be largely insensitive to the presence of a magnetic field.
