(last updated on 2007/04/06)Abstract:
Newly discovered carbon nanotubes provide an environment in which small atoms move relatively freely. An assembly of such atoms provides a realization of a quasi-one-dimensional system which can be used to illustrate the concepts of statistical physicsKeywords:
