The charge gap in the Kondo insulator is calculated for an arbitrary value of the coupling; its value is determined by the effective antiferromagnetic exchange interaction, taking into account both direct and through hybridization exchange interactions. It is shown that in the case of weak coupling the width of the gap is determined by the scattering of band electrons. Its magnitude is proportional to the squared effective exchange interaction between band and localized electrons, and in the case of a strong coupling it is determined by energy of singlet.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8249,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Physics","volume":"479 ","pages":"Article 170037"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143877580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the context of two generations, we calculate the oscillation probabilities precisely in a scenario where only the Dirac mass term is present. Our analysis reveals the emergence of two new features in the oscillation probabilities derived from the Dirac equation. The first feature is that the oscillation probabilities depend on the absolute value of the neutrino mass. While it has generally been assumed that oscillation probabilities depend solely on mass squared differences, we show that they also depend on the absolute mass. The second feature is the emergence of a new CP phase. If interactions exist that can distinguish the flavors of right-handed neutrinos in physics beyond the Standard Model, we could potentially observe this new CP phase even in the two-generation model. We discuss the feasibility of detecting the contributions of these features through neutrino oscillations at atomic scales.

This is because the momentum routing is usually chosen to fulfill the desired Ward identity. In the case of the chiral anomaly, the momentum routing is chosen in order to fulfill the gauge Ward identity and break the chiral Ward identity. Although the chiral anomaly is physical because it is associated with the pion decay into two photons, this does not necessarily mean that the momentum routing invariance is broken because the momentum routing was chosen in the computation of the anomaly. The reciprocal is not true, <em>i.e.</em> anomalies do not imply in momentum routing invariance breaking. In this work, we show that if gauge invariance is assumed, the chiral and the scale anomalies are independent of the momentum routing chosen and as a result they are momentum routing invariant.
