On the single-particle spectrum of an interacting electron gas
(1967) 1. p.237-237- Abstract
- n the many-body theory of conduction electrons in a metal the single-particle spectrum is described not simply by the energy versus momentum relation as in band theory but by a function that describes the actual shape of the spectrum for a given momentum and has an appreciable spread in energy. Calculations of the spectral strength function for electrons in a uniform electron gas are described, where, besides the usual quasi-particle peak and a broad background, a new peak of appreciable strength appears for small momenta. The new excitation corresponds to a coupled mode of an electron and real plasmons. It has a strong effect on the energy distribution of electrons in the system. The effects should show up only in certain types of... (More)
