On the quasiparticle description ofc= 1 CFTs
Davide Controzzi, Kareljan Schoutens
Abstract
We show that the description of c = 1 conformal field theory in terms of quasiparticles satisfying fractional statistics can be obtained from the sine-Gordon model with a chemical potential A , in the limit where A ≫ M . These quasiparticles are related to the excitations of the Calogero–Sutherland (CS) model. We provide a direct calculation of their two-particle S -matrix using Korepin's method. We also reconsider the computation of the CS S -matrix in terms of particles with fractional charge.
