Thermal transport properties of disordered spin-1/2 systems
  This work studies heat transport of bond-disordered spin-1/2 chains. As an example, the XX case is analyzed, which corresponds to a model of noninteracting spinless fermions. Within the fermion representation, the single-particle eigenenergies are determined numerically, which allow one to compute transport coefficients. Since the ballistic transport properties of a clean chain are destroyed by disorder, the focus is on the frequency dependence of the thermal conductivity and on a qualitative comparison with the spin conductivity, both at finite temperatures.
