Spin-charge separation and localization in one-dimension
  We report on measurements of quantum many-body modes in ballistic wires and their dependence on Coulomb interactions, obtained from tunneling between two parallel wires in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure while varying electron density. We observe two spin modes and one charge mode of the coupled wires, and map the dispersion velocities of the modes down to a critical density, at which spontaneous localization is observed. Theoretical calculations of the charge velocity agree well with the data, although they also predict an additional charge mode that is not observed. The measured spin velocity is found to be smaller than theoretically predicted.
