what is the definition of spin gap?I may have ever heard a conclusion that spin gap will not exist while the system present long range order(right?),but the system of XXZ model in external field could stay in ferromagnetic phase,and have a long range order with a gapped excitation.why?

One more question appended.What is the order parameter of XXZ chain model in external field to distinguish between XY phase and ferromagnetic phase? Magnetization? but order parameter has a value of 0 for disorder phase,value of 1 for complete order phase...
 
From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...
Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
