Novel quasiparticles (QP's) called composite Fermions (CF's) have allowed a simple single particle description of the most prominent incompressible states. Residual interactions among these QP's are investigated. These interactions determine the type of \"daughter states\" that can occur at the next generation. We demonstrate that at certain values of the QP filling factor nu_QP, Laughlin correlations among the QP's give rise to states of the standard CF hierarchy. At other values of nu_QP pairing of QP's is found leading to a novel hierarchy of incompressible states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-08-20T15:41:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum hall systems", "composite fermions", "simple single particle description", "incompressible states", "quantum fluid states" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003cond.mat..8407Q" } } }
