Abstract
The thermodynamic Bethe-ansatz equations for the one-dimensional Hubbard model with attractive on-site interaction of the electrons are solved numerically at low temperatures. At low temperatures the dominant states consist of spin-paired electrons (Cooper-pairlike) and excitations of such pairs (without breaking up the singlet bound states). A critical field (energy required to depair a Cooper pair) is obtained at T=0 (note that the superconducting Tc=0), which disappears for T 0. The specific heat is linear in temperature, and the dependence of the coefficient on band filling and magnetic field is discussed. The excitation spectrum shows some analogies with that of resonant valence bonds in two dimensions.
