Abstract
A meshlike energy structure of collective intersubband excitations and damped collective energy level crossings are predicted for electrons confined on a cylindrical graphitic nanotube. Unusual Kohn anomalies, besides 2, are found for nanotubes. Multipole collective excitations are obtained for and related quasispherical fullerenes, and the results are in excellent agreement with available experimental measurements.
