27. In consistency with the practice in quantum dot physics, we use the notation TK in such a way that if one replaces T by TK in the Curie law, the known Bethe ansatz result for the susceptibility at T=0 is obtained, while Hewson uses the TK defined from the high T expansion. The latter, through inclusion of the Wilson number, would yield a value around 40% as big. However, in the preliminary version of a piece of this work (cond-mat/0108525), this smaller value was used, thus explaining the apparent disagreement between that work and this.
