Abstract
A previously introduced real space renormalization-group treatment of the
random
transverse-field
Ising spin chain is extended to provide detailed
information on the distribution of the energy gap and the end-to-end
correlation function for long chains with free boundary conditions. Numerical
data,
using the mapping of the problem to free fermions, are found to be in good
agreement with the analytic finite size scaling predictions.
