the Kolkata restaurant problem, where the decision to go to any restaurant or
not is much simpler (depending on the previous experience of course, as in the
El Farol bar problem). This generalised problem can be exactly analysed in some
limiting cases discussed here. The fluctuation in the restaurant service can be
shown to have precisely an inverse cubic behavior, as widely seen in the stock
market fluctuations.

Minor update to conform to published paper, with minor language improvements
and citation updates included | null | 10.1002/asna.200710795 | null | astro-ph | null | Solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) show a large variety in their kinematic
properties. CMEs originating in active regions and accompanied by strong flares
are usually faster and accelerated more impulsively than CMEs associated with
filament eruptions outside active regions and weak flares. It has been proposed
more than two decades ago that there are two separate types of CMEs, fast
(impulsive) CMEs and slow (gradual) CMEs. However, this concept may not be
valid, since the large data sets acquired in recent years do not show two
distinct peaks in the CME velocity distribution and reveal that both fast and
slow CMEs can be accompanied by both weak and strong flares. We present
numerical simulations which confirm our earlier analytical result that a
flux-rope CME model permits describing fast and slow CMEs in a unified manner.
We consider a force-free coronal magnetic flux rope embedded in the potential
field of model bipolar and quadrupolar active regions. The eruption is driven
by the torus instability which occurs if the field overlying the flux rope
decreases sufficiently rapidly with height. The acceleration profile depends on
the steepness of this field decrease, corresponding to fast CMEs for rapid
decrease, as is typical of active regions, and to slow CMEs for gentle
decrease, as is typical of the quiet Sun. Complex (quadrupolar) active regions
lead to the fastest CMEs.

The
ungauged Lagrangians can be encoded in an E_7(7)\Sp(56,R)/GL(28) matrix
associated with the freedom of performing electric/magnetic duality
transformations. The gauging is defined in terms of an embedding tensor which
encodes the subgroup of E_7(7) that is realized as a local invariance. This
embedding tensor may imply the presence of magnetic charges which require
corresponding dual gauge fields. The latter can be incorporated by using a
recently proposed formulation that involves tensor gauge fields in the adjoint
representation of E_7(7). In this formulation the results take a universal form
irrespective of the electric/magnetic duality basis. We present the general
class of supersymmetric and gauge invariant Lagrangians and discuss a number of
applications.

moduli space of marginal deformations of closed bosonic string field theory to
polynomial order five. We use the results of this successful check in order to
find the best functional form of a fit of quintic amplitudes. We then use this
fit in order to accurately compute the tachyon and dilaton effective potential
in the limit of infinite level. We observe that to order four, the effective
potential gives unexpectedly accurate results for the vacuum. We are thus led
to conjecture that the effective potential, to a given order, is a good
approximation to the whole potential including all interactions from the
vertices up to this order from the untruncated string field. We then go on and
compute the effective potential to order five. We analyze its vacuum structure
and find that it has several saddle points, including the Yang-Zwiebach vacuum,
but also a local minimum. We discuss the possible physical meanings of these
vacua.

on triangulated spheres with compartmentalized domains. Both models are found
to undergo a first-order collapsing transition and a first-order surface
fluctuation transition. The first model is a fluid surface one. The vertices
can freely diffuse only inside the compartments, and they are prohibited from
the free diffusion over the surface due to the domain boundaries. The second is
a skeleton model. The surface shape of the skeleton model is maintained only by
the domain boundaries, which are linear chains with rigid junctions. Therefore,
we can conclude that the first-order transitions occur independent of whether
the shape of surface is mechanically maintained by the skeleton (= the domain
boundary) or by the surface itself.

large numbers. It is revealed that the saddle point equation obtained by the
usage of the law of large numbers is the same as that obtained by the replica
method. Hence, we conclude that the replica symmetric solution is adequate for
the disordered urn model. Furthermore, we point out the mathematical similarity
of free energies between the urn models and the Random Field Ising Model; this
similarity gives an evidence that the replica symmetric solution of the urn
models is exact.

infectious diseases. Current mathematical methods for epidemiological
forecasting on networks largely assume that contacts between individuals are
fixed, at least for the duration of an outbreak. In reality, contact patterns
may be quite fluid, with individuals frequently making and breaking social or
sexual relationships. Here we develop a mathematical approach to predicting
disease transmission on dynamic networks in which each individual has a
characteristic behavior (typical contact number), but the identities of their
contacts change in time. We show that dynamic contact patterns shape
epidemiological dynamics in ways that cannot be adequately captured in static
network models or mass-action models. Our new model interpolates smoothly
between static network models and mass-action models using a mixing parameter,
thereby providing a bridge between disparate classes of epidemiological models.
Using epidemiological and sexual contact data from an Atlanta high school, we
then demonstrate the utility of this method for forecasting and controlling
sexually transmitted disease outbreaks.

most visited web-sites on the Internet. However, critics have questioned the
quality of entries, and an empirical study has shown Wikipedia to contain
errors in a 2005 sample of science entries. Biased coverage and lack of sources
are among the "Wikipedia risks". The present work describes a simple assessment
of these aspects by examining the outbound links from Wikipedia articles to
articles in scientific journals with a comparison against journal statistics
from Journal Citation Reports such as impact factors. The results show an
increasing use of structured citation markup and good agreement with the
citation pattern seen in the scientific literature though with a slight
tendency to cite articles in high-impact journals such as Nature and Science.
These results increase confidence in Wikipedia as an good information organizer
for science in general.

propagation of these waves using hydrodynamic equations for electron transport
coupled with two-dimensional Poisson equation for self-consistent electric
potential. The term related to electron collisions with impurities and phonons
as well as the term associated with viscosity are included into the
hydrodynamic equations. We demonstrate the formation of shock and soliton-like
waves as a result of the evolution of strongly nonuniform initial electron
density distribution. It is shown that the shock wave front and the shape of
soliton-like pulses pronouncedly depend on the coefficient of viscosity, the
thickness of the gate layer and the nonuniformity of the donor distribution
along the channel. The electron collisions result in damping of the shock and
soliton-like waves, while they do not markedly affect the thickness of the
shock wave front.

only if both the real and the imaginary geodesics are closed and we
characterize such double--periodicity condition via real hyperelliptic
tangential coverings. We prove the density of algebraically closed geodesics on
n-dimensional ellipsoids with respect to the natural topology in the
(2n)-dimensional real parameter space. In particular, the approximating
sequence of algebraic closed geodesics on the approximated ellipsoids may be
chosen so to share the same values of the length and of the real period vector
as the limiting closed geodesic on the limiting ellipsoid.
Finally, for real doubly-periodic geodesics on triaxial ellipsoids, we show
how to evaluate algebraically the period mapping and we present some explicit
examples of families of algebraically closed geodesics.

prescription for computing (all) planar amplitudes in N=4 supersymmetric gauge
theory at strong coupling using the AdS/CFT correspondence. These amplitudes
are determined by a classical string solution and contain a universal
exponential factor involving the action of the classical string. On the gauge
theory side, expressions for perturbative amplitudes at strong coupling were
previously proposed only for specific helicities of external particles -- the
maximally helicity violating or MHV amplitudes. These follow from the
exponential ansatz of Bern, Dixon and Smirnov for MHV amplitudes in N=4 SYM. In
this paper we examine the amplitudes dependence on helicities and
particle-types of external states. We consider the prefactor of string
amplitudes and give arguments suggesting that the prefactor at strong coupling
should be the same as the Yang-Mills tree-level amplitude for the same process.
This implies that scattering amplitudes in N=4 SYM simplify dramatically in the
strong coupling limit. It follows from our proposal that in this limit all (MHV
and non-MHV) n-point amplitudes are given by the (known) tree-level Yang-Mills
result times the helicity-independent (and particle-type-independent) universal
exponential.

B 75, 184413 (2007) (9 pages) | 10.1103/PhysRevB.75.184413 | null | cond-mat.stat-mech cond-mat.dis-nn | null | The present paper considers some classical ferromagnetic lattice--gas models,
consisting of particles that carry $n$--component spins ($n=2,3$) and
associated with a $D$--dimensional lattice ($D=2,3$); each site can host one
particle at most, thus implicitly allowing for hard--core repulsion; the pair
interaction, restricted to nearest neighbors, is ferromagnetic, and site
occupation is also controlled by the chemical potential $\mu$. The models had
previously been investigated by Mean Field and Two--Site Cluster treatments
(when D=3), as well as Grand--Canonical Monte Carlo simulation in the case
$\mu=0$, for both D=2 and D=3; the obtained results showed the same kind of
critical behaviour as the one known for their saturated lattice counterparts,
corresponding to one particle per site. Here we addressed by Grand--Canonical
Monte Carlo simulation the case where the chemical potential is negative and
sufficiently large in magnitude; the value $\mu=-D/2$ was chosen for each of
the four previously investigated counterparts, together with $\mu=-3D/4$ in an
additional instance. We mostly found evidence of first order transitions, both
for D=2 and D=3, and quantitatively characterized their behaviour. Comparisons
are also made with recent experimental results.

Dark Matter experiment. The detector consists of two concentric spheres and a
charge readout device in the centre. Xenon between the two spheres forms a
self-shield and veto device. The inner surface of the central sphere is coated
with CsI to form an internal photocathode with minimum of 2\pi coverage for any
event in the active volume. Photoelectrons from the CsI photocathode drift
toward the charge readout micro-structure in the centre of the detector. Both
scintillation and ionisation are measured simultaneously for background
rejection and 3-D event mapping. In addition to external shielding, the low
background is achieved by eliminating PMTs and by using low radioactivity pure
materials throughout the detector. We present detailed calculations of the
charge readout system and design details. The detector is expected to probe the
full SUSY parameter space.

Kempf's distortion function and the Tian-Yau-Zelditch (TYZ) asymptotic
expansion for the Kepler manifold - an important example of non compact
manfold. Motivated by the recent results for compact manifolds we construct
Kempf's distortion function and derive a precise TYZ asymptotic expansion for
the Kepler manifold. We get an exact formula: finite asymptotic expansion of
$n-1$ terms and exponentially small error terms uniformly with respect to the
discrete quantization parameter $m\to \infty $ and $\rho \to \infty$, $\rho$
being the polar radius in $\C^n$.
Moreover, the coefficents are calculated explicitly and they turned out to be
homogeneous functions with respect to the polar radius in the Kepler manifold.
We also prove and derive an asymptotic expansion of the obtstruction term with
the coefficients being defined by geometrical quantities. We show that our
estimates are sharp by analyzing the nonharmonic behaviour of $T_m$ and the
error term of the approximation of the Fubini--Study metric by $m\omega$ for
$m\to +\infty$. The arguments of the proofs combine geometrical methods,
quantization tools and functional analytic techniques for investigating
asymptotic expansions in the framework of analytic-Gevrey spaces.

"From our star to far stars: Variation and Variability". Accepted for
publication in Astronomische Nachrichten | null | 10.1002/asna.200710800 | null | astro-ph | null | It is well known that magnetic activity in late-type stars increases with
increasing rotation rate. Using inversion techniques akin to medical imaging,
the rotationally broadened profiles from such stars can be used to reconstruct
`Doppler images' of the distribution of cool, dark starspots on their stellar
surfaces. Interacting binaries, however, contain some of the most rapidly
rotating late-type stars known and thus provide important tests of stellar
dynamo models. Furthermore, magnetic activity is thought to play a key role in
their evolution, behaviour and accretion dynamics. Despite this, we know
comparatively little about the magnetic activity and its influence on such
binaries. In this review we summarise the concepts behind indirect imaging of
these systems, and present movies of the starspot distributions on the cool
stars in some interacting binaries. We conclude with a look at the future
opportunities that such studies may provide.

or any other two-level system (qubit) interacting with the quantized
electromagnetic field is developed. This description exploits a close analogy
between a two-level system and the Dirac electron that comes to light when the
two-level system is described within the formalism of second quantization in
terms of fermionic creation and annihilation operators. The analogy enables one
to introduce all the powerful tools of relativistic QED (albeit in a greatly
simplified form). The Feynman diagrams and the propagators turn out to be very
useful. In particular, the QED concept of the vacuum polarization finds its
close counterpart in the photon scattering off a two level-system leading via
the linear response theory to the general formulas for the atomic
polarizability and the dynamic single spin susceptibility. To illustrate the
usefulness of these methods, we calculate the polarizability and susceptibility
up to the fourth order of perturbation theory. These {\em ab initio}
calculations resolve some ambiguities concerning the sign prescription and the
optical damping that arise in the phenomenological treatment. We also show that
the methods used to study two-level systems (qubits) can be extended to
many-level systems (qudits). As an example, we describe the interaction with
the quantized electromagnetic field of an atom with four relevant states: one S
state and three degenerate P states.

in structure. Section on hypervelocity stars moved to another paper (in
preparation). Results and conclusions unchanged. Accepted to ApJ | null | 10.1086/527525 | null | astro-ph | null | We show that dynamical relaxation in the aftermath of a galactic merger and
the ensuing formation and decay of a binary massive black hole (MBH), are
dominated by massive perturbers (MPs) such as giant molecular clouds or
clusters. MPs accelerate relaxation by orders of magnitude relative to 2-body
stellar relaxation alone, and efficiently scatter stars into the binary MBH's
orbit. The 3-body star-binary MBH interactions shrink the binary MBH to the
point where energy losses from the emission of gravitational waves (GW) lead to
rapid coalescence. We model this process based on observed and simulated MP
distributions and take into account the decreased efficiency of the star-binary
MBH interaction due to acceleration in the galactic potential. We show that
mergers of gas-rich galactic nuclei lead to binary MBH coalescence well within
the Hubble time. Moreover, lower-mass binary MBHs (<10^8 Msun) require only a
few percent of the typical gas mass in a post-merger nucleus to coalesce in a
Hubble time. The fate of a binary MBH in a gas poor galactic merger is less
certain, although massive stellar structures (e.g. clusters, stellar rings)
could likewise lead to efficient coalescence. These coalescence events are
observable by their strong GW emission. MPs thus increase the cosmic rate of
such GW events, lead to a higher mass deficit in the merged galactic core and
suppress the formation of triple MBH systems and the resulting ejection of MBHs
into intergalactic space.

approach, a hierarchy of ODEs are solved along a trajectory with zero velocity.
The new approximation is local, both literally and from a quantum mechanical
point of view, in the sense that neighboring trajectories do not communicate
with each other. The approach is readily extended to imaginary time propagation
and is particularly useful for the calculation of quantities where only local
information is required. We present two applications: the calculation of
tunneling probabilities and the calculation of low energy eigenvalues. In both
applications we obtain excellent agrement with the exact quantum mechanics,
with a single trajectory propagation.

systems for the investigation of the physics in reduced dimensions. In the
metallic state of a one-dimensional solid, Fermi-liquid theory breaks down and
spin and charge degrees of freedom become separated. But the metallic phase is
not stable in one dimension: as the temperature is reduced, the electronic
charge and spin tend to arrange themselves in an ordered fashion due to strong
correlations. The competition of the different interactions is responsible for
which broken-symmetry ground state is eventually realized in a specific
compound and which drives the system towards an insulating state.
Here we review the various ordering phenomena and how they can be identified
by optic and magnetic measurements. While the final results might look very
similar in the case of a charge density wave and a charge-ordered metal, for
instance, the physical cause is completely different. When density waves form,
a gap opens in the density of states at the Fermi energy due to nesting of the
one-dimension Fermi surface sheets. When a one-dimensional metal becomes a
charge-ordered Mott insulator, on the other hand, the short-range Coulomb
repulsion localizes the charge on the lattice sites and even causes certain
charge patterns.
We try to point out the similarities and conceptional differences of these
phenomena and give an example for each of them. Particular emphasis will be put
on collective phenomena which are inherently present as soon as ordering breaks
the symmetry of the system.

to be fully automatized). The project is centralized on a collaborative wiki
website. The VSOP operational model is very successful, data is continously
flowing and being analyszed, and VSOP is now a worldwide open collaboration of
people with very different and complementary skills and expertise. The idea of
a central wiki website has been extended by one of us to propose a new service

of reduced and published astronomical data. Its strengths and a comparison with
the Virtual Observatory are discussed. See: http://vsop.sc.eso.org and

fermions in string theory in more than two dimensions? Type 0'B string theory
in ten-dimensional flat space is a rare example of a non-tachyonic,
non-supersymmetric string theory with a purely bosonic closed string spectrum.
However, all known type 0' constructions exhibit massless NSNS tadpoles
signaling the fact that we are not expanding around a true vacuum of the
theory. In this note, we are searching for perturbatively stable examples of
type 0' string theory without massless tadpoles in backgrounds with a spatially
varying dilaton. We present two examples with this property in non-critical
string theories that exhibit four- and six-dimensional Poincare invariance. We
discuss the D-branes that can be embedded in this context and the type of gauge
theories that can be constructed in this manner. We also comment on the
embedding of these non-critical models in critical string theories and their
holographic (Little String Theory) interpretation and propose a general
conjecture for the role of asymptotic supersymmetry in perturbative string
theory.

high-p_T hadrons in hadron-hadron collisions, in the case that the hadrons are
back-to-back, so that k_T factorization is to be used. The explicit
counterexample that we construct is for the single-spin asymmetry with one beam
transversely polarized. The Sivers function needed here has particular
sensitivity to the Wilson lines in the parton densities. We use a greatly
simplified model theory to make the breakdown of factorization easy to check
explicitly. But the counterexample implies that standard arguments for
factorization fail not just for the single-spin asymmetry but for the
unpolarized cross section for back-to-back hadron production in QCD in
hadron-hadron collisions. This is unlike corresponding cases in e^+e^-
annihilation, Drell-Yan, and deeply inelastic scattering. Moreover, the result
endangers factorization for more general hadroproduction processes.

stretched exponential decay. On the other hand relaxation of the magnetization
starting with an uncorrelated initial state with magnetization, m_i, approaches
either m_c, for m_i>0.5, or zero, for m_i<0.5. For small m_i and for m_i
slightly larger than 0.5 the relaxation of the magnetization shows an
asymptotic power-law time dependence, thus from a nonequilibrium point of view
the transition is continuous.

CREA, Ecole Polytechnique & CNRS, Paris, February 22-23, 2007 | null | null | null | quant-ph | null | In the past both instrumentalism and empiricism have inspired certain
pragmatic elements into the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. The
relation of such pragmatisms with the correspondence principle is discussed. It
is argued that neither Bohr nor Heisenberg did take `correspondence' in one of
these forms, and that it, in particular, was Bohr's classical attitude which
caused him to apply in an inconsistent way his correspondence principle to the
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiment, thus causing much confusion. It is
demonstrated that an empiricist pragmatism is conducive to an explanation of
violation of the Bell inequalities as a consequence of `complementarity' in the
sense of `mutual disturbance in a joint nonideal measurement of incompatible
observables' rather than as being caused by `nonlocal influences'.

groundstates of mean-field diluted spin glasses) undergoes several structural
phase transitions as the amount of constraints is increased. This set first
breaks down into a large number of well separated clusters. At the freezing
transition, which is in general distinct from the clustering one, some
variables (spins) take the same value in all solutions of a given cluster. In
this paper we study the critical behavior around the freezing transition, which
appears in the unfrozen phase as the divergence of the sizes of the
rearrangements induced in response to the modification of a variable. The
formalism is developed on generic constraint satisfaction problems and applied
in particular to the random satisfiability of boolean formulas and to the
coloring of random graphs. The computation is first performed in random tree
ensembles, for which we underline a connection with percolation models and with
the reconstruction problem of information theory. The validity of these results
for the original random ensembles is then discussed in the framework of the
cavity method.

inputs, namely on the cross sections of the reactions responsible for neutrino
production inside the Solar core. While the flux of solar 8B neutrinos has been
recently measured at Superkamiokande with a 3.5% uncertainty and a precise
measurement of 7Be neutrino flux is foreseen in the next future, the predicted
fluxes are still affected by larger errors. The largest nuclear physics
uncertainty to determine the fluxes of 8B and 7Be neutrinos comes from the
3He(alpha,gamma)7Be reaction. The uncertainty on its S-factor is due to an
average discrepancy in results obtained using two different experimental
approaches: the detection of the delayed gamma rays from 7Be decay and the
measurement of the prompt gamma emission. Here we report on a new high
precision experiment performed with both techniques at the same time. Thanks to
the low background conditions of the Gran Sasso LUNA accelerator facility, the
cross section has been measured at Ecm = 170, 106 and 93 keV, the latter being
the lowest interaction energy ever reached.
The S-factors from the two methods do not show any discrepancy within the
experimental errors. An extrapolated S(0)= 0.560+/-0.017 keV barn is obtained.
Moreover, branching ratios between the two prompt gamma-transitions have been
measured with 5-8% accuracy.

classification and parametrization of unresolved galaxies for Gaia | 10 pages, 12 figures, accepted in A&A | null | 10.1051/0004-6361:20077300 | null | astro-ph | null | Aims:The Gaia astrometric survey mission will, as a consequence of its
scanning law, obtain low resolution optical (330-1000 nm) spectrophotometry of
several million unresolved galaxies brighter than V=22. We present the first
steps in a project to design and implement a classification system for these
data. The goal is both to determine morphological classes and to estimate
intrinsic astrophysical parameters via synthetic templates. Here we describe
(1) a new library of synthetic galaxy spectra, and (2) first results of
classification and parametrization experiments using simulated Gaia
spectrophotometry of this library. Methods:We have created a large grid of
synthetic galaxy spectra using the PEGASE.2 code, which is based on galaxy
evolution models that take into account metallicity evolution, extinction
correction, emission lines (with stellar spectra based on the BaSeL library).
Our classification and regression models are Support Vector Machines (SVMs),
which are kernel-based nonlinear estimators. Results:We produce a basic library
of about 4000 zero redshift galaxy spectra covering the main Hubble types over
wavelength range 250 to 1050 nm at a sampling of 1 nm or less. It is computed
on a regular grid of four key astrophysical parameters for each type and for
intermediate random values of the same parameters. An extended library
reproduces this at a series of redshifts. Initial results from the SVM
classifiers and parametrizers are promising, indicating that Hubble types can
be reliably predicted and several parameters estimated with low bias and
variance. Comparing the colours of our synthetic library with Sloan Digital Sky
Survey (SDSS) spectra we find good agreement over the full range of Hubble
types and parameters.

approach to the electronic structure of strongly correlated materials. This
implementation achieves full self-consistency over the charge density, taking
into account correlation-induced changes to the total charge density and
effective Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian. A linear muffin-tin orbital basis-set is used,
and the charge density is computed from moments of the many body
momentum-distribution matrix. The calculation of the total energy is also
considered, with a proper treatment of high-frequency tails of the Green's
function and self-energy. The method is illustrated on two materials with
well-localized 4f electrons, insulating cerium sesquioxide Ce2O3 and the
gamma-phase of metallic cerium, using the Hubbard-I approximation to the
dynamical mean-field self-energy. The momentum-integrated spectral function and
momentum-resolved dispersion of the Hubbard bands are calculated, as well as
the volume-dependence of the total energy. We show that full self-consistency
over the charge density, taking into account its modification by strong
correlations, can be important for the computation of both thermodynamical and
spectral properties, particularly in the case of the oxide material.

of semiconductor nanocrystals using a tight-binding framework. Extending to the
nanoscale the Hanke and Sham approach [Phys. Rev. B 12, 4501 (1975)] developed
for bulk semiconductors, we show how local field effects can be included in the
study of confined systems. A great advantage of this scheme is that of being
formulated in terms of localized orbitals and thus it requires very few
computational resources and times. Applications to the optical and screening
properties of semiconductor nanocrystals are presented here and discussed.
Results concerning the absorption cross section, the static polarizability and
the screening function of InAs (direct gap) and Si (indirect gap) nanocrystals
compare well to both first principles results and experimental data. We also
show that the present scheme allows us to easily go beyond the continuum
dielectric model, based on the Clausius-Mossotti equation, which is frequently
used to include the nanocrystal surface polarization. Our calculations indicate
that the continuum dielectric model, used in conjunction with a size dependent
dielectric constant, underestimates the nanocrystal polarizability, leading to
exceedingly strong surface polarization fields.

masses and separation (EMS systems) scaled by their mutual Hill's radii. In a
gas-free environment, we find log (T_c/yr) = A+B \log (k_0/2.3). Through a
simple analytical approach, we demonstrate that the evolution of the velocity
dispersion in an EMS system follows a random walk. The stochastic nature of
random-walk diffusion leads to (i) an increasing average eccentricity <e> ~
t^1/2, where t is the time; (ii) Rayleigh-distributed eccentricities
(P(e,t)=e/\sigma^2 \exp(-e^2/(2\sigma^2)) of the protoplanets; (iii) a
power-law dependence of T_c on planetary separation. As evidence for the
chaotic diffusion, the observed eccentricities of known extra solar planets can
be approximated by a Rayleigh distribution. We evaluate the isolation masses of
the embryos, which determine the probability of gas giant formation, as a
function of the dust and gas surface densities.

0705.2166 | Antonio Alfonso-Faus | Antonio Alfonso-Faus | Ultimate Fate of our Universe from Quantum Mechanics | null | null | null | null | physics.gen-ph | null | It is conjectured that time intervals of any kind are proportional to the age
of the Universe taken at the time we are considering the interval. If this is
the case then the speed of light, in fact any speed, must decrease inversely
proportional to this age. The immediate consequence is that energy is not
conserved: the hypothesis that time is a homogeneous property implies
conservation of energy (the theorem of Noether). Nonconservation of energy
follows from the condition that any time interval is proportional to the
cosmological time, and therefore time can not be homogeneous. From the
uncertainty principle, taking the constant of Planck as a real constant, time
independent, it follows that any energy in the Universe decreases linearly with
time. We then prove that Schroedinger equation does not change, except for the
potential energy term. The future of the Universe gives for the wave functions
a long sinusoidal spatial solution, so that everything becomes unlocalized. The
relativistic absolute interval remains the same, even with a changing speed of
light, and the Universe turns out to be nonexpanding. A Mass-Boom effect is
confirmed.

the Interacting Vector Boson Model (IVBM), to the orthosymplectic group
$OSp(2\Omega/12,R)$ is developed in order to incorporate fermion degrees of
freedom into the nuclear dynamics and to encompass the treatment of odd mass
nuclei. The bosonic sector of the supergroup is used to describe the complex
collective spectra of the neighboring even-even nuclei and is considered as a
core structure of the odd nucleus. The fermionic sector is represented by the
fermion spin group $SO^{F}(2\Omega)\supset SU^{F}(2)$.
The so obtained, new exactly solvable limiting case is applied for the
description of the nuclear collective spectra of odd mass nuclei. The
theoretical predictions for different collective bands in three odd mass
nuclei, namely $^{157}Gd$, $^{173}Yb$ and $^{163}Dy$ from rare earth region are
compared with the experiment. The $B(E2)$ transition probabilities for the
$^{157}Gd$ and $^{163}Dy$ between the states of the ground band are also
studied. The important role of the symplectic structure of the model for the
proper reproduction of the $B(E2)$ behavior is revealed. The obtained results
reveal the applicability of the models extension.

Cluster Cl 0024+17 | To appear in the June 1 issue of The Astrophysical Journal | Astrophys.J.661:728-749,2007 | 10.1086/517498 | null | astro-ph | null | We present a comprehensive mass reconstruction of the rich galaxy cluster Cl
0024+17 at z~0.4 from ACS data, unifying both strong- and weak-lensing
constraints. The weak-lensing signal from a dense distribution of background
galaxies (~120 per square arcmin) across the cluster enables the derivation of
a high-resolution parameter-free mass map. The strongly-lensed objects tightly
constrain the mass structure of the cluster inner region on an absolute scale,
breaking the mass-sheet degeneracy. The mass reconstruction of Cl 0024+17
obtained in such a way is remarkable. It reveals a ringlike dark matter
substructure at r~75" surrounding a soft, dense core at r~50". We interpret
this peculiar sub-structure as the result of a high-speed line-of-sight
collision of two massive clusters 1-2 Gyr ago. Such an event is also indicated
by the cluster velocity distribution. Our numerical simulation with purely
collisionless particles demonstrates that such density ripples can arise by
radially expanding, decelerating particles that originally comprised the
pre-collision cores. Cl 0024+17 can be likened to the bullet cluster 1E0657-56,
but viewed $along$ the collision axis at a much later epoch. In addition, we
show that the long-standing mass discrepancy for Cl 0024+17 between X-ray and
lensing can be resolved by treating the cluster X-ray emission as coming from a
superposition of two X-ray systems. The cluster's unusual X-ray surface
brightness profile that requires a two isothermal sphere description supports
this hypothesis.

Tokyo | Journal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres (15/05/2007) in press | null | 10.1029/2006JD007885 | null | physics.ao-ph | null | This paper studies two high-pollution episodes over Greater Tokyo: 9 and 10
December 1999, and 31 July and 1 August 2001. Results obtained with the
chemistry-transport model (CTM) Polair3D are compared to measurements of
inorganic PM2.5. To understand to which extent the aerosol processes modeled in
Polair3D impact simulated inorganic PM2.5, Polair3D is run with different
options in the aerosol module, e.g. with/without heterogeneous reactions. To
quantify the impact of processes outside the aerosol module, simulations are
also done with another CTM (CMAQ). In the winter episode, sulfate is mostly
impacted by condensation, coagulation, long-range transport, and deposition to
a lesser extent. In the summer episode, the effect of long-range transport
largely dominates. The impact of condensation/evaporation is dominant for
ammonium, nitrate and chloride in both episodes. However, the impact of the
thermodynamic equilibrium assumption is limited. The impact of heterogeneous
reactions is large for nitrate and ammonium, and taking heterogeneous reactions
into account appears to be crucial in predicting the peaks of nitrate and
ammonium. The impact of deposition is the same for all inorganic PM2.5. It is
small compared to the impact of other processes although it is not negligible.
The impact of nucleation is negligible in the summer episode, and small in the
winter episode. The impact of coagulation is larger in the winter episode than
in the summer episode, because the number of small particles is higher in the
winter episode as a consequence of nucleation.

consider first a Josephson junction which consists of two S/F bilayers
separated by an insulating layer. We show that for an antiparallel alignment of
the magnetization in the two F layers the Josephson critical current $I_c$
increases with increasing exchange field $h$. The second system we consider is
a S/F structure with a local inhomogeneity of the magnetization in the
ferromagnet near the S/F interface. Due to the proximity effect not only a
singlet but also a triplet component of the superconducting condensate is
induced in the ferromagnet. The latter penetrates over the length
$\sqrt{D/\epsilon}$ ($D$ is the diffusion coefficient and $\epsilon$ the
energy). In the case of temperatures of the order of the Thouless energy this
length is comparable to the length of the ferromagnet. This long-range
penetration leads to a significant increase of the ferromagnet conductance
below the superconducting critical temperature $T_c$. Contrary to the case of
the singlet component, the contribution to the conductance due to the odd
triplet component is not zero at $T = 0$ and $V = 0$ ($V$ is the voltage) and
decays with increasing temperature T in a monotonic way

This formulation is based on the Skinner and Rusk formalism for Lagrangian and
Hamiltonian systems. The corresponding unified formalism developed for optimal
control systems allows us to formulate geometrically the necessary conditions
given by Pontryagin's Maximum Principle, provided that the differentiability
with respect to controls is assumed and the space of controls is open.
Furthermore, our method is also valid for implicit optimal control systems and,
in particular, for the so-called descriptor systems (optimal control problems
including both differential and algebraic equations).

Electron Transistor | 13 pages, 5 figures | null | 10.1038/nphys781 | null | cond-mat.mes-hall cond-mat.str-el | null | The electronic density of states of graphene is equivalent to that of
relativistic electrons. In the absence of disorder or external doping the Fermi
energy lies at the Dirac point where the density of states vanishes. Although
transport measurements at high carrier densities indicate rather high
mobilities, many questions pertaining to disorder remain unanswered. In
particular, it has been argued theoretically, that when the average carrier
density is zero, the inescapable presence of disorder will lead to electron and
hole puddles with equal probability. In this work, we use a scanning single
electron transistor to image the carrier density landscape of graphene in the
vicinity of the neutrality point. Our results clearly show the electron-hole
puddles expected theoretically. In addition, our measurement technique enables
to determine locally the density of states in graphene. In contrast to
previously studied massive two dimensional electron systems, the kinetic
contribution to the density of states accounts quantitatively for the measured
signal. Our results suggests that exchange and correlation effects are either
weak or have canceling contributions.

relevant for the leptogenesis scenario. In particular, they lead to a
time-dependent CP asymmetry which depends upon the previous dynamics of the
system. This memory effect in the CP asymmetry is particularly important in
resonant leptogenesis where the asymmetry is generated by the decays of nearly
mass-degenerate right-handed neutrinos. We study the impact of the nontrivial
time evolution of the CP asymmetry in resonant leptogenesis, both in the
one-flavour case and with flavour effects included. We show that significant
qualitative and quantitative differences arise with respect to the case in
which the time dependence of the CP asymmetry is neglected.

We first recall how these bundles are related to the construction of sextic
nodal surfaces in $\PP^3$ having an even set of 56 nodes (cf. \cite{CaTo}). We
prove that there is an open set, corresponding to the simple bundles with
minimal cohomology, which is irreducible of dimension 19 and bimeromorphic to
an open set $\fA^0$ of the G.I.T. quotient space of the projective space
$\fB:=\{B\in \PP(U^\vee\otimes W\otimes V^\vee)\}$ of triple tensors of type
$(3,3,4)$ by the natural action of $SL(W)\times SL(U)$. We give several
constructions for these bundles, which relate them to cubic surfaces in 3-space
$\PP^3$ and to cubic surfaces in the dual space $(\PP^3)^{\vee}$. One of these
constructions, suggested by Igor Dolgachev, generalizes to other types of
tensors. Moreover, we relate the socalled {\em cross-product involution} for
$(3,3,4)$-tensors, introduced in \cite{CaTo}, with the Schur quadric associated
to a cubic surface in $\PP^3$ and study further properties of this involution.

multiresolution scaling wavelet construction arise from a scale of Hilbert
spaces. We study the theory of representations of the $C^{\ast}$-algebra $%
O_{\nu +1}$ arising from this multiresolution analysis. A connection with
Markov chains and representations of $O_{\nu +1}$ is found. Projection valued
measures arising from the multiresolution analysis give rise to a Markov trace
for quantum groups $SO_q$.

of the Grassmannian, we study six combinatorial Hopf algebras. These Hopf
algebras can be thought of as K-theoretic analogues of the by now classical
``square'' of Hopf algebras consisting of symmetric functions, quasisymmetric
functions, noncommutative symmetric functions and the Malvenuto-Reutenauer Hopf
algebra of permutations. In addition, we develop a theory of set-valued
P-partitions and study three new families of symmetric functions which are
weight generating functions of reverse plane partitions, weak set-valued
tableaux and valued-set tableaux.

Neutrinos | 38 pages, 5 figures | null | null | RUNHETC-04-2007 | hep-ph | null | The existence of neutrino masses strongly suggests that right-handed
neutrinos exist, but the data do not favor any particular scale for the
Majorana mass parameters. Here I explore the possibility that these particles
exist at the electroweak scale along with additional new physics at the TeV
scale . Higher dimension operators involving right-handed neutrinos and the
Higgs boson can introduce new decay modes of the Higgs boson, significantly
modifying its phenomenology if it is light. With minimal flavor violation the
Higgs boson cascade decays to 6 particles containing two highly displaced
vertices. Each displaced vertex produces an odd number of leptons, leading to a
dramatic signature of overall lepton violation at each vertex. I discuss the
limits from the Tevatron, and find that they are close to exploring interesting
regions of parameters, while limiting others. Moving beyond minimal flavor
violation, cascade decays of the Higgs boson into as many as 14 particles can
occur.

supersymmetric description for some supersymmetric field theories where
conventional superfield formalism does not work. This "new" formalism contains
even auxiliary variables in addition to conventional odd super-coordinates. The
idea of this construction is similar to the pure spinor formalism developed by
N.Berkovits. It is demonstrated that using this formalism it is possible to
prove that the certain Chern-Simons-like (Witten's OSFT-like) theory can be
considered as an off-shell version for some on-shell supersymmetric field
theories. We use the simplest non-trivial model found in [2] to illustrate the
power of this pure spinor superfield formalism. Then we redo all the
calculations for the case of 10-dimensional Super-Yang-Mills theory. The
construction of off-shell description for this theory is more subtle in
comparison with the model of [2] and requires additional Z_2 projection. We
discover experimentally (through a direct explicit calculation) a non-trivial
Z_2 duality at the level of Feynman diagrams. The nature of this duality
requires a better investigation.

fast-magnetosonic modes, propagating normal to the magnetic field grow
exponentially and saturated at high values, due to the resistivity. We also
demonstrate that the jeans-like instabilities are enhanced inside a resistive

the growing magnetosonic waves.

dictated by hydrostatic balance in a type II superconducting neutron star with
a barotropic equation of state. Using Lagrangian perturbation theory, we find
the quadrupolar distortions due to such fields for various models of neutron
stars with type II superconducting and normal regions. We find that the star
becomes prolate and can be sufficiently distorted to display precession with a
period of the order of years. We also study the stability of such fields using
an energy principle, which allows us to extend the stability criteria
established by R. J. Tayler for normal conductors to more general media with
magnetic free energy that depends on density and magnetic induction, such as
type II superconductors. We also derive the growth rate and instability
conditions for a specific instability of type II superconductors, first
discussed by P. Muzikar, C. J. Pethick and P. H. Roberts, using a local
analysis based on perturbations around a uniform background.

Giant Branch (post-AGB) stars in globular clusters, Barnard 29 in M 13 and ROA
5701 in omega Cen, have been analysed using model atmosphere techniques. The
optical spectra have been obtained with FEROS on the ESO 2.2-m telescope and
the 2d-Coud\'e spectrograph on the 2.7-m McDonald telescope, while the
ultraviolet observations are from the GHRS on the HST. Abundances of light
elements (C, N, O, Mg, Al and S) plus Fe have been determined from the optical
spectra, while the ultraviolet data provide additional Fe abundance estimates
from Fe III absorption lines in the 1875-1900 {\AA} wavelength region. A
general metal underabundance relative to young B-type stars is found for both
Barnard 29 and ROA 5701. These results are consistent with the metallicities of
the respective clusters, as well as with previous studies of the objects. The
derived abundance patterns suggest that the stars have not undergone a gas-dust
separation, contrary to previous suggestions, although they may have evolved
from the AGB before the onset of the third dredge-up. However, the Fe
abundances derived from the HST spectra are lower than those expected from the
metallicities of the respective clusters, by 0.5 dex for Barnard 29 and 0.8 dex
for ROA 5701. A similar systematic underabundance is also found for other
B-type stars in environments of known metallicity, such as the Magellanic
Clouds. These results indicate that the Fe III ultraviolet lines may yield
abundance values which are systematically too low by typically 0.6 dex and
hence such estimates should be treated with caution.

our basic physical framework. Multiple indicators point toward reassessment of
the principle of locality: lack of a precise definition in quantum gravity,
behavior of high-energy scattering, hints from strings and AdS/CFT, conundrums
of quantum cosmology, and finally lack of good alternative resolutions of the
paradox. A plausible conjecture states that the non-perturbative dynamics of
gravity is unitary but nonlocal. String theory may directly address these
issues but so far important aspects remain elusive. If this viewpoint is
correct, critical questions are to understand the "correspondence" limit where
nonlocal physics reduces to local quantum field theory, and beyond, to unveil
principles of an underlying nonlocal theory.
