a probe to characterize the confining properties of the phase diagram of two
color QCD at finite temperature and density. We obtain evidence for the
disappearing of dual superconductivity (deconfinement) induced by a finite
density of baryonic matter, as well as for a coincidence of this phenomenon
with the restoration of chiral symmetry both at zero and finite density. The
saturation transition induced by Pauli blocking is studied as well, and a
general warning is given about the possible effects that this unphysical
transition could have on the study of the QCD phase diagram at strong values of
the gauge coupling.

Laboratory | 6 pages, 4 figures; talk presented at Neutrino 2006 | null | null | null | nucl-ex | null | One of the options for creating a Deep Underground Science and Engineering
Laboratory (DUSEL) is a site in the Mt. Stuart batholith, a granodiorite and
tonalite rock mass in the Cascade mountain range in Washington State. The
batholith's 100-year history in hard-rock tunneling includes the construction
of the longest and deepest tunnels in the U.S., the parallel Cascade and
Pioneer tunnels. The laboratory plan would utilize these two tunnels to produce
a laboratory that has many desirable features, including dedicated, clean,
horizontal access, container-module transport, and low operations costs.
Various aspects of the site help to reduce geotechnical, environmental, and
safety risks.

the decay obeys a power-law, in contrast to the corresponding exponential decay

imprinted in cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies. The high-energy
physics motivated by superstring theory or M-theory generically yield parity
violating terms, which may produce a circularly polarized gravitational wave
background (GWB) during inflation. In contrast to the standard prediction of
inflation with un-polarized GWB, circularly polarized GWB generates
non-vanishing TB and EB-mode power spectra of CMB anisotropies. We evaluate the
TB and EB-mode power spectra taking into account the secondary effects and
investigate the dependence of cosmological parameters. We then discuss current
constraints on the circularly polarized GWB from large angular scales (l < 16)
of the three year WMAP data. Prospects for future CMB experiments are also
investigated based on a Monte Carlo analysis of parameter estimation, showing
that the circular polarization degree, varepsilon, which is the asymmetry of
the tensor power spectra between right- and left-handed modes normalized by the
total amplitude, can be measured down to |varepsilon| 0.35(r/0.05)^{-0.6}.

is presented including atomic clocks, quasar absorption spectra, and Oklo
natural nuclear reactor data. Assuming linear variation with time we can
compare different results. From the quasar absorption spectra:
$\dot{\mu}/\mu=(1 \pm 3) \times 10^{-16}$ yr$^{-1}$. A combination of this
result and the atomic clock results gives the best limt on variation of
$\alpha$: $\dot{\alpha}/\alpha=(-0.8 \pm 0.8) \times 10^{-16}$ yr$^{-1}$. The
Oklo natural reactor gives the best limit on the variation of
$m_s/\Lambda_{QCD}$ where $m_s$ is the strange quark mass.
Huge enhancement of the relative variation effects happens in transitions
between close atomic, molecular and nuclear energy levels. We suggest several
new cases where the levels are very narrow. Large enhancement of the variation
effects is also possible in cold atomic and molecular collisions near Feshbach
resonance. Massive bodies (stars or galaxies) can also affect physical
constants. They have large scalar charge $S$ proportional to number of
particles which produces a Coulomb-like scalar field $U=S/r$. This leads to a
variation of the fundamental constants proportional to the gravitational
potential, e.g. $\delta \alpha/ \alpha = k_\alpha \delta (GM/ r c^2)$. We
compare different manifestations of this effect.The strongest limit
$k_\alpha +0.17 k_e= (-3.5\pm 6) \times 10^{-7}$.

measure, - (cf.[1])- the algebraic polymorphisms of compact groups. A general
polymorphism is -- by definition -- a many-valued map with invariant measure,
and the conjugate operator of a polymorphism is a Markov operator (i.e., a
positive operator on $L^2$ of norm 1 which preserves the constants). In the
algebraic case a polymorphism is a correspondence in the sense of algebraic
geometry, but here we investigate it from a dynamical point of view. The most
important examples are the algebraic polymorphisms of torus, where we introduce
a parametrization of the semigroup of toral polymorphisms in terms of rational
matrices and describe the spectra of the corresponding Markov operators.

core-corona nanoparticles formed at pH = 3.00, were characterized. Their
molecular weight and radius of gyration were determined by SLS, while their
hydrodynamic radius was determined by dynamic light scattering. Small angle
neutron scattering measurements were used to determine the radius of the

indicated that their size and aggregation number of the nanoparticles, were
smaller when the content of the graft copolymers in neutral PDMAM side chains
was higher. Such particles should be interesting drug delivery candidates, if

Spin density maps illustrate the exchange path via the pyrimidine molecule
which mediates the magnetism in the one-dimensional chain. The computed
exchange coupling is antiferromagnetic and in reasonable agreement with the
experiment. It is suggested that the antiferromagnetic coupling is due to the
possibility of stronger delocalization of the charges on the nitrogen atoms,
compared to the ferromagnetic case. In addition, computed isotropic and
anisotropic hyperfine interaction parameters are compared with recent NMR
experiments.

aspect, we generalize the force calculation of D0-${\bar {\rm D}}$0 of Banks
and Susskind to Dp-${\bar {\rm D}}p$ for $1\le p \leq 8$. In particular, we
find that the force is also divergent for p = 1 while for the other cases ($p
\ge 2$) the forces are in general finite when $Z \to 0^+$, where $Z =
\frac{Y^2}{2\pi^2\alpha'} - 1$ with Y, the brane-antibrane separation. However,
the forces are divergent for all cases when Z < 0, signalling the occurrence of
open string tachyon condensation in this regime. The other deals with the
puzzling static nature of the supergravity brane-antibrane configurations. We
will show that the force on a brane probe due to a brane-antibrane background
vanishes when the probe is placed at the location of the coincident
brane-antibranes, thereby providing a direct evidence for the existence of
general static brane-antibrane configuration in the supergravity approximation.

galaxies provide a new confirmation of buoyant feedback outflow in the hot gas
atmospheres around these galaxies. AGN feedback energy is required to prevent
wholesale cooling and star formation in these group-centered galaxies. In NGC
5044 we observe interstellar (presumably PAH) emission at 8 microns out to
about 5 kpc. Both NGC 5044 and 4636 have extended 70 microns emission from cold
dust exceeding that expected from stellar mass loss. The sputtering lifetime of
this extended dust in the ~1keV interstellar gas, ~10^7 yrs, establishes the
time when the dust first entered the hot gas. Evidently the extended dust
originated in dusty disks or clouds, commonly observed in elliptical galaxy
cores, that were disrupted, heated and buoyantly transported outward. The
surviving central dust in NGC 5044 and 4636 has been disrupted into many small
filaments. It is remarkable that the asymmetrically extended 8 micron emission
in NGC 5044 is spatially coincident with Halpha+[NII] emission from warm gas. A
calculation shows that dust-assisted cooling in buoyant hot gas moving out from
the galactic core can cool within a few kpc in about ~10^7 yrs, explaining the
optical line emission observed. The X-ray images of both galaxies are
disturbed. All timescales for transient activity - restoration of equilibrium
and buoyant transport in the hot gas, dynamics of surviving dust fragments, and
dust sputtering - are consistent with a central release of feedback energy in
both galaxies about 10^7 yrs ago.

important to the investigation of neutrino mass and would have an important
significance for understanding the parity nonconservation in weak interactions.

X-ray Pulsar | Accepted by ApJ Letters with minor changes | null | 10.1086/522047 | null | astro-ph | null | Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) belong to a class of neutron stars believed to
harbor the strongest magnetic fields in the universe, as indicated by their
energetic bursts and their rapid spindowns. However, an unambiguous measurement
of their surface field strengths has not been made to date. It is also not
known whether AXP outbursts result from changes in the neutron star magnetic
field or crust properties. Here we report a spectroscopic measurement of the
surface magnetic field strength of an AXP, XTE J1810$-$197, and solidify its
magnetar nature. The field strength obtained from detailed spectral analysis
and modeling, B = (2.72$\pm$0.03)$\times10^{14}$ G, is remarkably close to the
value inferred from the rate of spindown of this source and remains nearly
constant during numerous observations spanning over an order of magnitude in
source flux. The surface temperature, on the other hand, declines steadily and
dramatically following the 2003 outburst of this source. Our findings
demonstrate that heating occurs in the upper neutron star crust during an
outburst and sheds light on the transient behaviour of AXPs.

isolated neutron star (XDINS) 1RXS J214303.7+065419 (also known as RBS 1774).
The X-ray observation was performed with the High Resolution Camera on board of
the Chandra X-ray Observatory, allowing us to derive the most accurate position
for this source (alpha = 21h43m3.38s, delta= +6deg54'17".53; 90% uncertainty of
0."6). Furthermore, we confirmed with a higher spatial accuracy the point-like
nature of this X-ray source. Optical and infrared observations were taken in B,
V, r', i', J, H and Ks filters using the Keck, VLT, Blanco and Magellan
telescopes, while radio observations were obtained from the ATNF Parkes single
dish at 2.9GHz and 708MHz. No plausible optical and/or infrared counterpart for
RBS 1774 was detected within the refined sub-arsecond Chandra X-ray error
circle. Present upper limits to the optical and infrared magnitudes are r'>25.7
and J>22.6 (5 sigma confidence level). Radio observations did not show evidence
for radio pulsations down to a luminosity at 1.4 GHz of L < 0.02 mJy kpc^2, the
deepest limit up to date for any XDINS, and lower than what expected for the
majority of radio pulsars. We can hence conclude that, if RBS 1774 is active as
radio pulsar, its non detection is more probably due to a geometrical bias
rather than to a luminosity bias. Furthermore, no convincing evidence for
RRAT-like radio bursts have been found. Our results on RBS 1774 are discussed
and compared with the known properties of other thermally emitting neutron
stars and of the radio pulsar population.

out of a cusp-shaped parabolic potential well which are driven by thermal,
fractional Gaussian noise with a $1/\omega^{1-\alpha}$ power spectrum. This
long-standing challenge becomes mathematically tractable by use of a
generalized Langevin dynamics via its corresponding non-Markovian,
time-convolutionless master equation: We find that the escape is governed
asymptotically by a power law whose exponent depends exponentially on the ratio
of barrier height and temperature. This result is in distinct contrast to a
description with a corresponding subdiffusive fractional Fokker-Planck
approach; thus providing experimentalists an amenable testbed to differentiate
between the two escape scenarios.

All event topologies involving isolated electrons, photons, muons, neutrinos

Events are assigned to exclusive classes according to their final state. A
statistical algorithm is used to search for deviations from the Standard Model

0705.3722 | Luis L. Sanchez. Soto | R. Alvargonzalez and L. S. Soto | Zero-point radiation and the Big Bang | Some typos fixed | null | null | null | physics.gen-ph | null | This paper develops a cosmological hypothesis based on the following
propositions:
1. Zero-point radiation derives from quantic fluctuations in space, and the
wavelength of its photons with the greatest energy is inversely proportional to
the curvature of space.
2. The Universe began as the breaking in of photons of extremely high energy
contained in the 3-dimensional surface: $w^2+x^2+y^2+z^2=R^2_i$, whose radius
has continued to expand at the speed of ligth since its origin at $t=0$.
3. The wavelength of the photons is quantized and the quantum of wavelength
is invariable.
These propositions imply that the value of the total energy of the zero-point
radiation in the Universe remains constant and the condition $w^2 + x^2 + y^2 +
z^2 = (R_i + ct)^2 = R_u^2$ determines that every point in our space is subject
to a tension whose intensity $i$ is proportional to the curvature $1/R_u$. Any
increase of $R_u$ implies a decrease in $i$ and consequently an energy flow
which translates into an expansive force. Therefore, the Universe will expand
indefinitely: no Big Crunch is possible. If the initial radius of the Universe
$R_i$ has been smaller than the Schwarzschild radius, $R_s$, which corresponds
to the total mass of the Universe, $M_u$, the generation of matter would have
lasted for thousands of millions of years. Generation of matter over short
periods would have required values for $R_i$ of thousands of millions of light
years.

dynamical reaction of the accelerated particles as well as the amplification of
the turbulent magnetic field as due to streaming instability. The latter does
in turn affect the maximum achievable momentum and thereby the acceleration
process itself, in a chain of causality which is typical of non-linear systems.
Here we provide a technical description of two of these kinetic approaches and
show that they basically lead to the same conclusions. In particular we discuss
the effects of shock modification on the spectral shape of the accelerated
particles, on the maximum momentum, on the thermodynamic properties of the
background fluid and on the escaping and advected fluxes of accelerated
particles.

model that includes some important factors such as external periodic forces,

phytoplankton-zooplankton system is from the original study by Scheffer [M
Scheffer, Fish and nutrients interplay determines algal biomass: a minimal
model, Oikos \textbf{62} (1991) 271-282]. Our results show that the spatially
extended system exhibit a resonant patterns and frequency-locking phenomena.
The system also shows that the noise and the external periodic forces play a
constructive role in the Scheffer's model: first, the noise can enhance the
oscillation of phytoplankton species' density and format a large clusters in
the space when the noise intensity is within certain interval. Second, the
external periodic forces can induce 4:1 and 1:1 frequency-locking and spatially
homogeneous oscillation phenomena to appear. Finally, the resonant patterns are
observed in the system when the spatial noises and external periodic forces are
both turned on. Moreover, we found that the 4:1 frequency-locking transform
into 1:1 frequency-locking when the noise intensity increased. In addition to
elucidating our results outside the domain of Turing instability, we provide
further analysis of Turing linear stability with the help of the numerical
calculation by using the Maple software. Significantly, oscillations are
enhanced in the system when the noise term presents. These results indicate
that the oceanic plankton bloom may partly due to interplay between the
stochastic factors and external forces instead of deterministic factors. These
results also may help us to understand the effects arising from undeniable
subject to random fluctuations in oceanic plankton bloom.

In particular we present the chemical study we have carried out towards the IM

and provides important hints to understand the dependence of the hot core
chemistry on the stellar luminosity. We also present our high angular
resolution (0.3") images of the borderline Class 0-Class I object IC1396 N.
These images trace the warm region of this IM protostar with unprecedent detail
(0.3"\sim200 AU at the distance of IC1396 N) and provide the first detection of
a cluster of IM hot cores. Finally, we present our interferometric continuum
and spectroscopic images of the disk around the Herbig Be star R Mon. We have
determined the kinematics and physical structure of the disk associated with
this B0 star. The low spectral index derived from the dust emission as well as
the flat geometry of the disk suggest a more rapid evolution of the disks
associated with massive stars. In the Discussion, we dare to propose a possible
evolutionary sequence for the warm circumstellar material around IM stars.

model to account for shear banding behaviour in granular flow. We formulate a
general approach based on two function of the solid fraction to be determined.
Studying the vertical chute flow, we show that shear band thickness is always
independent from flowrate in the quasistatic limit, for Coulomb wall boundary
conditions. The effect of bin width is addressed using the functions developed
by Pouliquen and coworkers, predicting a linear dependence of shear band
thickness by channel width, while literature reports contrasting data. We also
discuss the influence of wall roughness on shear bands. Through a Coulomb wall
friction criterion we show that our model correctly predicts the effect of
increasing wall roughness on the thickness of shear bands. Then a simple
mixing-length approach to steady granular flows can be useful and
representative of a number of original features of granular flow.

follow the unified scheme of Burgasser et al. (2006). We have found 6 new

the T7.5 and T8.5 dwarfs are probably within 25 pc of the Sun. We conclude with
a discussion of the number of T dwarfs expected after completion of the LAS,
comparing these initial results to theoretical simulations.

the adjustment of thickness of the quantum well may cause a transition of Berry
phase in two-dimensional hole gas. Correspondingly, the jump of spin Hall
conductivity accompanies the change of the Berry phase. This property is robust
against the impurity potentials in the system. Experimental detection of this
topological quantum phase transition is discussed.

and energy conserving collisions | This June 21 version contains a new theorem significantly extending
the scope of the results, and more eplanation of how the method works | null | null | null | math-ph math.FA math.MP | null | The Kac model describes the local evolution of a gas of $N$ particles with
three dimensional velocities by a random walk in which the steps correspond to
binary collisions that conserve momentum as well as energy. The state space of
this walk is a sphere of dimension $3N - 4$. The Kac conjecture concerns the
spectral gap in the one step transition operator $Q$ for this walk. In this
paper, we compute the exact spectral gap.
As in previous work by Carlen, Carvalho and Loss where a lower bound on the
spectral gap was proved, we use a method that relates the spectral properties
of $Q$ to the spectral properties of a simpler operator $P$, which is simply an
average of certain non commuting projections. The new feature is that we show
how to use a knowledge of certain eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of $P$ to
determine spectral properties of $Q$, instead of simply using the spectral gap
for $P$ to bound the spectral gap for $Q$, inductively in $N$, as in previous
work. The methods developed here can be applied to many other high--dimensional
stochastic process, as we shall explain.
We also use some deep results on Jacobi polynomials to obtain the required
spectral information on $P$, and we show how the identity through which Jacobi
polynomials enter our problem may be used to obtain new bounds on Jacobi
polynomials.

substrate step is assumed. Edge molecules detach more to the higher terrace
than to the lower terrace. The island edge from which molecules are easy to
detach is smooth and the one hard to detach is dendritic. If islands are close
to each other, islands tend to align in a line, since detached molecules from
the smooth edge of the right island are fed to the dendritic and fast growing
edge of the left island.

the characteristic relaxation time $\tau$ is found to diverge as the cluster
volume reaches the percolation limit. Applying the mean field theory of
continuum percolation, the familiar Vogel-Fulcher equation for the temperature
dependence of $\tau$ is derived.

the DN flux at the top of the target has been estimated to be of the same order
of magnitude as the prompt neutron flux. Given the strong model-dependence of
DN predictions, the measurement of DN contribution to the total neutron
activity at the top of the target was thus desired. Moreover, this measurement
is complementary to the DN experiments performed at PNPI (Gatchina) on solid
lead and bismuth targets. The DN measurement at MEGAPIE was performed during
the start-up phase of the target. In this paper we present a detailed
description of the experimental setup and some preliminary results on decay
spectra.

gauge theory is strongly correlated with extrinsic and internal curvatures of
the vortex surface and that this correlation persists in the continuum limit.
Thus a good approximation for the effective vortex action is the action of
rigid strings, which can reproduce some of the observed geometric properties of
center vortices. It is conjectured that rigidity may be induced by some fields
localized on vortices, and a model-independent test of localization is
performed. Monopoles detected in the Abelian projection are discussed as
natural candidates for such two-dimensional fields.

corresponding Ramsey fringes and the quantum projection noise which,
essentially unaffected by the interactions, remains that for ideal Bosons. The
dual system of this gas, an ideal gas of two-level Fermions coupled by the
interaction with the separated fields, produces the same fringes and noise
fluctuations. The cases of time-separated and spatially-separated fields are
studied. For spatially separated fields the fringes may be broadened slightly
by increasing the number of particles, but only for large particle numbers far
from present experiments with Tonks-Girardeau gases. The uncertainty in the
determination of the atomic transition frequency diminishes, essentially with
the inverse root of the particle number.

that is frequently overlooked in high level physics courses. For example,
radial tidal compression can emerge in extended stellar systems containing a
smaller stellar cluster. For particular conditions the tidal field produced by
this extended mass distribution can exert on the cluster it contains
compressive effects instead of the common disruptive forces. This interesting
aspect of gravity can be derived from standard relations given in many
textbooks and introductory courses in astronomy and can serve as an opportunity
to look closer at some aspects of gravitational physics, stellar dynamics, and
differential geometry. The existence of compressive tides at the center of huge
stellar systems might suggest new evolutionary scenarios for the formation of
stars and primordial galactic formation processes.

of a related work is added | null | null | null | cs.DM cs.CC | null | Being motivated by John Tantalo's Planarity Game, we consider straight line
plane drawings of a planar graph $G$ with edge crossings and wonder how
obfuscated such drawings can be. We define $obf(G)$, the obfuscation complexity
of $G$, to be the maximum number of edge crossings in a drawing of $G$.
Relating $obf(G)$ to the distribution of vertex degrees in $G$, we show an
efficient way of constructing a drawing of $G$ with at least $obf(G)/3$ edge
crossings. We prove bounds $(\delta(G)^2/24-o(1))n^2 < \obf G <3 n^2$ for an
$n$-vertex planar graph $G$ with minimum vertex degree $\delta(G)\ge 2$.
The shift complexity of $G$, denoted by $shift(G)$, is the minimum number of
vertex shifts sufficient to eliminate all edge crossings in an arbitrarily
obfuscated drawing of $G$ (after shifting a vertex, all incident edges are
supposed to be redrawn correspondingly). If $\delta(G)\ge 3$, then $shift(G)$
is linear in the number of vertices due to the known fact that the matching
number of $G$ is linear. However, in the case $\delta(G)\ge2$ we notice that
$shift(G)$ can be linear even if the matching number is bounded. As for
computational complexity, we show that, given a drawing $D$ of a planar graph,
it is NP-hard to find an optimum sequence of shifts making $D$ crossing-free.

magnetized magnetic nano-contact, besides a quasi-linear propagating
("Slonczewski") spin wave mode, can also support a nonlinear self-localized
spin wave "bullet" mode that exists in a much wider range of bias currents. The
frequency of the "bullet" mode lies below the spectrum of linear propagating
spin waves, which makes this mode evanescent and determines its spatial
localization. The threshold current for the excitation of the self-localized
"bullet" is substantially lower than for the linear propagating mode, but
finite-amplitude initial perturbations of magnetization are necessary to
generate a "bullet" in our numerical simulations, where thermal fluctuations
are neglected. Consequently, in these simulations the hysteretic switching
between the propagating and localized spin wave modes is found when the bias
current is varied.

bounded treewidth matrices | 14 pages | null | null | null | cs.DM cs.CC | null | Valiant introduced some 25 years ago an algebraic model of computation along
with the complexity classes VP and VNP, which can be viewed as analogues of the
classical classes P and NP. They are defined using non-uniform sequences of
arithmetic circuits and provides a framework to study the complexity for
sequences of polynomials. Prominent examples of difficult (that is,
VNP-complete) problems in this model includes the permanent and hamiltonian
polynomials. While the permanent and hamiltonian polynomials in general are
difficult to evaluate, there have been research on which special cases of these
polynomials admits efficient evaluation. For instance, Barvinok has shown that
if the underlying matrix has bounded rank, both the permanent and the
hamiltonian polynomials can be evaluated in polynomial time, and thus are in
VP. Courcelle, Makowsky and Rotics have shown that for matrices of bounded
treewidth several difficult problems (including evaluating the permanent and
hamiltonian polynomials) can be solved efficiently. An earlier result of this
flavour is Kasteleyn's theorem which states that the sum of weights of perfect
matchings of a planar graph can be computed in polynomial time, and thus is in
VP also. For general graphs this problem is VNP-complete. In this paper we
investigate the expressive power of the above results. We show that the
permanent and hamiltonian polynomials for matrices of bounded treewidth both
are equivalent to arithmetic formulas. Also, arithmetic weakly skew circuits
are shown to be equivalent to the sum of weights of perfect matchings of planar
graphs.

that the subset of invariant stability conditions embeds as a closed
submanifold into the stability manifold of the equivariant derived category. As
an application we examine stability conditions on Kummer and Enriques surfaces
and we improve the derived version of the Torelli Theorem for the latter
surfaces already present in the litterature. We also study the relationship
between stability conditions on projective spaces and those on their canonical

Neptune (Gl 581b) and two super-Earths (Gl 581c and Gl 581d). The habitability
of this system with respect to the super-Earths is investigated following a
concept that studies the long-term possibility of photosynthetic biomass
production on a dynamically active planet. Methods: A thermal evolution model
for a super-Earth is used to calculate the sources and sinks of atmospheric
carbon dioxide. The habitable zone is determined by the limits of biological
productivity on the planetary surface. Models with different ratios of land /
ocean coverage are investigated. Results: The super-Earth Gl 581c is clearly
outside the habitable zone, since it is too close to the star. In contrast, Gl
581d is a tidally locked habitable super-Earth near the outer edge of the
habitable zone. Despite the adverse conditions on this planet, at least some
primitive forms of life may be able to exist on its surface.Therefore, Gl 581d
is an interesting target for the planned TPF/Darwin missions to search for
biomarkers in planetary atmospheres.

subthreshold membrane potential (Vm) activity. The power spectral density (PSD)
of the Vm displays a power-law structure at high frequencies (>50 Hz) with a
slope of about -2.5. This type of frequency scaling cannot be accounted for by
traditional models, as either single-compartment models or models based on
reconstructed cell morphologies display a frequency scaling with a slope close
to -4. This slope is due to the fact that the membrane resistance is
"short-circuited" by the capacitance for high frequencies, a situation which
may not be realistic. Here, we integrate non-ideal capacitors in cable
equations to reflect the fact that the capacitance cannot be charged
instantaneously. We show that the resulting "non-ideal" cable model can be
solved analytically using Fourier transforms. Numerical simulations using a
ball-and-stick model yield membrane potential activity with similar frequency
scaling as in the experiments. We also discuss the consequences of using
non-ideal capacitors on other cellular properties such as the transmission of
high frequencies, which is boosted in non-ideal cables, or voltage attenuation
in dendrites. These results suggest that cable equations based on non-ideal
capacitors should be used to capture the behavior of neuronal membranes at high
frequencies.

many-body systems. In particular, we consider standard harmonic and spin-1/2
chains, at thermal equilibrium and characterized by few interaction parameters.
The existence of bound entanglement is addressed by calculating explicitly the
negativity of entanglement for different partitions. This allows to individuate
a range of temperatures for which no entanglement can be distilled by means of
local operations, despite the system being globally entangled. We discuss how
the appearance of bound entanglement can be linked to entanglement-area laws,
typical of these systems. Various types of interactions and topologies are
explored, showing that the presence of bound entanglement is an intrinsic
feature of these systems. In the harmonic case, we analytically prove that
thermal bound entanglement persists for systems composed by an arbitrary number
of particles. Our results strongly suggest the existence of bound entangled
states in the macroscopic limit also for spin-1/2 systems.

galactic interstellar medium, and represent the most accessible sites where
stars like our Sun are currently being born. In this review we discuss recent
progress in their study, including the newly discovered infrared dark clouds
that are likely precursors to stellar clusters. At large scales, dark clouds
present filamentary mass distributions with motions dominated by supersonic
turbulence. At small, sub-parsec scales, a population of subsonic starless
cores provides a unique glimpse of the conditions prior to stellar birth.
Recent studies of starless cores reveal a combination of simple physical
properties together with a complex chemical structure dominated by the
freeze-out of molecules onto cold dust grains. Elucidating this combined
structure is both an observational and theoretical challenge whose solution
will bring us closer to understanding how molecular gas condenses to form
stars.

A 76, 053623 (2007) | 10.1103/PhysRevA.76.053623 | null | cond-mat.dis-nn | null | Bose-Einstein-condensed gases in external spatially random potentials are
considered in the frame of a stochastic self-consistent mean-field approach.
This method permits the treatment of the system properties for the whole range
of the interaction strength, from zero to infinity, as well as for arbitrarily
strong disorder. Besides a condensate and superfluid density, a glassy number
density due to a spatially inhomogeneous component of the condensate occurs.
For very weak interactions and sufficiently strong disorder, the superfluid
fraction can become smaller than the condensate fraction, while at relatively
strong interactions, the superfluid fraction is larger than the condensate
fraction for any strength of disorder. The condensate and superfluid fractions,
and the glassy fraction always coexist, being together either nonzero or zero.
In the presence of disorder, the condensate fraction becomes a nonmonotonic
function of the interaction strength, displaying an antidepletion effect caused
by the competition between the stabilizing role of the atomic interaction and
the destabilizing role of the disorder. With increasing disorder, the
condensate and superfluid fractions jump to zero at a critical value of the
disorder parameter by a first-order phase transition.

has been made with the ZEUS detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 300--318 GeV
using an integrated luminosity of 120 pb-1. The measurement was performed in
the central rapidity region for transverse momentum per unit of mass in the
range 0.3<p_T/M<0.7. The particle rates have been extracted and interpreted in
terms of the coalescence model. The (anti)deuteron production yield is smaller
than the (anti)proton yield by approximately three orders of magnitude,
consistent with the world measurements.

Resta, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 74}, 024408 (2006)]: it is given in terms of a
Brillouin-zone integral, which is discretized on a reciprocal-space mesh for
numerical implementation. We find here the single ${\bf k}$-point limit, useful
for large enough supercells, and particularly in the framework of
Car-Parrinello simulations for noncrystalline systems. We validate our formula
on the test case of a crystalline system, where the supercell is chosen as a
large multiple of the elementary cell. We also show that--somewhat
counterintuitively--even the Chern number (in 2d) can be evaluated using a
single Hamiltonian diagonalization.

equation on an $(n-1)$-manifold $\Sigma$, the time variable of which shall be
denoted by $r$. Given a function $R$ on $[r_0,r_1)\times\Sigma$ and a family of
metrics $\gamma(r)$ on $\Sigma$, when the coefficients of this equation are
appropriately defined in terms of $\gamma$ and $R$, positive solutions give
metrics of prescribed scalar curvature $R$ on $[r_0,r_1)\times\Sigma$ in the
form \[ g=u^2dr^2+r^2\gamma.\] If the area element of $r^2\gamma$ is expanding
for increasing $r$, then the equation is parabolic, and the basic existence
problem is to take positive initial data at some $r=r_0$ and solve for $u$ on
the maximal interval of existence, which above was implicitly assumed to be
$I=[r_0,r_1)$; one often hopes that $r_1=\infty$. However, the case of greatest
physical interest, $R>0$, often leads to blow-up in finite time so that
$r_1<\infty$. It is the purpose of the present work to investigate the
situation in which the blow-up nonetheless occurs in such a way that $g$ is
continuously extendible to $\bar M=[r_0,r_1]\times\Sigma$ as a manifold with
totally geodesic outer boundary at $r=r_1$.

MgB2 single crystal in the vicinity of the zero field transition temperature,
T_c=38.83 K, at several magnetic fields up to 300 Oe, applied along the c-axis.
Though MgB2 is a two gap superconductor our scaling analysis uncovers
remarkable consistency with 3D-xy critical behavior, revealing that close to
criticality the order parameter is a single complex scalar as in 4He. This
opens up the window onto the exploration of the magnetic field induced finite
size effect, whereupon the correlation length transverse to the applied
magnetic field H_i applied along the i-axis cannot grow beyond the limiting
magnetic length L_Hi, related to the average distance between vortex lines. We
find unambiguous evidence for this finite size effect. It implies that in type
II superconductors, such as MgB2, there is the 3D to 1D crossover line H_pi and
xi denotes the critical amplitudes of the correlation lengths above and below
T_c along the respective axis. Consequently, above H_pi(T) and T<T_c
superconductivity is confined to cylinders with diameter L_Hi (1D). In
contrast, above T_c the uncondensed pairs are confined to cylinders.
Accordingly, there is no continuous phase transition in the (H,T)-plane along
the H_c2-lines as predicted by the mean-field treatment.

emergence of magnetic field onto the solar surface. They lie at the border
between tiny magnetic elements and larger sunspots. Light bridges, in such
structures, are bright features separating umbral areas in two or more
irregular regions. Commonly, light bridges indicate that a the merging of
magnetic regions or, conversely, the breakup of the area is underway. We
investigate the velocity structure of a solar pore (AR10812) with light bridge,
and of the quiet solar photosphere nearby, analyzing high spatial and spectral
resolution images. The pore area has been observed with the Interferometric
BI-dimensional Spectrometer (IBIS) at the Dunn Solar Telescope, acquiring
monochromatic images in the Ca II 854.2 nm line and in the Fe I 709.0 nm line
as well as G-band and broad-band images. We also computed the Line of Sight
(LoS) velocity field associated to the Fe I and Fe II photospheric lines. The
amplitude of the LoS velocity fluctuations, inside the pore, is smaller than
that observed in the quiet granulation near the active region. We computed the
azimuthal average LoS velocity and derived its radial profile. The whole pore
is characterized by a downward velocity -200 m/s and by an annular downflow
structure with an average velocity of -350 m/s with respect to the nearby quiet
sun. The light bridge inside the pore, when observed in the broad-band channel
of IBIS and in the red wing of Ca II 854.2 nm line, shows an elongated dark
structure running along its axis, that we explain with a semi-analytical model.
In the highest resolution LoS velocity images the light bridge shows a profile
consistent with a convective roll: a weak upflow, 50-100m/s, in correspondence
of the dark lane, flanked by a downflow, -(200-300) m/s.

several types of finite spin chains, including chains with isotropic Heisenberg

constants. We evaluate quantitatively both the interference corresponding to
the propagation of the entire chain, and the interference in the effective
propagation of the first and last spins only, treating the rest of the chain as
black box. We show that perfect quantum state transfer is possible without
quantum interference, and provide evidence that the spin chains examined
realize interference-free quantum state transfer to a good approximation.

through the metagalactic radiation field can convert into electron-positron
pairs in photon-photon collisions. The converted gamma-rays initiate
electromagnetic cascades driven by inverse-Compton scattering off the microwave
background photons. Using a model for the time-dependent metagalactic radiation
field consistent with all currently available far-infrared-to-optical data, we
calculate the cascade contribution from faint, unresolved high- and low-peaked
blazars to the extragalactic gamma-ray background as measured by EGRET. For
low-peaked blazars, we adopt a spectral index consistent with the mean spectral
index of EGRET detected blazars, and the luminosity function determined by
Chiang and Mukherjee (1998). For high-peaked blazars, we adopt template spectra
matching prototype sources observed with air-Cherenkov telescopes up to 30 TeV,
and a luminosity function based on X-ray measurements. The low number of about
20 for nearby high-peaked blazars with a flux exceeding 10^-11 cm^-2 s^-1 above
300 GeV inferred from the luminosity function is consistent with the results
from air-Cherenkov telescope observations. Including the cascade emission from
higher redshifts, the total high-peaked blazar contribution to the observed
gamma-ray background at GeV energies can account up to about 30.

Lett. 99, 130403 (2007) | 10.1103/PhysRevLett.99.130403 | null | quant-ph | null | The Stern-Gerlach effect is well-known as spin-dependent splitting of a beam
of atoms with magnetic moments by a magnetic-field gradient. Here, we show that
an induced gauge potential may lead to a similar effect for chiral molecules.
In the presence of three inhomogeneous light fields, the center-of-mass of a
three-level chiral molecule is subject to an optically induced gauge potential,
and the internal dynamics of the molecules can be described as an adiabatic
evolution in the reduced pseudo-spin subspace of the two lowest energy levels.
We demonstrate numerically that such an induced gauge potential can lead to
observable pseudo-spin dependent and chirality-dependent generalized
Stern-Gerlach effects for mixed left- and right-handed chiral molecules under
realistic conditions.

potential tends to the non-screened Coulomb potential ; in this small screening
limit, or Coulomb limit, the potential is long ranged. As it is well known in
computer simulation, a simple truncation of the long ranged potential and the
minimum image convention are insufficient to obtain accurate numerical data on
systems. The Ewald method for bulk systems, i.e. with periodic boundary
conditions in all three directions of the space, has already been derived for
Yukawa potential [cf. Y., Rosenfeld, {\it Mol. Phys.}, \bm{88}, 1357, (1996)

sums have only recently been obtained [M., Mazars, {\it J. Chem. Phys.}, {\bf

the b-quark mass problem of supersymmetric grand unified models with exact
Yukawa unification and universal boundary conditions and leads to the so-called
new shifted hybrid inflationary scenario. We show that this model can also lead
to a new version of smooth hybrid inflation based only on renormalizable
interactions provided that a particular parameter of its superpotential is
somewhat small. The potential possesses valleys of minima with classical
inclination, which can be used as inflationary paths. The model is consistent
with the fitting of the three-year Wilkinson microwave anisotropy probe data by
the standard power-law cosmological model with cold dark matter and a
cosmological constant. In particular, the spectral index turns out to be
adequately small so that it is compatible with the data. Moreover, the
Pati-Salam gauge group is broken to the standard model gauge group during
inflation and, thus, no monopoles are formed at the end of inflation.
Supergravity corrections based on a non-minimal Kaehler potential with a
convenient choice of a sign keep the spectral index comfortably within the
allowed range without generating maxima and minima of the potential on the
inflationary path. So, unnatural restrictions on the initial conditions for
inflation can be avoided.

generators typically of quadratic growth in the control variable. A measure
solution of such a BSDE will be understood as a probability measure under which
the generator is seen as vanishing, so that the classical solution can be
reconstructed by a combination of the operations of conditioning and using
martingale representations. In case the terminal condition is bounded and the
generator fulfills the usual continuity and boundedness conditions, we show
that measure solutions with equivalent measures just reinterpret classical
ones. In case of terminal conditions that have only exponentially bounded
moments, we discuss a series of examples which show that in case of
non-uniqueness classical solutions that fail to be measure solutions can
coexists with different measure solutions.

compactification of 11-dimensional Einstein gravity on a 7D elliptic twisted
torus, which has the attractive features of giving rise to a positive
semi-definite potential, and partially fixing the moduli. This compactification
is therefore relevant for low energy M-theory, 11D supergravity. We find that
slow-roll inflation with the moduli is not possible, but that there is a novel
scaling solution in Friedmann cosmologies in which the massive moduli oscillate
but maintain a constant energy density relative to the background barotropic
fluid.

0705.3790 | Arnold Neumaier | Arnold Neumaier | On the foundations of thermodynamics | 78 pages | null | null | null | cond-mat.stat-mech | null | On the basis of new, concise foundations, this paper establishes the four
laws of thermodynamics, the Maxwell relations, and the stability requirements
for response functions, in a form applicable to global (homogeneous), local
(hydrodynamic) and microlocal (kinetic) equilibrium.
The present, self-contained treatment needs very little formal machinery and
stays very close to the formulas as they are applied by the practicing
physicist, chemist, or engineer. From a few basic assumptions, the full
structure of phenomenological thermodynamics and of classical and quantum
statistical mechanics is recovered.
Care has been taken to keep the foundations free of subjective aspects (which
traditionally creep in through information or probability). One might describe
the paper as a uniform treatment of the nondynamical part of classical and
quantum statistical mechanics ``without statistics'' (i.e., suitable for the
definite descriptions of single objects) and ``without mechanics'' (i.e.,
independent of microscopic assumptions). When enriched by the traditional
examples and applications, this paper may serve as the basis for a course on
thermal physics.

properties. In this work, we highlight these differences for specific one
dimensional models of interacting lattice fermions using numerical exact
diagonalization. We calculate the finite temperature adiabatic stiffness (or
Drude weight) and isothermal stiffness (or ``Meissner'' stiffness) in
electrical and thermal transport and also compute the complete momentum and
frequency dependent dynamical conductivities $\sigma(q,\omega)$ and
$\kappa(q,\omega)$. The Meissner stiffness goes to zero rapidly with system
size for both integrable and non-integrable systems. The Drude weight shows
signs of diffusion in the non-integrable system and ballistic behavior in the
integrable system. The dynamical conductivities are also consistent with
ballistic and diffusive behavior in the integrable and non-integrable systems
respectively.

H2O masers in the Orion KL region with VERA (VLBI Exploration of Radio
Astrometry). With the VERA dual-beam receiving system, we have carried out
phase-referencing VLBI astrometry and successfully detected an annual parallax
of Orion KL to be 2.29+/-0.10 mas, corresponding to the distance of 437+/-19 pc
from the Sun. The distance to Orion KL is determined for the first time with
the annual parallax method in these observations. Although this value is
consistent with that of the previously reported, 480+/-80 pc, which is
estimated from the statistical parallax method using proper motions and radial
velocities of the H2O maser features, our new results provide the much more
accurate value with an uncertainty of only 4%. In addition to the annual
parallax, we have detected an absolute proper motion of the maser feature,
suggesting an outflow motion powered by the radio source I along with the
systematic motion of source I itself.

A 75, 060102(R) (2007) | 10.1103/PhysRevA.75.060102 | null | physics.atom-ph physics.gen-ph | null | The Casimir force, which results from the confinement of the quantum
mechanical zero-point fluctuations of the electromagnetic fields, has received
significant attention in recent years for its effect on micro- and nano-scale
mechanical systems. With few exceptions, experimental observations have been
limited to conductive bodies interacting separated by vacuum or air. However,
interesting phenomena including repulsive forces are expected to exist in
certain circumstances between metals and dielectrics when the intervening
medium is not vacuum. In order to better understand the effect of the Casimir
force in such situations and to test the robustness of the generalized
Casimir-Lifshitz theory, we have performed the first precision measurements of
the Casimir force between two metals immersed in a fluid. For this situation,
the measured force is attractive and is approximately 80% smaller than the
force predicted by Casimir for ideal metals in vacuum. We present experimental
results and find them to be consistent with Lifshitz's theory.

D | Phys.Rev.D76:044027,2007 | 10.1103/PhysRevD.76.044027 | null | gr-qc astro-ph hep-ph | null | We consider the cosmology where some function f(G) of the Gauss-Bonnet term G
is added to the gravitational action to account for the late-time accelerating
expansion of the universe. The covariant and gauge invariant perturbation
equations are derived with a method which could also be applied to general
f(R,R^abR_ab,R^abcdR_abcd) gravitational theories. It is pointed out that,
despite their fourth-order character, such f(G) gravity models generally cannot
reproduce arbitrary background cosmic evolutions; for example, the standard
LCDM paradigm with Omega_DE = 0.76 cannot be realized in f(G) gravity theories
unless f is a true cosmological constant because it imposes exclusionary
constraints on the form of f(G). We analyze the perturbation equations and find
that, as in f(R) model, the stability of early-time perturbation growth puts
some constraints on the functional form of f(G), in this case d^2 f/d G^2 < 0.
Furthermore, the stability of small-scale perturbations also requires that f
not deviate significantly from a constant. These analyses are illustrated by
numerically propagating the perturbation equations with a specific model
reproducing a representative LCDM cosmic history. Our results show how the f(G)
models are highly constrained by cosmological data.

of Spiral Bending Waves at a Nearby Gap Edge | 31 pages, 8 figures | Astrophys.J.665:856-865,2007 | 10.1086/519275 | null | astro-ph | null | The secular perturbations exerted by an inclined satellite orbiting in a gap
in a broad planetary ring tends to excite the inclinations of the nearby ring
particles, and the ring's self-gravity can allow that disturbance to propagate
away in the form of a spiral bending wave. The amplitude of this spiral bending
wave is determined, as well as the wavelength, which shrinks as the waves
propagate outwards due to the effects of the central planet's oblateness. The
excitation of these bending waves also damps the satellite's inclination I.
This secular I damping is also compared to the inclination excitation that is
due to the satellite's many other vertical resonances in the ring, and the
condition for inclination damping is determined. The secular I damping is
likely responsible for confining the orbits of Saturn's two known gap-embedded
moons, Pan and Daphnis, to the ring plane.
