Photon Structure and gamma-gamma Physics

The LEP experiments are making real progress in understanding the structure of the photon, though the results do not yet give such clear demonstrations of QCD in action as the proton structure has done. Other new results are reported, including QED related effects and $\gamma \gamma \to Resonances$, from LEP and from CLEO II.Comment: 16 pages, 15 figures, Contribution to "Physics in Collision", Frascati, June 18-19, 199

The Higgs and Neutralino Sectors of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model

The Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) includes a Higgs iso-singlet superfield in addition to the two Higgs doublet superfields of the minimal supersymmetric extension. The Higgs sector and neutralino sectors of this model are examined within the context of a future linear collider.Comment: 5 pages, talk presented at LCWS04, International Conference on Linear Colliders, 19-23 April 2004, Paris, France, to appear in the proceeding

Unexpected local extrema for the Sendov conjecture

Let S(n) be the set of all polynomials of degree n with all roots in the unit disk, and define d(P) to be the maximum of the distances from each of the roots of a polynomial P to that root's nearest critical point. In this notation, Sendov's conjecture asserts that d(P)<=1 for every P in S(n). Define P in S(n) to be locally extremal if d(P)>=d(Q) for all nearby Q in S(n), and note that maximizing d(P) over all locally extremal polynomials P would settle the Sendov conjecture. Prior to now, the only polynomials known to be locally extremal were of the form P(z)=c(z^n+a) with |a|=1. In this paper, we determine sufficient conditions for real polynomials of a different form to be locally extremal, and we use these conditions to find locally extremal polynomials of this form of degrees 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, and 26.Comment: 10 pages, AMS-LaTeX, no figures. The Maple code and results used in this paper are included in the source files. We constructed an unexpected locally extremal polynomial of degree 8 in version 1, then added degrees 12, 14, 20 and 26 in version 2, and degrees 9, 13, 15 and 19 in version
