Equation of state of strongly coupled Hamiltonian lattice QCD at finite density
We calculate the equation of state of strongly coupled Hamiltonian lattice
QCD at finite density by constructing a solution to the equation of motion
corresponding to an effective Hamiltonian using Wilson fermions. We find that
up to and beyond the chiral symmetry restoration density the pressure of the
quark Fermi sea can be negative indicating its mechanical instability. This
result is in qualitative agreement with continuum models and should be
verifiable by future numerical simulations.Comment: 14 pages, 2 EPS figures. Revised version - added discussion on the

Hamiltonian lattice QCD at finite density: equation of state in the strong coupling limit
The equation of state of Hamiltonian lattice QCD at finite density is
examined in the strong coupling limit by constructing a solution to the
equation of motion corresponding to an effective Hamiltonian describing the
ground state of the many body system. This solution exactly diagonalizes the
Hamiltonian to second order in field operators for all densities and is used to
evaluate the vacuum energy density from which we obtain the equation of state.
We find that up to and beyond the chiral symmetry restoration density the
pressure of the quark Fermi sea can be negative indicating its mechanical
instability. Our result is in qualitative agreement with continuum models and
should be verifiable by future lattice simulations of strongly coupled QCD at
finite density.Comment: 27 pages, 6 figures. Uses ReVTeX4 and BiBTeX. Revised versio
Order from disorder in lattice QCD at high density
We investigate the properties of the ground state of strong coupling lattice
QCD at finite density. Our starting point is the effective Hamiltonian for
color singlet objects, which looks at lowest order as an antiferromagnet, and
describes meson physics with a fixed baryon number background. We concentrate
on uniform baryon number backgrounds (with the same baryon number on all
sites), for which the ground state was extracted in an earlier work, and
calculate the dispersion relations of the excitations. Two types of Goldstone
boson emerge. The first, antiferromagnetic spin waves, obey a linear dispersion
relation. The others, ferromagnetic magnons, have energies that are quadratic
in their momentum. These energies emerge only when fluctuations around the
large-N_c ground state are taken into account, along the lines of ``order from
disorder'' in frustrated magnetic systems. Unlike other spectrum calculations
in order from disorder, we employ the Euclidean path integral. For comparison,
we also present a Hamiltonian calculation using a generalized
Holstein-Primakoff transformation. The latter can only be constructed for a
subset of the cases we consider.Comment: 24 pages, 6 figures, 1 tabl
A web of stakeholders and strategies: A case of broadband diffusion in South Korea
When a new technology is launched, its diffusion becomes an issue of importance. There are various stakeholders that influence diffusion. The question that remains to be determined is their identification and roles. This paper outlines how the strategies pursued by a government acting as the key stakeholder affected the diffusion of a new technology. The analysis is based on a theoretical framework derived from innovation diffusion and stakeholder theories. The empirical evidence comes from a study of broadband development in South Korea. A web of stakeholders and strategies is drawn in order to identify the major stakeholders involved and highlight their relations. The case of South Korea offers implications for other countries that are pursuing broadband diffusion strategies

Signals for strange quark contributions to the neutrino (antineutrino) scattering in quasi-elastic region
Strange quark contributions to the neutrino (antineutrino) scattering are
investigated on the elastic neutrino-nucleon scattering and the
neutrino-nucleus scattering for 12C target in the quasi-elastic region on the
incident energy of 500 MeV, within the framework of a relativistic single
particle model. For the neutrino-nucleus scattering, the effects of final state
interaction for the knocked-out nucleon are included by a relativistic optical
potential. In the cross sections we found some cancellations of the strange
quark contributions between the knocked-out protons and neutrons. Consequently,
the asymmetries between the incident neutrino and antineutrino which is the
ratio of neutral current to charged current, and the difference between the
asymmetries are shown to be able to yield more feasible quantities for the
strangeness effects. In order to explicitly display importance of the
cancellations, results of the exclusive reaction 16O(\nu, \nu' p) are
additionally presented for detecting the strangeness effects.Comment: 14 pages, 8 figures, submitted to Phys. Lett.
The nature of the Lambda(1405)
We present here some results supporting the nature of the
resonance as dynamically generated from the meson baryon interaction in coupled
channels and resulting from the superposition of two close-by poles. We find
support for this picture in the reaction,
which shows a different shape than the one obtained from the reaction. We also call the attention to the with in the region, which shows a narrow
peak in the calculations around 1420 MeV. We also report on recent calculations
of the radiative decay of the two states and on reactions to
obtain information on these decay modes. Finally, we present results for the
reaction recently measured at ANKE/COSY and compare
them with theoretical results.Comment: Talk given at the NSTAR2007 Workshop, Bonn September 200
Heavy hadron spectroscopy and the bag model
Some time ago a slightly improved variant of bag model (the modified bag
model) suitable for the unified description of light and heavy hadrons was
developed. The main goal of the present work was to calculate the masses of the
ground state baryons containing bottom quarks in the framework of this model.
For completeness the predictions for other heavy hadrons are also given. The
reasonable agreement of our results with other theoretical calculations and
available experimental data suggests that our predictions could serve as a
useful complementary tool for the interpretation of heavy hadron spectra.Comment: 18 pages, 9 tables, references to experiments updated, rms deviations

The Decuplet Revisited in PT
The paper deals with two issues. First, we explore the quantitiative
importance of higher multiplets for properties of the decuplet in
chiral perturbation theory. In particular, it is found that the lowest order
one--loop contributions from the Roper octet to the decuplet masses and
magnetic moments are substantial. The relevance of these results to the chiral
expansion in general is discussed. The exact values of the magnetic moments
depend upon delicate cancellations involving ill--determined coupling
constants. Second, we present new relations between the magnetic moments of the
decuplet that are independent of all couplings. They are exact at the
order of the chiral expansion used in this paper.Comment: 7 pages of double column revtex, no figure
