Pair production of the T-odd leptons at the LHC
The T-odd leptons predicted by the littlest model with T-parity can
be pair produced via the subprocesses ,
, and (= or
) at the Large Hadron Collider . We estimate the hadronic
production cross sections for all of these processes and give a simply
phenomenology analysis. We find that the cross sections for most of the above
processes are very small. However, the value of the cross section for the
process can reach .Comment: 12 pages, 2 figure
Effects of stochasticity on the length and behaviour of ecological transients
There is a growing recognition that ecological systems can spend extended periods of time far away from an asymptotic state, and that ecological understanding will therefore require a deeper appreciation for how long ecological transients arise. Recent work has defined classes of deterministic mechanisms that can lead to long transients. Given the ubiquity of stochasticity in ecological systems, a similar systematic treatment of transients that includes the influence of stochasticity is important. Stochasticity can of course promote the appearance of transient dynamics by preventing systems from settling permanently near their asymptotic state, but stochasticity also interacts with deterministic features to create qualitatively new dynamics. As such, stochasticity may shorten, extend or fundamentally change a system\u27s transient dynamics. Here, we describe a general framework that is developing for understanding the range of possible outcomes when random processes impact the dynamics of ecological systems over realistic time scales. We emphasize that we can understand the ways in which stochasticity can either extend or reduce the lifetime of transients by studying the interactions between the stochastic and deterministic processes present, and we summarize both the current state of knowledge and avenues for future advances
Influence of the cavity on the low-temperature photoluminescence of SiGe/Si multiquantum wells grown on a silicon-on-insulator substrate
The influences of the cavity on the low-temperature photoluminescence of Si0.59Ge0.41/Si multiquantum wells grown on silicon-on-insulator substrates are discussed. The positions of the modulated photoluminescence (PL) peaks not only relate to the nature of SiGe/Si multiquantum wells, but also relate to the characteristic of the cavity. With increasing temperature, a redshift of the modulated PL peak originating from the thermo-optical effect of the cavity is observed. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics. (DOI:10.1063/1.2187433
Neutrino propagation in a random magnetic field
The active-sterile neutrino conversion probability is calculated for neutrino
propagating in a medium in the presence of random magnetic field fluctuations.
Necessary condition for the probability to be positive definite is obtained.
Using this necessary condition we put constraint on the neutrino magnetic
moment from active-sterile electron neutrino conversion in the early universe
hot plasma and in supernova.Comment: 11 page

Isospin Multiplet Structure in Ultra--Heavy Fermion Bound States
The coupled Bethe--Salpeter bound state equations for a system,
where is a degenerate, fourth generation, super--heavy quark doublet,
are solved in several ladder approximation models. The exchanges of gluon,
Higgs and Goldstone modes in the standard model are calculated in the
ultra--heavy quark limit where weak and contributions are
negligible. A natural and multiplet pattern is found, with large
splittings occuring between the different weak iso--spin states when , the
quark masses, are larger than values in the range ,
depending on which model is used. Consideration of ultra--heavy quark lifetime
constraints and mass splitting constraints are reviewed to establish the
plausibility of lifetime and mass degeneracy requirements assumed for this
paper.Comment: 20 pages, 7 figures (hard copy available upon request), report#
