    Double-lepton polarizations in (B -> l^+ l^- gamma) decay

    Full text link
    Double-lepton polarization asymmetries in the (B -> l^+ l^- gamma) decay are calculated using the most general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian including all possible forms of the interaction. The dependencies of the asymmetries on new Wilson coefficients are investigated. The detectability the averaged double-lepton polarization asymmetries at LHC is also discussed.Comment: 20 pages, 7 PostScript figures, LaTeX formatte

    Electronic spectra of polyatomic molecules with resolved individual rotational transitions

    Get PDF
    The density of rotational transitions for a polyatomic molecule is so large that in general many such transitions are hidden under the Doppler profile, this being a fundamental limit of conventional high resolution electronic spectroscopy. We present here the first Doppler-free cw two-photon spectrum of a polyatomic molecule. In the case of benzene, 400 lines are observed of which 300 are due to single rotational transitions, their spacing being weil below the Doppler profile. The resolution so achieved is 1.5 X 10'. Benzene is a prototype planar molecule taken to have D •• symmetry in the ground as weil as in the first excited state. From our ultra-high resolution results it is found that benzene in the excited SI state i8 a symmetrical rotor to a high degree. A negative inertial defect is found for the excited state. The origin of this inertial defect is discused

    Constraints on Dark Photon from Neutrino-Electron Scattering Experiments

    Full text link
    A possible manifestation of an additional light gauge boson A′A^\prime, named as Dark Photon, associated with a group U(1)B−LU(1)_{\rm B-L} is studied in neutrino electron scattering experiments. The exclusion plot on the coupling constant gB−Lg_{\rm B-L} and the dark photon mass MA′M_{A^\prime} is obtained. It is shown that contributions of interference term between the dark photon and the Standard Model are important. The interference effects are studied and compared with for data sets from TEXONO, GEMMA, BOREXINO, LSND as well as CHARM II experiments. Our results provide more stringent bounds to some regions of parameter space.Comment: 22 pages, 6 figures, 2 tables, text improved, fig.6 updated, references adde

    Sparsity of integer solutions in the average case

    Get PDF
    We examine how sparse feasible solutions of integer programs are, on average. Average case here means that we fix the constraint matrix and vary the right-hand side vectors. For a problem in standard form with m equations, there exist LP feasible solutions with at most m many nonzero entries. We show that under relatively mild assumptions, integer programs in standard form have feasible solutions with O(m) many nonzero entries, on average. Our proof uses ideas from the theory of groups, lattices, and Ehrhart polynomials. From our main theorem we obtain the best known upper bounds on the integer Carathéodory number provided that the determinants in the data are small

    Double-Lepton Polarization Asymmetries and Branching Ratio of the B\rar \gamma l^+ l^- transition in Universal Extra Dimension

    Get PDF
    We study the radiative dileptonic B \rar \gamma l^+ l^- transition in the presence of a universal extra dimension in the Applequist-Cheng-Dobrescu model. In particular, using the corresponding form factors calculated via light cone QCD sum rules, we analyze the branching ratio and double lepton polarization asymmetries related to this channel and compare the results with the predictions of the standard model. We show how the results deviate from predictions of the standard model at lower values of the compactification factor (1/R1/R ) of extra dimension.Comment: 20 Pages and 8 Figure

    Instabilities for a relativistic electron beam interacting with a laser irradiated plasma

    Full text link
    The effects of a radiation field (RF) on the unstable modes developed in relativistic electron beam--plasma interaction are investigated assuming that ω0>ωp\omega_{0} >\omega_{p}, where ω0\omega_{0} is the frequency of the RF and ωp\omega_{p} is the plasma frequency. These unstable modes are parametrically coupled to each other due to the RF and are a mix between two--stream and parametric instabilities. The dispersion equations are derived by the linearization of the kinetic equations for a beam--plasma system as well as the Maxwell equations. In order to highlight the effect of the radiation field we present a comparison of our analytical and numerical results obtained for nonzero RF with those for vanishing RF. Assuming that the drift velocity ub\mathbf{u}_{b} of the beam is parallel to the wave vector k\mathbf{k} of the excitations two particular transversal and parallel configurations of the polarization vector E0\mathbf{E}_{0} of the RF with respect to k\mathbf{k} are considered in detail. It is shown that in both geometries resonant and nonresonant couplings between different modes are possible. The largest growth rates are expected at the transversal configuration when E0\mathbf{E}_{0} is perpendicular to k\mathbf{k}. In this case it is demonstrated that in general the spectrum of the unstable modes in ω\omega --kk plane is split into two distinct domains with long and short wavelengths, where the unstable modes are mainly sensitive to the beam or the RF parameters, respectively. In parallel configuration, E0∥k\mathbf{E}_{0} \parallel \mathbf{k}, and at short wavelengths the growth rates of the unstable modes are sensitive to both beam and RF parameters remaining insensitive to the RF at long wavelengths.Comment: 23 pages, 5 figure

    The scalar unparticle effect on the charged lepton electric dipole moment

    Full text link
    We study the charged lepton electric dipole moment which is induced by the scalar unparticle mediation and we predict the appropriate range for the free parameters appearing in the effective lagrangian which drives the unparticle-standard model lepton interactions. We observe that the charged lepton electric dipole moment is strongly sensitive to the scaling dimension d_u of the unparticle and the new couplings in the effective interaction. Furthermore, we see that the current experimental limits of charged lepton electric dipole moments can ensure an appropriate range for these free parameters.Comment: 19 pages, 13 Figure
