Exact metric around a wiggly cosmic string
The exact metric around a wiggly cosmic string is found by modifying the
energy momentum-tensor of a straight infinitely thin cosmic string to include
an electric current along the symmetry axis.Comment: 5 page
Broadband probing magnetization dynamics of the coupled vortex state permalloy layers in nanopillars
Broadband magnetization response of coupled vortex state magnetic dots in
layered nanopillars was explored as a function of in-plane magnetic field and
interlayer separation. For dipolarly coupled circular Py(25 nm)/Cu(20 nm)/Py(25
nm) nanopillars of 600 nm diameter, a small in-plane field splits the
eigenfrequencies of azimuthal spin wave modes inducing an abrupt transition
between in-phase and out-of-phase kinds of the low-lying coupled spin wave
modes. The critical field for this splitting is determined by antiparallel
chiralities of the vortices in the layers. Qualitatively similar (although more
gradual) changes occur also in the exchange coupled Py(25 nm)/Cu(1 nm)/Py(25
nm) tri-layer nanopillars. These findings are in qualitative agreement with
micromagnetic dynamic simulations
Lepton polarization correlations in
In this work we will study the polarizations of both leptons () in the
decay channel . In the case of the dileptonic inclusive
decay , where apart from the polarization asymmetries
of single lepton , one can also observe the polarization asymmetries of
both leptons simultaneously. If this sort of measurement is possible then we
can have, apart from decay rate, FB asymmetry and the six single lepton
polarization asymmetries (three each for and ), nine more
double polarization asymmetries. This will give us a very useful tool in more
strict testing of SM and the physics beyond. We discuss the double polarization
asymmetries of leptons in the decay mode within
the SM and the Minimal Supersymmetric extensions of it.Comment: 21 pages, 21 figures; version to match paper to appear in PR
The complete set of solutions of the geodesic equations in the space-time of a Schwarzschild black hole pierced by a cosmic string
We study the geodesic equations in the space-time of a Schwarzschild black
hole pierced by an infinitely thin cosmic string and give the complete set of
analytical solutions of these equations for massive and massless particles,
respectively. The solutions of the geodesic equations can be classified
according to the particle's energy and angular momentum, the ratio between the
component of the angular momentum aligned with the axis of the string and the
total angular momentum, the deficit angle of the space-time and as well the
horizon radius (or mass) of the black hole. For bound orbits of massive test
particles we calculate the perihelion shift, we discuss light deflection and
comment on the Newtonian limit.Comment: 21 pages; section 3 shortened, references added; accepted for

A theorem on topologically massive gravity
We show that for three dimensional space-times admitting a hypersurface
orthogonal Killing vector field Deser, Jackiw and Templeton's vacuum field
equations of topologically massive gravity allow only the trivial flat
space-time solution. Thus spin is necessary to support topological mass.Comment: published in Classical and Quantum Gravity 13 (1996) L2
New physics effects to the lepton polarizations in the B -> K l^+ l^- decay
Using the general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the
general expressions of the longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization
asymmetries for (l^-) and (l^+) and combinations of them for the exclusive (B
-> K l^+ l^-) decay are found. The sensitivity of lepton polarizations and
their combinations on new Wilson coefficients are studied. It is found that
there exist regions of Wilson coefficients for which the branching ratio
coincides with the Standard Model result while the lepton polarizations differ
substantially from the standard model prediction. Hence, studying lepton
polarization in these regions of new Wilson coefficients can serve as a
promising tool for establishing new physics beyond the Standard Model.Comment: 18 pp, 14 figures (postscript formatted), LaTex formatte
Topologically massive magnetic monopoles
We show that in the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory of topologically massive
electrodynamics the Dirac string of a monopole becomes a cone in anti-de Sitter
space with the opening angle of the cone determined by the topological mass
which in turn is related to the square root of the cosmological constant. This
proves to be an example of a physical system, {\it a priory} completely
unrelated to gravity, which nevertheless requires curved spacetime for its very
existence. We extend this result to topologically massive gravity coupled to
topologically massive electrodynamics in the framework of the theory of Deser,
Jackiw and Templeton. These are homogeneous spaces with conical deficit. Pure
Einstein gravity coupled to Maxwell-Chern-Simons field does not admit such a
monopole solution
Shot Noise in Magnetic Tunnel Junctions: Evidence for Sequential Tunneling
We report the experimental observation of sub-Poissonian shot noise in single
magnetic tunnel junctions, indicating the importance of tunneling via impurity
levels inside the tunnel barrier. For junctions with weak zero-bias anomaly in
conductance, the Fano factor (normalized shot noise) depends on the magnetic
configuration being enhanced for antiparallel alignment of the ferromagnetic
electrodes. We propose a model of sequential tunneling through nonmagnetic and
paramagnetic impurity levels inside the tunnel barrier to qualitatively explain
the observations.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
