The characteristic system for the Euler - Poisson's equations
In this paper we investigate the nonlinear system naturally connected with the Euler - Poisson's equations. The solutions of this system may be used for description of the singular points to the Euler - Poisson's equations
Quark-Hadron Duality and Form Factors
We use local quark-hadron duality to estimate the purely nonperturbative soft
contribution to the form factors. Our results are in
agreement with existing experimental data. We predict that the ratio
is small for all accessible , in contrast to the
pQCD expectations that .Comment: 15 pages, LaTeX + 4 PS-figures enclosed in one uuencoded, compressed

ERRATUM TO: Power corrections to parton sum rules for deep inelastic scattering from polarized targets
We clarify conflicting results in the literature on coefficient functions in
front of higher twist operators contributing to the parton sum rules for deep
inelastic scattering from polarized targets. The necessary corrections do not
affect our calculations of matrix elements, published in
Phys.Lett.B242(1990)245, but change final estimates of the
contributions to Bjorken and Ellis--Jaffe sum rules.Comment: 2 pages, MPI-Ph/93-0
On Possible Light-Torsion Mixing in Background Magnetic Field
The interaction of the light with propagating axial torsion fields in the
presence of an external magnetic field has been investigated. Axial torsion
fields appearing in higher derivative quantum gravity possess two states, with
spin one and zero, with different masses. The torsion field with spin-0 state
is a ghost that can be removed if its mass is infinite. We investigate the
possibility when the light mixes with the torsion fields resulting in the
effect of vacuum birefringence and dichroism. The expressions for ellipticity
and the rotation of light polarization axis depending on the coupling constant
and the external magnetic field have been obtained.Comment: 12 pages, title changed, shortened journal version, accepted in

Negative pion photoproduction off polarized deuteron target
It is discussed whether the target asymmetry (TA) for γn→π⁻p can be extracted from data on γd→π⁻pp. An exclusive experiment that enhances production of pions on neutron at rest and suppresses contributions of the recoil mechanism is shown to correspond to this purpose. The relation between the TAs for the reactions on deuteron and neutron is established taking into account pion and active nucleon rescattering in the final state and neglecting effects due to interaction with the spectator nucleon
Ioffe-time distributions instead of parton momentum distributions in description of deep inelastic scattering
We argue that parton distributions in coordinate space provide a more natural
object for nonperturbative methods compared to the usual momentum distributions
in which the physics of different longitudinal distances is being mixed. To
illustrate the advantages of the coordinate space formulation, we calculate the
coordinate space distributions for valence quarks in the proton using the QCD
sum rule approach. A remarkable agreement is found between the calculated and
the experimentally measured u-quark distribution up to light-cone distances
of order fm in the proton rest frame.
The calculation for valence d quarks gives much worse results; the reasons for
this discrepancy are discussed.Comment: 24 pages plus 13 pages with figures, requires epsf.sty, revised

Phase of the Wilson Line at High Temperature in the Standard Model
We compute the effective potential for the phase of the Wilson line at high
temperature in the standard model to one loop order. Besides the trivial vacua,
there are metastable states in the direction of hypercharge. Assuming
that the universe starts out in such a metastable state at the Planck scale, it
easily persists to the time of the electroweak phase transition, which then
proceeds by an unusual mechanism. All remnants of the metastable state
evaporate about the time of the phase transition.Comment: 4 pages in ReVTeX plus 1 figure; Columbia Univ. preprint CU-TP-63
and couplings in QCD
We calculate the and couplings using QCD sum rules on the
light-cone. In this approach, the large-distance dynamics is incorporated in a
set of pion wave functions. We take into account two-particle and
three-particle wave functions of twist 2, 3 and 4. The resulting values of the
coupling constants are and .
From this we predict the partial width \Gamma (D^{*+} \ra D^0 \pi^+ )=32 \pm
5~ keV . We also discuss the soft-pion limit of the sum rules which is
equivalent to the external axial field approach employed in earlier
calculations. Furthermore, using and the pole
dominance model for the B \ra \pi and D\ra \pi semileptonic form factors
is compared with the direct calculation of these form factors in the same
framework of light-cone sum rules.Comment: 27 pages (LATEX) +3 figures enclosed as .uu file MPI-PhT/94-62 ,
