Multilevel Models of Krypton for the Application to Stepwise Ionization Relaxation Processes
A four step model and two five step models of krypton are developed for application to stepwise ionization relaxation. The four step model is preferred out of practical and economical grounds. The corresponding rate equations for collisional excitation and ionization are given assuming ladder climbing for the electrons. Selected results of an application of the model to ionization relaxation in shock waves are reported
On the massless "just-so" solution to the solar neutrino problem
We study the effect of the non-resonant, vacuum oscillation-like neutrino
flavor conversion induced by non-standard flavor changing and non-universal
flavor diagonal neutrino interactions with electrons in the sun. We have found
an acceptable fit for the combined analysis for the solar experiments total
rates, the Super-Kamiokande (SK) energy spectrum and zenith angle dependence.
Phenomenological constraints on non-standard flavor changing and non-universal
flavor diagonal neutrino interactions are considered.Comment: 4 pages, Latex, uses eps
The averaged tensors of the relative energy-momentum and angular momentum in general relativity and some their applications
There exist at least a few different kind of averaging of the differences of
the energy-momentum and angular momentum in normal coordinates {\bf NC(P)}
which give tensorial quantities. The obtained averaged quantities are
equivalent mathematically because they differ only by constant scalar
dimensional factors. One of these averaging was used in our papers [1-8] giving
the {\it canonical superenergy and angular supermomentum tensors}.
In this paper we present another averaging of the differences of the
energy-momentum and angular momentum which gives tensorial quantities with
proper dimensions of the energy-momentum and angular momentum densities. But
these averaged relative energy-momentum and angular momentum tensors, closely
related to the canonical superenergy and angular supermomentum tensors, {\it
depend on some fundamental length }.
The averaged relative energy-momentum and angular momentum tensors of the
gravitational field obtained in the paper can be applied, like the canonical
superenergy and angular supermomentum tensors, to {\it coordinate independent}
analysis (local and in special cases also global) of this field.
We have applied the averaged relative energy-momentum tensors to analyze
vacuum gravitational energy and momentum and to analyze energy and momentum of
the Friedman (and also more general) universes. The obtained results are very
interesting, e.g., the averaged relative energy density is {\it positive
definite} for the all Friedman universes.Comment: 30 pages, minor changes referring to Kasner universe
Energy-Momentum Localization for a Space-Time Geometry Exterior to a Black Hole in the Brane World
In general relativity one of the most fundamental issues consists in defining
a generally acceptable definition for the energy-momentum density. As a
consequence, many coordinate-dependent definitions have been presented, whereby
some of them utilize appropriate energy-momentum complexes. We investigate the
energy-momentum distribution for a metric exterior to a spherically symmetric
black hole in the brane world by applying the Landau-Lifshitz and Weinberg
prescriptions. In both the aforesaid prescriptions, the energy thus obtained
depends on the radial coordinate, the mass of the black hole and a parameter
, while all the momenta are found to be zero. It is shown that for
a special value of the parameter , the Schwarzschild space-time
geometry is recovered. Some particular and limiting cases are also discussed.Comment: 10 pages, sections 1 and 3 slightly modified, references modified and

Distribution of Energy-Momentum in a Schwarzschild-Quintessence Space-time Geometry
An analysis of the energy-momentum localization for a four-dimensional\break
Schwarzschild black hole surrounded by quintessence is presented in order to
provide expressions for the distributions of energy and momentum. The
calculations are performed by using the Landau-Lifshitz and Weinberg
energy-momentum complexes. It is shown that all the momenta vanish, while the
expression for the energy depends on the mass of the black hole, the state
parameter and the normalization factor . The special case of
is also studied, and two limiting cases are examined.Comment: 9 page
The Energy of Regular Black Hole in General Relativity Coupled to Nonlinear Electrodynamics
According to the Einstein, Weinberg, and M{\o}ller energy-momentum complexes,
we evaluate the energy distribution of the singularity-free solution of the
Einstein field equations coupled to a suitable nonlinear electrodynamics
suggested by Ay\'{o}n-Beato and Garc\'{i}a. The results show that the energy
associated with the definitions of Einstein and Weinberg are the same, but
M{\o}ller not. Using the power series expansion, we find out that the first two
terms in the expression are the same as the energy distributions of the
Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m solution, and the third term could be used to survey the
factualness between numerous solutions of the Einstein field eqautions coupled
to a nonlinear electrodynamics.Comment: 11 page
Charged Dilaton, Energy, Momentum and Angular-Momentum in Teleparallel Theory Equivalent to General Relativity
We apply the energy-momentum tensor to calculate energy, momentum and
angular-momentum of two different tetrad fields. This tensor is coordinate
independent of the gravitational field established in the Hamiltonian structure
of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR). The spacetime of
these tetrad fields is the charged dilaton. Our results show that the energy
associated with one of these tetrad fields is consistent, while the other one
does not show this consistency. Therefore, we use the regularized expression of
the gravitational energy-momentum tensor of the TEGR. We investigate the energy
within the external event horizon using the definition of the gravitational
energy-momentum.Comment: 22 Pages Late
Mutagenicity of aryl propylene and butylene oxides with Salmonella
10 aryl propylene oxides and 6 aryl butylene oxides were synthesized. Dose-mutagenicity relationships were studied for these compounds and for 1,2-epoxybutane, using both the preincubation and plate incorporation Ames tests with Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100 and TA1535. Structure-mutagenicity relationships were further examined by concurrent testing at single doses with the plate incorporation assay in strain TA100. In both series of compounds, mutagenicity showed very weak correlation to chemical reactivity, molar volume and partition values. However, all compounds were mutagenic in at least one system with the propylene oxides being more mutagenic than the corresponding butylene oxide derivatives. The naphthyl derivatives in each series were the most mutagenic.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/26518/1/0000056.pd
Combination of searches for Higgs boson pairs in pp collisions at \sqrts = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
This letter presents a combination of searches for Higgs boson pair production using up to 36.1 fb(-1) of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy root s = 13 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The combination is performed using six analyses searching for Higgs boson pairs decaying into the b (b) over barb (b) over bar, b (b) over barW(+)W(-), b (b) over bar tau(+)tau(-), W+W-W+W-, b (b) over bar gamma gamma and W+W-gamma gamma final states. Results are presented for non-resonant and resonant Higgs boson pair production modes. No statistically significant excess in data above the Standard Model predictions is found. The combined observed (expected) limit at 95% confidence level on the non-resonant Higgs boson pair production cross-section is 6.9 (10) times the predicted Standard Model cross-section. Limits are also set on the ratio (kappa(lambda)) of the Higgs boson self-coupling to its Standard Model value. This ratio is constrained at 95% confidence level in observation (expectation) to -5.0 < kappa(lambda) < 12.0 (-5.8 < kappa(lambda) < 12.0). In addition, limits are set on the production of narrow scalar resonances and spin-2 Kaluza-Klein Randall-Sundrum gravitons. Exclusion regions are also provided in the parameter space of the habemus Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and the Electroweak Singlet Model.
