Kaon electromagnetic production: constraints set by new data

The CLAS data on the photo-production of K+ off the proton are utilised to study reaction mechanism of the process in frame of the isobaric approach. The missing D13 resonance is shown to be important for successful description of the data in the whole kinematical region. Constructed models provide satisfactory predictions for the process.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, contribution to the VIII International Conference on Hypernuclear & Strange Particle Physics, Jefferson Lab, Virginia, U.S.A., October 14-18, 200

Strangeness Electromagnetic Production on Nucleons and Nuclei

Isobar models for the electromagnetic production of kaons are discussed with emphasis on the K^+ photoproduction at very small kaon angles and K^0 photoproduction on deuteron. Distorted-wave impuls approximation calculations of the cross sections for the electroproduction of hypernuclei are presented on the case of the ^{12}B_\Lambda production.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, talk presented at the 10th Int.

Meson resonances in forward-angle π+π−\pi^+\pi^- photoproduction

Assuming that the $\pi^+\pi^-$ photoproduction at forward angles and high energies is dominated by one pion exchange we calculate the $\pi^+\pi^-$ mass distributions for low partial waves. Predictions of the model agree well Assuming that the $\pi^+\pi^-$ photoproduction at forward angles and high energies is dominated by one pion exchange we calculate the $\pi^+\pi^-$ mass distributions for low partial waves. Predictions of the model agree well with the experimental data which indicate that the $S$, $P$ and $D$ waves are dominated by the $f_0(980)$, $\rho(770)$ and $f_2(1270)$, resonances respectively.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figure

Polynomial time ultrapowers and the consistency of circuit lower bounds

A polynomial time ultrapower is a structure given by the set of polynomial time computable functions modulo some ultrafilter. They model the universal theory ∀PV of all polynomial time functions. Generalizing a theorem of Hirschfeld (Israel J Math 20(2):111–126, 1975), we show that every countable model of ∀PV is isomorphic to an existentially closed substructure of a polynomial time ultrapower. Moreover, one can take a substructure of a special form, namely a limit polynomial time ultrapower in the classical sense of Keisler (in: Bergelson, V., Blass, A., Di Nasso, M., Jin, R. (eds.) Ultrafilters across mathematics, contemporary mathematics vol 530, pp 163–179. AMS, New York, 1963). Using a polynomial time ultrapower over a nonstandard Herbrand saturated model of ∀PV we show that ∀PV is consistent with a formal statement of a polynomial size circuit lower bound for a polynomial time computable function. This improves upon a recent result of Krajíček and Oliveira (Logical methods in computer science 13 (1:4), 2017).Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft

Effect of the ηη\eta\eta channel and interference phenomena in the two-pion transitions of charmonia and bottomonia

The basic shape of di-pion mass spectra in the two-pion transitions of both charmonia and bottomonia states is explained by an unified mechanism based on contributions of the $\pi\pi$, $K\overline{K}$ and $\eta\eta$ coupled channels including their interference. The role of the individual $f_0$ resonances in shaping the di-pion mass distributions in the charmonia and bottomonia decays is considered.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, Talk at the XXIII International Baldin Seminar on High Energy Physics Problems "Relativistic Nuclear Physics \& Quantum Chromodynamics" (Dubna, Russia, 19--24 September 2016). arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1610.0789

Effect of the KK‾K\overline{K} and ηη\eta\eta channels and interference phenomena in the two-pion and KK‾K\overline{K} transitions of charmonia and bottomonia

It is shown that the basic shape of dipion and $K\overline{K}$ mass spectra in decays $J/\psi\to\phi(\pi\pi,K\overline{K})$, $\psi(2S)\to J/\psi\,\pi\pi$, $Y(4260)\to J/\phi~\pi\pi$ and in the two-pion transitions of bottomonia states are explained by an unified mechanism based on the contribution of the $\pi\pi$, $K\overline{K}$ and $\eta\eta$ coupled channels including their interference. The role of the individual $f_0$ resonances in making up the shape of the dipion mass distributions in the charmonia and bottomonia decays is considered.Comment: 13 pages, 9 figure

Research and Development of Lightweight Repair Mortars with Focus on Their Resistance to High Temperatures

In this article our research focused on study of basic physical and mechanical parameters of polymer-cement repair materials is presented. Namely the influence of applied aggregates in combination with active admixture is specially considered. New formulas which were exposed in ambient with temperature even to 1000°C were suggested. Subsequently densities and strength characteristics including their changes were evaluated. Selected samples were analyzed using electron microscope. The positive influence of porous aggregates based on sintered ash was definitely demonstrated. Further it was found than in terms of thermal resistance the effective micro silica amount represents 5% to 7.5% of cement weight
