Tracing the String: BMN correspondence at Finite J^2/N
Employing the string bit formalism of hep-th/0209215, we identify the basis
transformation that relates BMN operators in N=4 gauge theory to string states
in the dual string field theory at finite g_2=J^2/N. In this basis, the
supercharge truncates at linear order in g_2, and the mixing amplitude between
1 and 2-string states precisely matches with the (corrected) answer of
hep-th/0206073 for the 3-string amplitude in light-cone string field theory.
Supersymmetry then predicts the order g_2^2 contact term in the string bit
Hamiltonian. The resulting leading order mass renormalization of string states
agrees with the recently computed shift in conformal dimension of BMN operators
in the gauge theory.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figur
On the pion-nucleon coupling constant
In view of persisting misunderstanding about the determination of the
pion-nucleon coupling constants in the Nijmegen multienergy partial-wave
analyses of pp, np, and pbar-p scattering data, we present additional
information which may clarify several points of discussion. We comment on
several recent papers addressing the issue of the pion-nucleon coupling
constant and criticizing the Nijmegen analyses.Comment: 19 pages, Nijmegen preprint THEF-NYM-92-0
The influence of gene expression time delays on Gierer-Meinhardt pattern formation systems
There are numerous examples of morphogen gradients controlling long range signalling in developmental and cellular systems. The prospect of two such interacting morphogens instigating long range self-organisation in biological systems via a Turing bifurcation has been explored, postulated, or implicated in the context of numerous developmental processes. However, modelling investigations of cellular systems typically neglect the influence of gene expression on such dynamics, even though transcription and translation are observed to be important in morphogenetic systems. In particular, the influence of gene expression on a large class of Turing bifurcation models, namely those with pure kinetics such as the Gierer–Meinhardt system, is unexplored. Our investigations demonstrate that the behaviour of the Gierer–Meinhardt model profoundly changes on the inclusion of gene expression dynamics and is sensitive to the sub-cellular details of gene expression. Features such as concentration blow up, morphogen oscillations and radical sensitivities to the duration of gene expression are observed and, at best, severely restrict the possible parameter spaces for feasible biological behaviour. These results also indicate that the behaviour of Turing pattern formation systems on the inclusion of gene expression time delays may provide a means of distinguishing between possible forms of interaction kinetics. Finally, this study also emphasises that sub-cellular and gene expression dynamics should not be simply neglected in models of long range biological pattern formation via morphogens
Density dependent hadron field theory for neutron stars with antikaon condensates
We investigate and condensation in -equilibrated
hyperonic matter within a density dependent hadron field theoretical model. In
this model, baryon-baryon and (anti)kaon-baryon interactions are mediated by
the exchange of mesons. Density dependent meson-baryon coupling constants are
obtained from microscopic Dirac Brueckner calculations using Groningen and Bonn
A nucleon-nucleon potential. It is found that the threshold of antikaon
condensation is not only sensitive to the equation of state but also to
antikaon optical potential depth. Only for large values of antikaon optical
potential depth, condensation sets in even in the presence of negatively
charged hyperons. The threshold of condensation is always reached
after condensation. Antikaon condensation makes the equation of state
softer thus resulting in smaller maximum mass stars compared with the case
without any condensate.Comment: 20 pages, 7 figures; final version to appear in Physical Review
Green function techniques in the treatment of quantum transport at the molecular scale
The theoretical investigation of charge (and spin) transport at nanometer
length scales requires the use of advanced and powerful techniques able to deal
with the dynamical properties of the relevant physical systems, to explicitly
include out-of-equilibrium situations typical for electrical/heat transport as
well as to take into account interaction effects in a systematic way.
Equilibrium Green function techniques and their extension to non-equilibrium
situations via the Keldysh formalism build one of the pillars of current
state-of-the-art approaches to quantum transport which have been implemented in
both model Hamiltonian formulations and first-principle methodologies. We offer
a tutorial overview of the applications of Green functions to deal with some
fundamental aspects of charge transport at the nanoscale, mainly focusing on
applications to model Hamiltonian formulations.Comment: Tutorial review, LaTeX, 129 pages, 41 figures, 300 references,

Strangeness nuclear physics: a critical review on selected topics
Selected topics in strangeness nuclear physics are critically reviewed. This
includes production, structure and weak decay of --Hypernuclei, the
nuclear interaction and the possible existence of bound
states in nuclei. Perspectives for future studies on these issues are also
outlined.Comment: 63 pages, 51 figures, accepted for publication on European Physical

Measurement of the diffractive structure function in deep inelastic scattering at HERA
This paper presents an analysis of the inclusive properties of diffractive
deep inelastic scattering events produced in interactions at HERA. The
events are characterised by a rapidity gap between the outgoing proton system
and the remaining hadronic system. Inclusive distributions are presented and
compared with Monte Carlo models for diffractive processes. The data are
consistent with models where the pomeron structure function has a hard and a
soft contribution. The diffractive structure function is measured as a function
of \xpom, the momentum fraction lost by the proton, of , the momentum
fraction of the struck quark with respect to \xpom, and of . The \xpom
dependence is consistent with the form \xpoma where
in all bins of and
. In the measured range, the diffractive structure function
approximately scales with at fixed . In an Ingelman-Schlein type
model, where commonly used pomeron flux factor normalisations are assumed, it
is found that the quarks within the pomeron do not saturate the momentum sum
rule.Comment: 36 pages, latex, 11 figures appended as uuencoded fil
Antikaon condensation and the metastability of protoneutron stars
We investigate the condensation of meson along with
condensation in the neutrino trapped matter with and without hyperons.
Calculations are performed in the relativistic mean field models in which both
the baryon-baryon and (anti)kaon-baryon interactions are mediated by meson
exchange. In the neutrino trapped matter relevant to protoneutron stars, the
critical density of condensation is shifted considerably to higher
density whereas that of condensation is shifted slightly to higher
density with respect to that of the neutrino free case. The onset of
condensation always occurs earlier than that of condensation. A
significant region of maximum mass protoneutron stars is found to contain condensate for larger values of the antikaon potential. With the
appearance of condensation, there is a region of symmetric nuclear
matter in the inner core of a protoneutron star. It is found that the maximum
mass of a protoneutron star containing and condensate is
greater than that of the corresponding neutron star. We revisit the implication
of this scenario in the context of the metastability of protoneutron stars and
their evolution to low mass black holes.Comment: 26 pages; Revtex; 8 figures include
