    The production potential of the excited neutrinos at the FCC-based electron-hadron colliders, namely the ERL60\otimesFCC with s=3.46\sqrt{s}=3.46 TeV, the ILC\otimesFCC with s=10\sqrt{s}=10 TeV, and the PWFA-LC\otimesFCC with s=31.6\sqrt{s}=31.6 TeV, has been analyzed. The branching ratios of the excited neutrinos have been calculated for the different decay channels and shown that the dominant channel is νeW+\nu^{\star}\rightarrow eW^{+}. We have calculated the production cross sections with the process of epνqeW+qep\rightarrow\nu^{\star}q\rightarrow eW^{+}q and the decay widths of the excited neutrinos with the process of νeW+\nu^{\star}\rightarrow eW^{+}. The signals and corresponding backgrounds are studied in detail to obtain accessible mass limits. It is shown that the discovery limits obtained on the mass of the excited neutrino are 24522452 GeV for Lint=100L_{int}=100 fb1fb^{-1}, 56355635 GeV for Lint=10L_{int}=10 fb1fb^{-1} (64606460 GeV for Lint=100L_{int}=100 fb1fb^{-1}), and 1020010200 GeV for Lint=1L_{int}=1 fb1fb^{-1} (1396013960 GeV for Lint=10L_{int}=10 fb1fb^{-1}), for the center-of-mass energies of 3.463.46, 1010, and 31.631.6 TeV, respectively.Comment: 16 pages, 9 figures, 5 table

    On the representation of multi-ideals by tensor norms

    Full text link
    A tensor norm β=(βn)n=1\beta= (\beta_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty} is smooth if the natural correspondence (E1EnK,βn+1)(E1En,βn)(E_{1} \otimes\cdots\otimes E_{n} \otimes\mathbb{K},\beta_{n+1}) \longleftrightarrow (E_{1} \otimes\cdots\otimes E_{n} ,\beta_{n}) is always an isometric isomorphism. In this paper we study the representation of multi-ideals and of ideals of multilinear forms by smooth tensor norms

    We study the excited muon production at the FCC based muon-hadron colliders. We give the excited muon decay widths and production cross section. We deal with the μpμqμγq\mu p\rightarrow\mu^{\star}q\rightarrow\mu\gamma q process and we plot the transverse momentum, rapidity and invariant mass distributions of final state particles to get the discovery cuts. By using discovery cuts, we get the mass limits for excited muons. It is shown that the discovery limits on the mass of μ\mu^{\star} are 2.2 TeV, 5.9 TeV and 7.5 TeV for μ63\mu63-FCC, μ750\mu750-FCC and μ1500\mu1500-FCC, respectively.Comment: 13 pages, 10 figures, 3 tables, version of published in Adv.

    X-ray outbursts of AXPs and SGRs

    We show that the X‐ray enhancement light curves of transient AXP∕SGRs can be reproduced by the active fallback disk model. We solve the diffusion equation for the relaxation of a disk that has been pushed back by a soft gamma‐ray burst. Our preliminary results indicate that a critical temperature around 1500 K leads to a thermal‐viscous instability in the fallback disks of all AXP∕SGRs. The effect of the instability on the light curves are different for transient and persistent sources due to different pre‐burst disk conditions in these systems

    SEARCH FOR GRAVITATIONALLY REDSHIFTED 2.2 MEV LINE FROM 4U 1820-30

    We have analyzed 1.7 Ms of the INTEGRAL data of the Low Mass X-Ray Binary (LMXB) 4U 1820-30 and searched for the redshifted 2.2 MeV neutron capture gamma-ray line. This source is unique in that it is thought to be accreting pure Helium and might be a powerful 2.2 MeV line source. If detected, this line would strongly constrain the neutron star equation of state, motivating this search. The line is expected to be redshifted to 1.30-1.72 MeV so we scanned the 1-2 MeV region. Although we failed to detect the redshifted 2.2 MeV line, mainly due to the intense background noise to which INTEGRAL is exposed, we placed upper limits on the source’s flux for different line widths. We plan to do analysis on the rest of the data (over 8 Ms) in the future
