Content management by keywords: An analytical Study
Various methods of content analysis are described with special emphasis to keyword analysis. The paper is based on an analytical study of 97 keywords extracted from titles and abstracts of 70 research articles from INSPEC, taking ten from each year starting from 2000 to 2006, in decreasing order of relevance, on Fermi Liquid, which is a specific subject under Condensed Matter Physics. The keywords beginning with the letters ‗A‘ to ‗F‘ only are considered for this study. The keywords are indexed to critically examine its physical structure that is composed of three fundamental kernels, viz. key phrase, modulator and qualifier. The key phrase reflects the central concept, which is usually post-coordinated by the modulator to amend the central concept in accordance with the relevant context. The qualifier comes after the modulator to describe the particular state of the central concept and/or amended concept. The keywords are further classified in 36 classes on the basis of the 10 parameters, of which 4 parameters are intrinsic, i.e. associativeness, chronological appearance, frequency of occurrence and category; and remaining 6 parameters are extrinsic, i.e. Clarity of meaning, type of meaning, scope of meaning, level of perception, mode of creation and area of occurrence. The number of classes under 4 intrinsic parameters is 16, while the same under 6 extrinsic parameters are 20. A new taxonomy of keywords has been proposed here that will help to analyze research-trend of a subject and also identify potential research-areas under its scope

Mean-field description of ground-state properties of drip-line nuclei. (I) Shell-correction method
A shell-correction method is applied to nuclei far from the beta stability
line and its suitability to describe effects of the particle continuum is
discussed. The sensitivity of predicted locations of one- and two-particle drip
lines to details of the macroscopic-microscopic model is analyzed.Comment: 22 REVTeX pages, 13 uuencoded postscript figures available upon

Non-perturbative effects in a rapidly expanding quark-gluon plasma
Within first-order phase transitions, we investigate the pre-transitional
effects due to the nonperturbative, large-amplitude thermal fluctuations which
can promote phase mixing before the critical temperature is reached from above.
In contrast with the cosmological quark-hadron transition, we find that the
rapid cooling typical of the RHIC and LHC experiments and the fact that the
quark-gluon plasma is chemically unsaturated suppress the role of
non-perturbative effects at current collider energies. Significant supercooling
is possible in a (nearly) homogeneous state of quark gluon plasma.Comment: LaTeX, 7 pages with 7 Postscript figures. Figures added, discussions

Nucleation versus Spinodal decomposition in a first order quark hadron phase transition
We investigate the scenario of homogeneous nucleation for a first order
quark-hadron phase transition in a rapidly expanding background of quark gluon
plasma. Using an improved preexponential factor for homogeneous nucleation
rate, we solve a set of coupled equations to study the hadronization and the
hydrodynamical evolution of the matter. It is found that significant
supercooling is possible before hadronization begins. This study also suggests
that spinodal decomposition competes with nucleation and may provide an
alternative mechanism for phase conversion particularly if the transition is
strong enough and the medium is nonviscous. For weak enough transition, the
phase conversion may still proceed via homogeneous nucleation.Comment: LaTeX, 10 pages with 7 Postscript figures, more discussions and

Tau neutrino deep inelastic charged current interactions
The nu_mu -> nu_tau oscillation hypothesis will be tested through nu_tau
production of tau in underground neutrino telescopes as well as long-baseline
experiments. We provide the full QCD framework for the evaluation of tau
neutrino deep inelastic charged current (CC) cross sections, including
next-leading-order (NLO) corrections, charm production, tau threshold, and
target mass effects in the collinear approximation. We investigate the
violation of the Albright-Jarlskog relations for the structure functions F_4,5
which occur only in heavy lepton (tau) scattering. Integrated CC cross sections
are evaluated naively over the full phase space and with the inclusion of DIS
kinematic cuts. Uncertainties in our evaluation based on scale dependence, PDF
errors and the interplay between kinematic and dynamical power corrections are
discussed and/or quantified.Comment: 28 pages, 10 figure
Particle density fluctuations
Event-by-event fluctuations in the multiplicities of charged particles and
photons at SPS energies are discussed. Fluctuations are studied by controlling
the centrality of the reaction and rapidity acceptance of the detectors.
Results are also presented on the event-by-event study of correlations between
the multiplicity of charged particles and photons to search for DCC-like
signals.Comment: Talk presented at Quark Matter 2002, Nantes, Franc
Search for DCC in 158A GeV Pb+Pb Collisions
A detailed analysis of the phase space distributions of charged particles and
photons have been carried out using two independent methods. The results
indicate the presence of nonstatistical fluctuations in localized regions of
phase space.Comment: Talk at the PANIC99 Conference, June 9-16, 199
Pion Freeze-Out Time in Pb+Pb Collisions at 158 A GeV/c Studied via pi-/pi+ and K-/K+ Ratios
The effect of the final state Coulomb interaction on particles produced in
Pb+Pb collisions at 158 A GeV/c has been investigated in the WA98 experiment
through the study of the pi-/pi+ and K-/K+ ratios measured as a function of
transverse mass. While the ratio for kaons shows no significant transverse mass
dependence, the pi-/pi+ ratio is enhanced at small transverse mass values with
an enhancement that increases with centrality. A silicon pad detector located
near the target is used to estimate the contribution of hyperon decays to the
pi-/pi+ ratio. The comparison of results with predictions of the RQMD model in
which the Coulomb interaction has been incorporated allows to place constraints
on the time of the pion freeze-out.Comment: 9 pages, 12 figure
