Momentum space saturation model for deep inelastic scattering and single inclusive hadron production
We show how the AGBS model, originally developed for deep inelastic
scattering applied to HERA data on the proton structure function, can also
describe the RHIC data on single inclusive hadron yield for and
collisions through a new simultaneous fit. The single inclusive hadron
production is modeled through the color glass condensate, which uses the
quark(and gluon)--condensate amplitudes in momentum space. The AGBS model is
also a momentum space model based on the asymptotic solutions of the BK
equation, although a different definition of the Fourier transform is used.
This aspect is overcome and a description entirely in transverse momentum of
both processes arises for the first time. The small difference between the
simultaneous fit and the one for HERA data alone suggests that the AGBS model
describes very well both kind of processes and thus emerges as a good tool to
investigate the inclusive hadron production data. We use this model for
predictions at LHC energies, which agree very well with available experimental
data.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figure
A semiquantitative approach to the impurity-band-related transport properties of GaMnAs nanolayers
We investigate the spin-polarized transport of GaMnAs nanolayers in which a
ferromagnetic order exists below a certain transition temperature. Our
calculation for the self-averaged resistivity takes into account the existence
of an impurity band determining the extended ("metallic" transport) or
localized (hopping by thermal excitation) nature of the states at and near the
Fermi level. Magnetic order and resistivity are inter-related due to the
influence of the spin polarization of the impurity band and the effect of the
Zeeman splitting on the mobility edge. We obtain, for a given range of Mn
concentration and carrier density, a "metallic" behavior in which the transport
by extended carriers dominates at low temperature, and is dominated by the
thermally excited localized carriers near and above the transition temperature.
This gives rise to a conspicuous hump of the resistivity which has been
experimentally observed and brings light onto the relationship between
transport and magnetic properties of this material
Newtonian View of General Relativistic Stars
Although general relativistic cosmological solutions, even in the presence of
pressure, can be mimicked by using neo-Newtonian hydrodynamics, it is not clear
whether there exists the same Newtonian correspondence for spherical static
configurations. General relativity solutions for stars are known as the
Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equations. On the other hand, the Newtonian
description does not take into account the total pressure effects and therefore
can not be used in strong field regimes. We discuss how to incorporate pressure
in the stellar equilibrium equations within the neo-Newtonian framework. We
compare the Newtonian, neo-Newtonian and the full relativistic theory by
solving the equilibrium equations for both three approaches and calculating the
mass-radius diagrams for some simple neutron stars equation of state.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures. v2 matches accepted version (EPJC
Equivalence between different classical treatments of the O(N) nonlinear sigma model and their functional Schrodinger equations
In this work we derive the Hamiltonian formalism of the O(N) non-linear sigma
model in its original version as a second-class constrained field theory and
then as a first-class constrained field theory. We treat the model as a
second-class constrained field theory by two different methods: the
unconstrained and the Dirac second-class formalisms. We show that the
Hamiltonians for all these versions of the model are equivalent. Then, for a
particular factor-ordering choice, we write the functional Schrodinger equation
for each derived Hamiltonian. We show that they are all identical which
justifies our factor-ordering choice and opens the way for a future
quantization of the model via the functional Schrodinger representation.Comment: Revtex version, 17 pages, substantial change
Scaling properties of the Penna model
We investigate the scaling properties of the Penna model, which has become a
popular tool for the study of population dynamics and evolutionary problems in
recent years. We find that the model generates a normalised age distribution
for which a simple scaling rule is proposed, that is able to reproduce
qualitative features for all genome sizes.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

Quantum Effects in the Spacetime of a Magnetic Flux Cosmic String
In this work we compute the vacuum expectation values of the energy-momentum
tensor and the average value of a massive, charged scalar field in the presence
of a magnetic flux cosmic string for both zero- and finite-temperature cases.Comment: To appear in the Int. Journal of Modern Phys. A (special issue).

A comparative study for the pair-creation contact process using series expansions
A comparative study between two distinct perturbative series expansions for
the pair-creation contact process is presented. In contrast to the ordinary
contact process, whose supercritical series expansions provide accurate
estimates for its critical behavior, the supercritical approach does not work
properly when applied to the pair-creation process. To circumvent this problem
a procedure is introduced in which one-site creation is added to the
pair-creation. An alternative method is the generation of subcritical series
expansions which works even for the case of the pure pair-creation process.
Differently from the supercritical case, the subcritical series yields
estimates that are compatible with numerical simulations
Experimentally Witnessing the Quantumness of Correlations
The quantification of quantum correlations (other than entanglement) usually
entails laboured numerical optimization procedures also demanding quantum state
tomographic methods. Thus it is interesting to have a laboratory friendly
witness for the nature of correlations. In this Letter we report a direct
experimental implementation of such a witness in a room temperature nuclear
magnetic resonance system. In our experiment the nature of correlations is
revealed by performing only few local magnetization measurements. We also
compare the witness results with those for the symmetric quantum discord and we
obtained a fairly good agreement
