Magnetotail structures in a simulated Earth's magnetosphere
The structure of the magnetotail is investigated in a laboratory simulated magnetosphere. Particular emphasis is placed on the region of distant magnetotail where the closed field line region of the plasma sheet terminates and the process of reconnection takes place. Our study builds upon the previous investigation of the magnetotail where the main results were based on the magnetic field measurements in the tail region of the simulated magnetosphere. In this paper, more elaborate measurements of plasma flow and electric field are presented. Besides these measurements, this region of distant magnetotail is also explored by high resolution imaging with a gated optical imager (GOI) and by digital image analysis. These images clearly reveal a Y-type magnetic neutral line for the northward 'interplanetary' field (IMF) and a usual X-type for the southward IMF that confirms our previous results deduced from the magnetic field measurements. In the neighborhood of these neutral points a strong component of dawn to dusk electric field (E(sub y)) and a counterstreaming plasma flow is also observed. Plasma flow is measured by using a double sided Faraday cup which is also used to measure the y-component of tail current (J(sub y)) at different locations. These measurements reveal that the tail current is not carried by ions as previously thought, rather it is carried by electrons alone
Equivalence between two-dimensional alternating/random Ising model and the ground state of one-dimensional alternating/random XY chain
It is derived that the two-dimensional Ising model with alternating/random
interactions and with periodic/free boundary conditions is equivalent to the
ground state of the one-dimensional alternating/random XY model with the
corresponding periodic/free boundary conditions. This provides an exact
equivalence between a random rectangular Ising model, in which the
Griffiths-McCoy phase appears, and a random XY chain.Comment: 10 page
Decorrelation estimates for the eigenlevels of the discrete Anderson model in the localized regime
The purpose of the present work is to establish decorrelation estimates for
the locally renormalized eigenvalues of the discrete Anderson model near two
distinct energies inside the localization region. In dimension one, we prove
these estimates at all energies. In higher dimensions, the energies are
required to be sufficiently far apart from each other

The repulsion between localization centers in the Anderson model
In this note we show that, a simple combination of deep results in the theory
of random Schr\"odinger operators yields a quantitative estimate of the fact
that the localization centers become far apart, as corresponding energies are
close together
PHASE, a Monte Carlo event generator for six-fermion physics at the LHC
PHASE is a new event generator dedicated to the study of Standard Model
processes with six fermions in the final state at the LHC. The code is intended
for analyses of vector boson scattering, Higgs search, three gauge boson
production, and top physics. This first version of the program describes final
states characterized by the presence of one neutrino, , at
O(). PHASE is based on a new iterative-adaptive multichannel
technique, and employs exact leading order matrix elements. The code can
generate unweighted events for any subset of all available final states. The
produced parton-level events carry full information on their colour and flavour
structure, enabling the evolution of the partons into fully hadronised final
states. An interface to hadronization packages is provided via the Les Houches
Protocol.Comment: 27 pages, Latex, 6 figure
