Gravitino and Axino SuperWIMPs
Gravitinos and axinos produced in the late decays of other supersymmetric
particles are well-motivated dark matter (DM) candidates, whose experimental
evidences are very distinctive and different from other standard candidates, as
thermal produced neutralinos in similar supersymmetric models. In particular,
charged sleptons could appear stable because of the length of its lifetime. The
direct production of such particles at both the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and
a future International Linear Collider (ILC) can give not only a clear
signature of supersymmetry but also the first non-gravitational evidence of
dark matter.Comment: 4 pages, LaTeX, 1 figure, Updated references. To appear in

Correlation between Tc and Lattice Parameters of Novel Superconducting NaxCoO2 yH2O
We synthesized the five batches of the samples of the novel P3 type
superconductor, Na(HO)CoOHO, by the
soft chemical process starting from -NaCoO. The chemical and
structural properties varied rather widely from batch to batch, with a result
that varied from 4.6 K to 3.2 K. The magnetic susceptibility above
shows upturn at low temperature as in the case of the P2 phase. The
seems to be well correlated to the lattice parameters.Comment: 2 pages, 2 figures, and 1 table, to be published in J. Phys. Soc.

Cluster derivation of Parisi's RSB solution for disordered systems
We propose a general scheme in which disordered systems are allowed to
sacrifice energy equi-partitioning and separate into a hierarchy of ergodic
sub-systems (clusters) with different characteristic time-scales and
temperatures. The details of the break-up follow from the requirement of
stationarity of the entropy of the slower cluster, at every level in the
hierarchy. We apply our ideas to the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, and show
how the Parisi solution can be {\it derived} quantitatively from plausible
physical principles. Our approach gives new insight into the physics behind
Parisi's solution and its relations with other theories, numerical experiments,
and short range models.Comment: 7 pages 5 figure
Is Karenia a synonym of Asterodinium-Brachidinium (Gymnodiniales, Dinophyceae)?
From material collected in open waters of the NW and Equatorial Pacific Ocean the detailed morphology of brachidiniaceans based on two specimens of Asterodinium gracile is reported for the first time. SEM observations showed that the straight apical groove, the
morphological characters and orientation of the cell body were similar to those described for species of Karenia. Brachidinium and Asterodinium showed high morphological variability in the length of the extensions and intermediate specimens with Karenia. Karenia-like cells that strongly resemble Brachidinium and Asterodinium but lacking the extensions co-occurred with the typical specimens. The life cycle and morphology of Karenia papilionacea should be investigated under natural conditions because of the strong similarity
with the brachidiniaceans
Non-magnetic pair-breaking effect on La(Fe_{1-x}Zn_{x})AsO_{0.85} studied by NMR and NQR
As and La NMR and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) studies
on Zn-substituted LaFeAsO have been performed to investigate the
Zn-impurity effects microscopically. Although superconductivity in
LaFeAsO disappears by 3% Zn substitution, we found that NMR/NQR
spectra and NMR physical quantities in the normal state are hardly changed,
indicating that the crystal structure and electronic states are not modified by
Zn substitution. Our results suggest that the suppression of superconductivity
by Zn substitution is not due to the change of the normal-state properties, but
due to strong non-magnetic pair-breaking effect to superconductivity.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, This paper was chosen as "Paper of Editors'
