On decays of Z' into unparticle stuff

We study the decay of a Z' - boson into U -unparticle and a photon. The extended Landau-Yang theorem is used. The clear photon signal would make the decay Z' \rightarrow \gamma U as an additional contribution mode for study of unparticle physics.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures, paper accepted for publication by Advances in High Energy Physics journa

Two-body Photodisintegration of 4^{4}He with Full Final State Interaction

The cross sections of the processes $^4$He($\gamma,p$)$^3$H and $^4$He($\gamma,n$)$^3$He are calculated taking into account the full final state interaction via the Lorentz integral transform (LIT) method. This is the first consistent microscopic calculation beyond the three--body breakup threshold. The results are obtained with a semirealistic central NN potential including also the Coulomb force. The cross sections show a pronounced dipole peak at 27 MeV which lies within the rather broad experimental band. At higher energies, where experimental uncertainties are considerably smaller, one finds a good agreement between theory and experiment. The calculated sum of three-- and four--body photodisintegration cross sections is also listed and is in fair agreement with the data.Comment: 18 pages, 6 figure

Exciton correlations in coupled quantum wells and their luminescence blue shift

In this paper we present a study of an exciton system where electrons and holes are confined in double quantum well structures. The dominating interaction between excitons in such systems is a dipole - dipole repulsion. We show that the tail of this interaction leads to a strong correlation between excitons and substantially affects the behavior of the system. Making use of qualitative arguments and estimates we develop a picture of the exciton - exciton correlations in the whole region of temperature and concentration where excitons exist. It appears that at low concentration degeneracy of the excitons is accompanied with strong multi-particle correlation so that the system cannot be considered as a gas. At high concentration the repulsion suppresses the quantum degeneracy down to temperatures that could be much lower than in a Bose gas with contact interaction. We calculate the blue shift of the exciton luminescence line which is a sensitive tool to observe the exciton - exciton correlations.Comment: 27 pages in PDF and DVI format, 8 figure

Radiative Losses in Plasma Accelerators

We investigate the dynamics of a relativistic electron in a strongly nonlinear plasma wave in terms of classical mechanics by taking into account the action of the radiative reaction force. The two limiting cases are considered. In the first case where the energy of the accelerated electrons is low, the electron makes many betatron oscillations during the acceleration. In the second case where the energy of the accelerated electrons is high, the betatron oscillation period is longer than the electron residence time in the accelerating phase. We show that the force of radiative friction can severely limit the rate of electron acceleration in a plasma accelerator.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figure

A short review of "DGP Specteroscopy"

In this paper we provide a short review of the main results developed in hep-th/0604086. We focus on linearised vacuum perturbations about the self-accelerating branch of solutions in the DGP model. These are shown to contain a ghost in the spectrum for any value of the brane tension. We also comment on hep-th/0607099, where some counter arguments have been presented.Comment: Minor typos correcte

The Lorentz Integral Transform (LIT) method and its applications to perturbation induced reactions

The LIT method has allowed ab initio calculations of electroweak cross sections in light nuclear systems. This review presents a description of the method from both a general and a more technical point of view, as well as a summary of the results obtained by its application. The remarkable features of the LIT approach, which make it particularly efficient in dealing with a general reaction involving continuum states, are underlined. Emphasis is given on the results obtained for electroweak cross sections of few--nucleon systems. Their implications for the present understanding of microscopic nuclear dynamics are discussed.Comment: 83 pages, 31 figures. Topical review. Corrected typo

A New Family of Fused Azolo[1,5- A[pteridines and Azolo[5,1-b]purines

The nitration of azolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-amines with several nitration agents (such as acetic nitric anhydride, nitronium tetrafluoroborate, and a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid) has been investigated. It has been shown that, depending on the conditions, the nitration of pyrazolopyrimidin-7-amines bearing electron-withdrawing groups in the pyrazole ring leads to nitration products in the pyrimidine and/or pyrazole ring. The nitration of triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-amines with "nitrating mixture"has been optimized, thus allowing us to obtain a series of 6-nitro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-amines, followed by their reduction into the corresponding [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6,7-diamines (yields 86-89%). The latter have been subjected to heterocyclization by a variety of electrophilic compounds (such as CS2, glyoxal, triethyl orthoformate) with the formation of five-or six-membered annulated cycles.

Rolling in the Higgs Model and Elliptic Functions

Asymptotic methods in nonlinear dynamics are used to improve perturbation theory results in the oscillations regime. However, for some problems of nonlinear dynamics, particularly in the case of Higgs (Duffing) equation and the Friedmann cosmological equations, not only small oscillations regime is of interest but also the regime of rolling (climbing), more precisely the rolling from a top (climbing to a top). In the Friedman cosmology, where the slow rolling regime is often used, the rolling from a top (not necessary slow) is of interest too. In the present work a method for approximate solution to the Higgs equation in the rolling regime is presented. It is shown that in order to improve perturbation theory in the rolling regime turns out to be effective not to use an expansion in trigonometric functions as it is done in case of small oscillations but use expansions in hyperbolic functions instead. This regime is investigated using the representation of the solution in terms of elliptic functions. An accuracy of the corresponding approximation is estimated.Comment: Latex, 36 Pages, 8 figures, typos correcte
