Chiral asymmetry during the EWPT from CP-violating scattering off bubble walls
We compute a net electric current during a first order EWPT arising from the
asymmetric propagation of fermion chiral modes due to a CP-violating
interaction with the Higgs. The interaction is quantified in terms of a
CP-violating phase in the bubble wall that separate both false and true vacuum
phases. We comment on the possibility of this current to generate a seed
magnetic field and its implications for primordial magne- togenesis in the
early Universe.Comment: To appear in the proceedings of the XLVII of the International

On Types of Elliptic Pseudoprimes
We generalize the notions of elliptic pseudoprimes and elliptic Carmichael
numbers introduced by Silverman to analogues of Euler-Jacobi and strong
pseudoprimes. We investigate the relationships among Euler Elliptic Carmichael
numbers , strong elliptic Carmichael numbers, products of anomalous primes and
elliptic Korselt numbers of Type I: The former two of these are introduced in
this paper, and the latter two of these were introduced by Mazur (1973) and
Silverman (2012) respectively. In particular, we expand upon a previous work of
Babinkostova et al. by proving a conjecture about the density of certain
elliptic Korselt numbers of Type I that are products of anomalous primes.Comment: Revised for publication. 33 page
Probing the ZZgamma and Zgammagamma Couplings Through the Process e+e- --> nu anti-nu gamma
We study the sensitivity for testing the anomalous triple gauge couplings
and via the process
at high energy linear colliders. For integrated luminosities of 500
and center of mass energies between 0.5 and 1.5 , we find that this
process can provide tests of the triple neutral gauge boson couplings of order
, one order of magnitude lower than the standard model prediction.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure
Intrinsic versus super-rough anomalous scaling in spontaneous imbibition
We study spontaneous imbibition using a phase field model in a two
dimensional system with a dichotomic quenched noise. By imposing a constant
pressure at the origin, we study the case when the interface
advances at low velocities, obtaining the scaling exponents ,
and within the intrinsic
anomalous scaling scenario. These results are in quite good agreement with
experimental data recently published. Likewise, when we increase the interface
velocity, the resulting scaling exponents are , and . Moreover, we observe that the local
properties of the interface change from a super-rough to an intrinsic anomalous
description when the contrast between the two values of the dichotomic noise is
increased. From a linearized interface equation we can compute analytically the
global scaling exponents which are comparable to the numerical results,
introducing some properties of the quenched noise.Comment: Accepted for publication in Physical Review
Prompt photon yield and coefficient from gluon fusion induced by magnetic field in heavy-ion collision
We compute the production of prompt photons and the harmonic
coefficient in relativistic heavy-ion collisions induced by gluon fusion in the
presence of an intense magnetic field, during the early stages of the reaction.
The calculations take into account several parameters which are relevant to the
description of the experimental transverse momentum distribution, and elliptic
flow for RHIC and LHC energies. The main imput is the strength of the magnetic
field which varies in magnitude from 1 to 3 times the pion mass squared, and
allows the gluon fusion that otherwise is forbidden in the absence of the
field. The high gluon occupation number and the value of the saturation scale
also play an important role in our calculation, as well as a flow velocity and
geometrical factors. Our results support the idea that the origin of at least
some of the photon excess observed in heavy-ion experiments may arise from
magnetic field induced processes, and gives a good description of the
experimental data.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, conference paper from ISMD 201
