    Two-photon correlations as a sign of sharp transition in quark-gluon plasma

    Get PDF
    The photon production arising due to time variation of the medium has been considered. The Hamilton formalism for photons in time-variable medium (plasma) has been developed with application to inclusive photon production. The results have been used for calculation of the photon production in the course of transition from quark-gluon phase to hadronic phase in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The relative strength of the effect as well as specific two- photon correlations have been evaluated. It has been demonstrated that the opposite side two-photon correlations are indicative of the sharp transition from the quark-gluon phase to hadrons.Comment: 23 pages, 2 figure

    Phobos and Deimos are sources of meteoroids

    Data of Pioneer 10 meteoroid penetration detectors were revised taking into account the orientation of detectors and the spacecraft velocity relative to the sporadic meteor flux. The meteor flux density increases as an exponent to the orbit of Mars for two times for the particles with masses greater than 10(exp -6) g and six times for the particles with masses greater than 10(exp -12) - 10(exp -9) g then decreases after the orbit. Ejections of secondary meteoroid particles from surfaces of Phobos and Deimos are a possible explanation for the increase in meteoroid flux

    Models of sporadic meteor body distributions

    Get PDF
    The distribution of orbital elements and flux density over the celestial sphere are the most common forms of representation of the meteor body distribution in the vicinity of the Earth's orbit. The determination of flux density distribution of sporadic meteor bodies was worked out. The method and its results are discussed

    Estimation of the particle-antiparticle correlation effect for pion production in heavy ion collisions

    Estimation of the back-to-back pi-pi correlations arising due to evolution of the pionic field in the course of pion production process is given for central heavy nucleus collisions at moderate energies.Comment: 6 LaTeX pages + 5 ps figure

    A theory of hyperfinite sets

    Get PDF
    We develop an axiomatic set theory -- the Theory of Hyperfinite Sets THS, which is based on the idea of existence of proper subclasses of big finite sets. We demonstrate how theorems of classical continuous mathematics can be transfered to THS, prove consistency of THS and present some applications.Comment: 28 page

    Novel relativistic plasma excitations in a gated two-dimensional electron system

    Full text link
    The microwave response of a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) covered by a conducting top gate is investigated in the relativistic regime for which the 2D conductivity σ2D>c/2π\sigma_{2 \rm{D}} > c/2\pi. Weakly damped plasma waves are excited in the gated region of the 2DES. The frequency and amplitude of the resulting plasma excitations show a very unusual dependence on the magnetic field, conductivity, gate geometry and separation from the 2DES. We show that such relativistic plasmons survive for temperatures up to 300 K, allowing for new room-temperature microwave and terahertz applications.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
