Hawking Radiation from Non-Extremal D1-D5 Black Hole via Anomalies
We take the method of anomaly cancellation for the derivation of Hawking
radiation initiated by Robinson and Wilczek, and apply it to the non-extremal
five-dimensional D1-D5 black hole in string theory. The fluxes of the electric
charge flow and the energy-momentum tensor from the black hole are obtained.
They are shown to match exactly with those of the two-dimensional black body
radiation at the Hawking temperature.Comment: 14 page
Aspects of Confinement and Chiral Dynamics in 2-d QED at Finite Temperature
We evaluate the Polyakov loop and string tension at zero and finite
temperature in Using bozonization the problem is reduced to solving
the Schr\"odinger equation with a particular potential determined by the ground
state. In the presence of two sources of opposite charges the vacuum angle
parameter changes by , independent of the number of
flavors. This, in turn, alters the chiral condensate. Particularly, in the one
flavor case through a simple computer algorithm, we explore the chiral dynamics
of a heavy fermion.Comment: 4 pages, 2 ps files, uses sprocl.sty. To appear in Proceedings of

Confinement and Chiral Dynamics in the Multi-flavor Schwinger Model
Two-dimensional QED with flavor fermions is solved at zero and finite
temperature with arbitrary fermion masses to explore QCD physics such as chiral
condensate and string tension. The problem is reduced to solving a
Schr\"odinger equation for degrees of freedom with a specific potential
determined by the ground state of the Schr\"odinger problem itself.Comment: 9 pages. 3 ps files and sprocl.sty attached. To appear in the

EffectiveSan: Type and Memory Error Detection using Dynamically Typed C/C++
Low-level programming languages with weak/static type systems, such as C and
C++, are vulnerable to errors relating to the misuse of memory at runtime, such
as (sub-)object bounds overflows, (re)use-after-free, and type confusion. Such
errors account for many security and other undefined behavior bugs for programs
written in these languages. In this paper, we introduce the notion of
dynamically typed C/C++, which aims to detect such errors by dynamically
checking the "effective type" of each object before use at runtime. We also
present an implementation of dynamically typed C/C++ in the form of the
Effective Type Sanitizer (EffectiveSan). EffectiveSan enforces type and memory
safety using a combination of low-fat pointers, type meta data and type/bounds
check instrumentation. We evaluate EffectiveSan against the SPEC2006 benchmark
suite and the Firefox web browser, and detect several new type and memory
errors. We also show that EffectiveSan achieves high compatibility and
reasonable overheads for the given error coverage. Finally, we highlight that
EffectiveSan is one of only a few tools that can detect sub-object bounds
errors, and uses a novel approach (dynamic type checking) to do so.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of 39th ACM SIGPLAN Conference on

Anomalies, Horizons and Hawking radiation
Hawking radiation is obtained from the Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m blackhole with
a global monopole and the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger blackhole falling in
the class of the most general spherically symmetric blackholes
, using only chiral anomaly near the event horizon and
covariant boundary condition at the event horizon. The approach differs from
the anomaly cancellation approach since apart from the covariant boundary
condition, the chiral anomaly near the horizon is the only input to derive the
Hawking flux.Comment: minor corrections made, To appear in Euro. Phys. Letter
Standardisation of magnetic nanoparticles in liquid suspension
Suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles offer diverse opportunities for technology innovation, spanning a large number of industry sectors from imaging and actuation based applications in biomedicine and biotechnology, through large-scale environmental remediation uses such as water purification, to engineering-based applications such as position-controlled lubricants and soaps. Continuous advances in their manufacture have produced an ever-growing range of products, each with their own unique properties. At the same time, the characterisation of magnetic nanoparticles is often complex, and expert knowledge is needed to correctly interpret the measurement data. In many cases, the stringent requirements of the end-user technologies dictate that magnetic nanoparticle products should be clearly defined, well characterised, consistent and safe; or to put it another way—standardised. The aims of this document are to outline the concepts and terminology necessary for discussion of magnetic nanoparticles, to examine the current state-of-the-art in characterisation methods necessary for the most prominent applications of magnetic nanoparticle suspensions, to suggest a possible structure for the future development of standardisation within the field, and to identify areas and topics which deserve to be the focus of future work items. We discuss potential roadmaps for the future standardisation of this developing industry, and the likely challenges to be encountered along the way
Hawking Radiation of Black p-Branes from Gravitational Anomaly
We investigate the Hawking radiation of black -branes of superstring
theories using the method of anomaly cancelation, specially, we use the method
of [S. Iso, H. Umetsu and F. Wilczek, {\sl Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 96}, 151302
(2006); {\sl Phys. Rev. D} {\bf 74}, 044017 (2006)]. The metrics of black
-branes are spherically symmetric, but not the Schwarzschild type. In order
to simplify the calculation, we first make a coordinate transformation to
transform the metric to the Schwarzschild type. Then we calculate its
energy-momentum flux from the method of anomaly cancelation of the above
mentioned references. The obtained energy-momentum flux is equal to a black
body radiation, the thermodynamic temperature of the radiation is equal to its
Hawking temperature. And we find that the results are not changed for the
original non-Schwarzschild type spherically symmetric metric.Comment: 19 pages Latex, some mistakes correcte
Equivalence of Several Chern-Simons Matter Models
Not only does Chern-Simons (CS) coupling characterize statistics, but also
spin and scaling dimension of matter fields. We demonstrate spin transmutation
in relativistic CS matter theory, and moreover show equivalence of several
models. We study CS vector model in some details, which provide consistent
check to the assertion of the equivalence.Comment: latex, 7page, IFT-478-UNC/NUP-A-93-15 A version within the length
