General Static Axially-symmetric Solutions of (2+1)-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton Theory

We obtain the general static solutions of the axially symmetric (2+1)-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory by dimensionally reducing it to a 2-dimensional dilaton gravity theory. The solutions consist of the magnetically charged sector and the electrically charged sector. We illuminate the relationship between the two sectors by pointing out the transformations between them.Comment: 16 pages, revtex, a version to appear in Journal of Mathematical Physic

Determination of ∣Vcb∣|V_{cb}| from the polarization of vector meson in the semileptonic decay of BB and BcB_c meson

Since the degree of polarization of the vector particle in semileptonic decay strongly influences the decay width of the particles, it can be used as a measure of CKM matrix elements. We show that |V_{cb}| can be determined from the measurement of polarization of vector meson in B,B_c --> V l nu decay, where $V$ is vector meson.Comment: 11 pages, RevTe

Is Lavelle-McMullan transformation a really new symmetry in QED?

Lavelle-McMullan symmetry of QED is examined at classical and quantum levels. It is shown that Lavelle-McMullan symmetry does not give any new non-trivial information in QED by examining the Ward-Takahashi identities. Being inspired by the examination of Ward-Takahashi identity, we construct the generalized non-local and non-covariant symmetries of QED.Comment: LATEX, 9 pages, two figures generated by Feynma

Form Factors for Exclusive Semileptonic BB--Decays

We developed the new parton model approach for exclusive semileptonic decays of $B$-meson to $D,~D^*$ by extending the inclusive parton model, and by combining with the results of the HQET, motivated by Drell-Yan process. Without the nearest pole dominance ans\"atze, we {\bf derived} the dependences of hadronic form factors on $q^2$. We also calculated numerically the slope of the Isgur-Wise function, which is consistent with the experimental results.Comment: 20 pages, RevTex, 2 ps figure files(uuencoded in seperate file

Phenomenological Implications of the Topflavor Model

We explore phenomenologies of the topflavour model for the LEP experiment at $m_{_Z}$ scale and the atomic parity violation (APV) experiment in the $C_s$ atoms at low energies. Implications of the model on the $Z$ peak data are studied in terms of the precision variables $\epsilon_i$'s. We find that the LEP data give more stringent constraints on the model parameters than the APV data.Comment: 23 pages (including 5 .eps figs), ReVTeX, the 1st revised version, to appear in Phys. Lett.
