Remote sensing as an aid to route evaluation for relocated Louisiana Highway 1

Aerial photography in the form of color infrared and color positive transparencies was used as an aid for evaluation of the route proposed for relocated Louisiana Highway 1, between LaRose and Golden Meadows, in South Louisiana

On the Stability of Black Holes at the LHC

The eventual production of mini black holes by proton-proton collisions at the LHC is predicted by theories with large extra dimensions resolvable at the Tev scale of energies. It is expected that these black holes evaporate shortly after its production as a consequence of the Hawking radiation. We show that for theories based on the ADS/CFT correspondence, the produced black holes may have an unstable horizon, which grows proportionally to the square of the distance to the collision point.Comment: 3 page

Mathematical Support to Braneworld Theory

The braneworld theory appear with the purpose of solving the problem of the hierarchy of the fundamental interactions. The perspectives of the theory emerge as a new physics, for example, deviation of the law of Newton's gravity. One of the principles of the theory is to suppose that the braneworld is local submanifold in a space of high dimension, the bulk, solution of Einstein's equations in high dimension. In this paper we approach the mathematical consistency of this theory with a new proof of the fundamental theorem of submanifolds for case of semi-Riemannian manifolds. This theorem consist an essential mathematical support for this new theory. We find the integrability conditions for the existence of space-time submanifolds in a pseudo-Euclidean space.

The Embedding of Schwarzschild in Braneworld

The braneworlds models were inspired partly by Kaluza-Klein's theory, where both the gravitational and the gauge fields are obtained from the geometry of a higher dimensional space. The positive aspects of these models consist in perspectives of modifications it could bring in to particle physics, such as: unification in a TeV scale, quantum gravity in this scale and deviation of Newton's law for small distances. One of the principles of these models is to suppose that all space-times can be embedded in a bulk of higher dimension. The main result in these notes is a theorem showing a mathematical inconsistency of the Randall-Sundrum braneworld model, namely that the Schwarzschild space-time cannot be embedded locally and isometrically in a five dimensional bulk with constant curvature,(for example AdS-5). From the point of view of semi-Riemannian geometry this last result represents a serious restriction to the Randall-Sundrum's braneworld model.Comment: Published in the Int. J. Theor. Phys, 200
