Higgs-photon associated production at colliders
We present complete analytical expressions for the amplitudes of the process
. The calculation is performed using nonlinear
gauges, which significantly simplifies both the actual analytical calculation
and the check of its gauge invariance. After comparing our results with a
previous numerical calculation, we extend the range of Higgs masses and center
of mass energies to those appropriate to LEP 200 and a future linear collider.Comment: To appear in PRD. 18 pages latex, uses REVTEX; 5 postscript figure
Photons, neutrinos and optical activity
We compute the one-loop helicity amplitudes for low-energy
scattering and its crossed channels in the standard
model with massless neutrinos. In the center of mass, with , the cross sections for these channels grow roughly
as . The scattered photons in the elastic channel are circularly
polarized and the net value of the polarization is non-zero. We also present a
discussion of the optical activity of a sea of neutrinos and estimate the
values of its index of refraction and rotary power.Comment: 9 pages, ReVTeX4, 6 figures include
High energy photon-neutrino elastic scattering
The one-loop helicity amplitudes for the elastic scattering process
in the Standard Model are computed at high center of
mass energies. A general decomposition of the amplitudes is utilized to
investigate the validity of some of the key features of our results. In the
center of mass, where , the cross section grows roughly as
to near the threshold for -boson production, .
Although suppressed at low energies, we find that the elastic cross section
exceeds the cross section for when
GeV. We demonstrate that the scattered photons are circularly polarized and the
net value of the polarization is non-zero. Astrophysical implications of high
energy photon-neutrino scattering are discussed.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, RevTeX
Analysis of Intelligent Classifiers and Enhancing the Detection Accuracy for Intrusion Detection System
In this paper we discuss and analyze some of the intelligent classifiers
which allows for automatic detection and classification of networks attacks for
any intrusion detection system. We will proceed initially with their analysis
using the WEKA software to work with the classifiers on a well-known IDS
(Intrusion Detection Systems) dataset like NSL-KDD dataset. The NSL-KDD dataset
of network attacks was created in a military network by MIT Lincoln Labs. Then
we will discuss and experiment some of the hybrid AI (Artificial Intelligence)
classifiers that can be used for IDS, and finally we developed a Java software
with three most efficient classifiers and compared it with other options. The
outputs would show the detection accuracy and efficiency of the single and
combined classifiers used
Production of Boson Pairs at Photon Linear Colliders
The pair production rate in high energy collisions is
evaluated with photons from laser backscattering. We find that searching for
the Standard Model Higgs boson with a mass up to, or slightly larger than, 400
GeV via the final state is possible via photon fusion with backscattered
laser photons at a linear collider with energies in the range 600 GeV
1000 GeV.Comment: 18 pages in REVTEX, Figures available upon request,

Form Factors and QCD in Spacelike and Timelike Region
We analyze the basic hard exclusive processes: \pi\gamma*\gamma - transition,
pion and nucleon electromagnetic form factors, and discuss the analytic
continuation of QCD formulas from the spacelike q^2<0 to the timelike region
q^2 >0 of the relevant momentum transfers. We describe the construction of the
timelike version of the coupling constant \alpha_s. We show that due to the
analytic continuation of the collinear logarithms each eigenfunction of the
evolution equation acqiures a phase factor and investigate the resulting
interference effects which are shown to be very small. We found no sources for
the K-factor-type enhancements in the perturbative QCD contribution to the
hadronic form factors. To study the soft part of the pion electromagnetic form
factor, we use a QCD sum rule inspired model and show that there are
non-canceling Sudakov double logarithms which result in a K-factor-type
enhancement in the timelike region.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX; a few typos corrected, references adde

Natural disturbance impacts on trade-offs and co-benefits of forest biodiversity and carbon
With accelerating environmental change, understanding forest disturbance impacts on trade-offs between biodiversity and carbon dynamics is of high socio-economic importance. Most studies, however, have assessed immediate or short-term effects of disturbance, while long-term impacts remain poorly understood. Using a tree-ring-based approach, we analysed the effect of 250 years of disturbances on present-day biodiversity indicators and carbon dynamics in primary forests. Disturbance legacies spanning centuries shaped contemporary forest co-benefits and trade-offs, with contrasting, local-scale effects. Disturbances enhanced carbon sequestration, reaching maximum rates within a comparatively narrow post-disturbance window (up to 50 years). Concurrently, disturbance diminished aboveground carbon storage, which gradually returned to peak levels over centuries. Temporal patterns in biodiversity potential were bimodal; the first maximum coincided with the short-term post-disturbance carbon sequestration peak, and the second occurred during periods of maximum carbon storage in complex old-growth forest. Despite fluctuating local-scale trade-offs, forest biodiversity and carbon storage remained stable across the broader study region, and our data support a positive relationship between carbon stocks and biodiversity potential. These findings underscore the interdependencies of forest processes, and highlight the necessity of large-scale conservation programmes to effectively promote both biodiversity and long-term carbon storage, particularly given the accelerating global biodiversity and climate crises
