Soft-collinear effects in prompt photon production

We extend next-to-leading logarithmic threshold and joint resummation for prompt photon production to include leading collinear effects. The impact of these effects is assessed for both fixed-target and collider kinematics. We find them in general to be small, but noticeable.Comment: 14 pages, 12 figures, added comment on fragmentation contribution and one more reference. Version to appear in Phys. Rev.

A solid dispersion based on milk-micelle as a drug-carrier for the enhancement of the aqueous solubility of ritonavir

The goal of present investigation was to evaluate the feasibility of formulating a solid-dispersion using milk-micelles as drug-carriers, to enhance the aqueous solubility of ritonavir

Formulation of a drug-phospholipid complex (Naturosome) to enhance the aqueous solubility of standardized extract of Centella asiastica (SCE)

Purpose: To evaluate the enhancement of aqueous solubility of standardized extract of Centella asiastica, a natural drug with known anti- Alzheimer’s activity, by formulating its complex (Naturosome) with a phospholipid - Phospholipon® 90H

Collective modes and electromagnetic response of a chiral superconductor

Motivated by the recent controversy surrounding the Kerr effect measurements in strontium ruthenate \cite{xia:167002}, we examine the electromagnetic response of a clean chiral p-wave superconductor. When the contributions of the collective modes are accounted for, the Hall response in a clean chiral superconductor is smaller by several orders of magnitude than previous theoretical predictions and is too small to explain the experiment. We also uncover some unusual features of the collective modes of a chiral superconductor, namely, that they are not purely longitudinal and couple to external transverse fields.Comment: 8 page

Airy functions over local fields

Airy integrals are very classical but in recent years they have been generalized to higher dimensions and these generalizations have proved to be very useful in studying the topology of the moduli spaces of curves. We study a natural generalization of these integrals when the ground field is a non-archimedean local field such as the field of p-adic numbers. We prove that the p-adic Airy integrals are locally constant functions of moderate growth and present evidence that the Airy integrals associated to compact p-adic Lie groups also have these properties.Comment: Minor change
