Quantum-corrected self-dual black hole entropy in tunneling formalism with GUP

In this paper we focus on the Hamilton-Jacobi method to determine the entropy of a self-dual black hole by using linear and quadratic GUPs(generalized uncertainty principles). We have obtained the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of self-dual black holes and its quantum corrections that are logarithm and also of several other types.Comment: Latex, 7 pages, no figure.

Dynamical instabilities in density-dependent hadronic relativistic models

Unstable modes in asymmetric nuclear matter (ANM) at subsaturation densities are studied in the framework of relativistic mean-field density-dependent hadron models. The size of the instabilities that drive the system are calculated and a comparison with results obtained within the non-linear Walecka model is presented. The distillation and anti-distillation effects are discussed.Comment: 8 pages, 8 Postscript figures. Submitted for publication in Phys. Rev.

Gravitational Aharonov-Bohm effect due to noncommutative BTZ black hole

In this paper we consider the scattering of massless planar scalar waves by a noncommutative BTZ black hole. We compute the differential cross section via the partial wave approach, and we mainly show that the scattering of planar waves leads to a modified Aharonov-Bohm effect due to spacetime noncommutativityComment: 6 pages, latex, no figures.

Dynamics of deviations from the Gaussian state in a freely cooling homogeneous system of smooth inelastic particles

The time dependence of deviations from the Gaussian state in a freely cooling homogeneous system of smooth inelastically colliding spheres is investigated by kinetic theory. We determine the full time dependence of the coefficients of an expansion around the Gaussian state in Generalized Laguerre polynomials. Approximating this system of equations to sixth order, we find that the asymptotic state, where the mean energy T follows Haff's law with time independent cooling rate, is reached within a few collisions per particle. Two-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations confirm our results and show exponential behavior in the high-energy tails.Comment: 11 pages, 13 eps figures, to be published in Granular Matte

Symmetry-preserving contact interaction model for heavy-light mesons

We use a symmetry-preserving regularization method of ultraviolet divergences in a vector-vector contact interac- tion model for low-energy QCD. The contact interaction is a representation of nonperturbative kernels used Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations. The regularization method is based on a subtraction scheme that avoids standard steps in the evaluation of divergent integrals that invariably lead to symmetry violation. Aiming at the study of heavy-light mesons, we have implemented the method to the pseudoscalar pion and Kaon mesons. We have solved the Dyson-Schwinger equation for the u, d and s quark propagators, and obtained the bound-state Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes in a way that the Ward-Green-Takahashi identities reflecting global symmetries of the model are satisfied for arbitrary routing of the momenta running in loop integrals
