Naturalness in testable type II seesaw scenarios
New physics coupling to the Higgs sector of the Standard Model can lead to
dangerously large corrections to the Higgs mass. We investigate this problem in
the type II seesaw model for neutrino mass, where a weak scalar triplet is
introduced. The interplay of direct and indirect constraints on the type II
seesaw model with its contribution to the Higgs mass is analyzed. The focus
lies on testable triplet masses and (sub) eV-scale triplet vacuum expectation
values. We identify scenarios that are testable in collider and/or lepton
flavor violation experiments, while satisfying the Higgs naturalness criterion.Comment: 18 pages, 8 figures, 2 table

Extensive population synthesis of isolated neutron stars with field decay
We perform population synthesis studies of different types of neutron stars
taking into account the magnetic field decay. For the first time, we confront
our results with observations using {\it simultaneously} the Log N -- Log S
distribution for nearby isolated neutron stars, the Log N -- Log L distribution
for magnetars, and the distribution of radio pulsars in the --
diagram. We find that our theoretical model is consistent with all sets of data
if the initial magnetic field distribution function follows a log-normal law
with and . The
typical scenario includes about 10% of neutron stars born as magnetars,
significant magnetic field decay during the first million years of a NS life.
Evolutionary links between different subclasses may exist, although robust
conclusions are not yet possible.
We apply the obtained field distribution and the model of decay to study
long-term evolution of neuton stars till the stage of accretion from the
interstellar medium. It is shown that though the subsonic propeller stage can
be relatively long, initially highly magnetized neutron stars ( G) reach the accretion regime within the Galactic lifetime if their
kick velocities are not too large. The fact that in previous studies made 10
years ago, such objects were not considered results in a slight increase of the
Accretor fraction in comparison with earlier conclusions. Most of the neutron
stars similar to the Magnificent seven are expected to become accreting from
the interstellar medium after few billion years of their evolution. They are
the main predecestors of accreting isolated neutron stars.Comment: 4 pages, conference "Astrophysics of Neutron Stars - 2010" in honor

Energy versus information based estimations of dissipation using a pair of magnetic colloidal particles
Using the framework of stochastic thermodynamics, we present an experimental
study of a doublet of magnetic colloidal particles which is manipulated by a
time-dependent magnetic field. Due to hydrodynamic interactions, each bead
experiences a state-dependent friction, which we characterize using a
hydrodynamic model. In this work, we compare two estimates of the dissipation
in this system: the first one is energy based since it relies on the measured
interaction potential, while the second one is information based since it uses
only the information content of the trajectories. While the latter only offers
a lower bound of the former, we find it to be simple to implement and of
general applicability to more complex systems.Comment: Main text: 5 pages, 4 figures. Supplementary material: 5 pages, 5
