    The Conflict between Bell-Zukowski Inequality and Bell-Mermin Inequality

    Full text link
    We consider a two-particle/two-setting Bell experiment to visualize the conflict between Bell-\.Zukowski inequality and Bell-Mermin inequality. The experiment is reproducible by local realistic theories which are not rotationally invariant. We found that the average value of the Bell-\.Zukowski operator can be evaluated only by the two-particle/two-setting Bell experiment in question. The Bell-\.Zukowski inequality reveals that the constructed local realistic models for the experiment are not rotationally invariant. That is, the two-particle Bell experiment in question reveals the conflict between Bell-\.Zukowski inequality and Bell-Mermin inequality. Our analysis has found the threshold visibility for the two-particle interference to reveal the conflict noted above. It is found that the threshold visibility agrees with the value to obtain a violation of the Bell-\.Zukowski inequality.Comment: To appear in Modern Physics Letters

    Constraints on the time variation of the fine structure constant by the 5-year WMAP data

    Full text link
    The constraints on the time variation of the fine structure constant at recombination epoch relative to its present value, Δα/α(αrecαnow)/αnow\Delta\alpha/\alpha \equiv (\alpha_{\mathrm{rec}} - \alpha_{\mathrm{now}})/\alpha_{\mathrm{now}}, are obtained from the analysis of the 5-year WMAP cosmic microwave background data. As a result of Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo analysis, it is found that, contrary to the analysis based on the previous WMAP data, the mean value of Δα/α=0.0009\Delta\alpha/\alpha=-0.0009 does not change significantly whether we use the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) measurement of the Hubble parameter as a prior or not. The resultant 95% confidence ranges of Δα/α\Delta\alpha/\alpha are 0.028<Δα/α<0.026-0.028 < \Delta\alpha/\alpha < 0.026 with HST prior and 0.050<Δα/α<0.042-0.050 < \Delta\alpha/\alpha < 0.042 without HST prior.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures; references adde

    Wide-Field Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of the NGC 6334 Region: A Nest of Infrared Reflection Nebulae

    Full text link
    We report the detection of eighteen infrared reflection nebulae (IRNe) in the JJ, HH, & KsKs linear polarimetric observations of the NGC 6334 massive star-formation complex, of which 16 IRNe are new discoveries. Our images cover \sim180 square arcminutes, one of the widest near-infrared polarization data in star-formation regions so far. These IRNe are most likely associated with embedded young OB stars at different evolutionary phases, showing a variety of sizes, morphologies, and polarization properties, which can be divided into four categories. We argue the different nebula characteristics to be a possible evolutionary sequence of circumstellar structures around young massive stars.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

    Some remarks on the hyperelliptic moduli of genus 3

    Full text link
    In 1967, Shioda \cite{Shi1} determined the ring of invariants of binary octavics and their syzygies using the symbolic method. We discover that the syzygies determined in \cite{Shi1} are incorrect. In this paper, we compute the correct equations among the invariants of the binary octavics and give necessary and sufficient conditions for two genus 3 hyperelliptic curves to be isomorphic over an algebraically closed field kk, chk2,3,5,7\ch k \neq 2, 3, 5, 7. For the first time, an explicit equation of the hyperelliptic moduli for genus 3 is computed in terms of absolute invariants.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1209.044

    A one-sided Prime Ideal Principle for noncommutative rings

    Full text link
    Completely prime right ideals are introduced as a one-sided generalization of the concept of a prime ideal in a commutative ring. Some of their basic properties are investigated, pointing out both similarities and differences between these right ideals and their commutative counterparts. We prove the Completely Prime Ideal Principle, a theorem stating that right ideals that are maximal in a specific sense must be completely prime. We offer a number of applications of the Completely Prime Ideal Principle arising from many diverse concepts in rings and modules. These applications show how completely prime right ideals control the one-sided structure of a ring, and they recover earlier theorems stating that certain noncommutative rings are domains (namely, proper right PCI rings and rings with the right restricted minimum condition that are not right artinian). In order to provide a deeper understanding of the set of completely prime right ideals in a general ring, we study the special subset of comonoform right ideals.Comment: 38 page

    Relative Riemann-Zariski spaces

    Full text link
    In this paper we study relative Riemann-Zariski spaces attached to a morphism of schemes and generalizing the classical Riemann-Zariski space of a field. We prove that similarly to the classical RZ spaces, the relative ones can be described either as projective limits of schemes in the category of locally ringed spaces or as certain spaces of valuations. We apply these spaces to prove the following two new results: a strong version of stable modification theorem for relative curves; a decomposition theorem which asserts that any separated morphism between quasi-compact and quasi-separated schemes factors as a composition of an affine morphism and a proper morphism. (In particular, we obtain a new proof of Nagata's compactification theorem.)Comment: 30 pages, the final version, to appear in Israel J. of Mat

    Exact Analysis of ESR Shift in the Spin-1/2 Heisenberg Antiferromagnetic Chain

    Full text link
    A systematic perturbation theory is developed for the ESR shift and is applied to the spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain. Using the Bethe ansatz technique, we exactly analyze the resonance shift in the first order of perturbative expansion with respect to an anisotropic exchange interaction. Exact result for the whole range of temperature and magnetic field, as well as asymptotic behavior in the low-temperature limit are presented. The obtained g-shift strongly depends on magnetic fields at low temperature, showing a significant deviation from the previous classical result.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures,to be published in Phys.
