Study of one-dimensional nature of (Sr,Ba)_2Cu(PO_4)_2 and BaCuP_2O_7 via 31P NMR
The magnetic behavior of the low-dimensional phosphates (Sr,Ba)_2 Cu(PO_4)_2
and BaCuP_2O_7 was investigated by means of magnetic susceptibility and ^{31}P
nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements. We present here the NMR shift
K(T), the spin-lattice 1/T_1 and spin-spin 1/T_2 relaxation-rate data over a
wide temperature range 0.02 K < T < 300 K. The T-dependence of the NMR K(T) is
well described by the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain model with an
intrachain exchange of J/k_B = 165 K, 151 K, and 108 K in Sr_2Cu(PO_4)_2,
Ba_2Cu(PO_4)_2, and BaCuP_2O_7, respectively. Our measurements suggest the
presence of magnetic ordering at 0.8 K in BaCuP_2O_7 (J/k_B = 108 K). For all
the samples, we find that 1/T_1 is nearly T-independent at low-temperatures (1
K < T < 10 K), which is theoretically expected for 1D chains when relaxation is
dominated by fluctuations of the staggered susceptibility. At high
temperatures, 1/T_1 varies nearly linearly with temperature
31P NMR study of Na2CuP2O7: a S=1/2 two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnetic system
The magnetic properties of Na2CuP2O7 were investigated by means of 31P
nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity
measurements. We report the 31P NMR shift, the spin-lattice 1/T1, and spin-spin
1/T2 relaxation-rate data as a function of temperature T.
The temperature dependence of the NMR shift K(T) is well described by the
S=1/2 square lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (HAF) model with an
intraplanar exchange of J/k_B \simeq 18\pm2 K and a hyperfine coupling A =
(3533\pm185) Oe/mu_B. The 31P NMR spectrum was found to broaden abruptly below
T \sim 10 K signifying some kind of transition. However, no anomaly was noticed
in the bulk susceptibility data down to 1.8 K. The heat capacity appears to
have a weak maximum around 10 K. With decrease in temperatures, the
spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 decreases monotonically and appears to agree
well with the high temperature series expansion expression for a S = 1/2 2D
square lattice.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figures, submitted to J. Phys.: Cond. Ma
Testing Supergravity Grand Unification at Future Accelerator and Underground Experiments
The full parameter space of supergravity grand unified theory with
type proton decay is analysed using renormalization
group induced electroweak symmetry breaking under the restrictions that the
universal scalar mass and gluino mass are TeV (no extreme fine
tuning) and the Higgs triplet mass obeys . Future proton
decay experiments at SuperKamiokande or ICARUS can reach a sensitivity for the
mode of yr allowing a number of
predictions concerning the SUSY mass spectrum. Thus either the decay mode will be seen at these experiments or a
chargino of mass GeV will exist and hence be observable
at LEP2. Further, if yr,
then either the light Higgs has mass GeV or GeV i.e. either the light Higgs or the light chargino (or both) would be
observable at LEP2. Thus, the combination of future accelerator and future
underground experiments allow for strong experimental tests of this theory.Comment: 7 figures available upon request, CTP-TAMU-32/93, NUB-TH-3066/93 and

WMAP Data and Recent Developments in Supersymmetric Dark Matter
A brief review is given of the recent developments in the analyses of
supersymmetric dark matter. Chief among these is the very accurate
determination of the amount of cold dark matter in the universe from analyses
using WMAP data. The implications of this data for the mSUGRA parameter space
are analyzed. It is shown that the data admits solutions on the hyperbolic
branch (HB) of the radiative breaking of the electroweak symmetry. A part of
the hyperbolic branch lies in the so called inversion region where the LSP
neutralino becomes essentially a pure Higgsino and degenerate with
the next to the lightest neutralino and the light chargino
. Thus some of the conventional signals for the observation of
supersymmetry at colliders (e.g., the missing energy signals) do not operate in
this region. On the other hand the inversion region contains a high degree of
degeneracy of , , leading to coannihilations
which allow for the satisfaction of the WMAP relic density constraints deep on
the hyperbolic branch. Further, an analysis of the neutralino-proton cross
sections in this region reveals that this region can still be accessible to
dark matter experiments in the future. Constraints from and from
are discussed. Future prospects are also discussed.Comment: 15 pages Latex. Invited talk at the IV International Conference on

Quantum test of the Universality of Free Fall using rubidium and potassium
We report on an improved test of the Universality of Free Fall using a
rubidium-potassium dual-species matter wave interferometer. We describe our

potassium interferometer, as well as systematic effects affecting our
measurement. Our determination of the E\"otv\"os ratio yields

High Scale Physics Connection to LHC Data
The existing data appears to provide hints of an underlying high scale
theory. These arise from the gauge coupling unification, from the smallness of
the neutrino masses, and via a non-vanishing muon anomaly. An overview of high
scale models is given with a view to possible tests at the Large Hadron
Collider. Specifically we discuss here some generic approaches to deciphering
their signatures. We also consider an out of the box possibility of a four
generation model where the fourth generation is a mirror generation rather than
a sequential generation. Such a scenario can lead to some remarkably distinct
signatures at the LHC.Comment: 23 pages, no figures. Based on invited lectures at the 46th Course at
