Search for CP violation in D0 and D+ decays
A high statistics sample of photoproduced charm particles from the FOCUS
(E831) experiment at Fermilab has been used to search for CP violation in the
Cabibbo suppressed decay modes D+ to K-K+pi+, D0 to K-K+ and D0 to pi-pi+. We
have measured the following CP asymmetry parameters: A_CP(K-K+pi+) = +0.006 +/-
0.011 +/- 0.005, A_CP(K-K+) = -0.001 +/- 0.022 +/- 0.015 and A_CP(pi-pi+) =
+0.048 +/- 0.039 +/- 0.025 where the first error is statistical and the second
error is systematic. These asymmetries are consistent with zero with smaller
errors than previous measurements.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figure
The p(d,p)d and p(d,p)pn reactions as a tool for the study of the short range internal structure of the deuteron
In recent time the deuteron structure at short distances is often treated
from the point of view nonnucleonic degrees of freedom. In this paper the
measurements of T-odd polarization observables using tensor polarized deuteron
beam and polarized proton target or proton polarimeter are proposed to search
the quark configurations inside the deuteron.Comment: 12 pages, 8 Postscript figures, submitted in Phys.Atom.Nuc
Meson Production in p+d Reactions
The production of neutral and charged pions as well as eta mesons is studied
in the Delta and N* resonance region, respectively. Heavy A=3 recoils were
measured with the GEM detector. The differential cross sections covering the
full angular range are compared with model calculations.Comment: 4 pages, latex, 4 figures, talk presented at the XVIIth European

Band structures of P-, D-, and G-surfaces
We present a theoretical study on the band structures of the electron
constrained to move along triply-periodic minimal surfaces. Three well known
surfaces connected via Bonnet transformations, namely P-, D-, and G-surfaces,
are considered. The six-dimensional algebra of the Bonnet transformations [C.
Oguey and J.-F. Sadoc, J. Phys. I France 3, 839 (1993)] is used to prove that
the eigenstates for these surfaces are interrelated at a set of special points
in the Brillouin zones. The global connectivity of the band structures is,
however, different due to the topological differences of the surfaces. A
numerical investigation of the band structures as well as a detailed analysis
on their symmetry properties is presented. It is shown that the presence of
nodal lines are closely related to the symmetry properties. The present study
will provide a basis for understanding further the connection between the
topology and the band structures.Comment: 21 pages, 8 figures, 3 tables, submitted to Phys. Rev.
