On Charmonia Survival Above Deconfinement
We study charmonium correlators and spectral functions at zero and finite
temperature using anisotropic lattices at several different lattice spacings.
We find evidence for survival of 1S charmonia states at leas till and
dissolution of 1P states at .Comment: contribution to the 29th Johns Hopkins Workshop in Theoretical

Nonlinearity of vacuum reggeons and exclusive diffractive production of vector mesons at HERA
The processes of exclusive photo- and electroproduction of vector mesons
(770), (1020) and (3096) at collision energies and transferred momenta squared are considered in
the framework of a phenomenological Regge-eikonal scheme with nonlinear Regge
trajectories in which their QCD asymptotic behavior is taken into account
explicitly. By comparison of available experimental data from ZEUS and H1
Collaborations with the model predictions it is demonstrated that corresponding
angular distributions and integrated cross-sections in the above-mentioned
kinematical range can be quantitatively described with use of two -even
vacuum Regge trajectories. These are the "soft" pomeron dominating the high
energy reactions without a hard scale and the "hard" pomeron giving an
essential contribution to photo- and electroproduction of heavy vector mesons
and deeply virtual electroproduction of light vector mesons.Comment: 25 pages, 12 figure

Line-dependent veiling in very active T Tauri Stars
The T Tauri stars with active accretion disks show veiled photospheric
spectra. This is supposedly due to non-photospheric continuum radiated by hot
spots beneath the accretion shocks at stellar surface and/or chromospheric
emission lines radiated by the post-shocked gas. The amount of veiling is often
considered as a measure of the mass-accretion rate. We analysed high-resolution
photospheric spectra of accreting T Tauri stars LkHa 321, V1331 Cyg, and AS 353
A with the aim of clarifying the nature of the line-dependent veiling. Each of
these objects shows a highly veiled, strong emission line spectrum and powerful
wind features indicating high rates of accretion and mass loss. Equivalent
widths of hundreds of weak photospheric lines were measured in the observed
spectra and compared with those in synthetic spectra with the same spectral
type. We found that the veiling is strongly line-dependent: larger in stronger
photospheric lines and weak or absent in the weakest ones. No dependence of
veiling on excitation potential within 0 to 5 eV was found. Different physical
processes responsible for these unusual veiling effects are discussed in the
framework of the magnetospheric accretion model. The observed veiling has two
origins: 1) an abnormal structure of stellar atmosphere heated up by the
accreting matter, and 2) a non-photospheric continuum radiated by a hot spot
with temperature lower than 10000 K. The true level of the veiling continuum
can be derived by measuring the weakest photospheric lines with equivalent
widths down to 10 m\AA. A limited spectral resolution and/or low
signal-to-noise ratio results in overestimation of the veiling continuum. In
the three very active stars, the veiling continuum is a minor contributor to
the observed veiling, while the major contribution comes from the
line-dependent veiling.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figures. Accepted for publication in Astronomy and

Feasibility of finite renormalization of particle mass in quantum electrodynamics
