Large-scale Ferrofluid Simulations on Graphics Processing Units
We present an approach to molecular-dynamics simulations of ferrofluids on
graphics processing units (GPUs). Our numerical scheme is based on a
GPU-oriented modification of the Barnes-Hut (BH) algorithm designed to increase
the parallelism of computations. For an ensemble consisting of one million of
ferromagnetic particles, the performance of the proposed algorithm on a Tesla
M2050 GPU demonstrated a computational-time speed-up of four order of magnitude
compared to the performance of the sequential All-Pairs (AP) algorithm on a
single-core CPU, and two order of magnitude compared to the performance of the
optimized AP algorithm on the GPU. The accuracy of the scheme is corroborated
by comparing the results of numerical simulations with theoretical predictions
The static interaction at small distances and OPE violating terms
Nonperturbative contribution to the one-gluon exchange produces a universal
linear term in the static potential at small distances . Its role in the resolution of long--standing
discrepancies in the fine splitting of heavy quarkonia and improved agreement
with lattice data for static potentials is discussed, as well as implications
for OPE violating terms in other processes.Comment: Latex, 5 pages, to be published in JETP Let
Effective action of magnetic monopole in three-dimensional electrodynamics with massless matter and gauge theories of superconductivity
We compute one-loop effective action of magnetic monopole in
three-dimensional electrodynamics of massless bosons and fermions and find that
it contains an infrared logarithm. So, when the number of massless matter
species is sufficiently large, monopoles are suppressed and in the weak
coupling limit charged particles are unconfined. This result provides some
support to gauge theories of high-temperature superconductors. It also provides
a mechanism by which interlayer tunneling of excitations with one unit of the
ordinary electric charge can be suppressed while that of a doubly charged
object is allowed.Comment: 8 pages, LATEX, UCLA/93/TEP/41 (the last sentence of the paragraph

Anomalous Negative Magnetoresistance Caused by Non-Markovian Effects
A theory of recently discovered anomalous low-field magnetoresistance is
developed for the system of two-dimensional electrons scattered by hard disks
of radius randomly distributed with concentration For small magnetic
fields the magentoresistance is found to be parabolic and inversely
proportional to the gas parameter, With increasing field the magnetoresistance becomes linear
in a good agreement with the
experiment and numerical simulations.Comment: 4 pages RevTeX, 5 figure
Decay constants of the heavy-light mesons from the field correlator method
Meson Green's functions and decay constants in different
channels are calculated using the Field Correlator Method. Both,
spectrum and , appear to be expressed only through universal
constants: the string tension , , and the pole quark masses.
For the -wave states the calculated masses agree with the experimental
numbers within MeV. For the and mesons the values of are equal to 210(10) and 260(10) MeV, respectively, and their ratio
=1.24(3) agrees with recent CLEO experiment. The values MeV are obtained for the , , and mesons
with the ratio =1.19(2) and =1.14(2). The decay constants
for the first radial excitations as well as the decay constants
in the vector channel are also calculated. The difference of
about 20% between and , and directly follows
from our analytical formulas.Comment: 37 pages, 10 tables, RevTeX
Renormalization Group and Infinite Algebraic Structure in D-Dimensional Conformal Field Theory
We consider scalar field theory in the D-dimensional space with nontrivial
metric and local action functional of most general form. It is possible to
construct for this model a generalization of renormalization procedure and
RG-equations. In the fixed point the diffeomorphism and Weyl transformations
generate an infinite algebraic structure of D-Dimensional conformal field
theory models. The Wilson expansion and crossing symmetry enable to obtain sum
rules for dimensions of composite operators and Wilson coefficients.Comment: 16 page
