e^+e^-\to (h A)\to bbbb in Abelian Extended Supersymmetric Standard Model

We discuss the $e^{+}e^{-}\to (h A)\to bbbb$ cross section in an Abelian extended SM. We work in that minimum of the scalar potential for which Higgs trilier coupling is greater than the soft mass parameters. We find that nex-to-lightest Higgs gives the essential contribution to the cross section in the small $Z-Z'$ mixing angle and leptophobic $Z'$ limit.Comment: 13 pages, 1 postscript figur

Investigations Of The Functional And Technological Properties Of Dough Semi-products Enriched With Dietary Supplements

The work is devoted to improving technologies of enriching food raw materials and products. The object of the research is dough semi-products of leavened, puff and unleavened dough, enriched with a dietary supplement, based on the chelate complex. The conducted studies are directed on investigating the evenness of distribution of microelements in the volume of dough semi-products and establishing the influence of a supplement on functional-technological properties of these semi-products. At that there were used methods of nuclear magnetic resonance, electronic paramagnetic resonance, low-temperature calorimetric method and rheological research methods. The method of nuclear magnetic resonance established that a dietary supplement, based on the chelate complex influences the mobility and interaction of water molecules with an environment in dough semi-products. The method of electronic paramagnetic resonance proved the evenness of distribution of a microelement of a dietary supplement by the volume of studied dough semi-product. Rheological and low-temperature calorimetric methods established that an introduced supplement favors a change of the qualitative and quantitative composition of system water of studied semi-products and changes their elastic properties. The obtained results proved the efficiency of using a powder-like supplement with stabilized chelates of metals in technologies of enriching food products

The Wilson loop from a Dyson equation

The Dyson equation proposed for planar temporal Wilson loops in the context of supersymmetric gauge theories is critically analysed thereby exhibiting its ingredients and approximations involved. We reveal its limitations and identify its range of applicability in non-supersymmetric gauge theories. In particular, we show that this equation is applicable only to strongly asymmetric planar Wilson loops (consisting of a long and a short pair of loop segments) and as a consequence the Wilsonian potential can be extracted only up to intermediate distances. By this equation the Wilson loop is exclusively determined by the gluon propagator. We solve the Dyson equation in Coulomb gauge for the temporal Wilson loop with the instantaneous part of the gluon propagator and for the spatial Wilson loop with the static gluon propagator obtained in the Hamiltonian approach to continuum Yang-Mills theory and on the lattice. In both cases we find a linearly rising color potential.Comment: 12 pages, 7 figure

Q-ball formation in the MSSM with explicit CP violation

Q-balls generically exist in the supersymmetric extensions of the standard model. Taking into account the additional sources of CP violation, which are naturally accomodated by the supersymmetric models, it is shown that the Q-ball matter depends additively on individual CP phases, whereas mass per unit charge in the Q-ball depends only on the relative phases. There are regions of the parameter space where there is no stable Q-ball solution in the CP-conserving limit whereas finite CP phases induce a stable Q-ball.Comment: 6 p

A note on the breathing mode of an elastic sphere in Newtonian and complex fluids

Experiments on the acoustic vibrations of elastic nanostructures in fluid media have been used to study the mechanical properties of materials, as well as for mechanical and biological sensing. The medium surrounding the nanostructure is typically modeled as a Newtonian fluid. A recent experiment however suggested that high-frequency longitudinal vibration of bipyramidal nanoparticles could trigger a viscoelastic response in water-glycerol mixtures [M. Pelton et al., "Viscoelastic flows in simple liquids generated by vibrating nanostructures," Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 244502 (2013)]. Motivated by these experimental studies, we first revisit a classical continuum mechanics problem of the purely radial vibration of an elastic sphere, also called the breathing mode, in a compressible viscous fluid, and then extend our analysis to a viscoelastic medium using the Maxwell fluid model. The effects of fluid compressibility and viscoelasticity are discussed. Although in the case of longitudinal vibration of bipyramidal nanoparticles, the effects of fluid compressibility were shown to be negligible, we demonstrate that it plays a significant role in the breathing mode of an elastic sphere. On the other hand, despite the different vibration modes, the breathing mode of a sphere triggers a viscoelastic response in water-glycerol mixtures similar to that triggered by the longitudinal vibration of bipyramidal nanoparticles. We also comment on the effect of fluid viscoelasticity on the idea of destroying virus particles by acoustic resonance

Slowdown and splitting of gap solitons in apodized Bragg gratings

We study the motion of gap solitons in two models of apodized nonlinear fiber Bragg gratings (BGs), with the local reflectivity (LR) varying along the fiber. A single step of LR, and a periodic array of alternating steps with opposite signs (a "Bragg superstructure") are considered. A challenging possibility is to slow down and eventually halt the soliton by passing it through the step of increasing reflectivity, thus capturing a pulse of standing light. First, we develop an analytical approach, assuming adiabatic evolution of the soliton, and making use of the energy conservation and balance equation for the momentum. Comparison with simulations shows that the analytical approximation is quite accurate (unless the inhomogeneity is too steep): the soliton is either transmitted across the step or bounces back. If the step is narrow, systematic simulations demontrate that the soliton splits into transmitted and reflected pulses (splitting of a BG soliton which hits a chirped grating was observed in experiments). Moving through the periodic "superstructure", the soliton accummulates distortion and suffers radiation loss if the structure is composed of narrow steps. The soliton moves without any loss or irreversible deformation through the array of sufficiently broad steps.Comment: to appear in a special issue on Wave-Optical Engineering, Journal of Modern Optic

Unitarity of the tree approximation to the Glauber AA amplitude for large A

The nucleus-nucleus Glauber amplitude in the tree approximation is studied for heavy participant nuclei. It is shown that, contrary to previous published results, it is not unitary for realistic values of nucleon-nucleon cross-sections.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure, 1 table. Submitted to Yad. Fi

One-Loop Effects in Supergravity Models with an Additional U(1)

For an Abelian extended Supergravity model, we investigate some important low energy parameters: \tan\beta, Z-Z' mixing angle, lightest CP-even Higgs mass bound, Z' mass, and effective \mu parameter. By integrating the RGE's from string scale down to the weak scale we constuct the scalar potential, and analyze the quantities above at the tree- and one-loop levels by including the contributions of top squarks and top quark in the effective potential.
