The Spin Stiffness and the Transverse Susceptibility of the Half-filled Hubbard Model
The spin stiffness and the transverse susceptibility of the square lattice half-filled Hubbard model are calculated as a
function of the Hubbard parameter ratio by series expansions around the
Ising limit. We find that the calculated spin-stiffness, transverse
susceptibility, and sublattice magnetization for the Hubbard model smoothly
approach the Heisenberg values for large . The results are compared for
different with RPA and other numerical studies.Comment: 9 Revtex pages, 3 Postscript figures, Europhys. Lett. in pres

Constraints on the Inner Mass Profiles of Lensing Galaxies from Missing Odd Images
Most gravitational lens systems consist of two or four observable images. The
absence of detectable odd images allows us to place a lower limit on the
power-law slope of the inner mass profile of lensing galaxies. Using a sample
of six two-image radio-loud lens systems and assuming a singular power-law
surface density (Sigma proportional to r^{-beta}) for the inner several kpc of
the mass distribution, we find that there is less than a 10% probability that
the data are consistent with profile slopes beta < 0.80. Furthermore,
individual mass modeling yields beta > 0.85 for B0739+366 and beta > 0.91 for
B1030+074. Modeling central black holes as additional point masses changes the
constraints in these systems to beta > 0.84 and beta > 0.83, respectively. The
inner mass profiles of lensing galaxies are therefore not much shallower than
isothermal.Comment: Final published version, minor typos corrected, 13 page

Visualising ergonomics data for design
Existing ergonomics data are not effectively used by designers; this is mainly because the data are not presented in a designer-friendly format. In order to help designers make better use of ergonomics data, we explored the potential of representing existing ergonomics data in a more dynamic and visual way, and making them look more relevant to design. The Cambridge Engineering Selector (CES) was adopted to turn static ergonomics data into manipulative and comparative data sets. Contextual information in a visual format was added; clearer illustrations and scenarios relevant to design were developed; design case studies were compiled and linked to the relevant ergonomics data sets – the process resulted in a new design support tool: the ErgoCES. The tool was consequently brought to both design students and professionals for evaluation. The results suggested that the ErgoCES had helped making ergonomics data more accessible to designers, and many new features (e.g. scenarios and case studies) were highly valued by the designers. Among the participants, 100% of the design students and 79% of the professionals indicated that they would use the tool when it becomes widely available.The research project is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, Grant EP/F0 32145/1. The authors would like to thank all the participants for helping evaluating the tool.

Lensed Arcs and Inner Structure of Abell 697
We present new optical observations of the z=0.282 cluster Abell 697 from the
Keck II telescope. Images show an unusual disturbed structure in the cD halo
and a previously unknown faint gravitational lens arc. A spectrum of the arc
did not yield a redshift, but its spectrum and colors suggest it lies at z>1.3.
We construct models to reproduce the arc that show the potential is likely to
be highly elliptical. We suggest that this cluster may have undergone a recent
merger and is in the process of forming its cD galaxy. Analysis of X-ray data
from ROSAT and ASCA suggests that the merging process is sufficiently advanced
that the gas in the cluster has relaxed, and A697 lies near the L_x-T_x
relation for normal clusters.Comment: LaTeX; 12 pages, 3 figures, submitted to ApJ Letter
Evolution of Surface Deformations of Weakly-Bound Nuclei in the Continuum
We study weakly-bound deformed nuclei based on the coordinate-space Skyrme
Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approach, in which a large box is employed for treating
the continuum and surface diffuseness. Approaching the limit of core-halo
deformation decoupling, calculations found an exotic "egg"-like structure
consisting of a spherical core plus a prolate halo in Ne, in which the
resonant continuum plays an essential role. Generally the halo probability and
the decoupling effect in heavy nuclei are reduced compared to light nuclei, due
to denser level densities around Fermi surfaces. However, deformed halos in
medium-mass nuclei are possible with sparse levels of negative parity, for
example, in Ge. The surface deformations of pairing density
distributions are also influenced by the decoupling effect and are sensitive to
the effective pairing Hamiltonian.Comment: 5 pages and 5 figure
Measurements of SCRF cavity dynamic heat load in horizontal test system
The Horizontal Test System (HTS) at Fermilab is currently testing fully
assembled, dressed superconducting radio frequency (SCRF) cavities. These
cavities are cooled in a bath of superfluid helium at 1.8K. Dissipated RF power
from the cavities is a dynamic heat load on the cryogenic system. The magnitude
of heat flux from these cavities into the helium is also an important variable
for understanding cavity performance. Methods and hardware used to measure this
dynamic heat load are presented. Results are presented from several cavity
tests and testing accuracy is discussed.Comment: 6 pp. Cryogenic Engineering Conference and International Cryogenic
