Relation between quark and gluon condensates from QCD sum rules

A new relation between $\rho$-meson mass, weak $\pi$-meson decay constant, quark and gluon condensates is derived from the QCD sum rules. As a byproduct an explanation for the dominance of $\rho\rho$-decay for the $f_0(1370)$-meson is proposed.Comment: 7 pages, submitted to Phys. Lett.

Illustrative Model for Parity Doubling of Energy Levels

A one-dimensional quantum mechanical model possessing mass gap, a gapless excitation, and an approximate parity doubling of energy levels is constructed basing on heuristic QCD-inspired arguments. The model may serve for illustrative purposes in considering the related dynamical phenomena in particle and nuclear physics.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figur

Spectrum Sensing for Cognitive Radio Systems Through Primary User Activity Prediction

Traditional spectrum sensing techniques such as energy detection, for instance, can sense the spectrum only when the cognitive radio (CR) is is not in operation. This constraint is relaxed recently by some blind source separation techniques in which the CR can operate during spectrum sensing. The proposed method in this paper uses the fact that the primary spectrum usage is correlated across time and follows a predictable behavior. More precisely, we propose a new spectrum sensing method that can be trained over time to predict the primary user's activity and sense the spectrum even while the CR user is in operation. Performance achieved by the proposed method is compared to classical spectrum sensing methods. Simulation results provided in terms of receiver operating characteristic curves indicate that in addition to the interesting feature that the CR can transmit during spectrum sensing, the proposed method outperforms conventional spectrum sensing techniques

Wormholes and Off-Diagonal Solutions in f(R,T), Einstein and Finsler Gravity Theories

The aims of this work are 1) to sketch a proof that there are such parameterizations of the local frame and canonical connection structures when the gravitational field equations in f(R,T)-modified gravity, MG, can be integrated in generic off-diagonal forms with metrics depending on all spacetime coordinates and 2) to provide some examples of exact solutions.Comment: 4 pages, ERE2012-Proceedings macros, Contribution to the Spanish Relativity Meeting in Portugal, Guimaraes, September 3-7, 201

Nature of the glassy magnetic state in Cu2.84_{2.84}Mn0.44_{0.44}Al0.72_{0.72} shape memory alloy

The magnetic ground state of the ferromagnetic shape memory alloy of nominal composition Cu$_{2.84}$Mn$_{0.44}$Al$_{0.72}$ was investigated. The sample shows reentry of a glassy magnetic phase below the martensitic transition temperature, which is found to have complex character with two distinct anomalies in the temperature dependent ac susceptibility data. The sample retains its glassy phase even below the second transition as evident from the magnetic memory measurements in different protocols. Existence of two transitions along with their observed nature suggest that the system can be described by the mean field Heisenberg model of reentrant spin glass as proposed by Gabay and Toulous. \cite{rsg-GT1} The sample provides a fascinating example where a Gabay-Toulous type spin glass state is triggered by a first order magneto-structural transition

Computational spectroscopy of helium-solvated molecules: effective inertia, from small He clusters toward the nano-droplet regime

Accurate computer simulations of the rotational dynamics of linear molecules solvated in He clusters indicate that the large-size (nano-droplet) regime is attained quickly for light rotors (HCN, CO) and slowly for heavy ones (OCS, N$_2$O, CO$_2$), thus challenging previously reported results. Those results spurred the view that the different behavior of light rotors with respect to heavy ones - including a smaller reduction of inertia upon solvation of the former - would result from the lack of adiabatic following of the He density upon molecular rotation. We have performed computer experiments in which the rotational dynamics of OCS and HCN molecules was simulated using a fictitious inertia appropriate to the other molecule. These experiments indicate that the approach to the nano-droplet regime, as well as the reduction of the molecular inertia upon solvation, is determined by the anistropy of the potential, more than by the molecular weight. Our findings are in agreement with recent infrared and/or microwave experimental data which, however, are not yet totally conclusive by themselves.Comment: 11 pages, 13 figure
