Cavity optomechanics with stoichiometric SiN films
We study high-stress SiN films for reaching the quantum regime with
mesoscopic oscillators connected to a room-temperature thermal bath, for which
there are stringent requirements on the oscillators' quality factors and
frequencies. Our SiN films support mechanical modes with unprecedented products
of mechanical quality factor and frequency reaching Hz. The SiN membranes exhibit a low optical absorption
characterized by Im at 935 nm, representing a 15 times
reduction for SiN membranes. We have developed an apparatus to simultaneously
cool the motion of multiple mechanical modes based on a short, high-finesse
Fabry-Perot cavity and present initial cooling results along with future
possibilities.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Self-consistent treatment of the self-energy in nuclear matter
The influence of hole-hole propagation in addition to the conventional
particle-particle propagation, on the energy per nucleon and the momentum
distribution is investigated. The results are compared to the
Brueckner-Hartree-Fock (BHF) calculations with a continuous choice and
conventional choice for the single-particle spectrum. The Bethe-Goldstone
equation has been solved using realistic interactions. Also, the structure
of nucleon self-energy in nuclear matter is evaluated. All the self-energies
are calculated self-consistently. Starting from the BHF approximation without
the usual angle-average approximation, the effects of hole-hole contributions
and a self-consistent treatment within the framework of the Green function
approach are investigated. Using the self-consistent self-energy, the hole and
particle self-consistent spectral functions including the particle-particle and
hole-hole ladder contributions in nuclear matter are calculated using realistic
interactions. We found that, the difference in binding energy between both
results, i.e. BHF and self-consistent Green function, is not large. This
explains why is the BHF ignored the 2h1p contribution.Comment: Preprint 20 pages including 15 figures and one tabl
Energy and Momentum Distributions of Kantowski and Sachs Space-time
We use the Einstein, Bergmann-Thomson, Landau-Lifshitz and Papapetrou
energy-momentum complexes to calculate the energy and momentum distributions of
Kantowski and Sachs space-time. We show that the Einstein and Bergmann-Thomson
definitions furnish a consistent result for the energy distribution, but the
definition of Landau-Lifshitz do not agree with them. We show that a signature
switch should affect about everything including energy distribution in the case
of Einstein and Papapetrou prescriptions but not in Bergmann-Thomson and
Landau-Lifshitz prescriptions.Comment: 12 page
Properties of asymmetric nuclear matter in different approaches
Properties of asymmetric nuclear matter are derived from various many-body
approaches. This includes phenomenological ones like the Skyrme Hartree-Fock
and relativistic mean field approaches, which are adjusted to fit properties of
nuclei, as well as more microscopic attempts like the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock
approximation, a self-consistent Greens function method and the so-called
approach, which are based on realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions
which reproduce the nucleon-nucleon phase shifts. These microscopic approaches
are supplemented by a density-dependent contact interaction to achieve the
empirical saturation property of symmetric nuclear matter. The predictions of
all these approaches are discussed for nuclear matter at high densities in
-equilibrium. Special attention is paid to behavior of the isovector
component of the effective mass in neutron-rich matter.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figure
Energy Distribution of a Stringy Charged Black Hole
The energy distribution associated with a stringy charged black hole is
studied using M{\o}ller's energy-momentum complex. Our result is reasonable and
it differs from that known in literature using Einstein's energy-momentum
complex.Comment: Latex, no figure
Energy and Momentum densities of cosmological models, with equation of state , in general relativity and teleparallel gravity
We calculated the energy and momentum densities of stiff fluid solutions,
using Einstein, Bergmann-Thomson and Landau-Lifshitz energy-momentum complexes,
in both general relativity and teleparallel gravity. In our analysis we get
different results comparing the aforementioned complexes with each other when
calculated in the same gravitational theory, either this is in general
relativity and teleparallel gravity. However, interestingly enough, each
complex's value is the same either in general relativity or teleparallel
gravity. Our results sustain that (i) general relativity or teleparallel
gravity are equivalent theories (ii) different energy-momentum complexes do not
provide the same energy and momentum densities neither in general relativity
nor in teleparallel gravity. In the context of the theory of teleparallel
gravity, the vector and axial-vector parts of the torsion are obtained. We show
that the axial-vector torsion vanishes for the space-time under study.Comment: 15 pages, no figures, Minor typos corrected; version to appear in

Geodesics and Geodesic Deviation in static Charged Black Holes
The radial motion along null geodesics in static charged black hole
space-times, in particular, the Reissner-Nordstr\"om and stringy charged black
holes are studied. We analyzed the properties of the effective potential. The
circular photon orbits in these space-times are investigated. We found that the
radius of circular photon orbits in both charged black holes are different and
differ from that given in Schwarzschild space-time. We studied the physical
effects of the gravitational field between two test particles in stringy
charged black hole and compared the results with that given in Schwarzschild
and Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures, small changes, figures and references added,

On the energy of charged black holes in generalized dilaton-axion gravity
In this paper we calculate the energy distribution of some charged black
holes in generalized dilaton-axion gravity. The solutions correspond to charged
black holes arising in a Kalb-Ramond-dilaton background and some existing
non-rotating black hole solutions are recovered in special cases. We focus our
study to asymptotically flat and asymptotically non-flat types of solutions and
resort for this purpose to the M{\o}ller prescription. Various aspects of
energy are also analyzed.Comment: LaTe
Energy Distribution of a Stationary Beam of Light
Aguirregabiria et al showed that Einstein, Landau and Lifshitz, Papapetrou,
and Weinberg energy-momentum complexes coincide for all Kerr-Schild metric.
Bringely used their general expression of the Kerr-Schild class and found
energy and momentum densities for the Bonnor metric. We obtain these results
without using Aguirregabiria et al results and verify that Bringley's results
are correct. This also supports Aguirregabiria et al results as well as
Cooperstock hypothesis. Further, we obtain the energy distribution of the
space-time under consideration.Comment: Latex, no figures [Admin note: substantial overlap with gr-qc/9910015

Energy Distribution associated with Static Axisymmetric Solutions
This paper has been addressed to a very old but burning problem of energy in
General Relativity. We evaluate energy and momentum densities for the static
and axisymmetric solutions. This specializes to two metrics, i.e., Erez-Rosen
and the gamma metrics, belonging to the Weyl class. We apply four well-known
prescriptions of Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz, Papaterou and Mller to
compute energy-momentum density components. We obtain that these prescriptions
do not provide similar energy density, however momentum becomes constant in
each case. The results can be matched under particular boundary conditions.Comment: 18 pages, accepted for publication in Astrophysics and SpaceScienc
