Level-Spacing Distributions and the Bessel Kernel
The level spacing distributions which arise when one rescales the Laguerre or
Jacobi ensembles of hermitian matrices is studied. These distributions are
expressible in terms of a Fredholm determinant of an integral operator whose
kernel is expressible in terms of Bessel functions of order . We derive
a system of partial differential equations associated with the logarithmic
derivative of this Fredholm determinant when the underlying domain is a union
of intervals. In the case of a single interval this Fredholm determinant is a
Painleve tau function.Comment: 18 pages, resubmitted to make postscript compatible, no changes to

Optical Properties of Heavy Fermion Systems with SDW Order
The dynamical conductivity , reflectivity , and
tunneling density of states of strongly correlated systems (like
heavy fermions) with a spin-density wave (SDW) magnetic order are studied as a
function of impurity scattering rate and temperature. The theory is generalized
to include strong coupling effects in the SDW order. The results are discussed
in the light of optical experiments on heavy-fermion SDW materials. With some
modifications the proposed theory is applicable also to heavy fermions with
localized antiferromagnetic (LAF) order.Comment: 9 pages, 10 figure
Electronic structure and magnetism of Mn doped GaN
Mn doped semiconductors are extremely interesting systems due to their novel
magnetic properties suitable for the spintronics applications. It has been
shown recently by both theory and experiment that Mn doped GaN systems have a
very high Curie temperature compared to that of Mn doped GaAs systems. To
understand the electronic and magnetic properties, we have studied Mn doped GaN
system in detail by a first principles plane wave method. We show here the
effect of varying Mn concentration on the electronic and magnetic properties.
For dilute Mn concentration, states of Mn form an impurity band completely
separated from the valence band states of the host GaN. This is in contrast to
the Mn doped GaAs system where Mn states in the gap lie very close to the
valence band edge and hybridizes strongly with the delocalized valence band
states.
To study the effects of electron correlation, LSDA+U calculations have been
performed.
Calculated exchange interaction in (Mn,Ga)N is short ranged in contrary to
that in (Mn,Ga)As where the strength of the ferromagnetic coupling between Mn
spins is not decreased substantially for large Mn-Mn separation. Also, the
exchange interactions are anisotropic in different crystallographic directions
due to the presence or absence of connectivity between Mn atoms through As
bonds.Comment: 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
Lepton Flavor Violation in the SUSY-GUT Models with Lopsided Mass Matrix
The tiny neutrino masses measured in the neutrino oscillation experiments can
be naturally explained by the supersymmetric see-saw mechanism. If the
supersymmetry breaking is mediated by gravity, the see-saw models may predict
observable lepton flavor violating effects. In this work, we investigate the
lepton flavor violating process in the kind of neutrino mass
models based on the idea of the ``lopsided'' form of the charged lepton mass
matrix. The constraints set by the muon anomalous magnetic moment are taken
into account. We find the present models generally predict a much larger
branching ratio of than the experimental limit. Conversely,
this process may give strong constraint on the lepton flavor structure.
Following this constraint we then find a new kind of the charged lepton mass
matrix. The feature of the structure is that both the elements between the 2-3
and 1-3 generations are ``lopsided''. This structure produces a very small 1-3
mixing and a large 1-2 mixing in the charged lepton sector, which naturally
leads to small and the LMA solution for the solar neutrino
problem.Comment: 24 pages, 8 figure
Motion of rotatory molecular motor and chemical reaction rate
We examine the dependence of the physical quantities of the rotatory
molecular motor, such as the rotation velocity and the proton translocation
rate, on the chemical reaction rate using the model based only on diffusion
process. A peculiar behavior of proton translocation is found and the energy
transduction efficiency of the motor protein is enhanced by this behavior. We
give a natural explanation that this behavior is universal when certain
inequalities between chemical reaction rates hold. That may give a clue to
examine whether the motion of the molecular motor is dominated by diffusion
process or not.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figure
On-site Coulomb interaction and the magnetism of (GaMn)N and (GaMn)As
We use the local density approximation (LDA) and LDA+U schemes to study the
magnetism of (GaMn)As and (GaMn)N for a number of Mn concentrations and varying
number of holes. We show that for both systems and both calculational schemes
the presence of holes is crucial for establishing ferromagnetism. For both
systems, the introduction of increases delocalization of the holes and,
simultaneously, decreases the p-d interaction. Since these two trends exert
opposite influences on the Mn-Mn exchange interaction the character of the
variation of the Curie temperature (T) cannot be predicted without direct
calculation. We show that the variation of T is different for two systems.
For low Mn concentrations we obtain the tendency to increasing T in the
case of (GaMn)N whereas an opposite tendency to decreasing T is obtained
for (GaMn)As. We reveal the origin of this difference by inspecting the
properties of the densities of states and holes for both systems. The main body
of calculations is performed within a supercell approach. The Curie
temperatures calculated within the coherent potential approximation to atomic
disorder are reported for comparison. Both approaches give similar qualitative
behavior. The results of calculations are related to the experimental data.Comment: to appear in Physical Review
On the solutions of the Schrodinger equation with some molecular potentials: wave function ansatz
Making an ansatz to the wave function, the exact solutions of the %
-dimensional radial Schrodinger equation with some molecular potentials like
pseudoharmonic and modified Kratzer potentials are obtained. The restriction on
the parameters of the given potential, and are also given,
where depends on a linear combination of the angular momentum quantum
number and the spatial dimensions and is a parameter in
the ansatz to the wave function. On inserting D=3, we find that the bound state
eigensolutions recover their standard analytical forms in literature.Comment: 14 page
ALPGEN, a generator for hard multiparton processes in hadronic collisions
This paper presents a new event generator, ALPGEN, dedicated to the study of
multiparton hard processes in hadronic collisions. The code performs, at the
leading order in QCD and EW interactions, the calculation of the exact matrix
elements for a large set of parton-level processes of interest in the study of
the Tevatron and LHC data. The current version of the code describes the
following final states: (W -> ffbar') QQbar+ N jets (Q being a heavy quark, and
f=l,q), with N f fbar)+QQbar+Njets (f=l,nu), with N
ffbar') + charm + N jets (f=l,q), N f fbar') + N jets (f=l,q) and
(Z/gamma* -> f fbar)+ N jets (f=l,nu), with N<=6; nW+mZ+lH+N jets, with
n+m+l+N<=8 and N<=3 including all 2-fermion decay modes of W and Z bosons, with
spin correlations; Q Qbar+N jets (N b f fbar' decays and relative
spin correlations included if Q=t; Q Qbar Q' Qbar'+N jets, with Q and Q' heavy
quarks (possibly equal) and N b f fbar'
decays and relative spin correlations included if Q=t; N jets, with N<=6.
Parton-level events are generated, providing full information on their colour
and flavour structure, enabling the evolution of the partons into fully
hadronised final states.Comment: 1+38 pages, uses JHEP.cls. Documents code version 1.2: extended list

A focal plane detector design for a wide-band Laue-lens telescope
The energy range above 60 keV is important for the study of many open
problems in high energy astrophysics such as the role of Inverse Compton with
respect to synchrotron or thermal processes in GRBs, non thermal mechanisms in
SNR, the study of the high energy cut-offs in AGN spectra, and the detection of
nuclear and annihilation lines. Recently the development of high energy Laue
lenses with broad energy bandpasses from 60 to 600 keV have been proposed for a
Hard X ray focusing Telescope (HAXTEL) in order to study the X-ray continuum of
celestial sources. The required focal plane detector should have high detection
efficiency over the entire operative range, a spatial resolution of about 1 mm,
an energy resolution of a few keV at 500 keV and a sensitivity to linear
polarization. We describe a possible configuration of the focal plane detector
based on several CdTe/CZT pixelated layers stacked together to achieve the
required detection efficiency at high energy. Each layer can operate both as a
separate position sensitive detector and polarimeter or work with other layers
to increase the overall photopeak efficiency. Each layer has a hexagonal shape
in order to minimize the detector surface required to cover the lens field of
view. The pixels would have the same geometry so as to provide the best
coupling with the lens point spread function and to increase the symmetry for
polarimetric studies.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figure
Electronic polarization in pentacene crystals and thin films
Electronic polarization is evaluated in pentacene crystals and in thin films
on a metallic substrate using a self-consistent method for computing charge
redistribution in non-overlapping molecules. The optical dielectric constant
and its principal axes are reported for a neutral crystal. The polarization
energies P+ and P- of a cation and anion at infinite separation are found for
both molecules in the crystal's unit cell in the bulk, at the surface, and at
the organic-metal interface of a film of N molecular layers. We find that a
single pentacene layer with herring-bone packing provides a screening
environment approaching the bulk. The polarization contribution to the
transport gap P=(P+)+(P-), which is 2.01 eV in the bulk, decreases and
increases by only ~ 10% at surfaces and interfaces, respectively. We also
compute the polarization energy of charge-transfer (CT) states with fixed
separation between anion and cation, and compare to electroabsorption data and
to submolecular calculations. Electronic polarization of ~ 1 eV per charge has
a major role for transport in organic molecular systems with limited overlap.Comment: 10 revtex pages, 6 PS figures embedde
