New q-Euler numbers and polynomials associated with p-adic q-integrals
In this paper we study q-Euler numbers and polynomials by using p-adic
q-fermionic integrals on Z_p. The methods to study q-Euler numbers and
polynomials in this paper are new.Comment: 13 page
Cooling of suspended nanostructures with tunnel junctions
We have investigated electronic cooling of suspended nanowires with SINIS
tunnel junction coolers. The suspended samples consist of a free standing
nanowire suspended by four narrow ( 200 nm) bridges. We have compared two
different cooler designs for cooling the suspended nanowire. We demonstrate
that cooling of the nanowire is possible with a proper SINIS cooler design
Discovery of GRS 1915+105 variability patterns in the Rapid Burster
We report the discovery of two new types of variability in the neutron star
low-mass X-ray binary MXB 1730-335 (the 'Rapid Burster'). In one observation in
1999, it exhibits a large-amplitude quasi-periodic oscillation with a period of
about 7 min. In another observation in 2008, it exhibits two 4-min long 75 per
cent deep dips 44 min apart. These two kinds of variability are very similar to
the so-called or 'heartbeat' variability and the variability,
respectively, seen in the black hole low-mass X-ray binaries GRS 1915+105 and
IGR J17091-3624. This shows that these types of behavior are unrelated to a
black hole nature of the accretor. Our findings also show that these kinds of
behaviour need not take place at near-Eddington accretion rates. We speculate
that they may rather be related to the presence of a relatively wide orbit with
an orbital period in excess of a few days and about the relation between these
instabilities and the type II bursts.Comment: Accepted for publication in MNRAS letter
Theoretical constraints on masses of heavy particles in Left-Right Symmetric Models
Left-Right symmetric models with general gauge couplings which
include bidoublet and triplet scalar multiplets are studied. Possible scalar
mass spectra are outlined by imposing Tree-Unitarity, and Vacuum Stability
criteria and also using the bounds on neutral scalar masses
which assure the absence of Flavour Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC). We are
focusing on mass spectra relevant for the LHC analysis, i.e., the scalar masses
are around TeV scale. As all non-standard heavy particle masses are related to
the vacuum expectation value (VEV) of the right-handed triplet (), the
combined effects of relevant Higgs potential parameters and
regulate the lower limits of heavy gauge boson masses. The complete set of
Renormalization Group Evolutions for all couplings are provided at the 1-loop
level, including the mixing effects in the Yukawa sector. Most of the scalar
couplings suffer from the Landau poles at the intermediate scale GeV, which in general coincides with violation of the Tree-Unitarity
bounds.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures, pdflatex, Matches published versio
