Correlation of high energy muons with primary composition in extensive air shower
An experimental investigation of high energy muons above 200 GeV in extensive air showers has been made for studying high energy interaction and primary composition of cosmic rays of energies in the range 10 to the 14th power approx. 10 to the 15th power eV. The muon energies are estimated from the burst sizes initiated by the muons in the rock, which are measured by four layers of proportional counters, each of area 5 x 2.6 sq m, placed at 30 m.w.e. deep, Funasaka tunnel vertically below the air shower array. These results are compared with Monte Carlo simulations based on the scaling model and the fireball model for two primary compositions, all proton and mixed
Superconductivity at 5.2 K in ZrTe3 polycrystals and the effect of Cu, Ag intercalation
We report the occurrence of superconductivity in polycrystalline samples of
ZrTe3 at 5.2 K temperature at ambient pressure. The superconducting state
coexists with the charge density wave (CDW) phase, which sets in at 63K. The
intercalation of Cu or Ag, does not have any bearing on the superconducting
transition temperature but suppresses the CDW state. The feature of CDW anomaly
in these compounds is clearly seen in the DC magnetization data. Resistivity
data is analysed to estimate the relative loss of carriers and reduction in the
nested Fermi surface area upon CDW formation in the ZrTe3 and the intercalated
compounds.Comment: 5 pages, 8 figure

Confined Phase In The Real Time Formalism And The Fate Of The World Behind The Horizon
In the real time formulation of finite temperature field theories, one
introduces an additional set of fields (type-2 fields) associated to each field
in the original theory (type-1 field). In hep-th/0106112, in the context of the
AdS-CFT correspondence, Maldacena interpreted type-2 fields as living on a
boundary behind the black hole horizon. However, below the Hawking-Page
transition temperature, the thermodynamically preferred configuration is the
thermal AdS without a black hole, and hence there are no horizon and boundary
behind it. This means that when the dual gauge theory is in confined phase, the
type-2 fields cannot be associated with the degrees of freedom behind the black
hole horizon. I argue that in this case the role of the type-2 fields is to
make up bulk type-2 fields of classical closed string field theory on AdS at
finite temperature in the real time formalism.Comment: v2: cases divided into sections with more detailed explanations.

On the entropy operator for the general SU(1,1) TFD formulation
In this letter, an entropy operator for the general unitary SU(1,1) TFD
formulation is proposed and used to lead a bosonic system from zero to finite
temperature. Namely, considering the closed bosonic string as the target
system, the entropy operator is used to construct the thermal vacuum. The
behaviour of such a state under the breve conjugation rules is analized and it
was shown that the breve conjugation does not affect thermal effects. From this
thermal vacuum the thermal energy, the entropy and the free energy of the
closed bosonic string are calculated and the apropriated thermal distribution
for the system is found after the free energy minimization.Comment: 13 pages, revtex4, minor typos corrected, references adde
Entanglement and entropy operator for strings in pp-wave time dependent background
In this letter new aspects of string theory propagating in a pp-wave time
dependent background with a null singularity are explored. It is shown the
appearance of a 2d entanglement entropy dynamically generated by the
background. For asymptotically flat observers, the vacuum close to the
singularity is unitarily inequivalent to the vacuum at and it
is shown that the 2d entanglement entropy diverges close to this point. As a
consequence, the positive time region is inaccessible for observers in . For a stationary measure, the vacuum at finite time is seen by those
observers as a thermal state and the information loss is encoded as a heat bath
of string states.Comment: revtex4, 15 pages, revised version to appear in Physics Letters

Space-time translational gauge identities in Abelian Yang-Mills gravity
We derive and calculate the space-time translational gauge identities in
quantum Yang-Mills gravity with a general class of gauge conditions involving
two arbitrary parameters. These identities of the Abelian group of translation
are a generalization of Ward-Takahasi-Fradkin identities and important for
general discussions of possible renormalization of Yang-Mills gravity with
translational gauge symmetry. The gauge identities in Yang-Mills gravity with a
general class of gauge conditions are substantiated by explicit calculations.Comment: 15 pages. To be published in The European Physical Journal - Plus

Black Hole Thermodynamics in Horava Lifshitz Gravity and the Related Geometry
Recently, Hoava proposed a non-relativistic renormalizable theory
of gravity which is essentially a field theoretic model for a UV complete
theory of gravity and reduces to Einstein gravity with a non-vanishing
cosmological constant in IR. Also the theory admits a Lifshitz scale-invariance
in time and space with broken Lorentz symmetry at short scale. On the other
hand, at large distances higher derivative terms do not contribute and the
theory coincides with general relativity. Subsequently, Cai and his
collaborators and then Catiuo et al have obtained black hole solutions in this
gravity theory and studied the thermodynamic properties of the black hole
solution. In the present paper, we have investigated the black hole
thermodynamic for two choices of the entropy function - a classical and a
topological in nature. Finally, it is examined whether a phase transition is
possible or not.Comment: 8 figure
