Polarized 3 parton production in inclusive DIS at small x
Azimuthal angular correlations between produced hadrons/jets in high energy
collisions are a sensitive probe of the dynamics of QCD at small x. Here we
derive the triple differential cross section for inclusive production of 3
polarized partons in DIS at small x using the spinor helicity formalism. The
target proton or nucleus is described using the Color Glass Condensate (CGC)
formalism. The resulting expressions are used to study azimuthal angular
correlations between produced partons in order to probe the gluon structure of
the target hadron or nucleus. Our analytic expressions can also be used to
calculate the real part of the Next to Leading Order (NLO) corrections to
di-hadron production in DIS by integrating out one of the three final state
partons.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figures; version accepted for publication in Physics

Broadening of HO rotational lines by collision with He atoms at low temperature
We report pressure broadening coefficients for the 21 electric-dipole
transitions between the eight lowest rotational levels of ortho-HO and
para-HO molecules by collisions with He at temperatures from 20 to 120 K.
These coefficients are derived from recently published experimental
state-to-state rate coefficients for HO:He inelastic collisions, plus an
elastic contribution from close coupling calculations. The resulting
coefficients are compared to the available experimental data. Mostly due to the
elastic contribution, the pressure broadening coefficients differ much from
line to line, and increase markedly at low temperature. The present results are
meant as a guide for future experiments and astrophysical observations.Comment: 2 figures, 2 table
Feynman parametrization and Mellin summation at finite temperature
We show that the Mellin summation technique (MST) is a well defined and
useful tool to compute loop integrals at finite temperature in the
imaginary-time formulation of thermal field theory, especially when interested
in the infrared limit of such integrals. The method makes use of the Feynman
parametrization which has been claimed to have problems when the analytical
continuation from discrete to arbitrary complex values of the Matsubara
frequency is performed. We show that without the use of the MST, such problems
are not intrinsic to the Feynman parametrization but instead, they arise as a
result of (a) not implementing the periodicity brought about by the possible
values taken by the discrete Matsubara frequencies before the analytical
continuation is made and (b) to the changing of the original domain of the
Feynman parameter integration, which seemingly simplifies the expression but in
practice introduces a spurious endpoint singularity. Using the MST, there are
no problems related to the implementation of the periodicity but instead, care
has to be taken when the sum of denominators of the original amplitude
vanishes. We apply the method to the computation of loop integrals appearing
when the effects of external weak magnetic fields on the propagation of scalar
particles is considered.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figure. Discussion expanded. References added. Published

How different Fermi surface maps emerge in photoemission from Bi2212
We report angle-resolved photoemission spectra (ARPES) from the Fermi energy
() over a large area of the () plane using 21.2 eV and 32 eV
photons in two distinct polarizations from an optimally doped single crystal of
BiSrCaCuO (Bi2212), together with extensive
first-principles simulations of the ARPES intensities. The results display a
wide-ranging level of accord between theory and experiment and clarify how
myriad Fermi surface (FS) maps emerge in ARPES under various experimental
conditions. The energy and polarization dependences of the ARPES matrix element
help disentangle primary contributions to the spectrum due to the pristine
lattice from those arising from modulations of the underlying tetragonal
symmetry and provide a route for separating closely placed FS sheets in low
dimensional materials.Comment: submitted to PR
