The Riemann Surface of a Static Dispersion Model and Regge Trajectories

The S-matrix in the static limit of a dispersion relation is a matrix of a finite order N of meromorphic functions of energy $\omega$ in the plane with cuts $(-\infty,-1],[+1,+\infty)$. In the elastic case it reduces to N functions $S_{i}(\omega)$ connected by the crossing symmetry matrix A. The scattering of a neutral pseodoscalar meson with an arbitrary angular momentum l at a source with spin 1/2 is considered (N=2). The Regge trajectories of this model are explicitly found.Comment: 5 pages, LaTe

On Geometry of Flat Complete Strictly Causal Lorentzian Manifolds

A flat complete causal Lorentzian manifold is called {\it strictly causal} if the past and the future of each its point are closed near this point. We consider strictly causal manifolds with unipotent holonomy groups and assign to a manifold of this type four nonnegative integers (a signature) and a parabola in the cone of positive definite matrices. Two manifolds are equivalent if and only if their signatures coincides and the corresponding parabolas are equal (up to a suitable automorphism of the cone and an affine change of variable). Also, we give necessary and sufficient conditions, which distinguish parabolas of this type among all parabolas in the cone.Comment: The exposition is revised (no essential change in the content).

Modeling of liquid flow in surface discontinuities

Polymer composite and metallic materials have found wide application in various industries such as aviation, rocket, car manufacturing, ship manufacturing, etc. Many design elements need permanent quality control. Ensuring high quality and reliability of products is impossible without effective nondestructive testing methods. One of these methods is penetrant testing using penetrating substances based on liquid penetration into defect cavities. In this paper, we propose a model of liquid flow to determine the rates of filling the defect cavities with various materials and, based on this, to choose optimal control modes

Where is the pseudoscalar glueball ?

The pseudoscalar mesons with the masses higher than 1 GeV are assumed to belong to the meson decuplet including the glueball as the basis state supplementing the standard $SU(3)_F$ nonet of light $q\bar{q}$ states $(u,d,s)$. The decuplet is investigated by means of an algebraic approach based on hypothesis of vanishing the exotic $SU(3)_F$ commutators of "charges" and their time derivatives. These commutators result in a system of equations determining contents of the isoscalar octet state in the physical isoscalar mesons as well as the mass formula including all masses of the decuplet: $\pi(1300)$, K(1460), $\eta(1295)$, $\eta(1405)$ and $\eta(1475)$. The physical isoscalar mesons $\eta_i$, are expressed as superpositions of the "ideal" $q\bar{q}$ states ($N$ and $S$) and the glueball $G$ with the mixing coefficient matrix following from the exotic commutator restrictions. Among four one-parameter families of the calculated mixing matrix (numerous solutions result from bad quality of data on the $\pi(1300)$ and K(1460) masses) there is one family attributing the glueball-dominant composition to the $\eta(1405)$ meson. Similarity between the pseudoscalar and scalar decuplets, analogy between the whole spectra of the $0^{-+}$ and $0^{++}$ mesons and affinity of the glueball with excited $q\bar{q}$ states are also noticed.Comment: 18 pp., 2. figs., 2 tabs.; Published version.
