Gravitation Interaction and Electromagnetic Interaction in the Relativistic Universe with Total Zero and Local Non-Zero Energy
In the model of flat expansive homogeneous and isotropic relativistic
universe with total zero and local non-zero energy the gravitation energy of
bodies and the elecromagnetic energy of charged bodies can be localised.Comment: LaTeX, 10 pages, 1 figur
Probing the Higgs mechanism via
We investigate the sensitivity of the reaction to
the Higgs sector based on the complete one-loop corrections in the minimal
Standard Model and the gauged non-linear -model. While this sensitivity
is very strong for the suppressed cross-section of equally polarized photons
and longitudinal W bosons, it is only marginal for the dominant mode of
transverse polarizations. The corrections within the -model turn out to
be UV-finite in accordance with the absence of \log\MH terms in the Standard
Model with a heavy Higgs boson.Comment: 12 pages uuencoded postscrip
Possibility of the new type phase transition
The scalar field theory and the scalar electrodynamics quantized in the flat
gap are considered. The dynamical effects arising due to the boundary presence
with two types of boundary conditions (BC) satisfied by scalar fields are
studied. It is shown that while the Neumann BC lead to the usual scalar field
mass generation, the Dirichlet BC give rise to the dynamical mechanism of
spontaneous symmetry breaking. Due to the later, there arises the possibility
of the new type phase transition from the normal to spontaneously broken phase.
The decreasing in the characteristic size of the quantization region (the gap
size here) and increasing in the temperature compete with each other, tending
to transport the system in the spontaneously broken and in the normal phase,
respectively. The system evolves with a combined parameter, simultaneously
reflecting the change in temperature and in the size. As a result, at the
critical value of this parameter there occurs the phase transition from the
normal phase to the spontaneously broken one. In particular, the usual massless
scalar electrodynamics transforms to the Higgs model
The Triple Higgs Boson Self-Coupling at Future Linear e+e- Colliders Energies: ILC and CLIC
We analyzed the triple Higgs boson self-coupling at future
colliders energies, with the reactions . We evaluate the total cross-sections for both and ,
and calculate the total number of events considering the complete set of
Feynman diagrams at tree-level. We vary the triple coupling
within the range and +2. The numerical
computation is done for the energies expected to be available at a possible
Future Linear Collider with a center-of-mass energy and a luminosity 1000 . Our analysis is also extended to a
center-of-mass energy 3 and luminosities of 1000 and 5000
. We found that for the process , the
complete calculation differs only by 3% from the approximate calculation
, while for the process , the expected number of events, considering the decay products of both
and , is not enough to obtain an accurate determination of the triple Higgs
boson self-coupling.Comment: 19 pages, 12 figure
Next-to-leading Corrections to the Higgs Boson Transverse Momentum Spectrum in Gluon Fusion
We present a fully analytic calculation of the Higgs boson transverse
momentum and rapidity distributions, for nonzero Higgs , at
next-to-leading order in the infinite-top-mass approximation. We separate the
cross section into a part that contains the dominant soft, virtual, collinear,
and small--enhanced contributions, and the remainder, which is
organized by the contributions due to different parton helicities. We use this
cross section to investigate analytically the small- limit and compare
with the expectation from the resummation of large logarithms of the type
. We also compute numerically the cross section at moderate
where a fixed-order calculation is reliable. We find a -factor
that varies from , and a reduction in the scale dependence, as
compared to leading order. Our analysis suggests that the contribution of
current parton distributions to the total uncertainty on this cross section at
the LHC is probably less than that due to uncalculated higher orders.Comment: 40 pages, 10 figures, JHEP style (minor changes, added reference
Higgs Radiation off Top Quarks at the Tevatron and the LHC
Higgs bosons can be searched for in the channels
at the Tevatron and the LHC. We have calculated the QCD corrections to these
processes in the Standard Model at next-to-leading order. The higher-order
corrections reduce the renormalization and factorization scale dependence
considerably and stabilize the theoretical predictions for the cross sections.
At the central scale the properly defined factors are
slightly below unity for the Tevatron () and slightly above unity
for the LHC ().Comment: 5 pages, latex, 2 figure
Bloch-Nordsieck Violation in Spontaneously Broken Abelian Theories
We point out that, in a spontaneously broken U(1) gauge theory, inclusive
processes, whose primary particles are mass eigenstates that do not coincide
with the gauge eigenstates, are not free of infrared logarithms. The charge
mixing allowed by symmetry breaking and the ensuing Bloch-Nordsieck violation
are here analyzed in a few relevant cases and in particular for processes
initiated by longitudinal gauge bosons. Of particular interest is the example
of weak hypercharge in the Standard Model where, in addition, left-right mixing
effects arise in transversely polarized fermion beams.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur
Application of remote sensing to state and regional problems
The author has identified the following significant results. The Lowndes County data base is essentially complete with 18 primary variables and 16 proximity variables encoded into the geo-information system. The single purpose, decision tree classifier is now operational. Signatures for the thematic extraction of strip mines from LANDSAT Digital data were obtained by employing both supervised and nonsupervised procedures. Dry, blowing sand areas of beach were also identified from the LANDSAT data. The primary procedure was the analysis of analog data on the I2S signal slicer
