Irreducible completely pointed modules of quantum groups of type
We give a classification of all irreducible completely pointed
modules over a characteristic zero field in which
is not a root of unity. This generalizes the classification result of
Benkart, Britten and Lemire in the non quantum case. We also show that any
infinite-dimensional irreducible completely pointed
can be obtained from some irreducible completely pointed module over the
quantized Weyl algebra .Comment: 25 page
Correlation of AH-1G helicopter flight vibration data and tailboom static test data with NASTRAN analytical results
Level flight airframe vibration at main rotor excitation frequencies was calculated. A NASTRAN tailboom analysis was compared with test data for evaluation of methods used to determine effective skin in a semimonocoque sheet-stringer structure. The flight vibration correlation involved comparison of level flight vibration for two helicopter configurations: clean wing, at light gross weight and wing stores at heavy gross weight. In the tailboom correlation, deflections and internal loads were compared using static test data and a NASTRAN analysis. An iterative procedure was used to determine the amount of effective skin of buckled panels under compression load
Tunable Holstein model with cold polar molecules
We show that an ensemble of polar molecules trapped in an optical lattice can
be considered as a controllable open quantum system. The coupling between
collective rotational excitations and the motion of the molecules in the
lattice potential can be controlled by varying the strength and orientation of
an external DC electric field as well as the intensity of the trapping laser.
The system can be described by a generalized Holstein Hamiltonian with tunable
parameters and can be used as a quantum simulator of excitation energy transfer
and polaron phenomena. We show that the character of excitation energy transfer
can be modified by tuning experimental parameters.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures (accepted in as a Rapid Communication in

Induced scattering of short radio pulses
Effect of the induced Compton and Raman scattering on short, bright radio
pulses is investigated. It is shown that when a single pulse propagates through
the scattering medium, the effective optical depth is determined by the
duration of the pulse but not by the scale of the medium. The induced
scattering could hinder propagation of the radio pulse only if close enough to
the source a dense enough plasma is presented. The induced scattering within
the relativistically moving source places lower limits on the Lorentz factor of
the source. The results are applied to the recently discovered short
extragalactic radio pulse.Comment: submitted to Ap
Universal scaling behavior at the upper critical dimension of non-equilibrium continuous phase transitions
In this work we analyze the universal scaling functions and the critical
exponents at the upper critical dimension of a continuous phase transition. The
consideration of the universal scaling behavior yields a decisive check of the
value of the upper critical dimension. We apply our method to a non-equilibrium
continuous phase transition. But focusing on the equation of state of the phase
transition it is easy to extend our analysis to all equilibrium and
non-equilibrium phase transitions observed numerically or experimentally.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Quantum Fields on the Light Front, Formulation in Coordinates close to the Light Front, Lattice Approximation
We review the fundamental ideas of quantizing a theory on a Light Front
including the Hamiltonian approach to the problem of bound states on the Light
Front and the limiting transition from formulating a theory in Lorentzian
coordinates (where the quantization occurs on spacelike hyperplanes) to the
theory on the Light Front, which demonstrates the equivalence of these variants
of the theory. We describe attempts to find such a form of the limiting
transition for gauge theories on the Wilson lattice.Comment: LaTeX 2e, 14 page

Comprehensive Organic Analysis of Antartic Micrometeorites
Introduction: Micrometeorites (MMs) are thought to be significant contributors of organic material to the early Earth [1], and a variety of techniques have been employed to identify their organic composition [2-6]. These include the identification of key organic groups using combinations of infrared, energy dispersive Xray, electron energy loss and Raman spectroscopy and scanning transmission X-ray microscopy [2-4], highlighting similarities between that of MMs and carbonaceous chondrites.
Few studies, however, have focused on the characterisation of individual micrometeoritic organic components. Microscopic L2MS has been used to identify up to C5 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their alkyl derivatives [5]. A combination of ionexchange chromatography and fluorimetric detection has also been successful in identifying a number of protein amino acids including glycine and alanine [6].
We have previously reported a method to analyse ?g-sized quantities of extraterrestrial materials, with prior application to assessing organic volatile release from MM atmospheric entry heating simulations [7]. In this study we utilise this technique to characterise the organic composition of Antarctic terrestrial particles and MMs collected in 1994 from Cap-Prudhomme [8]
Design studies of Laminar Flow Control (LFC) wing concepts using superplastics forming and diffusion bonding (SPF/DB)
Alternate concepts and design approaches were developed for suction panels and techniques were defined for integrating these panel designs into a complete LFC 200R wing. The design concepts and approaches were analyzed to assure that they would meet the strength, stability, and internal volume requirements. Cost and weight comparisions of the concepts were also made. Problems of integrating the concepts into a complete aircraft system were addressed. Methods for making splices both chordwise and spanwise, fuel light joints, and internal duct installations were developed. Manufacturing problems such as slot aligment, tapered slot spacing, production methods, and repair techniques were addressed. An assessment of the program was used to developed recommendations for additional research in the development of SPF/DB for LFC structure
