Limiting distributions of continuous-time random walks with superheavy-tailed waiting times

We study the long-time behavior of the scaled walker (particle) position associated with decoupled continuous-time random walk which is characterized by superheavy-tailed distribution of waiting times and asymmetric heavy-tailed distribution of jump lengths. Both the scaling function and the corresponding limiting probability density are determined for all admissible values of tail indexes describing the jump distribution. To analytically investigate the limiting density function, we derive a number of different representations of this function and, by this way, establish its main properties. We also develop an efficient numerical method for computing the limiting probability density and compare our analytical and numerical results.Comment: 35 pages, 4 figure

Probing the deuteron structure at small NN distances by antiproton-deuteron annihilation

The production of pions by antiproton-deuteron annihilation at rest is analyzed. Assuming the possible existence of two delta-isobars in a deuteron some enhancement in the distribution over the invariant mass of two negative charged pions is predicted.Comment: 12 pages, Latex and Postscrip

Magnetic relaxation in finite two-dimensional nanoparticle ensembles

We study the slow phase of thermally activated magnetic relaxation in finite two-dimensional ensembles of dipolar interacting ferromagnetic nanoparticles whose easy axes of magnetization are perpendicular to the distribution plane. We develop a method to numerically simulate the magnetic relaxation for the case that the smallest heights of the potential barriers between the equilibrium directions of the nanoparticle magnetic moments are much larger than the thermal energy. Within this framework, we analyze in detail the role that the correlations of the nanoparticle magnetic moments and the finite size of the nanoparticle ensemble play in magnetic relaxation.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figure
