OmOm Diagnostic for Dilaton Dark Energy

$Om$ diagnostic can differentiate between different models of dark energy without the accurate current value of matter density. We apply this geometric diagnostic to dilaton dark energy(DDE) model and differentiate DDE model from LCDM. We also investigate the influence of coupled parameter $\alpha$ on the evolutive behavior of $Om$ with respect to redshift $z$. According to the numerical result of $Om$, we get the current value of equation of state $\omega_{\sigma0}$=-0.952 which fits the WMAP5+BAO+SN very well.Comment: 6 pages and 6 figures

Born-Infeld Type Phantom Model in the ω−ω′\omega-\omega' Plane

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of Born-Infeld(B-I) phantom model in the $\omega-\omega'$ plane, which is defined by the equation of state parameter for the dark energy and its derivative with respect to $N$(the logarithm of the scale factor $a$). We find the scalar field equation of motion in $\omega-\omega'$ plane, and show mathematically the property of attractor solutions which correspond to $\omega_\phi\sim-1$, $\Omega_\phi=1$, which avoid the "Big rip" problem and meets the current observations well.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, some references adde

Constraints on the Leading-Twist Pion Distribution Amplitude from A QCD Light-Cone Sum Rule with Chiral Current

We present an improved analysis of the constraints on the first two Gegenbauer moments, $a^\pi_2$ and $a^\pi_4$, of the pion's leading-twist distribution amplitude from a QCD light-cone sum rule analysis of $B\to\pi$ weak transition form factor $f_{+}(q^2)$. Proper chiral current is adopted in QCD light-cone sum rule so as to eliminate the most uncertain twist-3 contributions to $f_{+}(q^2)$, and then we concentrate our attention on the properties of the leading-twist pion DA. A nearly model-independent $f_+(q^2)$ as shown in Ref.\cite{pball0} that is based on the spectrum of $B\to\pi l\nu$ decays from BaBar, together with their uncertainties, are adopted as the standard shape for $f_+(q^2)$ to do our discussion. From a minimum $\chi^2$-fit and by taking the theoretical uncertainties into account, we obtain $a^\pi_2(1GeV)=0.17^{+0.15}_{-0.17}$ and $a^\pi_4(1GeV)=-0.06^{+0.20}_{-0.22}$ at the $1\sigma$ confidence level for $m^*_b\in[4.7,4,8] GeV$.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures.

Spin Transfer from a Ferromagnet into a Semiconductor through an Oxide barrier

We present results on the magnetoresistance of the system Ni/Al203/n-doped Si/Al2O3/Ni in fabricated nanostructures. The results at temperature of 14K reveal a 75% magnetoresistance that decreases in value up to approximately 30K where the effect disappears. We observe minimum resistance in the antiparallel configurations of the source and drain of Ni. As a possibility, it seems to indicate the existence of a magnetic state at the Si/oxide interface. The average spin diffusion length obtained is of 650 nm approximately. Results are compared to the window of resistances that seems to exist between the tunnel barrier resistance and two threshold resistances but the spin transfer seems to work in the range and outside the two thresholds

Parametrization of Born-Infeld Type Phantom Dark Energy Model

Applying the parametrization of dark energy density, we can construct directly independent-model potentials. In Born-Infeld type phantom dark energy model, we consider four special parametrization equation of state parameter. The evolutive behavior of dark energy density with respect to red-shift $z$, potentials with respect to $\phi$ and $z$ are shown mathematically. Moreover, we investigate the effect of parameter $\eta$ upon the evolution of the constructed potential with respect to $z$. These results show that the evolutive behavior of constructed Born-Infeld type dark energy model is quite different from those of the other models.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, Accepted for publication in Astrophysics & Space Scienc

The Consistent Result of Cosmological Constant From Quantum Cosmology and Inflation with Born-Infeld Scalar Field

The Quantum cosmology with Born-Infeld(B-I) type scalar field is considered. In the extreme limits of small cosmological scale factor the wave function of the universe can also be obtained by applying the methods developed by Hartle-Hawking(H-H) and Vilenkin. H-H wave function predicts that most Probable cosmological constant $\Lambda$ equals to $\frac{1}{\eta}$($\frac{1}{2\eta}$ equals to the maximum of the kinetic energy of scalar field). It is different from the original results($\Lambda=0$) in cosmological constant obtained by Hartle-Hawking. The Vilenkin wave function predicts a nucleating unverse with largest possible cosmological constant and it is larger than $1/\eta$. The conclusions have been nicely to reconcile with cosmic inflation. We investigate the inflation model with B-I type scalar field, and find that $\eta$ depends on the amplitude of tensor perturbation $\delta_h$, with the form $\frac{1}{\eta}\simeq \frac{m^2}{12\pi[(\frac{9\delta_{\Phi}^2}{N \delta_h^2})^2-1]}.$ The vacuum energy in inflation epoch depends on the tensor-to-scalar ratio $\frac{\delta_h}{\delta_{\Phi}}$. The amplitude of the tensor perturbation ${\delta_{h}}$ can, in principle, be large enough to be discovered. However, it is only on the border of detectability in future experiments. If it has been observed in future, this is very interesting to determine the vacuum energy in inflation epoch.Comment: 12 pages, one figure, references added, accepted by European Physical Journal

Analysis of Ωb−(bss)\Omega_b^-(bss) and Ωc0(css)\Omega_c^0(css) with QCD sum rules

In this article, we calculate the masses and the pole residues of the ${1/2}^+$ heavy baryons $\Omega_c^0(css)$ and $\Omega_b^-(bss)$ with the QCD sum rules. The numerical values $M_{\Omega_c^0}=(2.72\pm0.18) \rm{GeV}$ (or $M_{\Omega_c^0}=(2.71\pm0.18) \rm{GeV}$) and $M_{\Omega_b^-}=(6.13\pm0.12) \rm{GeV}$ (or $M_{\Omega_b^-}=(6.18\pm0.13) \rm{GeV}$) are in good agreement with the experimental data.Comment: 18 pages, 18 figures, slight revisio

Crystal Field and Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya Interaction in orbitally ordered La_{0.95}Sr_{0.05}MnO_3: An ESR Study

We present a comprehensive analysis of Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction and crystal-field parameters using the angular dependence of the paramagnetic resonance shift and linewidth in single crystals of La_{0.95}Sr_{0.05}MnO_3 within the orthorhombic Jahn-Teller distorted phase. The Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction (~ 1K) results from the tilting of the MnO_6 octahedra against each other. The crystal-field parameters D and E are found to be of comparable magnitude (~ 1K) with D ~= -E. This indicates a strong mixing of the |3z^2-r^2> and |x^2-y^2> states for the real orbital configuration.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure

Coherent electron-phonon coupling and polaron-like transport in molecular wires

We present a technique to calculate the transport properties through one-dimensional models of molecular wires. The calculations include inelastic electron scattering due to electron-lattice interaction. The coupling between the electron and the lattice is crucial to determine the transport properties in one-dimensional systems subject to Peierls transition since it drives the transition itself. The electron-phonon coupling is treated as a quantum coherent process, in the sense that no random dephasing due to electron-phonon interactions is introduced in the scattering wave functions. We show that charge carrier injection, even in the tunneling regime, induces lattice distortions localized around the tunneling electron. The transport in the molecular wire is due to polaron-like propagation. We show typical examples of the lattice distortions induced by charge injection into the wire. In the tunneling regime, the electron transmission is strongly enhanced in comparison with the case of elastic scattering through the undistorted molecular wire. We also show that although lattice fluctuations modify the electron transmission through the wire, the modifications are qualitatively different from those obtained by the quantum electron-phonon inelastic scattering technique. Our results should hold in principle for other one-dimensional atomic-scale wires subject to Peierls transitions.Comment: 21 pages, 8 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.

Statefinder Diagnostic for Dilaton Dark Energy

Statefinder diagnostic is a useful method which can differ one dark energy model from the others. The Statefinder pair $\{r, s\}$ is algebraically related to the equation of state of dark energy and its first time derivative. We apply in this paper this method to the dilaton dark energy model based on Weyl-Scaled induced gravitational theory. We investigate the effect of the coupling between matter and dilaton when the potential of dilaton field is taken as the Mexican hat form. We find that the evolving trajectory of our model in the $r-s$ diagram is quite different from those of other dark energy models.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, type errors corrected, reference no. changed, accepted by Astrophysics and Space Scienc
