Ultimate speed of the supercurrent and its pairing mechanism
Recently, the room-temperature superconductor (RTSC) was discovered as a
two-dimensional (2D) square lattice made of a metal wherein positive charges,
i.e. holes, were heavily concentrated. The experimental result for the critical
magnetic field was fully consistent with the view on the RTSC that its
lattice unit -- a metal island -- is filled with the Slater's atoms. Each
Slater's atom has the expanded diameter of 14.5 nm in order to have perfect
diamagnetism with the magnitude corresponding to a single flux quantum
. Its expanded orbit is associated with the fine structure constant
. In this paper, another important critical value
-- the critical current -- is reported. It was found that the
supercurrent has achieved the ultimate speed of matter, i.e., the speed of
light, . Beginning with a warm-up exercise for the Bohr's atom, how the
Slater's atom is formed and why the appears are shown. These considerations
lead to a simple view on the pairing mechanism of superconductivity, which also
gives an ample indication of the most mysterious physical number .
Finally, it is shown that the proposed pairing mechanism in terms of London's
canonical momentum naturally generates the perfect diamagnetic of
the Slater's atom, and the superconducting energy gap is predicted.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures + appendi
Possible room temperature superconductivity in an Nb holey sheet as a result of a first order phase transition
By drilling periodic thru-holes in a suspended film, the phonon system can be
modified. Motivated by the BCS theory, the technique -- so-called phonon
engineering -- was applied to a niobium (Nb) sheet. It was found that during a
cooling cycle its electrical resistance dropped to zero at 175 K. More
unexpectedly, during the subsequent warming cycle, the zero-resistance state
persisted up to 290 K. Neither these high-temperature transitions nor the
irreversibility can be accounted for by the BCS theory. Yet the extraordinary
phenomenon was reproduced many times, therefore, there must be a new physics or
superconductivity as the solid foundation of these phenomena. In addition to
the electrical results, this study reports magnetic results such as
magnetization drop and flux trapping at 300 K. Another experimental fact that
the metallic holey sheet is partly oxidized to form a niobium-oxygen square
lattice is also remarkable since it has points of resemblance to a
copper-oxygen plane, the fundamental component of cuprate high-
superconductors.Comment: 12 pages, 8 figures, and Supplementary material. arXiv admin note:

Astrophysical Condition on the attolensing as a possible probe for a modified gravity theory
We investigate the wave effect in the gravitational lensing by a black hole
with very tiny mass less than 10^-19 solar mass, which is called attolensing,
motivated by a recent report that the lensing signature might be a possible
probe of a modified gravity theory in the braneworld scenario. We focus on the
finite source size effect and the effect of the relative motion of the source
to the lens, which are influential to the wave effect in the attolensing.
Astrophysical condition that the lensed interference signature can be a probe
of the modified gravity theory is demonstrated. The interference signature in
the microlensing system is also discussed.Comment: Accepted for publication in IJMP
Fermions on one or fewer Kinks
We find the full spectrum of fermion bound states on a Z_2 kink. In addition
to the zero mode, there are int[2 m_f/m_s] bound states, where m_f is the
fermion and m_s the scalar mass. We also study fermion modes on the background
of a well-separated kink-antikink pair. Using a variational argument, we prove
that there is at least one bound state in this background, and that the energy
of this bound state goes to zero with increasing kink-antikink separation, 2L,
and faster than e^{-a2L} where a = min(m_s, 2 m_f). By numerical evaluation, we
find some of the low lying bound states explicitly.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figure
Aharonov-Bohm Radiation of Fermions
We analyze Aharonov-Bohm radiation of charged fermions from oscillating
solenoids and cosmic strings. We find that the angular pattern of the radiation
has features that differ significantly from that for bosons. For example,
fermionic radiation in the lowest harmonic is approximately isotropically
distributed around an oscillating solenoid, whereas for bosons the radiation is
dipolar. We also investigate the spin polarization of the emitted
fermion-antifermion pair. Fermionic radiation from kinks and cusps on cosmic
strings is shown to depend linearly on the ultraviolet cut-off, suggesting
strong emission at an energy scale comparable to the string energy scale.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figures. Version 2: Expanded discussion on boundary

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bioaktivitas ekstrak P. australis terhadap bakteri S. epidermidis. Metode yang digunakan dalam uji bioaktivitas adalah uji Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) dan uji Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC). Pengujian bioaktivitas dilakukan dengan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 5 perlakuan yaitu seri konsentrasi ekstrak 30%, 60%, 90%, kontrol negatif (CMC 1%) dan kontrol positif (cotrimoksazole). Penentuan nilai MIC dengan analisis kekeruhan menggunakan spektrofotometer (ƛ630 nm) sedangkan nilai MBC dengan metode pour plate. Data hasil uji MBC dianalisis menggunakan ANOVA one way kemudian dilanjutkan dengan Uji Tukey. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan nilai MIC (Kadar Hambat Minimal) adalah konsentrasi 90%. Hasil analisa statistika ANOVA one way data uji MBC menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara pemberian ekstrak dengan total koloni yang tumbuh pada media NA. Uji Tukey menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak P. australis yang menunjukkan bioaktivitas terbaik terhadap S. epidermidis adalah konsentrasi 90% dengan selisih 631 koloni dengan konsentrasi 60% dan 658 koloni dengan konsentrasi 30%. Total koloni yang tumbuh pada media NA dengan perlakuan konsentrasi ekstrak 90% adalah 31 koloni. Ekstrak etanol Padina australis memiliki bioaktivitas dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri S. epidermidis. Nilai MIC ekstrak P. australis terhadap bakteri S. epidermidis adalah konsentrasi 90%. Nilai MBC tidak diketahui dikarenakan pada pengujian lanjut (MBC) konsentrasi yang menunjukkan nilai MIC merupakan konsentrasi tertinggi yaitu 90% masih ditemukan koloni bakteri yang tumbuh pada media N

Fenugreek seed saponin is one alternative of antifertilitas medicinal plants. Research purposes is to determine the effect of the fenugreek seeds saponin againts the reproductive organ, that is weight and histological structure of the testis and epididymis Sprague Dawley® rat. Research design using randomized design complete. The control group was given distilled water, the treatment group were given fenugreek seed saponin with doses of 40, 80, & 120 mg/kg bw. Treatment is administered orally 1x/day for 24 days. Award saponin start dose of 40 mg/kg bw can reduce the weight of the testes and reduce the size of the diameter of seminiferous tubules. Thick germ cells begin to be affected at higher doses, 120 mg/kg bw. Epididymis weight is reduced significantly compared to the control start at dose 80 mg/kg bw and giving a higher dose, 120 mg/kg bw significantly further reduces the weight of the epididymis. Saponin administration starting dose of 80 mg/kg bw already significantly reduced the thickness of the epithelium of the epididymis. Giving a higher dose of 120 mg/kg bw increasingly signifcant cause epididymal epithelium thickness thinner. It can be concluded that the administration of saponin fenugreek seeds caused a reduction in weight and histological changes in the testis and epididymis structure of rat Spraque Dawley
