Defect and anisotropic gap induced quasi-one-dimensional modulation of local density of states in YBaCuO
Motivated by recent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES)
measurement that superconducting YBaCuO (YBCO) exhibits a
-symmetry gap, we show possible quasi-one-dimensional
modulations of local density of states in YBCO. These aniostropic gap and
defect induced stripe structures are most conspicuous at higher biases and
arise due to the nesting effect associated with a Fermi liquid. Observation of
these spectra by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) would unify the picture
among STM, ARPES, and inelastic neutron scattering for YBCO.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Comments on Noncommutative ADHM Construction
We extend the method of matrix partition to obtain explicitly the gauge field
for noncommutative ADHM construction in some general cases. As an application
of this method we apply it to the U(2) 2-instanton and get explicit result for
the gauge fields in the coincident instanton limit. We also easily apply it to
the noncommutative 't Hooft instantons in the appendix.Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX; an appendix added, typos corrected, refs adde
Carleson Measures and Toeplitz Operators
In this last chapter we shall describe an application of the Kobayashi distance to geometric function theory and functional analysis of holomorphic functions
Future Directions in Parity Violation: From Quarks to the Cosmos
I discuss the prospects for future studies of parity-violating (PV)
interactions at low energies and the insights they might provide about open
questions in the Standard Model as well as physics that lies beyond it. I cover
four types of parity-violating observables: PV electron scattering; PV hadronic
interactions; PV correlations in weak decays; and searches for the permanent
electric dipole moments of quantum systems.Comment: Talk given at PAVI 06 workshop on parity-violating interactions,

On the Construction of Asymmetric Orbifold Models
Various asymmetric orbifold models based on chiral shifts and chiral
reflections are investigated. Special attention is devoted to the consistency
of the models with two fundamental principles for asymmetric orbifolds :
modular invariance and the existence of a proper Hilbert space formulation for
states and operators. The interplay between these two principles is
non-trivial. It is shown, for example, that their simultaneous requirement
forces the order of a chiral reflection to be 4, instead of the naive 2. A
careful explicit construction is given of the associated one-loop partition
functions. At higher loops, the partition functions of asymmetric orbifolds are
built from the chiral blocks of associated symmetric orbifolds, whose pairings
are determined by degenerations to one-loop.Comment: 40 pages, no figures, typos correcte
Two-Loop Superstrings V: Gauge Slice Independence of the N-Point Function
A systematic construction of superstring scattering amplitudes for
massless NS bosons to two loop order is given, based on the projection of
supermoduli space onto super period matrices used earlier for the superstring
measure in the first four papers of this series. The one important new
difficulty arising for the -point amplitudes is the fact that the projection
onto super period matrices introduces corrections to the chiral vertex
operators for massless NS bosons which are not pure (1,0) differential forms.
However, it is proved that the chiral amplitudes are closed differential forms,
and transform by exact differentials on the worldsheet under changes of gauge
slices. Holomorphic amplitudes and independence of left from right movers are
recaptured after the extraction of terms which are Dolbeault exact in one
insertion point, and de Rham closed in the remaining points. This allows a
construction of GSO projected, integrated superstring scattering amplitudes
which are independent of the choice of gauge slices and have only physical
kinematical singularities.Comment: 33 pages, no figur
Baryon Tri-local Interpolating Fields
We systematically investigate tri-local (non-local) three-quark baryon fields
with U_L(2)*U_R(2) chiral symmetry, according to their Lorentz and isospin
(flavor) group representations. We note that they can also be called as
"nucleon wave functions" due to this full non-locality. We study their chiral
transformation properties and find all the possible chiral multiplets
consisting J=1/2 and J=3/2 baryon fields. We find that the axial coupling
constant |g_A| = 5/3 is only for nucleon fields belonging to the chiral
representation (1/2,1)+(1,1/2) which contains both nucleon fields and Delta
fields. Moreover, all the nucleon fields belonging to this representation have
|g_A| = 5/3.Comment: 8 pages, 3 tables, accepted by EPJ
A mathematical analysis of the evolution of perturbations in a modified Chaplygin gas model
One approach in modern cosmology consists in supposing that dark matter and
dark energy are different manifestations of a single `quartessential' fluid.
Following such idea, this work presents a study of the evolution of
perturbations of density in a flat cosmological model with a modified Chaplygin
gas acting as a single component. Our goal is to obtain properties of the model
which can be used to distinguish it from another cosmological models which have
the same solutions for the general evolution of the scale factor of the
universe, without the construction of the power spectrum. Our analytical
results, which alone can be used to uniquely characterize the specific model
studied in our work, show that the evolution of the density contrast can be
seen, at least in one particular case, as composed by a spheroidal wave
function. We also present a numerical analysis which clearly indicates as one
interesting feature of the model the appearence of peaks in the evolution of
the density constrast.Comment: 21 pages, accepted for publication in General Relativity and

Imaging Sources with Fast and Slow Emission Components
We investigate two-proton correlation functions for reactions in which fast
dynamical and slow evaporative proton emission are both present. In such cases,
the width of the correlation peak provides the most reliable information about
the source size of the fast dynamical component. The maximum of the correlation
function is sensitive to the relative yields from the slow and fast emission
components. Numerically inverting the correlation function allows one to
accurately disentangle fast dynamical from slow evaporative emission and
extract details of the shape of the two-proton source.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figure
Measurements of the observed cross sections for exclusive light hadrons containing at , 3.650 and 3.6648 GeV
By analyzing the data sets of 17.3, 6.5 and 1.0 pb taken,
respectively, at , 3.650 and 3.6648 GeV with the BES-II
detector at the BEPC collider, we measure the observed cross sections for
, , ,
and at the three energy
points. Based on these cross sections we set the upper limits on the observed
cross sections and the branching fractions for decay into these
final states at 90% C.L..Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure
