    Particle Correlation Results from the ALICE Experiment at LHC

    Full text link
    Measurements of two-particle correlations of inclusive and identified charged particles performed with the ALICE detector in Pb--Pb collisions at sNN=2.76TeV\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76 TeV are presented. The near-side jet shape is analyzed in the low pTp_{\rm T} regions (1<1<p_{\rm T}<8GeV/c<8GeV/c). While the RMS of the peak in Δφ\Delta\varphi-direction is independent of centrality within uncertainties, we find significant broadening in Δη\Delta\eta-direction from peripheral to central collisions. The near-side p/πp/\pi ratio of particles associated to a trigger particle from jet fragmentation in the central Pb--Pb collisions is consistent with vacuum fragmentation in the measured momentum region (1.5<1.5<p_{\rm T}<4.5GeV\c).Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, proceeding for Physics at LHC 2012, vancouver, Canad

    Pulsar Velocity with Three-Neutrino Oscillations in Non-adiabatic Processes

    Full text link
    We have studied the position dependence of neutrino energy on the Kusenko-Segr\`{e} mechanism as an explanation of the proper motion of pulsars. The mechanism is also examined in three-generation mixing of neutrinos and in a non-adiabatic case. The position dependence of neutrino energy requires the higher value of magnetic field such as B∼3×1015B\sim 3\times 10^{15} Gauss in order to explain the observed proper motion of pulsars. It is shown that possible non-adiabatic processes decrease the neutrino momentum asymmetry, whereas an excess of electron neutrino flux over other flavor neutrino fluxes increases the neutrino momentum asymmetry. It is also shown that a general treatment with all three neutrinos does not modify the result of the two generation treatment if the standard neutrino mass hierarchy is assumed.Comment: 8 pages, REVTEX, no figure

    Disassortativity of random critical branching trees

    Full text link
    Random critical branching trees (CBTs) are generated by the multiplicative branching process, where the branching number is determined stochastically, independent of the degree of their ancestor. Here we show analytically that despite this stochastic independence, there exists the degree-degree correlation (DDC) in the CBT and it is disassortative. Moreover, the skeletons of fractal networks, the maximum spanning trees formed by the edge betweenness centrality, behave similarly to the CBT in the DDC. This analytic solution and observation support the argument that the fractal scaling in complex networks originates from the disassortativity in the DDC.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figure
