Critical phenomena in higher curvature charged AdS black holes

In this paper we have studied the critical phenomena in higher curvature charged black holes in the anti-de Sitter (AdS) space-time. As an example we have considered the third order Lovelock-Born-Infeld black holes in AdS space-time. We have analytically derived the thermodynamic quantities of the system. Our analysis revealed the onset of a higher order phase transition in the black hole leading to an infinite discontinuity in the specific heat at constant charge at the critical points. Our entire analysis is based on the canonical framework where we have fixed the charge of the black hole. In an attempt to study the behavior of the thermodynamic quantities near the critical points we have derived the critical exponents of the system explicitly. Although the values of the critical points have been determined numerically, the critical exponents are calculated analytically. Our results fit well with the thermodynamic scaling laws. The scaling hypothesis is also seen to be consistent with these scaling laws. We find that all types of AdS black holes, studied so far, indeed belong to the same universality class. Moreover these results are consistent with the mean field theory approximation. We have derived the suggestive values of the other two critical exponents associated with the correlation function and correlation length on the critical surface.Comment: LaTex, 29 pages, 14 figures, modified version, accepted for publication in the Advances in High Energy Physic

Magnetic response of holographic Lifshitz superconductors:Vortex and Droplet solutions

In this paper a holographic model of $s$-wave superconductor with anisotropic Lifshitz scaling has been considered. In the presence of an external magnetic field our holographic model exhibits both vortex and droplet solutions. Based on analytic methods we have shown that the anisotropy has no effect on the vortex and droplet solutions whereas it may affect the condensation. Our vortex solution closely resembles the Ginzburg-Landau theory and a relation between the upper critical magnetic field and superconducting coherence length has been speculated from this comparison. Using Sturm-Liouville method, the effect of anisotropy on the critical parameters in insulator/superconductor phase transitions has been analyzed.Comment: 11 pages, no figure, Accepted for publication in Phys.

Promoting Multilingual Reader in Efl Classrooms: a Portrait on the Reading Strategies

This paper reports on how English as a Foreign Language Learner (EFL learners) explored their reading strategis when dealing with L1 and L2 texts. The destination of reading, a notion called comprehension, is by no means is a complicated process. This complexity can only be simplified only if a reader can employ the available reading strategies. The capacity to employ and develop the 20 reading strategies, as suggested by Grabe and Stoller (2002), can be injected both in L1 and L2 context. In EFL reading context, comprehension must first take place in students\u27 first language (L1), and eventually lead to comprehension in their second language (L2) (Alwasilah 2012; 2001). From this perspective, EFL classroom now serves as a ‘sacred\u27 site for promoting multilingual reader in which students are encouraged to demonstrate engagement dynamically both in their L1 and L2. From the 20 strategies employed by two selected respondents, four strategies seem to be a big puzzle for EFL leerners: focus on generic structure, intertextuality, inferences, and discourse markers. This, however, should be seen as a milestone rather than as a weakness. The more strategies employed, the more strategic the readers will be. This is the phenomenon captured in EFL reading classroom presented in this study. Keywords: L1 and L2 reading, strategic reading, comprehension

PENERIMAAN DIRI SESEORANG SEBAGAI ORANG DENGAN HIV/AIDS (ODHA) DI MALANG (Study Di Yayasan Cahaya Kasih Peduli WPA Turen)

People with HIV/AIDS self-acceptance of their status is a complex problem for people with HIV/AIDS. One of the problems of people living with HIV/AIDS in self-acceptance occurs at the Cahaya Kasih Care Foundation WPA Turen. In the process of self-acceptance, people with HIV/AIDS often experience problems. This study aims to describe the problems experienced by people with HIV/AIDS and the process of people with HIV/AIDS in accepting their status. This study uses a qualitative approach and a case study type of research. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, and documentation. The research subject determination technique used was purposive sampling from Sugiyono. While the data validity technique used is a credibility test. The results of the study show that in self-acceptance people with HIV/AIDS experience psychological, physical and social problems. Meanwhile, in the process of self-acceptance of people living with HIV/AIDS, they experience the following stages: aversion, curiosity, tolerance, allowing, friendship/awakening

Water jet/spray measurement analysis

The objective of this study was to provide analysis of data obtained under a previous contract entitled Characterization of Drop Spectra from High Volume Flow Water Jets. Measurements of drop spectra were obtained in the spray resulting from the breakup of high volume flow water jets from a variety of nozzle types. The drop spectra measurements were obtained from two drop spectrometers covering a range from 10 microns to 12 millimeters diameter. The task addressed was to select representative spectra from the individual tests and provide analyses in both numerical and graphical formats as outlined in the proposal. The intended application of these results is an evaluation of the feasibility of fog clearing by high volume water sprays. During the tests, a fog event occurred making it possible to test the concept of fog clearing. Visual range data and fog drop spectra were analyzed, with particular emphasis placed on the modification of these parameters due to the water spray

On the Exchange Interactions in Holographic p-adic CFT

There is a renewed interest in conformal field theories (CFT) on ultrametric spaces (p-adic field and its algebraic extensions) in view of their natural adaptability in the holographic setting. We compute the contributions from the exchange interactions to the four-point correlator of the CFT using Witten diagrams with three-scalar interaction vertex. Together with the contributions from the bulk four-point interaction, the contact term, these provide a complete answer. We remark on the singularity structure in Mellin space, and argue that all these models are analogues of adS_2/CFT_1.Comment: 1+12 pages, 7 figures (an error in the interpretation of the spectrum, and typos, corrected; text modified accordingly, and acknowledgement added
