    Spherical Domain Wall formed by Field Dynamics of Hawking Radiation and Spontaneous Charging-up of Black Hole

    Full text link
    We investigate the Hawking radiation in the gauge-Higgs-Yukawa theory. The ballistic model is proposed as an effective description of the system. We find that a spherical domain wall around the black hole is formed by field dynamics rather than thermal phase-transition. The formation is a general property of the black hole whose Hawking temperature is equal to or greater than the energy scale of the theory. The formation of the electroweak wall and that of the GUT wall are shown. We also find a phenomenon of the spontaneous charging-up of the black hole by the wall. The Hawking radiation drives a mechanism of the charge-transportation into the black hole when C- and CP-violation are assumed. The mechanism can strongly transport the hyper-charge into a black hole of the electroweak scale.Comment: 24 pages, 6 figures, LaTeX2e with elsart-style and graphicx-macr

    Upper Bounds for the Critical Car Densities in Traffic Flow Problems

    Full text link
    In most models of traffic flow, the car density pp is the only free parameter in determining the average car velocity ⟨v⟩\langle v \rangle. The critical car density pcp_c, which is defined to be the car density separating the jamming phase (with ⟨v⟩=0\langle v \rangle = 0) and the moving phase (with ⟨v⟩>0\langle v \rangle > 0), is an important physical quantity to investigate. By means of simple statistical argument, we show that pc<1p_c < 1 for the Biham-Middleton-Levine model of traffic flow in two or higher spatial dimensions. In particular, we show that pc≤11/12p_{c} \leq 11/12 in 2 dimension and pc≤1−(D−12D)Dp_{c} \leq 1 - \left( \frac{D-1}{2D} \right)^D in DD (D>2D > 2) dimensions.Comment: REVTEX 3.0, 5 pages with 1 figure appended at the back, Minor revision, to be published in the Sept issue of J.Phys.Soc.Japa
