A Feynman graph selection tool in GRACE system
We present a Feynman graph selection tool {\tt grcsel}, which is an
interpreter written in C language. In the framework of {\tt GRACE}, it enables
us to get a subset of Feynman graphs according to given conditions.Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures, Latex, ACAT200
Suzaku View of Magnetic Cataclysmic Variables
Results of magnetic cataclysmic variable studies performed with the Suzaku satellite are reviewed in this article. Particular emphasis is placed on the recent update of X-ray spectral model of intermediate polars, possible kinematically redshifted fluorescent Fe K emission lines, and the magnetic CV contribution to the Galactic ridge X-ray emission
Anomalous Quartic and Couplings in Collision With Initial Beams and Final State Polarizations
The constraints on the anomalous quartic and
gauge boson couplings are investigated through the processes
and . Considering the
longitudinal and transverse polarization states of the final W or Z boson and
incoming beam polarizations we find 95% confidence level limits on the
anomalous coupling parameters and with an integrated luminosity
of 500 and =0.5, 1 TeV energies. Assuming the
couplings are independent of the
couplings we show that the longitudinal polarization state of the final gauge
boson improves the sensitivity to anomalous couplings by a factor of 2-3
depending on energy and coupling. An extra enhancement in sensitivity by a
factor of 1.3 comes from a set of initial beam polarizations
Observation of an energetic radiation burst from mountain-top thunderclouds
During thunderstorms on 2008 September 20, a simultaneous detection of gamma
rays and electrons was made at a mountain observatory in Japan located 2770 m
above sea level. Both emissions, lasting 90 seconds, were associated with
thunderclouds rather than lightning. The photon spectrum, extending to 10 MeV,
can be interpreted as consisting of bremsstrahlung gamma rays arriving from a
source which is 60 - 130 m in distance at 90% confidence level. The observed
electrons are likely to be dominated by a primary population escaping from an
acceleration region in the clouds.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in Physical Review
