Hamiltonian Reduction and Supersymmetric Toda Models
New formulations of the solutions of N=1 and N=2 super Toda field theory are
introduced, using Hamiltonian Reduction of the N=1 and N=2 super WZNW Models to
the super Toda Models. These parameterisations are then used to present the
Hamiltonian formulations of the super Toda theories on the spaces of solutions.Comment: 15pp., LaTe
Covariant Phase Space Formulations of Superparticles and Supersymmetric WZW Models
We present new covariant phase space formulations of superparticles moving on
a group manifold, deriving the fundamental Poisson brackets and current
algebras. We show how these formulations naturally generalise to the
supersymmetric Wess-Zumino-Witten models.Comment: 15pp., LaTe
Some Recent Results on Pair Correlation Functions and Susceptibilities in Exactly Solvable Models
Using detailed exact results on pair-correlation functions of Z-invariant
Ising models, we can write and run algorithms of polynomial complexity to
obtain wavevector-dependent susceptibilities for a variety of Ising systems.
Reviewing recent work we compare various periodic and quasiperiodic models,
where the couplings and/or the lattice may be aperiodic, and where the Ising
couplings may be either ferromagnetic, or antiferromagnetic, or of mixed sign.
We present some of our results on the square-lattice fully-frustrated Ising
model. Finally, we make a few remarks on our recent works on the pentagrid
Ising model and on overlapping unit cells in three dimensions and how these
works can be utilized once more detailed results for pair correlations in,
e.g., the eight-vertex model or the chiral Potts model or even
three-dimensional Yang-Baxter integrable models become available.Comment: LaTeX2e using iopart.cls, 10 pages, 5 figures (5 eps files), Dunk

Critical densities for the Skyrme type effective interactions
We use the stability conditions of the Landau parameters for the symmetric
nuclear matter and pure neutron matter to calculate the critical densities for
the Skyrme type effective nucleon-nucleon interactions. We find that the
critical density can be maximized by adjusting appropriately the values of the
enhancement factor associated with isovector giant dipole resonance,
the quantity which is directly related to the slope of the symmetry energy
and the Landau parameter . However, restricting , and
to vary within acceptable limits reduces the maximum value for the
critical density by . We also show that among the
various quantities characterizing the symmetric nuclear matter,
depends strongly on the isoscalar effective mass and
surface energy coefficient . For realistic values of and we
get to (fm).Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures. Physicsl Review C (in press
Quantum Loop Subalgebra and Eigenvectors of the Superintegrable Chiral Potts Transfer Matrices
It has been shown in earlier works that for Q=0 and L a multiple of N, the
ground state sector eigenspace of the superintegrable tau_2(t_q) model is
highly degenerate and is generated by a quantum loop algebra L(sl_2).
Furthermore, this loop algebra can be decomposed into r=(N-1)L/N simple sl_2
algebras. For Q not equal 0, we shall show here that the corresponding
eigenspace of tau_2(t_q) is still highly degenerate, but splits into two
spaces, each containing 2^{r-1} independent eigenvectors. The generators for
the sl_2 subalgebras, and also for the quantum loop subalgebra, are given
generalizing those in the Q=0 case. However, the Serre relations for the
generators of the loop subalgebra are only proven for some states, tested on
small systems and conjectured otherwise. Assuming their validity we construct
the eigenvectors of the Q not equal 0 ground state sectors for the transfer
matrix of the superintegrable chiral Potts model.Comment: LaTeX 2E document, using iopart.cls with iopams packages. 28 pages,

Information Content of Equity Analyst Reports
This paper investigates the market reaction to the information released in security analyst reports. It shows that the market reacts significantly and positively to changes in recommendation levels, earnings forecasts, and price targets. While changes in price targets and earnings forecasts both provide information to the market, revisions in price targets have a larger and more significant impact than comparable revisions in earnings forecasts. The text of the report is also a significant source of information as it provides the justifications supporting an analyst's summary opinion. When all of this information is considered simultaneously, some of it, notably the earnings forecasts, is subsumed. The results further show that analysts correctly predict price targets slightly over 50% of the time. Finally, the valuation methodology used does not seem to be correlated with either the market's reaction or the analyst's accuracy.
Properties of the ground F state and the excited P state of atomic thorium in cold collisions with He
We measure inelastic collisional cross sections for the ground F
state and the excited P state of atomic thorium in cold collisions with
He. We determine for Th (F) at 800 mK the ratio of the momentum-transfer to Zeeman relaxation cross sections for
collisions with He. For Th (P), we study electronic inelastic
processes and find no quenching even after collisions. We also determine
the radiative lifetime of Th (P) to be ms. This great
stability of the metastable state opens up the possibility for further study,
including trapping
Correlation functions for the three state superintegrable chiral Potts spin chain of finite lengths
We compute the correlation functions of the three state superintegrable
chiral Potts spin chain for chains of length 3,4,5. From these results we
present conjectures for the form of the nearest neighbor correlation function.Comment: 10 pages; references update
Vibrational quenching of the electronic ground state in ThO in cold collisions with He
We measure the ratio of the momentum-transfer to the vibrational
quenching cross section for the X (), , state
of molecular thorium monoxide (ThO) in collisions with atomic He between
800 mK and 2.4 K. We observe indirect evidence for ThO--He van der Waals'
complex formation, which has been predicted by theory. We determine the 3-body
recombination rate constant at 2.4 K, and establish that the binding
