New Production Mechanism of Neutral Higgs Bosons with Right scalar tau neutrino as the LSP
Motived by the neutrino oscillation data, we consider the lightest tau
sneutrino (which is mostly the right tau sneutrino) to be
the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) in the framework of the minimal
supersymmetric Standard Model. Both the standard and the non-standard trilinear
scalar coupling terms are included for the right tau sneutrino interactions.
The decay branching ratio of
can become so large that the production rate of the lightest neutral Higgs
boson () can be largely enhanced at electron or hadron colliders, either
from the direct production of or from the decay of
charginos, neutralinos, sleptons, and the cascade decay of squarks and gluinos,
etc. Furthermore, because of the small LSP annihilation rate, can be a good candidate for cold dark matter.Comment: 11 pages, RevTex, 3 eps figures. We clarify the theoretical framework

Magnetically-induced reconstructions of the ground state in a few-electron Si quantum dot
We report unexpected fluctuations in the positions of Coulomb blockade peaks
at high magnetic fields in a small Si quantum dot. The fluctuations have a
distinctive saw-tooth pattern: as a function of magnetic field, linear shifts
of peak positions are compensated by abrupt jumps in the opposite direction.
The linear shifts have large slopes, suggesting formation of the ground state
with a non-zero angular momentum. The value of the momentum is found to be well
defined, despite the absence of the rotational symmetry in the dot.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, accepted to PR
Double-dot charge transport in Si single electron/hole transistors
We studied transport through ultra-small Si quantum dot transistors
fabricated from silicon-on-insulator wafers. At high temperatures, 4K<T<100K,
the devices show single-electron or single-hole transport through the
lithographically defined dot. At T<4K, current through the devices is
characterized by multidot transport. From the analysis of the transport in
samples with double-dot characteristics, we conclude that extra dots are formed
inside the thermally grown gate oxide which surrounds the lithographically
defined dot.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, to appear in Appl. Phys. Let
Generalized Rayleigh and Jacobi processes and exceptional orthogonal polynomials
We present four types of infinitely many exactly solvable Fokker-Planck
equations, which are related to the newly discovered exceptional orthogonal
polynomials. They represent the deformed versions of the Rayleigh process and
the Jacobi process.Comment: 17 pages, 4 figure
