Causal Structure and Birefringence in Nonlinear Electrodynamics
We investigate the causal structure of general nonlinear electrodynamics and
determine which Lagrangians generate an effective metric conformal to
Minkowski. We also proof that there is only one analytic nonlinear
electrodynamics presenting no birefringence.Comment: 11 pages, no figure

Quantum Non-Demolition Test of Bipartite Complementarity
We present a quantum circuit that implements a non-demolition measurement of
complementary single- and bi-partite properties of a two-qubit system:
entanglement and single-partite visibility and predictability. The system must
be in a pure state with real coefficients in the computational basis, which
allows a direct operational interpretation of those properties. The circuit can
be realized in many systems of interest to quantum information.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
Electromagnetic structure and weak decay of pseudoscalar mesons in a light-front QCD-inspired model
We study the scaling of the meson mass splitting and the
pseudoscalar weak decay constants with the mass of the meson, as seen in the
available experimental data. We use an effective light-front QCD-inspired
dynamical model regulated at short-distances to describe the valence component
of the pseudoscalar mesons. The experimentally known values of the mass
splittings, decay constants (from global lattice-QCD averages) and the pion
charge form factor up to 4 [GeV/c] are reasonably described by the modelComment: 27 Pages, 7 eps figures,use revtex
Weak decay constant of pseudscalar meson in a QCD-inspired model
We show that a linear scaling between the weak decay constants of
pseudoscalar and the vector mesons masses is supported by the available
experimental data. The decay constant scale as (f_m
is decay constant and M_V vector meson ground state mass). This simple form is
justified within a renormalized light-front QCD-inpired model for
quark-antiquark bound states.Comment: 4 pages, use revtex style. To appear "Brazilian Journal of Physics

Ultra-cold fermions in real or fictitious magnetic fields: The BCS-BEC evolution and the type-I--type-II transition
We study ultra-cold neutral fermion superfluids in the presence of fictitious
magnetic fields, as well as charged fermion superfluids in the presence of real
magnetic fields. Charged fermion superfluids undergo a phase transition from
type-I to type-II superfluidity, where the magnetic properties of the
superfluid change from being a perfect diamagnet without vortices to a partial
diamagnet with the emergence of the Abrikosov vortex lattice. The transition
from type-I to type-II superfluidity is tunned by changing the scattering
parameter (interaction) for fixed density. We also find that neutral fermion
superfluids such as Li and K are extreme type-II superfluids, and
that they are more robust to the penetration of a fictitious magnetic field in
the BCS-BEC crossover region near unitarity, where the critical fictitious
magnetic field reaches a maximum as a function of the scattering parameter
(interaction).Comment: 4+ pages with 2 figure
