Monte-Carlo Simulation of Domain-Wall Network in Two-dimensional Extended Supersymmetric Theory
We will show that 2-dimensional N=2-extended supersymmetric theory can have
solitonic solution using the Hamilton-Jacobi method of classical mechanics.
Then it is shown that the Bogomol'nyi mass bound is saturated by these
solutions and triangular mass inequality is satisfied. At the end, we will
mention domain-wall structure in 3-dimensional spacetime.Comment: Talk given at International Symposium on Non-Equilibrium and

A practical approach to switching-loss reduction in a large-capacity static VAr compensator based on voltage-source inverters
This paper presents a simple method for reduction of switching and snubbing losses in a large-capacity static VAr compensator (SVC) consisting of multiple three-phase voltage-source square-wave inverters. The proposed method is characterized by a “commutation capacitor” connected in parallel with each switching device. The commutation capacitor allows the SVC to perform zero-voltage switching, and to reduce switching losses. The electric charge stored in the commutation capacitor is not dissipated, but regenerated to the DC-link capacitor. Moreover, a soft-starting method for the SVC is also presented to avoid forming a short circuit across the commutation capacitor during startup. Experimental results obtained from a 10 kVAr laboratory setup are shown to verify the viability of the operating principle of the commutation capacitor </p
Density Discontinuity of a Neutron Star and Gravitational Waves
We calculate quasi-normal f- and g-modes of a neutron star with density
discontinuity, which may appear in a phase transition at extreme high density.
We find that discontinuity will reflect largely on the f-mode, and that the
g-mode could also be important for a less massive star.Comment: REVTeX,18 pages, 8 figure
