Mixed symmetry states and isospin excitation in <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis> = <Emphasis Type="Italic">Z</Emphasis> nucleus <Superscript>52</Superscript>Fe

The interacting boson model with isospin (IBM-3) was applied to study the band structure and electromagnetic transition properties of the low-lying states in the even-even N = Z nucleus ⁵²Fe. The isospin excitation states with T = 0, 1 and 2 were identified, and compared with the available data. The study shows that the 2₃⁺ state is the lowest mixed symmetry state in ⁵²Fe. The excitation energy of the second 0₂⁺ state with T = 0 in nucleus ⁵²Fe was identified. The model calculations with the data show a reasonably good agreement.

Potential energy surfaces for<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis> =<Emphasis Type="Italic">Z</Emphasis>,<Superscript>20</Superscript>Ne-<Superscript>112</Superscript>Ba nuclei

We have calculated the potential energy surfaces forN = Z,²⁰Ne-¹¹²Ba nuclei in an axially deformed relativistic mean field approach. A quadratic constraint scheme is applied to determine the complete energy surface for a wide range of the quadrupole deformation. The NL3, NL-RA1 and TM1 parameter sets are used. The phenomenon of (multiple) shape coextistence is studied and the calculated ground and excited state binding energies, quadrupole deformation parameters and root mean square (rms) charge radii are compared with the available experimental data and other theoretical predictions.     

Decay properties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>∼<Emphasis Type="Italic">Z</Emphasis> nuclei

By using heavy-ion induced fusion-evaporation reactions at the on-line mass separator of GSI, the decay properties of neutron-deficient isotopes between ⁵⁶Ni and ¹⁰⁰Sn were investigated. The experimental results will be presented and discussed in comparison with model predictions.     

Once more about gauge invariance in <Emphasis Type="Italic">ϕ</Emphasis> → <Emphasis Type="Italic">γπ</Emphasis><Superscript>0</Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">π</Emphasis><Superscript>0</Superscript>

It is argued that the realization of gauge invariance condition as a consequent of cancellation between the ϕ → γf ₀ → γπ ⁰ π ⁰ resonance contribution and the ϕ → γπ ⁰ π ⁰ background one, suggested by A.V. Anisovich et al., Yad. Fiz. 68, 1614 (2005), is misleading. The text was submitted by the author in English.

The scalar contributions to the radiative decay φ→K ⁰ˉ⁰ γ are studied within the framework of the Linear Sigma Model (LσM). Theoretical predictions for the associated subprocesses φ→f ₀ γ and φ→a ₀ γ as well as the ratio φ→f ₀ γ/a ₀ γ are also given.     

Super <Emphasis Type="Italic">D</Emphasis>-Differentiation for <Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis><Superscript> ∞ </Superscript>-Supermanifolds

The concept of ‘D-Differentiation’, which, in the context of smooth manifolds, generalises Lie and covariant differentiation, is extended to R ^∞-supermanifolds under the name of ‘Super D-Differentiation’. This is done by defining new (non-linear) mappings, called ‘μ-mappings’ and by relating their non-linearity to the Leibniz rule that a derivation must satisfy when it acts on a tensor product. The resulting axiomatics, which is basis-independent and coordinate-free, is then expressed in a general basis (not necessarily holonomic). Super Lie and Super covariant differentiation are, amongst others, special cases of Super D-Differentiation. In particular, the transformation rules for the connection coefficients and the commutation coefficients of non-holonomic bases are obtained. These special cases are found to be in agreement with the DeWitt Super covariant and Super Lie derivatives.      

The relativistic consistent angular-momentum projected shell model study of the <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>=<Emphasis Type="Italic">Z</Emphasis> nucleus <Superscript>52</Superscript>Fe

The relativistic consistent angular-momentum projected shell model(ReCAPS) is used in the study of the structure and electromagnetic transitions of the low-lying states in the N=Z nucleus 52Fe.The model calculations show a reasonably good agreement with the data.The backbending at 12+ is reproduced and the energy level structure suggests that neutron-proton interactions play important roles.     

Resummed pQCD for <Emphasis Type="Italic">W</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">±</Emphasis></Superscript> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Z</Emphasis><Superscript>0</Superscript> transverse momentum spectra at RHIC and LHC

The transverse momentum distributions of W_± and Z₀ are predicted at RHIC and LHC. A resummation formalism with power corrections to the renormalization group equations is used. Shadowing effects are discussed and found to be unimportant at RHIC, but important for LHC. We study the enhancement of power corrections due to multiple scattering in nuclear collisions and numerically illustrate the weak effects of the dependence on the nuclear mass.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis> = 4 supersymmetric Eguchi-Hanson sigma model in <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis> = 1

We show that it is possible to construct a supersymmetric mechanics with four supercharges possessing not conformally flat target space. A general idea of constructing such models is presented. A particular case with Eguchi-Hanson target space is investigated in detail: we present the standard and quotient approaches to get the Eguchi-Hanson model, demonstrate their equivalence, give a full set of nonlinear constraints, study their properties and give an explicit expression for the target space metric.

Dimension and Dynamical Entropy for Metrized <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">*</Emphasis></Superscript>-Algebras

 We introduce notions of dimension and dynamical entropy for unital C ^* -algebras ``metrized' by means of , which are complex-scalar versions of the Lip-norms constitutive of Rieffel's compact quantum metric spaces. Our examples involve the UHF algebras and noncommutative tori. In particular we show that the entropy of a noncommutative toral automorphism with respect to the canonical coincides with the topological entropy of its commutative analogue.

The prospects of utilizing the strangeness production reaction γd→K ⁺ Λn for the determination of the Λn low-energy scattering parameters are investigated. The spin observables that need to be measured in order to isolate the Λn singlet (¹ S ₀) and triplet (³ S ₁) states are identified. Possible kinematical regions where the extraction of the Λn scattering lengths might be feasible are discussed.

Generation-changing interaction of sneutrinos in <Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis><Superscript> + </Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis><Superscript>-</Superscript> collisions

The measurability of generation mixing is studied on pair production of sneutrinos in e ⁺ e ^- collisions and their subsequent decays into two different charged leptons e and μ with two lighter charginos. The analyses are made systematically in a general framework of the supersymmetric extension of the standard model. The production and decay process depends on the parameters of the chargino sector as well as those of the sneutrino sector. Although generation-changing interactions are severely constrained by radiative charged-lepton decays, sizable regions in the parameter space could still be explored at e ⁺ e ^- colliders in the near future.

Reduced expression of <Emphasis Type="Italic">TAC1</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">PENK</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">SOCS2</Emphasis> in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Hcrtr-2</Emphasis> mutated narcoleptic dog brain

Background  

Narcolepsy causes dramatic behavioral alterations in both humans and dogs, with excessive sleepiness and cataplexy triggered by emotional stimuli. Deficiencies in the hypocretin system are well established as the origin of the condition; both from studies in humans who lack the hypocretin ligand (HCRT) and in dogs with a mutation in hypocretin receptor 2 (HCRTR2). However, little is known about molecular alterations downstream of the hypocretin signals.     

Hawking radiation of black holes in non-minimal <Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis></Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-type coupled Einstein–Maxwell theory

We investigate the Hawking radiation and greybody factor for a scalar field on the background of the black holes in the theory of the non-minimal R ^β F ²-coupled electromagnetic fields to gravity. For different asymptotic structures caused by the real power number β, we find that the influences of the real power number on the Hawking radiation and greybody factor are different. We also show that the different coupling constant also affects the Hawking radiation and greybody factor.

Using the loop equations we find an explicit expression for genus 1 correction in hermitian two-matrix model in terms of holomorphic objects associated to spectral curve arising in large N limit. Our result generalises known expression for F¹ in hermitian one-matrix model. We discuss the relationship between F¹, Bergman tau-function on Hurwitz spaces, G-function of Frobenius manifolds and determinant of Laplacian over spectral curve.Mathematics Subject Classifications. 15A52, 34M55.     

Tests of the final-state radiation model at DAFNE near <Emphasis Type="Italic">π</Emphasis><Superscript>+</Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">π</Emphasis><Superscript>-</Superscript> threshold

Effects due to the non-pointlike behaviour of pions in the process e ⁺ e ^-→π ⁺ π ^- γ can arise for hard photons in the final state. By means of a Monte Carlo event generator, which also includes the contribution of the direct decay φ→π ⁺ π ^- γ, we estimate these effects in the framework of the resonance perturbation theory. We consider angular cuts used in the KLOE analysis of the pion form factor at threshold. A method to reveal the effects of the non-pointlike behaviour of pions in a model-independent way is proposed.     

Glueballs,gluerings, and gluestars in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis> = 2 + 1 <Emphasis Type="Italic">SU</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>) gauge theory

The 3d gluodynamics which governs the large-T quark—gluon plasma is studied in the framework of the field correlator method. Field correlators and spacial string tension are derived through the gluelump Green’s functions. The glueball spectrum is calculated both in C = −1 as well as in C = +1 sectors, and multigluon bound states in the form of “gluon rings” and “gluon stars” are computed explicitly. Good overall agreement with available lattice data is observed. The text was submitted by the author in English.
