Total Valuation Rings of Ore Extensions

We consider extensions of a total valuation ring V of a skew field K to the Ore extension K(X;σ, δ) for an endomorphism σ of K and a σ-derivation δ. It is shown that there exists an extension R of V with X ∈ R, such that ${\overline X}$ is transcendental over V/J(V) if and only if (σ,δ) is compatible with V, where ${\overline X} = X + J(R^(1))$ . In the case V is invariant, it is established that there is an invariant extension R of V in K(X;σ,δ) such that ${\overline X}$ is transcendental if and only if σ(a)V = aV and δ(a) ∈ aV for all a ∈ K.     

Graphes et ordonnés démontables, propriété de la clique fixe

This work extends to dismantable graphs many properties of dismantable posets dealing with products, exponentiation, existence of paths in a graph of all homomorphisms, fixed clique property, etc. We show that a poset is dismantlable in the sense of Rival if and only if its comparability graph is dismantlable, thus proving that, for posets, dismantlability is a comparability invariant. We establish the analogues for graphs of results of Duffus, Poguntke and Rival about fixed point sets and cores in posets.     

Midrapidity neutral-pion production in proton-proton collisions at square root s = 200 GeV

Scanning tunneling microscopy and surface simulation of zinc-blende GaN(001) intrinsic 4x reconstruction: linear gallium tetramers?

Scanning tunneling microscopy images confirm electron diffraction studies that the zinc-blende GaN(001)-4x reconstruction consists of rows aligned along [110] with a spacing along [110] of 4a. Dual-bias imaging shows a 180 degree shift of the corrugation maximum position between the profiles of empty and occupied states, in agreement with surface simulations based on the 4 x 1 linear tetramer model of Neugebauer et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 3097 (1998)]. Electronic structure calculations predict a surface band gap of 1.1 eV, close to the measured value of 1.14 eV and the previously predicted value (1.2 eV). Despite the successes of this model, high-resolution images reveal an unexpected 3x periodicity (not seen in diffraction) along the [110] row direction, indicating the need for a 4 x 3 model, and putting into question the existence of linear Ga tetramers.     

Azimuthal angle correlations for rapidity separated Hadron pairs in d+Au collisions at square root of sNN=200 GeV

Deuteron-gold (d+Au) collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider provide ideal platforms for testing QCD theories in dense nuclear matter at high energy. In particular, models suggesting strong saturation effects for partons carrying small nucleon momentum fraction (x) predict modifications to jet production at forward rapidity (deuteron-going direction) in d+Au collisions. We report on two-particle azimuthal angle correlations between charged hadrons at forward/backward (deuteron/gold going direction) rapidity and charged hadrons at midrapidity in d+Au and p+p collisions at square root of sNN=200 GeV. Jet structures observed in the correlations are quantified in terms of the conditional yield and angular width of away-side partners. The kinematic region studied here samples partons in the gold nucleus with x~0.1 to ~0.01. Within this range, we find no x dependence of the jet structure in d+Au collisions.     

Sharp Lower Bounds for the Dimension of the Global Attractor of the Sabra Shell Model of Turbulence

In this work we derive lower bounds for the Hausdorff and fractal dimensions of the global attractor of the Sabra shell model of turbulence in different regimes of parameters. We show that for a particular choice of the forcing term and for sufficiently small viscosity term ν, the Sabra shell model has a global attractor of large Hausdorff and fractal dimensions proportional to log  ν ⁻¹ for all values of the governing parameter ε, except for ε =1. The obtained lower bounds are sharp, matching the upper bounds for the dimension of the global attractor obtained in our previous work. Moreover, the complexity of the dynamics of the shell model increases as the viscosity ν tends to zero, and we describe a precise scenario of successive bifurcations for different parameters regimes. In the “three-dimensional” regime of parameters this scenario changes when the parameter ε becomes sufficiently close to 0 or to 1. We also show that in the “two-dimensional” regime of parameters, for a certain non-zero forcing term, the long-term dynamics of the model becomes trivial for every value of the viscosity.

Ground state parameters of BiH3 from infrared and millimeter-wave spectra: ground state and equilibrium structures

Unstable, short-lived BiH₃ has been synthesized and investigated by rotational spectroscopy in the range 158 (J=1-0) to 1280 GHz (J=8-7). Quadrupole and spin-rotation hyperfine structures (eQq=584.676(96) MHz), and the A₁A₂ splitting of the K=3 ground state level, have been resolved. By merging the pure rotational data with 1764 ground state combination differences obtained from the analysis of high resolution Fourier transform infrared spectra of the ν₁-ν₄ bands [J. Mol. Spectrosc. (2004) (in press)] spanning J and K values up to 16 and 14, respectively, with 0?ΔK?9, the ground state rotational and centrifugal distortion constants up to octic and sextic terms for reductions A and B, respectively, have been determined. Of the reductions of the ground state rovibrational Hamiltonian, reduction B including ε rather than h₃ as off-diagonal element is clearly favored. An experimental r₀ structure of the very-near spherical oblate symmetric top BiH₃, r(BiH)=178.82 pm and α(HBiH)=90.320°, has been deduced from the rotational constants B₀=2.64160172(18) and C₀=2.6010403(31) cm⁻¹. The derived experimental r_e structure, r_e(BiH)=177.834(50) pm and α_e(HBiH)=90.321(10)°, was determined. This is in excellent agreement with the most recent ab initio structure, r_e(BiH)=177.84 pm, and α_e(HBiH)=90.12°.     

Measurement of nonrandom event-by-event fluctuations of average transverse momentum in square root of (sNN)=200 GeV Au+Au and p+p collisions

Event-by-event fluctuations of the average transverse momentum of produced particles near midrapidity have been measured by the PHENIX Collaboration in square root of (sNN)=200 GeV Au+Au, and p+p collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The fluctuations are observed to be in excess of the expectation for statistically independent particle emission for all centralities. The excess fluctuations exhibit a dependence on both the centrality of the collision and on the pT range over which the average is calculated. Both the centrality and pT dependence can be well reproduced by a simulation of random particle production with the addition of contributions from hard-scattering processes.
