Special relativistic gravitational theory

Based on special relativity, we introduce a way to develop a new field theory from (1) the relativistic property of the particle coupling coefficient with the field, and (2) the field due to a static point source. As an example, we discuss a theory of electromagnetic and gravitational fields. The results of this special relativistic gravitational theory for the redshift and the deflection of light are the same as those deduced from general relativity. The results of experiments on the planetary perihelion procession shift and on an additional short-range gravity are more favorable to the special relativistic gravitational theory than to general relativity. We put forward a new idea to test experimentally whether the equivalence principle of general relativity is correct.Plovdiv University Paissii Hilendarskii.Moscow Institute of Railway Transport Engineers.     

Transversely polarized parton densities,their evolution and their measurement

The transverse spin asymmetry of a quark in a baryon and the linear polarization of a gluon in a vector meson are studied from thet-channel point of view. Using the Altarelli-Parisi approach, they are shown to obey independent evolution equations and to decrease with increasingQ ². We investigate the possibility to measure them at leading twist, to leading order in α and α_s and without analyzing the final polarizations. This requires simultaneous polarization of the beam and the target; the observable effect is in the azimuthal distribution of the highP _T particle or jet. Assuming a simple (quark+scalar diquark) model for the baryon, a large asymmetry is expected inp \(\bar p\) Drell-Yan collisions, a smaller one in highP _T pp collisions, from the interference term in the scattering of two identical quarks.     

Novel scaling behavior of directed polymers: Disorder distribution with long tails

We study the problem of directed polymers (DP) on a square lattice. The distribution of disorder is assumed to be independent but non-Gaussian. We show that for distributions with a power-law tailP() 1/||¹⁺ , where>2, so that the mean and variance are well defined, the scaling exponentv of the DP model depends on in a continuous fashion.
