Algebraic spinors and SUSY

Using the Dirac-Kaehler formalism, we formulate the supersymmetric Wess-Zumino model. Special attention is paid to the proper definition of a two-dimensional spinor, its adjoint, and its generalization to other dimensions.     

Charged-particle multiplicity density at midrapidity in central Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[S(NN)] = 2.76 TeV

The first measurement of the charged-particle multiplicity density at midrapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair √ S NN = 2.76 TeV is presented. For an event sample corresponding to the most central 5% of the hadronic cross section, the pseudorapidity density of primary charged particles at midrapidity is 1584 ± 4(stat) ± 76(syst), which corresponds to 8.3 ± 0.4(syst) per participating nucleon pair. This represents an increase of about a factor 1.9 relative to pp collisions at similar collision energies, and about a factor 2.2 to central Au-Au collisions at √ S NN = 2.76 TeV. This measurement provides the first experimental constraint for models of nucleus-nucleus collisions at LHC energies.     

Elliptic flow of charged particles in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[S(NN)] = 2.76 TeV

We report the first measurement of charged particle elliptic flow in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[S(NN)] =2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is performed in the central pseudorapidity region (|η|<0.8) and transverse momentum range 0.2

Multispike solutions for the Brezis–Nirenberg problem in dimension three

We consider the problem $\mathrm{\Delta }u+\lambda u+u^5=0$, $u>0$, in a smooth bounded domain Ω in ${\mathbb{R}}^3$, under zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. We obtain solutions to this problem exhibiting multiple bubbling behavior at k different points of the domain as λ tends to a special positive value ${\lambda }_0$, which we characterize in terms of the Green function of $?\mathrm{\Delta }?\lambda$.     

Double electron capture cross-sections by protons in collisions with He

Double electron capture (DEC) by protons from He was studied in collisions at energies in the keV regime, theoretically and experimentally. Theoretical cross-sections were calculated using the electron nuclear dynamic approach and a binomial distribution method in the energy range 1–100 keV. Experimental cross-sections were measured by means of the grow-rate method in the energy range of 4–10 keV. The cross-sections measured are consistent with those of the previous data at the high energies of the measured interval and show a different trend for the low energy. This behavior is consistent with those of other DEC cross-sections measured by protons from He-like targets. With the two collision models, it is proven that the reference data for this system are consistent only with the assumption of uncorrelated electrons and with independent target-projectile nuclei dynamics.     

Weak Allee effect in a predator–prey model involving memory with a hump

In this paper we consider a predator–prey system which has a factor that allows for a reduction in fitness due to declining population sizes, often termed an Allee effect. We study the influence of the weak Allee effect which is included in the prey equation and we determine conditions for the occurrence of Hopf bifurcation. The prey population is limited by the carrying capacity of the environment, and the predator growth rate depends on past quantities of the prey which is represented by a weight function that specifies a moment in the past when the quantity of food is the most important from the point of view of the present growth of the predator. The stability properties of the system and the biological issues of the memory and Allee effect on the coexistence of the two species are studied. Finally we present some simulations to verify the veracity of the analytical conclusions.     

Catalytic Behavior of Mono-N-Protected Amino-Acid Ligands in Ligand-Accelerated C−H Activation by Palladium(II)

Mono-N-protected amino acids (MPAAs) are increasingly common ligands in Pd-catalyzed C−H functionalization reactions. Previous studies have shown how these ligands accelerate catalytic turnover by facilitating the C−H activation step. Here, it is shown that MPAA ligands exhibit a second property commonly associated with ligand-accelerated catalysis: the ability to support catalytic turnover at substoichiometric ligand-to-metal ratios. This catalytic role of the MPAA ligand is characterized in stoichiometric C−H activation and catalytic C−H functionalization reactions. Palladacycle formation with substrates bearing carboxylate and pyridine directing groups exhibit a 50–100-fold increase in rate when only 0.05 equivalents of MPAA are present relative to Pd^II. These and other mechanistic data indicate that facile exchange between MPAAs and anionic ligands coordinated to Pd^II enables a single MPAA to support C−H activation at multiple Pd^II centers.     

A cryptosystem based on cellular automata

Cryptosystems for binary information are based on two primitives: an indexed family of permutations of binary words and a generator of pseudorandom sequences of indices. A very efficient implementation of the primitives is constructed using the phenomenon of synchronization in cellular automata. (c) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
