A Measurement of the W Boson Mass

B. Abbott, M. Abolins, B. S. Acharya

We present a measurement of the W boson mass using data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron during 1994--1995. We identify W bosons by their decays to fina…

Andreev Bound States, Surfaces and Subdominant Pairing in High Tc Superconductors

D. Rainer, H. Burkhardt, M. Fogelstrom +1

A characteristic feature of the BCS theory of superconductivity is the quantum-mechanical coherence of particle and hole states. Direct observation of particle-hole coherence in un…

Comptonization and QPO Origins in Accreting Neutron Star Systems

Hyong C. Lee, Guy S. Miller

We develop a simple, time-dependent Comptonization model to probe the origins of spectral variability in accreting neutron star systems. In the model, soft ``seed photons'' are inj…

A variational approach to necklaces formation in polyelectrolytes

Francisco J. Solis, Monica Olvera de la Cruz

By means of a variational approach we study the conditions under which a polyelectrolyte in a bad solvent will undergo a transition from a rod-like structure to a ``necklace'' stru…

Boosted three-dimensional black-hole evolutions with singularity excision

The Binary Black Hole Grand Challenge Alliance, :, G. B. Cook +43

Binary black hole interactions provide potentially the strongest source of gravitational radiation for detectors currently under development. We present some results from the Binar…

Dark Matter with Time-Dependent Mass

Greg W. Anderson, Sean M. Carroll

We propose a simple model in which the cosmological dark matter consists of particles whose mass increases with the scale factor of the universe. The particle mass is generated by…

Time, Gauge, and the Superposition Principle in Quantum Gravity

Steven Weinstein

The quantization of time-reparametrization invariant systems such as general relativity is plagued by an ambiguity relating to the role of time in the theory. If one parametrizes o…

Polarised Quark Distributions in the Nucleon from Semi-Inclusive Spin Asymmetries

Spin Muon Collaboration

We present a measurement of semi-inclusive spin asymmetries for positively and negatively charged hadrons from deep inelastic scattering of polarised muons on polarised protons and…

Probing top quark decay into light stop in the supersymmetric standard model at the upgraded Tevatron

M. Hosch, R. J. Oakes, K. Whisnant +3

We investigate the possibility of observing the exotic decay mode of the top quark into the lightest stop () and neutralino () in the minimal supersymmetri…

Variability and Stability in Radiation Hydrodynamic Accretion Flows

Guy S. Miller, Myeong-Gu Park

In this paper we examine time-dependent and three-dimensional perturbations of spherical accretion flow onto a neutron star close to its Eddington limit. Our treatment assumes a Sc…

Vibrational Decoherence in Ion Trap Quantum Computers

Anupam Garg

The ion trap quantum computer proposed by Cirac and Zoller is analyzed for decoherence due to vibrations of the ions. An adiabatic approximation exploiting the vast difference betw…
