Bethe Ansatz calculation of the spectral gap of the asymmetric exclusion process

O. Golinelli, K. Mallick

We present a new derivation of the spectral gap of the totally asymmetric exclusion process on a half-filled ring of size L by using the Bethe Ansatz. We show that, in the large L…

Hints for a fast precessing relativistic radio jet in LS I +61 303

M. Massi, M. Ribo, J. M. Paredes +3

Here we discuss two consecutive MERLIN observations of the X-ray binary LS I +61 303. The first observation shows a double-sided jet extending up to about 200 AU on both sides of a…
