CUORE: A Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events
C. Arnaboldi, F. T. Avignone, J. Beeman +36
CUORE is a proposed tightly packed array of 1000 TeO2 bolometers, each being a cube 5 cm on a side with a mass of 760 g. The array consists of 25 vertical towers, arranged in a squ…
Simultaneous Measurement of the B0 Meson Lifetime and Mixing Frequency with B0 --> D*- l+ nu Decays
the BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
We measure the B0 lifetime τ_{B0} and the B0-B0bar oscillation frequency Δm_d with a sample of approximately 14,000 exclusively reconstructed B0 --> D*- l+ nu signal events, select…
AdS_2 Supergravity and Superconformal Quantum Mechanics
Marco Astorino, Sergio Cacciatori, Dietmar Klemm +1
We investigate the asymptotic dynamics of topological anti-de Sitter supergravity in two dimensions. Starting from the formulation as a BF theory, it is shown that the AdS_2 bounda…
Noncommutative deformation of four dimensional Einstein gravity
Matteo A. Cardella, Daniela Zanon
We construct a model for noncommutative gravity in four dimensions, which reduces to the Einstein-Hilbert action in the commutative limit. Our proposal is based on a gauge formulat…
Neutrino mass parameters from Kamland, SNO and other solar evidence
P. Aliani, V. Antonelli, M. Picariello +1
An updated analysis of all available neutrino oscillation evidence in Reactor (Kamland, first 145 days of data) and Solar experiments (SK day and night spectra, global rates from H…
Transverse Fluctuations in the Driven Lattice Gas
Sergio Caracciolo, Andrea Gambassi, Massimiliano Gubinelli +1
We define a transverse correlation length suitable to discuss the finite-size-scaling behavior of an out-of-equilibrium lattice gas, whose correlation functions decay algebraically…
Comments on the Equivalence between Chern-Simons Theory and Topological Massive Yang-Mills Theory in 3D
Andrea Quadri
The classical formal equivalence upon a redefinition of the gauge connection between Chern-Simons theory and topological massive Yang-Mills theory in three-dimensional Euclidean sp…
Single-Spin Asymmetries and Transversity
Philip G. Ratcliffe
A pedagogical introduction to single-spin asymmetries (SSA's) and transversity is presented. Discussion in some detail is made of certain aspects of (SSA's) in lepton-nucleon and i…
The XMM-Newton view of the radio-quiet neutron star 1E 1207.4-5209
A. De Luca, S. Mereghetti, P. A. Caraveo +3
We have observed the radio-quiet X-ray pulsar 1E 1207.4-5209 with the high throughput EPIC cameras onboard XMM-Newton. The spectrum of this peculiar source is characterized by two…
On the SL(2,R) symmetry in Yang-Mills Theories in the Landau, Curci-Ferrari and Maximal Abelian Gauge
D. Dudal, V. E. R. Lemes, M. Picariello +3
The existence of a SL(2,R) symmetry is discussed in SU(N) Yang-Mills in the maximal Abelian Gauge. This symmetry, also present in the Landau and Curci-Ferrari gauge, ensures the ab…
New Limits on Naturally Occurring Electron Capture of 123Te
A. Alessandrello, C. Arnaboldi, C. Brofferio +15
Electron capture of 123Te from the K shell has been investigated in a new underground search with an array of 340 g TeO_2 thermal detectors. We find that some previous indication o…
Role of bulk and of interface contacts in the behaviour of model dimeric proteins
G. Tiana, D. Provasi, R. A. Broglia
Some dimeric proteins first fold and then dimerize (three--state dimers) while others first dimerize and then fold (two--state dimers). Within the framework of a minimal lattice mo…
HST proper motion confirms the optical detection of PSR B1929+10
A. De Luca, R. P. Mignani, P. A. Caraveo +1
We have measured the proper motion of the candidate optical counterpart of the old, nearby pulsar PSR B1929+10, using a set of HST/STIS images collected in 2001, 7.2 years after th…
After Sno and Before Kamland: Present and Future of Solar and Reactor Neutrino Physics
P. Aliani, V. Antonelli, R. Ferrari +2
We present a short review of the existing evidence in favor of neutrino mass and neutrino oscillations which come from different kinds of experiments. We focus our attention in par…
Perturbative Computation of Glueball Superpotentials
R. Dijkgraaf, M. T. Grisaru, C. S. Lam +2
Using N=1 superspace techniques in four dimensions we show how to perturbatively compute the superpotential generated for the glueball superfield upon integrating out massive charg…
BPS equations in N=2, D=5 supergravity with hypermultiplets
Sergio L. Cacciatori, Alessio Celi, Daniela Zanon
With the general aim to classify BPS solutions in N=2, D=5 supergravities interacting with an arbitrary number of vector, tensor and hypermultiplets, here we begin considering the…
A Calorimetric Search on Double Beta Decay of 130Te
C. Arnaboldi, C. Brofferio, C. Bucci +13
We report on the final results of a series of experiments on double decay of 130Te carried out with an array of twenty cryogenic detectors. The set-up is made with crystals of TeO2…
