Open Problems in Heavy Quarkonium Physics
Antonio Vairo
Some recent progress and a personal selection of open problems in heavy quarkonium physics (spectroscopy, decay and production) inspired by the activity of the Quarkonium Working G…
Search for a Charged Partner of the X(3872) in the B Meson Decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0
B. Aubert, BaBar Collaboration
We search for a charged partner of the X(3872) in the decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0, using 234 million BBbar events collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BaBar detecto…
The FLUKA Monte Carlo, non-perturbative QCD and Cosmic Ray cascades
G. Battistoni, A. Fassò, A. Ferrari +2
The FLUKA Monte Carlo code, presently used in cosmic ray physics, contains packages to sample soft hadronic processes which are built according to the Dual Parton Model. This is a…
Transversity and Drell-Yan -Factors
Philip G. Ratcliffe
The Drell-Yan -factors for transversely polarised hadrons are examined. Since transverse spin is peculiar in having no DIS reference point, the effects of higher-order correctio…
Branching Fractions and CP Asymmetries in B0 -> pi0pi0, B+ -> pi+pi0 and B+ -> K+pi0 Decays and Isospin Analysis of the B -> pipi System
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
Based on a sample of 227 million BBbar pairs collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC, we measure the branching fraction B(B0 -> pi0pi0) =…
Looking at structure, stability, and evolution of proteins through the principal eigenvector of contact matrices and hydrophobicity profiles
Ugo Bastolla, Markus Porto, H. Eduardo Roman +1
We review and further develop an analytical model that describes how thermodynamic constraints on the stability of the native state influence protein evolution in a site-specific m…
Non-relativistic classical mechanics for spinning particles
G. Salesi
We study the classical dynamics of non-relativistic particles endowed with spin. Non-vanishing Zitterbewegung terms appear in the equation of motion also in the small momentum limi…
Resonant and non-resonant Tunneling through a double barrier
Vladislav S. Olkhovsky, Erasmo Recami, A. K. Zaichenko
An explicit expression is obtained for the phase-time corresponding to tunneling of a (non-relativistic) particle through two rectangular barriers, both in the case of resonant and…
Transversity K Factors for Drell-Yan
Philip G. Ratcliffe
The question of the K factor in transversely polarised Drell-Yan (DY) processes is examined. The transverse-spin case is peculiar for the absence of a reference point in deeply ine…
Measurement of Branching Fraction and Dalitz Distribution for B0->D(*)+/- K0 pi-/+ Decays
B. Aubert, BABAR Collaboration
We present measurements of the branching fractions for the three-body decays B0 -> D(*)-/+ K0 pi^+/-B0 -> D(*)-/+ K*+/- using a sample of approximate…
Real symmetric random matrices and paths counting
Giovanni M. Cicuta
Exact evaluation of is here performed for real symmetric matrices of arbitrary order , up to some integer , where the matrix entries are independent iden…
Pion Corrections in Gribov's Approach to the Dyson-Schwinger Equation
Carlo Ewerz
Chiral symmetry breaking in QCD leads to the emergence of pions as Goldstone bosons. Their existence in turn affects the Green functions of the theory. Here we study the effect of…
On the Thermodynamics of Goedel Black Holes
Dietmar Klemm, Luciano Vanzo
After a brief review of Goedel-type universes in string theory, we discuss some intriguing properties of black holes immersed in such backgrounds. Among these are the upper bound o…
Computation of the strong coupling in QCD with two dynamical flavours
Michele Della Morte, Roberto Frezzotti, Jochen Heitger +3
We present a non-perturbative computation of the running of the coupling alpha_s in QCD with two flavours of dynamical fermions in the Schroedinger functional scheme. We improve ou…
Measurements of B meson decays to omega K* and omega rho
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
We describe searches for B meson decays to the charmless vector-vector final states omega K* and omega rho in 89 million B-Bbar pairs produced in e+e- annihilation at sqrt(s)=10.58…
The 1P quarkonium fine splittings at NLO
Nora Brambilla, Antonio Vairo
We calculate the 1P heavy quarkonium fine splittings at NLO and discuss the impact of the calculation on the chi_b(1P) splittings.
Recent advances in neutrinoless double beta decay search
Lino Miramonti, Franco Reseghetti
Even after the discovery of neutrino flavour oscillations, based on data from atmospheric, solar, reactor, and accelerator experiments, many characteristics of the neutrino remain…
Ion resonance instability in the Eltrap electron plasma
Giovanni Bettega, Francesco Cavaliere, Marco Cavenago +3
A small fraction of ions can destabilize the diocotron mode (off axis rotation) of an electron plasma confined in a Malmberg-Penning trap. In this paper a set of experimental measu…
Overlap of the Wilson loop with the broken-string state
F. Gliozzi, A. Rago
Numerical experiments on most gauge theories coupled with matter failed to observe string-breaking effects while measuring Wilson loops only. We show that, under rather mild assump…
Chronology Protection in anti-de Sitter
Marco M. Caldarelli, Dietmar Klemm, Pedro J. Silva
We consider 1/2 BPS excitations of AdS(5)xS(5) geometries in type IIB string theory that can be mapped into free fermion configurations according to the prescription of Lin, Lunin…
Measurement of the Ratio BR(B- --> D*0 K-)/BR(B- --> D*0 pi-) and of the CP Asymmetry of B- --> D*0(CP+) K- Decays
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
We study the decays B- --> D*0 pi- and B- --> D*0 K-, where the D*0 decays into D0 pi0, with the D0 reconstructed in the CP-even (CP+) eigenstates K- K+ and pi- pi+ and in the (non…
Mass and Isospin Effects in Multifragmentation
C. Sfienti, the ALADiN2000 Collaboration
A systematic study of isospin effects in the breakup of projectile spectators at relativistic energies has been performed with the ALADiN spectrometer at the GSI laboratory (Darmst…
Coherent Soft Particle Production in Z Decays into Three Jets
The DELPHI Collaboration, J. Abdallah
Low-energy particle production perpendicular to the event plane in three-jet events produced in Z decays in e+e- annihilation is measured and compared to that perpendicular to the…
