Quantum effects of stringy and membranic nature for the swimming of micro-organisms in a fluid

E. Elizalde, M. Kawamura, S. Nojiri +2

The static potential is investigated in string and membrane theories coupled to gauge fields (specifically, external magnetic fields) and with antisymmetric tensor fields. T…

Interaction of Low - Energy Induced Gravity with Quantized Matter -- II. Temperature effects

Guido Cognola, Ilya L. Shapiro

At the very early Universe the matter fields are described by the GUT models in curved space-time. At high energies these fields are asymptotically free and conformally coupled to…

Surface Region of Superfluid Helium as an Inhomogeneous Bose-Condensed Gas

A. Griffin, S. Stringari

We present arguments that the low density surface region of self-bounded superfluid He systems is an inhomogeneous dilute Bose gas, with almost all of the atoms occupying the s…

Lower Bound on the Pion Polarizability from QCD Sum Rules

M. Benmerrouche, G. Orlandini, T. G. Steele

Making use of QCD sum rules a lower bound is found which relates the electromagnetic polarizability and mean-square radius of charged pions through…

Dilatonic gravity near two dimensions as a string theory

E. Elizalde, S. D. Odintsov

Using the renormalization-group formalism, a sigma model of a special type- in which the metric and the dilaton depend explicitly on one of the string coordinates only-is investiga…

Structure of binary clusters: are icosahedra relevant ?

Stefano Cozzini, Marco Ronchetti

We investigate the structure of 13-particle clusters in binary alloys for various size ratios and different concentrations via MD simulation. Our goal is to predict which systems a…

Bosons in anisotropic traps: ground state and vortices

F. Dalfovo, S. Stringari

We solve the Gross-Pitaevskii equations for a dilute atomic gas in a magnetic trap, modeled by an anisotropic harmonic potential. We evaluate the wave function and the energy of th…

Hessling's Quantum Equivalence Principle and the Temperature of an Extremal Reissner-Nordström Black Hole

Valter Moretti

The Hessling improvement of the Haag, Narnhofer and Stein principle is analysed in the case of a massless scalar field propagating outside of an extremal R-N black hole. It is foun…

Radiation from the extremal black holes

Luciano Vanzo

The radiation from extreme Reissner-Nordström black holes is computed by explicitly considering the collapse of a spherical charged shell. No neutral scalar radiation is found but…

Moment of Inertia and Superfluidity of a Trapped Bose Gas

S. Stringari

The temperature dependence of the moment of inertia of a dilute Bose gas confined in a harmonic trap is determined. Deviations from the rigid value, due to the occurrence of Bose-E…

A Bisognano-Wichmann-like Theorem in a Certain Case of a Non Bifurcate Event Horizon related to an Extreme Reissner-Nordström Black Hole

Valter Moretti, Stefan Steidl

Thermal Wightman functions of a massless scalar field are studied within the framework of a ``near horizon'' static background model of an extremal R-N black hole. This model is bu…

Casimir energy of a massive field in a genus-1 surface

K. Kirsten, E. Elizalde

We review the definition of the Casimir energy steming naturally from the concept of functional determinant through the zeta function prescription. This is done by considering the…

Constraints on QCD Sum-rules from the Hölder Inequalities

M. Benmerrouche, G. Orlandini, T. G. Steele

A new technique based on Hölder's integral inequality is applied to QCD sum-rules to provide fundamental constraints on the sum-rule parameters. These constraints must be satisfied…

Thermal Wightman Functions and Renormalized Stress Tensors in the Rindler Wedge

Valter Moretti, Luciano Vanzo

The Wightman functions in the Rindler portion of Minkowski space-time are presented for any value of the temperature and for massless spin fields up to s=1 and the renormalized str…
