Abrupt Transition between Thermally-Activated Relaxation and Quantum Tunneling in a Molecular Magnet
K. M. Mertes, Y. Zhong, M. P. Sarachik +5
We report Hall sensor measurements of the magnetic relaxation of Mn acetate as a function of magnetic field applied along the easy axis of magnetization. Data taken at a ser…
Boundary conditions at a fluid - solid interface
Marek Cieplak, Joel Koplik, Jayanth R. Banavar
We study the boundary conditions at a fluid-solid interface using molecular dynamics simulations covering a broad range of fluid-solid interactions and fluid densities, and both si…
Transport of a Luttinger liquid in the presence of a time dependent impurity
D. Schmeltzer
We show that the macroscopic current and charge can be formulated as a Quantum Mechanical zero mode problem. We find that the current is given by the velocity operator of a particl…
Noncommutative Chern-Simons terms and the noncommutative vacuum
Alexios P. Polychronakos
It is pointed out that the space noncommutativity parameters in noncommutative gauge theory can be considered as a set of superselection parameters, in analogy with th…
Phase Transitions of Soluble Surfactants at a Liquid-Vapor Interface
M. S. Tomassone, A. Couzis, C. Maldarelli +2
Although medium chain length insoluble amphiphiles are well known to form gaseous and liquid expanded phases on an air/water interface, the situation for the soluble case is less c…
Quantum mechanics on the noncommutative plane and sphere
V. P. Nair, A. P. Polychronakos
We consider the quantum mechanics of a particle on a noncommutative plane. The case of a charged particle in a magnetic field (the Landau problem) with a harmonic oscillator potent…
Derivative expansion and gauge independence of the false vacuum decay rate in various gauges
D. Metaxas
In theories with radiative symmetry breaking, the calculation of the false vacuum decay rate requires the inclusion of higher-order terms in the derivative expansion of the effecti…
Analytic approach to the one-dimensional spin-Peierls system in the entire frequency range
Ping Sun, D. Schmeltzer, A. R. Bishop
We use the two cut-off renormalization group (RG) method to study the spin-Peierls model in one-dimension for the entire phonon frequency range. We integrate out the phonon and sol…
Tracer dispersion in two-dimensional rough fractures
German Drazer, Joel Koplik
Tracer diffusion and hydrodynamic dispersion in two-dimensional fractures with self-affine roughness is studied by analytic and numerical methods. Numerical simulations were perfor…
Embeddings of hypersurfaces in affine spaces
Vladimir Shpilrain, Jie-Tai Yu
In this paper, we address the following two general problems: given two algebraic varieties in , find out whether or not they are (1) isomorphic; (2) equivalent under an…
Shear-induced particle diffusivities from numerical simulations
M. Marchioro, A. Acrivos
Using Stokesian dynamics simulations, we examine the flow of a monodisperse, neutrally buoyant, homogeneous suspension of non-Brownian solid spheres in simple shear, starting from…
Elliptic flow in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 130 GeV
STAR Collaboration, K. H. Ackermann
Elliptic flow from nuclear collisions is a hadronic observable sensitive to the early stages of system evolution. We report first results on elliptic flow of charged particles at m…
Non-topological solitons as nucleation sites for cosmological phase transitions
D. Metaxas
I consider quantum field theories that admit charged non-topological solitons of the Q-ball type, and use the fact that in a first-order cosmological phase transition, below the cr…
Scaling of the magnetoconductivity of silicon MOSFET's: evidence for a quantum phase transition in two dimensions
S. A. Vitkalov, Hairong Zheng, K. M. Mertes +2
For a broad range of electron densities and temperatures , the in-plane magnetoconductivity of the two-dimensional system of electrons in silicon MOSFET's can be scaled onto…
Hall Coefficient of a Dilute 2D Electron System in Parallel Magnetic Field
S. A. Vitkalov, H. Zheng, K. M. Mertes +2
Measurements in magnetic fields applied at a small angle with respect to the 2D plane of the electrons of a low-density silicon MOSFET indicate that the Hall coefficient is indepen…
Metal-Insulator Transitions in Interacting Disordered Systems
Myriam P. Sarachik
A brief review of metal-insulator transitions in three-dimensional doped semiconductors, with emphasis on the "critical exponent puzzle"; and new experimental findings that signal…
Quantum Mechanics on a Noncommutative Brane in M(atrix) Theory
V. P. Nair
We consider the quantum mechanics of a particle on a noncommutative two-sphere with the coordinates obeying an SU(2)-algebra. The momentum operator can be constructed in terms of a…
Implications of SU(2) symmetry on the dynamics of population difference in the two-component atomic vapor
A. B. Kuklov, Joseph L. Birman
We present an exact many body solution for the dynamics of the population difference induced by an rf-field in the two-component atomic cloud characterized by equal scatt…
Theory of Coexistence of Superconductivity and Ferroelectricity : A Dynamical Symmetry Model
Joseph L. Birman, Meir Weger
We propose and investigate a model for the coexistence of Superconductivity (SC) and Ferroelectricity (FE) based on the dynamical symmetries for the pseudo-spin SC sector,…
Molecular dynamics of flows in the Knudsen regime
Marek Cieplak, Joel Koplik, Jayanth R. Banavar
Novel technological applications often involve fluid flows in the Knudsen regime in which the mean free path is comparable to the system size. We use molecular dynamics simulations…
Manifest covariance and the Hamiltonian approach to mass gap in (2+1)-dimensional Yang-Mills theory
D. Karabali, C. Kim, V. P. Nair
In earlier work we have given a Hamiltonian analysis of Yang-Mills theory in (2+1) dimensions showing how a mass gap could arise. In this paper, generalizing and covariantizing fro…
Orthogonality catastrophe and decoherence of a confined Bose-Einstein condensate at finite temperature
A. B. Kuklov, J. L. Birman
We discuss mechanisms of decoherence of a confined Bose-Einstein condensate at finite temperatures under the explicit condition of conservation of the total number of bosons in…

The permeability of two-dimensional fractures with self-affine fractal roughness is studied via analytic arguments and numerical simulations. The limit where the roughness amplitud…
Net Charge on a Noble Gas Atom Adsorbed on a Metallic Surface
A. Widom, M. S. Tomassone, Y. N. Srivastava +1
Adsorbed noble gas atoms donate (on the average) a fraction of an electronic charge to the substrate metal. The effect has been experimentally observed as an adsorptive change in t…
