Scarring in a driven system with wave chaos

A. L. Virovlyansky, G. M. Zaslavsky

We consider acoustic wave propagation in a model of a deep ocean acoustic waveguide with a periodic range-dependence. Formally, the wave field is described by the Schrodinger equat…

Galaxy Bias and Halo-Occupation Numbers from Large-Scale Clustering

Emiliano Sefusatti, Roman Scoccimarro

We show that current surveys have at least as much signal to noise in higher-order statistics as in the power spectrum at weakly nonlinear scales. We discuss how one can use this i…

Search for Point Sources of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays Above 40 EeV Using a Maximum Likelihood Ratio Test

s Eye Collaboration, G. R. Farrar

We present the results of a search for cosmic ray point sources at energies above 40 EeV in the combined data sets recorded by the AGASA and HiRes stereo experiments. The analysis…

On Theta Dependence of Glueballs from AdS/CFT

Gregory Gabadadze, Alberto Iglesias

We study the theta dependence of the glueball spectrum in a strongly coupled cousin of large N gluodynamics defined via the AdS/CFT correspondence. By explicitly diagonalizing the…

Introductory physics: The new scholasticism

Sanjoy Mahajan, David W. Hogg

Most introductory physics textbooks neglect air resistance in situations where an astute student can observe that it dominates the dynamics. We give examples from many books. Using…

The Linear Boltzmann Equation as the Low Density Limit of a Random Schrodinger Equation

David Eng, Laszlo Erdos

We study the evolution of a quantum particle interacting with a random potential in the low density limit (Boltzmann-Grad). The phase space density of the quantum evolution defined…
