Effective Field Theory for Quantum Liquid in Dwarf Stars

Gregory Gabadadze, Rachel A. Rosen

An effective field theory approach is used to describe quantum matter at greater-than-atomic but less-than-nuclear densities which are encountered in white dwarf stars. We focus on…

Multidimensional optical fractionation with holographic verification

Ke Xiao, David G. Grier

The trajectories of colloidal particles driven through a periodic potential energy landscape can become kinetically locked in to directions dictated by the landscape's symmetries.…

Evaporation of Microscopic Black Holes in String Theory and the Bound on Species

Gia Dvali, Dieter Lust

We address the question how string compactifications with D-branes are consistent with the black hole bound, which arises in any theory with number of particle species to which the…

The queue in the Halfin--Whitt regime

Josh Reed

In this paper, we study the queue in the Halfin--Whitt regime. Our first result is to obtain a deterministic fluid limit for the properly centered and scaled numb…

On AGT description of N=2 SCFT with N_f=4

Gaston Giribet

We consider Alday-Gaiotto-Tachikawa (AGT) realization of the Nekrasov partition function of N=2 SCFT. We focus our attention on the SU(2) theory with N_f=4 flavor symmetry, whose p…

Dark Matter Direct Detection with Non-Maxwellian Velocity Structure

M. Kuhlen, N. Weiner, J. Diemand +5

The velocity distribution function of dark matter particles is expected to show significant departures from a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. This can have profound effects on the…
