Quantum states of elementary three-geometry

G. Carbone, M. Carfora, A. Marzuoli

We introduce a quantum volume operator in three--dimensional Quantum Gravity by taking into account a symmetrical coupling scheme of three SU(2) angular momenta. The spectrum o…

A Hydrodynamic model for a dynamical jammed-to-flowing transition in gravity driven granular media

Lyderic Bocquet, Jalal Errami, Tom. C. Lubensky

Granular material on an inclined plane will flow like a fluid if the angle the plane makes with the horizontal is large enough. We employ a modification of a hydrodynamic model…

Nishimori point in random-bond Ising and Potts models in 2D

A. Honecker, J. L. Jacobsen, M. Picco +1

We study the universality class of the fixed points of the 2D random bond q-state Potts model by means of numerical transfer matrix methods. In particular, we determine the critica…

A Model of Sequence Dependent Protein Diffusion Along Dna

Maria Barbi, Christophe Place, Vladislav Popkov +1

We introduce a probabilistic model for protein sliding motion along DNA during the search of a target sequence. The model accounts for possible effects due to sequence-dependent in…

Intermittency and non-Gaussian fluctuations of the global energy transfer in fully developed turbulence

B. Portelli, P. C. W. Holdsworth, J. -F. Pinton

We address the experimentally observed non-Gaussian fluctuations for the energy injected into a closed turbulent flow at fixed Reynolds number. We propose that the power fluctuatio…

The Galactic disk mass-budget : II. Brown dwarf mass-function and density

G. Chabrier

In this paper, we extend the calculations conducted previously in the stellar regime to determine the brown dwarf IMF in the Galactic disk. We perform Monte Carlo calculations taki…

Evolutionary models for low-mass stars and brown dwarfs: uncertainties and limits at very young ages

I. Baraffe, G. Chabrier, F. Allard +1

We analyse pre-Main Sequence evolutionary tracks for low mass stars with masses $m \le 1.4 \msol$ based on the Baraffe et al. (1998) input physics. We also extend the recent Chabri…

Site-centered impurities in quantum spin chains

P. Pujol, J. Rech

The magnetic behavior of antiferromagnetic spin 1/2 chains with site-centered impurities in a magnetic field is investigated. The effect of impurities is implemented by considering…

Partial Supersymmetry Breaking and AdS4 Supermembrane

F. Delduc, E. Ivanov, S. Krivonos

We consider partial spontaneous breaking of N=1 AdS4 supersymmetry OSp(1|4) down to N=1, d=3 Poincare supersymmetry in the nonlinear realizations framework. We construct the corres…

Superfield Noether Procedure

M. Magro, I. Sachs, S. Wolf

We develop a superspace Noether procedure for supersymmetric field theories in 4-dimensions for which an off-shell formulation in ordinary superspace exists. In this way we obtain…

A unified equation of state of dense matter and neutron star structure

F. Douchin, P. Haensel

An equation of state (EOS) of neutron star matter, describing both the neutron star crust and the liquid core, is calculated. It is based on the effective nuclear interaction SLy o…

Nonequilibrium dynamics and fluctuation-dissipation relation in a sheared fluid

Ludovic Berthier, Jean-Louis Barrat

The nonequilibrium dynamics of a binary Lennard-Jones mixture in a simple shear flow is investigated by means of molecular dynamics simulations. The range of temperature investigat…

Effective Temperatures of late L dwarfs and the onset of Methane signatures

Andreas Schweitzer, John E. Gizis, Peter H. Hauschildt +3

We present a spectral analysis of a sample of late L dwarfs. We use our latest model atmospheres and synthetic spectra and optical and K band spectra to determine effective tempera…

Universal Fluctuations of the Danube Water Level: a Link with Turbulence, Criticality and Company Growth

Steven. T. Bramwell, Tom Fennell, Peter C. W. Holdsworth +1

A global quantity, regardless of its precise nature, will often fluctuate according to a Gaussian limit distribution. However, in highly correlated systems, other limit distributio…
