Doubly special relativity and translation invariance

S. Mignemi

We propose a new interpretation of doubly special relativity (DSR) based on the distinction between the momentum and the translation generators in its phase space realization. We a…

Instability of hyper-compact Kerr-like objects

Vitor Cardoso, Paolo Pani, Mariano Cadoni +1

Viable alternatives to astrophysical black holes include hyper-compact objects without horizon, such as gravastars, boson stars, wormholes and superspinars. The authors have recent…

Near-horizon limit of the charged BTZ black hole and AdS_2 quantum gravity

Mariano Cadoni, Mohammad R. Setare

We show that the 3D charged Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli (BTZ) black hole solution interpolates between two different 2D AdS spacetimes: a near-extremal, near-horizon AdS_2 geometry…

Analytical predictions of non-Gaussian distribution parameters for stellar plasmas

A. M. Scarfone, P. Quarati, G. Mezzorani +1

Stimulated by the recent debate on the physical relevance and on the predictivity of q-Gaussian formalism, we present specific analytical expressions for the parameters characteriz…

Sivers Effect for Pion and Kaon Production in Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering

M. Anselmino, M. Boglione, U. D'Alesio +5

We study the Sivers effect in the transverse single spin asymmetries (SSA) for pion and kaon production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) processes. We perform a…

Geometry of plane sections of the infinite regular skew polyhedron {4,6|4}

Roberto De Leo, Ivan A. Dynnikov

The asymptotic behavior of open plane sections of triply periodic surfaces is dictated, for an open dense set of plane directions, by an integer second homology class of the three-…
