Preliminary Limits on the WIMP-Nucleon Cross Section from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS)
DS Akerib, PD Barnes, DA Bauer +28
We are conducting an experiment to search for WIMPs, or weakly-interacting massive particles, in the galactic halo using terrestrial detectors. This generic class of hypothetical p…
On the p-affine surface area
Mathieu Meyer, Elisabeth Werner
We give geometric interpretations of certain affine invariants of convex bodies. The affine invariants are the p-affine surface areas introduced by Lutwak. The geometric interpreta…
Halpha Velocity Mapping of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies
Chris Mihos, Greg Bothun
We use imaging Fabry-Perot observations to explore the dynamical conditions in four southern ultraluminous (L_IR > 10^12 L_sun) infrared galaxies. These galaxies all show morpholog…
Dirichlet Topological Defects
Sean M. Carroll, Mark Trodden
We propose a class of field theories featuring solitonic solutions in which topological defects can end when they intersect other defects of equal or higher dimensionality. Such co…
Cosmic Strings, Zero Modes and SUSY breaking in Nonabelian N=1 Gauge Theories
Stephen C. Davis, Anne C. Davis, Mark Trodden
We investigate the microphysics of cosmic strings in Nonabelian gauge theories with N=1 supersymmetry. We give the vortex solutions in a specific example and demonstrate that fermi…
A pair of optimal inequalities related to the error function
M. Beth Ruskai, Elisabeth Werner
The Error Function \begin{eqnarray} V(x) & \equiv & \sqrtπ e^{x^2} [1 - \hbox{erf}(x)] \\ & = & \int_0^\infty \frac{ e^{-u} }{\sqrt{x^2 + u}} du = 2 e^{x^2}\int_x^\infty e^{-t^2} d…
