Theory of two-dimensional macroscopic quantum tunneling in a Josephson junction coupled with an LC circuit

Shiro Kawabata, Takeo Kato, Thilo Bauch

We investigate classical thermal activation (TA) and macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) for a Josephson junction coupled with an LC circuit theoretically. The TA and MQT escape ra…

Towards a manifestly supersymmetric action for 11-dimensional supergravity

Martin Cederwall

We investigate the possibility of writing a manifestly supersymmetric action for 11-dimensional supergravity. The construction involves an explicit relation between the fields in t…

Finite energy shifts in SU(n) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on T^3xR at weak coupling

Fredrik Ohlsson

We consider a semi-classical treatment, in the regime of weak gauge coupling, of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in a space-time of the form T^3xR with SU(n)/Z_n gauge group and a…

Sums and differences of four k-th powers

Oscar Marmon

We prove an upper bound for the number of representations of a positive integer as the sum of four -th powers of integers of size at most , using a new version of the Det…

Patterns of Soft Masses from General Semi-Direct Gauge Mediation

Riccardo Argurio, Matteo Bertolini, Gabriele Ferretti +1

We give a general formulation of semi-direct gauge mediation of supersymmetry breaking where the messengers interact with the hidden sector only through a weakly gauged group. Usin…

Theory of superconductor-ferromagnet point contact spectra: the case of strong spin polarization

Roland Grein, Tomas Lofwander, Georgo Metalidis +1

We study the impact of spin-active scattering on Andreev spectra of point contacts between superconductors(SCs) and strongly spin-polarized ferromagnets(FMs) using recently derived…

Sample genealogies and genetic variation in populations of variable size

A. Eriksson, B. Mehlig, M. Rafajlovic +1

We consider neutral evolution of a large population subject to changes in its population size. For a population with a time-variable carrying capacity we have computed the distribu…

Automorphic properties of (2, 0) theory on T6

Mans Henningson

We consider ADE-type (2, 0) theory on a family of flat six-tori endowed with flat Sp(4) connections coupled to the R-symmetry. Our main objects of interest are the components of th…

O18O and C18O observations of rho Oph A

R. Liseau, B. Larsson, L. Pagani +3

Observations of the (N_J=1_1-1_0) ground state transition of O_2 with the Odin satellite resulted in a about 5 sigma detection toward the dense core rho Oph A. At the frequency of…
