Maxwell Electromagnetic Theory, Planck's Radiation Law and Bose-Einstein Statistics
H. M. França, A. Maia, C. P. Malta
We give an example in which it is possible to understand quantum statistics using classical concepts. This is done by studying the interaction of charged matter oscillators with th…
Maxwell and Dirac theories as an already unified theory
J. Vaz, W. A. Rodrigues
In this paper we formulate Maxwell and Dirac theories as an already unified theory (in the sense of Misner and Wheeler). We introduce Dirac spinors as "Dirac square root" of the Fa…
Superspace Effective Actions for 4D Compactifications of Heterotic and Type II Superstrings
Nathan Berkovits, Warren Siegel
Two-dimensional sigma models are defined for the new manifestly spacetime supersymmetric description of four-dimensional compactified superstrings. The resulting target-superspace…
Micro--universes and ``strong black holes'': a purely geometric approach to elementary particles
E. Recami, F. Raciti, W. A. Rodrigues +1
We present here a panoramic view of our unified, bi--scale theory of gravitational and strong interactions [which is mathematically analogous to the last version of N.Rosen's bi--m…
On the Phenomenology of Tachyon Radiation
Ron Folman, Erasmo Recami
We present a brief overview of the different kinds of electromagnetic radiations expected to come from (or to be induced by) space-like sources (tachyons). New domains of radiation…
More About Tunnelling Times, the Dwell Time, and the ``Hartman Effect"
V. S. Olkhovsky, E. Recami, F. Raciti +1
In a recent review paper [{\em Phys. Reports} {\bf 214} (1992) 339] we proposed, within conventional quantum mechanics, new definitions for the sub-barrier tunnelling and reflectio…
Diffractive Contribution to the Elasticity and the Nucleonic Flux in the Atmosphere
J. Bellandi, R. J. M. Covolan, A. L. Godoi +1
We calculate the average elasticity considering non-diffractive and single diffractive interactions and perform an analysis of the cosmic-ray flux by means of an analytical solutio…
A remark on the tau-neutrino mass limit
M. M. Guzzo, O. L. P. Peres, V. Pleitez +1
We point out that the usual experimental upper bounds on the ``tau-neutrino mass'' do not apply if neutrino mixing is considered. The suppression of the population of the tau decay…
Loop Variables for a Class of Conical Spacetimes
Valdir B. Bezerra, Patricio S. Letelier
Loop variables are used to describe the presence of topological defects in spacetime. In particular we study the dependence of the holonomy transformation on angular momentum and t…
Spacetime Defects: Torsion Loops
Patricio S. Letelier
Spacetimes with everywhere vanishing curvature tensor, but with torsion different from zero only on world sheets that represent closed loops in ordinary space are presented, also d…
Bubbles and Wormholes: Analytic Models
Anzhong Wang, Patricio S. Letelier
The first junction conditions of spherically symmetric bubbles are solved for some cases, and whereby analytic models to the Einstein field equations are constructed. The effects o…
Dynamic wormholes and Energy Conditions
Anzhong Wang, Patricio S. Letelier
A class of exact solutions of the Einstein field equations representing non-static wormholes that obey the {\em weak and dominant energy conditions } is presented. Hence, in princi…
THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF --FLUIDS AND THE QUANTUM VACCUM
J. A. S. Lima, A. Maia
The thermodynamic behaviour of a relativistic perfect simple fluid obeying the equation of state , where is a constant, has been investigated. Particular c…
Super-Poincare Invariant Superstring Field Theory
Nathan Berkovits
Using the topological techniques developed in an earlier paper with Vafa, a field theory action is constructed for any open string with critical N=2 worldsheet superconformal invar…
Theoretical Study of Cubic Structures Based on Fullerene Carbon Clusters: CC and (C
Linda M. Zeger, Yu-Min Juan, Efthimios Kaxiras +1
We study a new hypothetical form of solid carbon \csc, with a unit cell which is composed of the \cs \ fullerene cluster and an additional single carbon atom arranged in the zincbl…
The Classical and Quantum Theory of Relativistic p-Branes without Constraints
Matej Pavsic
It is shown that a relativistic (i.e. a Poincar{\' e} invariant) theory of extended objects (called p-branes) is not necessarily invariant under reparametrizations of corresponding…
