Long-time-scale revivals in ion traps

H. Moya-Cessa, A. Vidiella-Barranco, J. A. Roversi +2

In this contribution we investigate the interaction of a single ion in a trap with laser beams. Our approach, based on unitary transformating the Hamiltonian, allows its exact diag…

Effects of magnetohydrodynamics matter density fluctuations on the solar neutrino resonant spin-flavor precession

N. Reggiani, M. M. Guzzo, J. H. Colonia +1

Taking into account the stringent limits from helioseismology observations on possible matter density fluctuations described by magnetohydrodynamics theory, we find the correspondi…

On the propagation speed of evanescent modes

A. Pablo, L. Barbero, Hugo E. Hernandez F. +1

The group-velocity of evanescent waves (in undersized waveguides, for instance) was theoretically predicted, and has been experimentally verified, to be Superluminal (v_g > c). By…

On the gravitational field of static and stationary axial symmetric bodies with multi-polar structure

Patricio S. Letelier

We give a physical interpretation to the multi-polar Erez-Rozen-Quevedo solution of the Einstein Equations in terms of bars. We find that each multi-pole correspond to the Newtonia…

Enhanced Diffusion and the Continuous Spontaneous Localization Model

L. F. Santos, C. O. Escobar

We find an analogy between turbulence and the dynamics of the continuous spontaneous localization model (CSL) of the wave function. The use of a standard white noise in the localiz…

Leading particle effect, inelasticity and the connection between average multiplicities in {\bf } and {\bf } processes

M. Batista, R. J. M. Covolan

The Regge-Mueller formalism is used to describe the inclusive spectrum of the proton in collisions. From such a description the energy dependences of both average inelasticit…

On maximal curves in characteristic two

Miriam Abdon, Fernando Torres

The genus g of an F_{q^2}-maximal curve satisfies g=g_1:=q(q-1)/2 or g\le g_2:= [(q-1)^2/4]. Previously, such curves with g=g_1 or g=g_2, q odd, have been characterized up to isomo…

Type-II Supernovae and Neutrino Magnetic Moment

H. Nunokawa, R. Tomas, J. W. F. Valle

The present solar and atmospheric neutrino data together with the LSND results and the presence of hot dark matter (HDM) suggest the existence of a sterile neutrino at the eV scale…

Separation-Sensitive Collision Detection for Convex Objects

Jeff Erickson, Leonidas J. Guibas, Jorge Stolfi +1

We develop a class of new kinetic data structures for collision detection between moving convex polytopes; the performance of these structures is sensitive to the separation of the…

On Superluminal motions in photon and particle tunnelings

J. Jakiel, V. S. Olkhovsky, Erasmo Recami

It is shown that the Hartman-Fletcher effect is valid for all the known expressions of the mean tunnelling time, in various nonrelativistic approaches, for the case of finite width…

Field Purification in the intensity-dependent Jaynes-Cummings model

D. S. Freitas, A. Vidiella-Barranco, J. A. Roversi

We have found that, in the intensity-dependent Jaynes-Cummings model, a field initially prepared in a statistical mixture of two coherent states, and , evolves toward a…

Differential dispersion relations with an arbitrary number of subtractions: a recursive approach

M. J. Menon, A. E. Motter, B. M. Pimentel

Making use of a recursive approach, derivative dispersion relations are generalized for an arbitrary number of subtractions. The results for both cross even and odd amplitudes are…

Differential dispersion relations and elementary amplitudes in a multiple diffraction model

A. F. Martini, M. J. Menon, J. T. S. Paes +1

We discuss the evaluation of the real part of the elementary amplitudes in the context of a multiple diffraction model for elastic scattering earlier developed. The framework…

Current Status of the Resonant Spin-Flavor Precession Solution to the Solar Neutrino Problem

M. M. Guzzo, H. Nunokawa

We discuss the current status of the resonant spin-flavor precession (RSFP) solution to the solar neutrino problem. We perform a fit to all the latest solar neutrino data for vario…

Relativistic and Newtonian core-shell models: analytical and numerical results

Werner M. Vieira, Patricio S. Letelier

We make a detailed analysis of Newtonian as well as relativistic core-shell models recently proposed to describe a black hole or neutron star surrounded by shells of matter, and in…

Atmospheric neutrino observations and flavor changing interactions

M. C. Gonzalez-Garcia, M. M. Guzzo, P. I. Krastev +5

Flavor changing (FC) neutrino-matter interactions can account for the zenith-angle dependent deficit of atmospheric neutrinos observed in the SuperKamiokande experiment, without di…

Hidden spin-current conservation in 2d Fermi liquids

Paulo F. Farinas, Kevin S. Bedell, Nelson Studart

We report the existence of regimes of the two dimensional Fermi liquid that show unusual conservation of the spin current and may be tuned by varying some parameter like the densit…
