Asymptotic degeneracy of dyonic N=4 string states and black hole entropy

G. L. Cardoso, B. de Wit, J. Käppeli +1

It is shown that the asymptotic growth of the microscopic degeneracy of BPS dyons in four-dimensional N=4 string theory captures the known corrections to the macroscopic entropy of…

Super-Chern-Simons Theory as Superstring Theory

P. A. Grassi, G. Policastro

Superstrings and topological strings with supermanifolds as target space play a central role in the recent developments in string theory. Nevertheless the rules for higher-genus co…

Ground states in relatively bounded quantum perturbations of classical lattice systems

D. A. Yarotsky

We consider ground states in relatively bounded quantum perturbations of classical lattice models. We prove general results about such perturbations (existence of the spectral gap,…

Measuring non-Gaussian fluctuations through incoherent Cooper pair current

Tero T. Heikkila, Pauli Virtanen, Goran Johansson +1

We study a Josephson junction (JJ) in the regime of incoherent Cooper pair tunneling, capacitively coupled to a nonequilibrium noise source. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristi…

The stellar mass function of galaxies to z ~ 5 in the Fors Deep and GOODS-S fields

N. Drory, M. Salvato, A. Gabasch +4

We present a measurement of the evolution of the stellar mass function (MF) of galaxies and the evolution of the total stellar mass density at 0<z<5. We use deep multicolor data in…

Mulit-Photon Events with Large Missing energy in e+e- collisions at sqrt(s)=192-209 GeV

The OPAL collaboration, G. Abbiendi

Events with a final state consisting of two or more photons and large missing transverse energy have been observed in e+e- collisions at centre-of-mass energies in the range 192 -…

The Linear Boltzmann Equation as the Low Density Limit of a Random Schrodinger Equation

David Eng, Laszlo Erdos

We study the evolution of a quantum particle interacting with a random potential in the low density limit (Boltzmann-Grad). The phase space density of the quantum evolution defined…

Geometric versus homotopy theoretic equivariant bordism

Bernhard Hanke

By results of Loeffler and Comezana, the Pontrjagin-Thom map from geometric G-equivariant bordism to homotopy theoretic equivariant bordism is injective for compact abelian G. If G…

Twisted WZW Branes from Twisted REA's

Jacek Pawelczyk, Harold Steinacker, Rafal R. Suszek

Quantum geometry of twisted Wess--Zumino--Witten branes is formulated in the framework of twisted Reflection Equation Algebras. It is demonstrated how the representation theory of…

High velocity features in the spectra of the Type Ia SN 1999ee: a property of the explosion or evidence of circumstellar interaction?

P. A. Mazzali, S. Benetti, M. Stehle +5

The near-maximum spectra of the Type Ia SN 1999ee are reviewed. Two narrow absorption features corresponding to the strongest component of the CaII IR triplet appear in the spectra…
