A CH3CN and HCO+ survey towards southern methanol masers associated with star formation

C. R. Purcell, R. Balasubramanyam, M. G. Burton +32

We present the initial results of a 3-mm spectral line survey towards 83 methanol maser selected massive star-forming regions. Here we report observations of the J=5-4 and 6-5 rota…

Escape of a Uniform Random Walk from an Interval

T. Antal, S. Redner

We study the first-passage properties of a random walk in the unit interval in which the length of a single step is uniformly distributed over the finite range [-a,a]. For a of the…

Chiral phase transition and Anderson localization in the Instanton Liquid Model for QCD

Antonio M. Garcia-Garcia, James C. Osborn

We study the spectrum and eigenmodes of the QCD Dirac operator in a gauge background given by an Instanton Liquid Model (ILM) at temperatures around the chiral phase transition. Ge…

On The Structure of Competitive Societies

E. Ben-Naim, F. Vazquez, S. Redner

We model the dynamics of social structure by a simple interacting particle system. The social standing of an individual agent is represented by an integer-valued fitness that chang…

What is the most competitive sport?

E. Ben-Naim, F. Vazquez, S. Redner

We present an extensive statistical analysis of the results of all sports competitions in five major sports leagues in England and the United States. We characterize the parity amo…

Probability Densities in Strong Turbulence

Victor Yakhot

According to modern developments in turbulence theory, the "dissipation" scales (u.v. cut-offs) form a random field related to velocity increments . In this work we, usin…

High-Temperature Criticality in Strongly Constrained Quantum Systems

Claudio Castelnovo, Claudio Chamon, Christopher Mudry +2

The exotic nature of many strongly correlated materials at reasonably high temperatures, for instance cuprate superconductors in their normal state, has lead to the suggestion that…

Alignment of Rods and Partition of Integers

E. Ben-Naim, P. L. Krapivsky

We study dynamical ordering of rods. In this process, rod alignment via pairwise interactions competes with diffusive wiggling. Under strong diffusion, the system is disordered, bu…

Electronic Properties of Disordered Two-Dimensional Carbon

N. M. R. Peres, F. Guinea, A. H. Castro Neto

Two-dimensional carbon, or graphene, is a semi-metal that presents unusual low-energy electronic excitations described in terms of Dirac fermions. We analyze in a self-consistent w…

The Growth of Business Firms: Theoretical Framework and Empirical Evidence

Dongfeng Fu, Fabio Pammolli, S. V. Buldyrev +4

We introduce a model of proportional growth to explain the distribution of business firm growth rates. The model predicts that the distribution is exponential in the central part a…

On the spectral density of the wavelet coefficients of long memory time series with application to the log-regression estimation of the memory parameter

Eric Moulines, François Roueff, Murad Taqqu

In the recent years, methods to estimate the memory parameter using wavelet analysis have gained popularity in many areas of science. Despite its widespread use, a rigorous semi-pa…

Null energy condition and superluminal propagation

S. Dubovsky, T. Gregoire, A. Nicolis +1

We study whether a violation of the null energy condition necessarily implies the presence of instabilities. We prove that this is the case in a large class of situations, includin…

The Hole Argument for Covariant Theories

Mihaela Iftime, John Stachel

The hole argument was developed by Einstein in 1913 while he was searching for a relativistic theory of gravitation. Einstein used the language of coordinate systems and coordinate…

Flat Holonomies on Automata Networks

Gene Itkis, Leonid A. Levin

We consider asynchronous networks of identical finite (independent of network's size or topology) automata. Our automata drive any network from any initial configuration of states,…

Phonon Dispersion in Chiral Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes

Weihua Mu, Anthony Nickolas Vamivakas, Zhong-can Ou-Yang

The phonon dispersion of chiral single wall carbon nanotubes has been obtained from dyanimic matrix. The present manuscript is the extension of G. D. Mahan and Gun Sang…

Conductance quantization in mesoscopic graphene

N. M. R. Peres, A. H. Castro Neto, F. Guinea

Using a generalized Landauer approach we study the non-linear transport in mesoscopic graphene with zig-zag and armchair edges. We find that for clean systems, the low-bias low-tem…

First-principles Calculation of the Single Impurity Surface Kondo Resonance

Chiung-Yuan Lin, A. H. Castro Neto, B. A. Jones

We have performed first-principles calculation of the surface and bulk wavefunctions of the Cu(111) surface and their hybridization energies to a Co adatom, including the potential…

Electron-electron interactions and the phase diagram of a graphene bilayer

Johan Nilsson, A. H. Castro Neto, N. M. R. Peres +1

We study the effects of long and short-range electron-electron interactions in a graphene bilayer. Using a variational wavefunction technique we show that in the presence of long-r…

On the "canonical behaviour" of the X-ray afterglows of the Gamma Ray Bursts observed with Swift's XRT

Shlomo Dado, Arnon Dar, A. De Rujula

The "canonical behaviour" of the early X-ray afterglows of long-duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) --observed by the X-Ray Telescope of the SWIFT satellite-- is precisely the one pre…

The Detection of 3He+ in a Planetary Nebula Using the VLA

Dana S. Balser, W. M. Goss, T. M. Bania +1

We used the VLA to search for 3He+ emission from two Galactic planetary nebulae (PNe): NGC6572 and J320}. Standard stellar models predict that the 3He/H abundance ratios for PNe sh…
