Interstellar nanodiamonds: the carriers of mid-infrared emission bands?

A. P. Jones, L. d'Hendecourt

In this paper we pursue the natural consequences of the structure of nanodiamonds and their surface relaxation and reconstruction to surfaces exhibiting sp2 carbon atoms. We show t…

Invisible Axions and Large-Radius Compactifications

Keith R. Dienes, Emilian Dudas, Tony Gherghetta

We study some of the novel effects that arise when the QCD axion is placed in the ``bulk'' of large extra spacetime dimensions. First, we find that the mass of the axion can become…

Determination of s(x) and \bar{s}(x) from a global QCD analysis

F. Zomer

A new global QCD analysis of DIS data is presented. The νFe and \barνFe differential cross-section data are included to constrain the strange component of the nucleon sea. As a res…

Calibration and First light of the Diabolo photometer at the Millimetre and Infrared Testa Grigia Observatory

A. Benoit, F. Zagury, N. Coron +26

We have designed and built a large-throughput dual channel photometer, Diabolo. This photometer is dedicated to the observation of millimetre continuum diffuse sources, and in part…

New Structure Function Results at Low x and High Q^2 from HERA

Zhiqing Zhang

A precise proton structure function F_2 at low x is measured. The data is interpreted in the framework of QCD with an extraction of gluon density xg. The charm contribution to F_2…

Multiscaling of energy correlations in the random-bond Potts model

Jesper Lykke Jacobsen

We numerically calculate the exponent for the disorder averaged and fixed-sample decay of the energy-energy correlator in the q-state random-bond Potts model. Our results are in go…

Neutron scattering study of the field-induced soliton lattice in CuGeO

H. M. Ronnow, M. Enderle, D. F. McMorrow +7

CuGeO undergoes a transition from a spin-Peierls phase to an incommensurate phase at a critical field of T. In the high-field phase a lattice of solitons form…

Remark on the rational functions having the same Julia set

Tien-Cuong DINH

Let f and g two rational functions having the same Julia set J_f. Lets suppose that f has a rational indifferent periodic point and that the critical set of f is disjoint of J_f. T…

Radiative leptonic decays of B mesons in QCD

Gregory P. Korchemsky, Dan Pirjol, Tung-Mow Yan

We compute the form factors parametrizing radiative leptonic decays of heavy mesons B^+\toγe^+νfor photon energies much larger than Λ_{QCD}, where perturbative QCD methods for excl…

Lectures on graded differential algebras and noncommutative geometry

Michel Dubois-Violette

These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with…

Finite-volume analysis of N_f-induced chiral phase transitions

Sebastien Descotes, Jan Stern

In the framework of Euclidean QCD on a torus, we study the spectrum of the Dirac operator through inverse moments of its eigenvalues, averaged over topological sets of gluonic conf…

Pressure and Maxwell Tensor in a Coulomb Fluid

B. Jancovici

The pressure in a classical Coulomb fluid at equilibrium is obtained from the Maxwell tensor at some point inside the fluid, by a suitable statistical average. For fluids in an Euc…

Quantitative investigation of the mean-field scenario for the structural glass transition from a schematic mode-coupling analysis of experimental data

V. Krakoviack, C. Alba-Simionesco

A quantitative application to real supercooled liquids of the mean-field scenario for the glass transition () is proposed. This scenario, based on an analogy with spin-glass m…

Dynamics of the Local Moment Induced by Nonmagnetic Defects in Cuprates

W. A. MacFarlane, J. Bobroff, H. Alloul +4

We present a study of the spin dynamics of magnetic defects induced by Li substitution of the plane Cu in the normal state of YBaCuO. The fluctuations of the couple…

Pionium lifetime and ππscattering lengths in generalized chiral perurbation theory

H. Sazdjian

The relationship between the pionium lifetime and the scattering lengths is established, including the sizable electromagnetic corrections. The bound state formalism that is u…

Soft High Energy Scattering in Nonperturbative QCD

E. R. Berger

In this report diffractive high energy reactions are discussed in a functional integral approach where hadronic amplitudes are calculated from vacuum expectation values of lightlik…

Persistence exponents of non-Gaussian processes in statistical mechanics

O. Deloubriere, H. J. Hilhorst

Motivated by certain problems of statistical physics we consider a stationary stochastic process in which deterministic evolution is interrupted at random times by upward jumps of…

Analyzing Fragmentation of Simple Fluids with Percolation Theory

X. Campi, H. Krivine, E. Plagnol +1

We show that the size distributions of fragments created by high energy nuclear collisions are remarkably well reproduced within the framework of a parameter free percolation model…

String theory predictions for future accelerators

E. Dudas, J. Mourad

We consider, in a string theory framework, physical processes of phenomenological interest in models with a low string scale. The amplitudes we study involve tree-level virtual gra…

M. -H. Julien, T. Feher, M. Horvatic +5

Doping the high-Tc superconductor YBa2Cu3O6.7 with 1.5 % of non-magnetic Zn impurities in CuO2 planes is shown to produce a considerable broadening of 63Cu NMR spectra, as well as…
