2006 Whole Earth Telescope Observations of GD358: A New Look at the Prototype DBV

J. L. Provencal, M. H. Montgomery, A. Kanaan +53

We report on the analysis of 436.1 hrs of nearly continuous high-speed photometry on the pulsating DB white dwarf GD358 acquired with the Whole Earth Telescope (WET) during the 200…

Schlesinger transformations for algebraic Painleve VI solutions

Raimundas Vidunas, Alexander V. Kitaev

Various Schlesinger transformations can be combined with a direct pull-back of a hypergeometric 2x2 system to obtain -pullback transformations to isomonodromic 2x2 Fuchsian…

Canonically quantized soliton in the bound state approach to heavy baryons in the Skyrme model

V. Regelskis, E. Norvaisas

The bound state extension of Skyrme's topological soliton model for the heavy baryons is quantized canonically in arbitrary reducible representations of the SU(3) flavor group. The…

Radiation-hydrodynamics simulations of surface convection in low-mass stars: connections to stellar structure and asteroseismology

Hans-G. Ludwig, Elisabetta Caffau, Arunas Kucinskas

Radiation-hydrodynamical simulations of surface convection in low-mass stars can be exploited to derive estimates of i) the efficiency of the convective energy transport in the ste…

Geometric potentials in quantum optics: A semi-classical interpretation

Marc Cheneau, Steffen Patrick Rath, Tarik Yefsah +3

We propose a semi-classical interpretation of the geometric scalar and vector potentials that arise due to Berry's phase when an atom moves slowly in a light field. Starting from t…

Heavy hadron spectroscopy and the bag model

Andrius Bernotas, Vytautas Šimonis

Some time ago a slightly improved variant of bag model (the modified bag model) suitable for the unified description of light and heavy hadrons was developed. The main goal of the…
