Bounds on Extra Dimensions from Binary Pulsars
J. M. LoSecco
Evidence for gravitational radiation from binary pulsars places constraints on properties of ``large'' extra dimensions. The size of these extra dimensions must exceed about 37 AU…
Implementation of a quantum phase gate by the optical Kerr effect
S. Glancy, J. M. LoSecco, C. E. Tanner
We show that the optical Kerr effect can be used to construct a quantum phase gate. It is well known from quantum nondemolition techniques that, as two photon field modes pass thro…
Atmospheric Neutrinos: Past, Present and
John M. LoSecco
This paper reviews the history of the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. The historical record does not support more recent claims that the anomaly constitutes evidence for a neutrino m…
Possible Sources of a Transient Natural Neutrino Flux
J. M. LoSecco
Recent observations of variability in the ``atmospheric neutrino'' rate place constraints on possible explanations of the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. Many proposed solutions to t…
Bounds on Oscillations from Atmospheric Neutrinos
J. M. LoSecco
A reanalysis of identified muon neutrino interactions from IMB 3 yields bounds on and . The limit is in conflict with the recent anno…
What the Atmospheric Neutrino Anomaly is Not
J. M. LoSecco
The atmospheric neutrino anomaly is the apparent reduction of the ratio observed in underground detectors. It represents either a reduction in the muon neutrino interac…
