Measuring chaos in string scattering processes

Massimo Bianchi, Maurizio Firrotta, Jacob Sonnenschein +1

We analyze the amplitudes of one highly excited string (HES) state with two or three tachyons in open bosonic string theory. We argue that these processes are chaotic by showing th…

Euler fluid in 2+1 dimensions as a gauge theory, and an action for the Euler fluid in any dimension

Horatiu Nastase, Jacob Sonnenschein

In this paper we parallel the construction of Tong of a gauge theory for shallow water, by writing a gauge theory for the Euler fluid in 2+1 dimensions. We then extend it to an Eul…

Deterministic Chaos vs Integrable Models

Stefano Negro, Fedor K. Popov, Jacob Sonnenschein

In this work we present analytical and numerical evidences that classical integrable models possessing infinitely many degrees of freedom unexpectedly exhibit some features that ar…

CSBIon -- a charged soliton of the 3-dimensional CS + BI Abelian gauge theory

Horatiu Nastase, Jacob Sonnenschein

In this paper, we construct a charged soliton with a finite energy and no delta function source in a pure Abelian gauge theory. Specifically, we first consider the 3-dimensional Ab…

Measure for chaotic scattering amplitudes

Massimo Bianchi, Maurizio Firrotta, Jacob Sonnenschein +1

We propose a novel measure of chaotic scattering amplitudes. It takes the form of a log-normal distribution function for the ratios of (consecutive) spacings…

A perfect fluid hydrodynamic picture of domain wall velocities at strong coupling

Romuald A. Janik, Matti Jarvinen, Hesam Soltanpanahi +1

We show that for a range of strongly coupled theories with a first order phase transition, the domain wall or bubble velocity can be expressed in a simple way in terms of a perfect…
