Five years of searches for point sources of astrophysical neutrinos with the AMANDA-II neutrino telescope

A. Achterberg

We report the results of a five-year survey of the northern sky to search for point sources of high energy neutrinos. The search was performed on the data collected with the AMANDA…

Ultraviolet Sensitivity in Higher Dimensions

D. Hoover, C. P. Burgess

We calculate the first three Gilkey-DeWitt (heat-kernel) coefficients, a0, a1 and a2, for massive particles having the spins of most physical interest in n dimensions, including th…

UV Sensitivity in Supersymmetric Large Extra Dimensions: The Ricci-flat Case

C. P. Burgess, D. Hoover

We examine the ultraviolet (UV)-sensitive part of the one-loop Casimir energy which is induced when various higher-dimensional supergravities are compactified to 4D on extra dimens…

Warped Reheating in Brane-Antibrane Inflation

N. Barnaby, C. P. Burgess, J. M. Cline

We examine how reheating occurs after brane-antibrane inflation in warped geometries, such as those which have recently been considered for Type IIB string vacua. We adopt the stan…

Quintessentially Flat Scalar Potentials

C. P. Burgess, P. Grenier, D. Hoover

Both inflationary and quintessence cosmologies require scalar fields which roll very slowly over cosmological time scales, and so typically demand extremely flat potentials. Suffic…

Instabilities and Particle Production in S-Brane Geometries

C. P. Burgess, P. Martineau, F. Quevedo +2

We study the classical stability of a class of S-brane geometries having cosmological horizons. By considering the perturbations of the metric in these geometries we establish that…
