Quantization of a string with attached mass
A. Lewis Licht
A simple model of a relativistic open string with a point mass attached at one end is quantized. The normal modes are derived and used to construct expressions for the operator com…
The Gauged Unparticle Action
A. Lewis Licht
We show that the unparticle action that is made gauge invariant by the inclusion of an open Wilson line factor can be transformed into the integral-differential operator action tha…
Wilson Line Integrals in the Unparticle Action
A. Lewis Licht
We consider the unparticle action that is made gauge invariant by inclusion of an open Wilson line factor. In deriving vertexes from such an action it has been customary to use a f…
The Mandelstam-Terning Line Integral in Unparticle Physics -- A Reply to Galloway, Martin and Stancato
A. Lewis Licht
We show that the path ordered Wilson line integral used in 0802.0313 to make a nonlocal action gauge invariant is mathematically inconsistent. We also show that it can lead to reas…
Gauge Fields and Unparticles
A. Lewis Licht
We show that a rigorous path integral method of introducing gauge fields in the UnParticle lagrangian leads to somewhat different and more complicated vertexes than those currently…
Operator Coupling of Gauge Fields and Unparticles
A. Lewis Licht
We show that it is possible to couple gauge fields to unparticles without the use of path integrals in the unparticle effective action. This is done by treating the unparticle fiel…
