The requirement that P and T be approximately conserved in the color gauge theory of strong interactions without arbitrary adjustment of parameters is analyzed. Several possibilities are identified, ...

We compute the four-loop ( O ( α ′ 4 )) metric β-function for the two-dimensional bosonic non-linear σ-model. We employ an indirect method which avoids a large part of the explicit calculation and as ...

We compute the electromagnetic fields generated in heavy-ion collisions by using the HIJING model. Although after averaging over many events only the magnetic field perpendicular to the reaction plane ...

The search for the decay μ + → e + e + e − with the SINDRUM spectrometer has been continued. The result is a new upper limit for the branching ratio B μ→3 e = Γ(μ→3 e ) Γ(μ→ e 2ν) < 1.0 × 10 −12 (90% ...

THE paradox of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen [1] was advanced as an argument that quantum mechanics could not be a complete theory but should be supplemented by additional variables. These additional ...

We consider the three-dimensional Dirac equation in spherical coordinates with coupling to static electromagnetic potential. The space components of the potential have angular (non-central) dependence ...

We have measured the infrared spectra of two carbonates, FeCO 3 -siderite and MnCO 3 -rhodochrosite to pressures of 50 GPa at 300 K, and taken X-ray diffraction patterns of these phases before and ...

The WIMP limit set by the Xenon10 experiment in 2007 signals a new era in direct detection of dark matter, with several large-scale liquid target detectors now under construction. A major challenge in ...

(Translated from the Russian abstract): The Einstein Collection 1977 opens with the correspondence between A. Einstein and M. Besso, part of which was published in the Einstein Collections 1974, ...

The study of neutrinos and their interaction with matter has made many important contributions to our present knowledge of physics. This advanced text introduces neutrino physics and presents a ...

This paper is concerned with the study of quasifree states of a linear, scalar quantum field in globally hyperbolic spacetimes possessing a one-parameter group of isometries with a bifurcate Killing ...
