arXiv Highlights 1

Postado em arXiv em janeiro 28, 2010 por Leandro Alexandre

Dark Energy and Dark Matter. (arXiv:1001.5014v1 [hep-ph]): ”

A brief overview of our current understanding of abundance and properties of dark energy and dark matter is presented. A more focused discussion of supersymmetric dark matter follows. Included is a frequentist approach to the supersymmetric parameter space and consequences for the direct detection of dark matter.

Extra Dimensions at the LHC. (arXiv:1001.4801v1 [hep-ph]): ”

We discuss the motivation and the phenomenology of models with either flat or warped extra dimensions. We describe the typical mass spectrum and discovery signatures of such models at the LHC. We also review several proposed methods
for discriminating the usual low-energy supersymmetry from a model with flat (universal) extra dimensions. (For the official website of the book, see this http URL .)

Particle physics models of inflation and curvaton scenarios. (arXiv:1001.0993v2 [hep-ph] UPDATED): ”

We review the particle theory origin of inflation and curvaton mechanisms for generating large scale structures and the observed temperature anisotropy in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. Since inflaton or curvaton energy density creates all matter, it is important to understand the process of reheating and preheating into the relevant degrees of freedom required for the success of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We discuss two distinct classes of models, one where inflaton and curvaton belong to the hidden sector, which are coupled to the Standard Model gauge sector very weakly. There is another class of models of inflaton and curvaton, which are embedded within Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) gauge group and beyond, and whose origins lie within gauge invariant combinations of supersymmetric quarks and leptons. Their masses and couplings are all well motivated from low energy physics, therefore such models provide us with a unique opportunity that they can be verified/falsified by the CMB data and also by the future collider and
non-collider based experiments. We then briefly discuss stringy origin of inflation, alternative cosmological scenarios, and bouncing universes.

An Economic analogy to Electrodynamics. (arXiv:1001.1847v2 [physics.gen-ph] UPDATED): ”

In this note, we would like to find the laws of electrodynamics in simple economic systems. In this direction, we identify the chief economic variables and parameters, scalar and vector, which are amenable to be put directly into the crouch of the laws of electrodynamics, namely Maxwell’s equations. Moreover, we obtain Phillp’s curve, recession and Black-Scholes formula, as
sample applications.

Entanglement degradation in the solid state: interplay of adiabatic and quantum noise. (arXiv:1001.4875v1 [quant-ph]): ”

We study entanglement degradation of two non-interacting qubits subject to independent baths with broadband spectra typical of solid state nanodevices. We obtain the analytic form of the concurrence in the presence of adiabatic noise for classes of entangled initial states presently achievable in experiments. We find that adiabatic (low frequency) noise affects entanglement reduction analogously to pure dephasing noise. Due to quantum (high frequency) noise, entanglement is totally lost in a state-dependent finite time. The possibility
to implement on-chip both local and entangling operations is briefly discussed.

Novidades no BIP

Postado em comunicados em janeiro 23, 2010 por Leandro Alexandre

Essa semana estreiou no BIP duas novidades. Como estudo Física, tenho que sempre estar atento aos novos artigos (pre-prints) que pesquisadores publicam no arXiv. Então resolvi postar aqui os e-papers mais interessantes e menos técnicos que vou encontrando por lá. Por exemplo, publicarei por aqui links para artigos de revisão, notas de aula etc etc. Esses posts podem ser encontrados na tag “arXiv”.

Outra novidade é que semanalmente postarei aqui o resumo de postagens do BIP no Twitter. Por lá, costumo sempre colocar links de coisas que julgo interessante, a grande maioria relacionado à ciência. Esses posts podem ser encontrados na tag “twitter”. Pra quem quiser me seguir por lá também, o endereço é http://twitter.com/lasleandro.

Até a próxima!

A First Course on Twistors, Integrability and Gluon Scattering Amplitudes.

Postado em arXiv em janeiro 22, 2010 por Leandro Alexandre

A First Course on Twistors, Integrability and Gluon Scattering Amplitudes. (arXiv:1001.3871v1 [hep-th]): “

These notes accompany an introductory lecture course on the twistor approach to supersymmetric gauge theories aimed at early-stage PhD students. It was held by the author at the University of Cambridge during the Michaelmas term in 2009. The lectures assume a working knowledge of differential geometry and quantum field theory. No prior knowledge of twistor theory is required.

The Physical Properties of the Cosmic Acceleration

Postado em arXiv em janeiro 22, 2010 por Leandro Alexandre

The Physical Properties of the Cosmic Acceleration. (arXiv:1001.1811v2 [astro-ph.CO] CROSS LISTED): ”

The observed late-time acceleration of the cosmic expansion constitutes a fundamental problem in modern theoretical physics and cosmology. In an attempt to weight the validity of a large number of dark energy models, I use the recent measurements of the expansion rate of the Universe, the clustering of galaxies the CMB fluctuations as well as the large scale structure formation, to put tight constraints on the different models.

Theory of Heavy-Ion Collisions. (arXiv:1001.2452v1 [hep-ph])

Postado em arXiv em janeiro 21, 2010 por Leandro Alexandre

Theory of Heavy-Ion Collisions. (arXiv:1001.2452v1 [hep-ph]): ”

In high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions, a transient state of thermalized, hot and dense matter governed by Quantum Chromodynamics is produced. Properties of this state are reflected in the bulk low transverse momentum (P_T) hadron
production which represent the remnant of the collective medium as well as in modifications of so-called probes which are not part of the thermalized medium, i.e. jets generated in high P_T processes or leptons and photons which do not participate in the strong interaction. Theory effords aim at deducing the properties of QCD thermodynamics and collectivity from such observables.

Physics With Two Time Dimensions. (arXiv:1001.2485v1 [hep-th])

Postado em arXiv em janeiro 21, 2010 por Leandro Alexandre

Physics With Two Time Dimensions. (arXiv:1001.2485v1 [hep-th]):

We explore the properties of physical theories in space-times with two time dimensions. We show that the common arguments used to rule such theories out do not apply if the dynamics associated with the additional time dimension is thermal or chaotic and does not permit long-lived time-like excitations. We discuss several possible realizations of such theories, including holographic representations and the possibility that quantum dynamics emerges as a consequence of a second time dimension.
