We present a semianalytic technique for determining the complex normal-mode frequencies of black holes. The method makes use of the WKB approximation, carried to third order beyond the eikonal ...

Probability distributions of the total transverse momenta (K⊥) of charged particles produced in hadronic jets in e+e− annihilations have been measured for center of mass energies in the range from 9.2 ...

The book collects a series of articles to review the advances that have been made in the field of gravitational collapse in general relativity and alternative theories of gravity in the past few years ...

Under a Lorentz-transformation, Mie's 1912 gravitational mass behaves identical as de Broglie's 1923 clock-like frequency. The same goes for Mie's inertial mass and de Broglie's wave-like frequency.

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 ...

In considering the mathematical problem of describing the geodesics on a torus or any other surface of revolution, there is a tremendous advantage in conceptual understanding that derives from taking ...

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 of the first edition): For the first time in the world literature, the theory of vacuum quantum effects in external electromagnetic and gravitational fields is ...

Twelve ground state transitions up to about 5 MeV have been observed by the resonant scattering of bremsstrahlung from natural barium. Six of the first seven lines are from 2+ states in Ba138 as ...

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 ...

Differential elastic cross-section ratios and absolute cross sections have been measured for C12,13 at 29.2-and 49.5-MeV average π− energy and for O16,18 at 29.2 MeV. Range telescopes detected the ...

We study N=∞ lattice gauge theory at finite temperature by Monte Carlo methods using an asymmetric coupling version of the twisted Equchi-Kawai model. The data favor a first-order deconfining ...
