The first direct measurement of gravitational waves by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations has opened up new avenues to explore our Universe. This white paper outlines the challenges and gains expected ...

The reaction e + e − → e + e − γ ∗ γ ∗ → e + e − hadrons for quasi-real photons is studied using data from s =183 GeV up to 202 GeV. Results on the total cross sections σ( e + e − → e + e − hadrons ) ...

Four-point correlation functions are calculated for the basic operators in 2D conformal invariant theories with the central charge of the corresponding Virasoro algebra C ≤1. Based on these results, ...

Fission cross section ratios of 233U, 238U, 232Th, 239Pu, 237Np, natural Pb and 209Bi to 235U have been measured in a wide energy range of incident neutrons from 1 MeV to 200 MeV using a ...

Bifurcations in Bosonic Stars: chains and rings from spherical solutions ...

Using the data on deep inelastic muon scattering on iron and deuterium the ratio of the nucleon structure functions F 2 N ( Fe )/ F 2 N ( D ) is presented. The observed x -dependence of this ratio is ...

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 propose new mechanisms for understanding neutrino masses in superstring models that contain E6-singlet zero-mass fields after compactification. We show that the low-energy gauge group of these ...

Formulae for the line-of-sight and transverse comoving distances, proper motion distance, angular diameter distance, luminosity distance, k-correction, distance modulus, comoving volume, lookback time ...

We have searched for the lepton-flavor-violating decay D0→e±μ∓ in 204 pb−1 of e+e− annihilation data at Ec.m.=29 GeV from the Mark II detector. No candidates were found; we estimate an upper limit on ...

Supersymmetry is a remarkable subject that has fascinated particle physicists since it was originally introduced. Although supersymmetry is no longer a new idea, we still do not know in what form, if ...
