Symmetry, Conserved Charges, and Lax Representations of Nonlinear Field Equations: A Unified Approach

 

C. J. Papachristou

Full text: Acrobat PDF (129 KB)

 

A certain non-Noetherian connection between symmetry and integrability properties of nonlinear field equations in conservation-law form is studied. It is shown that the symmetry condition alone may lead, in a rather straightforward way, to the construction of a Lax pair, a doubly infinite set of (generally nonlocal) conservation laws, and a recursion operator for symmetries. Applications include the chiral field equation and the self-dual Yang-Mills equation.

Electroweak Standard Model at Finite Temperature in Presence of A Bosonic Chemical Potential

 

Pena and C. Quimbay

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (168 KB)

 

We study the electroweak standard model at finite temperature in presence of a bosonic chemical potential associated with the conserved electromagnetic current. To preserve the thermodynamic equilibrium of the system, the thermal medium is neutralized by the introduction of four background charges related to the four gauge bosons of this model. Using the mean-field approximation, in the high temperature limit, we find that there exists a difference between the effective mass of the spatial and temporal components of the W boson. A W boson condensation induced via the background charges allows to vanish this difference.

Electric Dipole Moment and Neutrino Mixing due to Planck Scale Effects

 

Bipin Singh Koranga

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (97 KB)

 

In this paper, we consider the effect of Planck scale operators on electric dipole moment of the electron $de$. The electric dipole moment of the electron, $de$ is known to vanish up to three loops in the standard model with massless neutrinos We consider the Planck scale operator on neutrino mixing. We assume that the neutrino masses and mixing arise through physics at a scale intermediate between Planck scale and the electroweak breaking scale. We also assume, that just above the electroweak breaking scale neutrino mass are nearly degenerate and the mixing is bi-maximal. Quantum gravity (Planck scale) effects lead to an effective SU(2)_{L} U(1) invariant dimension-5 Lagrangian symmetry involving Standard Model. On electroweak symmetry breaking, this operator gives rise to correction to the neutrino masses and mixings these additional terms can be considered as perturbation to the bimaximal neutrino mass matrix We assume that the gravitational interaction is flavour blind and we study the neutrino mixing and electric dipole moment due to the Planck scale effects.

Spinless Relativistic Particle in the Presence of A Minimal Length

 

M. Merad, F. Zeroual, and H. Benzair

Full text: Acrobat PDF (151 KB)

 

In this paper, we propose to study the (1+1)-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation in the presence of a minimal length by two approaches: a method direct in the position space representation and a path integral formalism in energy-momentum space, where a particle is subjected to a mixing of \ linear vector plus scalar potentials. For a first method, a suitable approximation technique of a non-relativistic quantum mechanics has been applied and the shifts of the relativistic energy levels is determined. For a second method, the Green function is obtained, the energy spectrum together with the normalized wave functions of the bound states are deduced \ and the limiting case is considered. The results of both methods are compared and we find the same dominant quantities to order 1 on parameter of deformation.

Astrophysical Chaotic Gun Effect

 

Gheorghe Dumitrescu

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (185 KB)

We propose a kinetic equation for a special kind of acceleration: chaotic gun effect. Then we infer a distribution function which can depict the instability condition. With this distribution function we derive the power spectrum of the synchrotron emission and we prove the power law form of the power spectrum. We show that the spectral index of the emission spectrum is related to the spectral index of the number of the charged particles in the beam. Our numeric simulations show that the spectrum has a break at a frequency threshold where the chaotic acceleration becomes efficient. Assuming this threshold to the set on of the efficient chaotic gun effect we estimate the magnetic strength .Our paper advocates an electromagnetic process able to accelerate charged particles to high energies starting from low energies. Assuming the high-energy particles spectra of Mkn 501 to be produced by the synchrotron emission during chaotic gun effect we estimate some parameters of the source.

Full text: Acrobat PDF (114 KB)

 

We present analytic evidence that the distribution of hadron masses follows from the universal transition to chaos in non-equilibrium field theory. It is shown that meson and baryon spectra obey a scaling hierarchy with critical exponents ordered in natural progression. Numerical predictions are found to be in close agreement with experimental data.

Towards The Determination of Properties of the Unconventional Josephson Junction Made by Putting Non-Superconducting Strip on the Top of Superconducting Strip

 

Krzysztof Pomorski and Przemyslaw Prokopow

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (1,652 KB)

 

We present the theoretical approach to study the unconventional Josephson junction (uJJ) made by putting the non-superconducting strip on the top of superconducting strip. We work in the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau, Bogoliubov de Gennes and Usadel equations. Then we solve the non-linear partial differential equations numerically for few simple cases. We review the similarities and new aspects of uJJ with currently known Josephson junctions. Basing on the obtained results and current knowledge on Josephson junctions we point the future perspectives of the research on uJJs.

A generalization of the Three-Dimensional Harmonic Oscillator Basis for Wave Functions with Non-Gaussian Asymptotic Behavior

 

Maurizio De Sanctis

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (102 KB)

 

Starting from the standard harmonic oscillator basis, we construct new sets of orthonormal wave functions  with non-Gaussian asymptotic spatial dependence. These new wave functions can be used to study at numerical level two-body bound systems like mesons and baryons within quark-diquark models. Generalized hyperradial functions for three-quark models are also studied.

Full text: Acrobat PDF (113 KB)

 

 

Generation of exactly solvable quantum systems in non-relativistic quantum mechanics from an already analytically solved quantum system is presented using extended transformation method. The bound state quantized energy spectra and the corresponding wavefunctions of the generated potentials are obtained. It is also shown that eigenfunctions of the new quantum systems can easily be normalized.

On the Bound-State Spectrum of A Nonrelativistic Particle in the Background of A Short-Ranged Linear Potential

 

L.B. Castro and A.S. de Castro

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (118 KB)

 

 

The nonrelativistic problem of a particle immersed in a triangular potential well, set forth by N. A. Rao and B. A. Kagali, is revised. It is shown that these researchers misunderstood the full meaning of the potential and obtained a wrong quantization condition. By exploring the space inversion symmetry, this work presents the correct solution to this problem with potential applications in electronics in a simple and transparent way.

We obtain transformation equations for the Bell basis states under an arbitrary Lorentz boost and compute the expectation values of the relativistic center of mass spin operator under each of these boosted states. We also obtain expectation values for spin projections along the axes.

Statistical Mechanics of Classical N-Particle System of  Galaxies in the Expanding Universe

 

Farooq Ahmad and Abdul Wahid

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (101 KB)

 

For the distribution of classical non-interacting particles we use Maxwell-Boltzmann's statistics. However, this statistics is not workable for classical interacting particles (galaxies). We attempt to modify the Maxwell-Boltzmann's statistics by incorporating gravitational interaction term in it. The number of ways in which N-particles can have pair interaction due to gravitational interaction is obtained. With the help of entropy maximization we derive the analytical expression for occupation number. Using the modified statistics we obtain the general expressions for different thermodynamical quantities and attempt to derive general distribution function for gravitating particles (galaxies).

Using an approach of modified Euler-Lagrange field equations obtained from an invariant action under infinitesimal modified general coordinates, local Lorentz and U_{\ast }(1) gauge transformations together with the corresponding Seiberg-Witten maps of the dynamical fields, a generalized Dirac equation in the presence of a constant electric field and a noncommutative cosmological anisotropic Bianchi I universe is derived and the particles pair creation process is studied.

Cylindrically Symmetric Inhomogeneous String Cosmological Models of Perfect Fluid Distribution with Electromagnetic Fields

 

Anirudh Pradhan and Rekha Singh

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (139 KB)

 

Two new cylindrically symmetric inhomogeneous string cosmological models are investigated in presence of magnetic field. We have assumed that F_{12} is the only non-vanishing component of electromagnetic field tensor F_{ij}. The Maxwell's equations show that F_{12} is the function of $x$ alone whereas the magnetic permeability \bar{\mu} is the function of x and t both. To get the deterministic solution, it has been assumed that the metric coefficients are separable in the form as A = f(x) \ell(t), B = g(x) k(t), C = g(x) \nu(t). Also, the Einstein field equations have been solved with string source in which magnetic field is absent. Some physical and geometric aspects of the models in presence and absence of magnetic field are discussed.

Full text: Acrobat PDF (98 KB)

 

Some LRS Bianchi type-II string- dust cosmological models are investigated in which the expansion (\theta) is assumed to be proportional to the shear (\sigma). To obtain exact solutions, the Einstein's field equations have been solved for two cases (i) Reddy string and (ii) Nambu string. The physical and geometrical behaviour of these models are discussed.

Relativistic Particle Motion and Radiation Reaction in Electrodynamics

 

Richard T. Hammond

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (423 KB)

 

The problem of radiation reaction and the self force is the oldest unsolved mystery in physics. At times it is considered a minor issue, a malefactor born of classical electrodynamics, while at other times it is public enemy number one, a major inconsistency and unsolved problem. This work derives some of the basic and most important results while reviewing some of the other known approaches to the problem. Some historical notes are given, and yet another approach is discussed that accounts for radiation reaction without the unphysical behavior that plagues so many theories.

Leonardo Chiatti

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (186 KB)

 

A review is presented of the fundamental equations of point, perfect incompressible fluid and wave dynamics in the Fantappie-Arcidiacono theory of projective relativity, also known as ``De Sitter relativity''. Compared to the original works, some deductions have been simplified and the physical meaning of the equations has been analyzed in greater depth.

Geodesics of Deformed Relativity in Five Dimensions

 

Fabio Cardone, Alessio Marrani and Roberto Mignani

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (471 KB)

 

In a previous paper, we discussed the Killing symmetries of the Kaluza-Klein-like scheme known as Deformed Relativity in five dimensions (DR5), based on a five-dimensional Riemannian space \mathcal{\Re }_{5} in which the four-dimensional space-time metric is deformed ({i.e.} it depends on the energy) and energy plays the role of the fifth dimension. In the present paper, we carry on the investigation of the main mathematical aspects of DR5 by studying the geodesic motions in \mathcal{\Re }_{5}. In particular, we consider the case of physical relevance in which the metric coefficients are power functions of the energy (Power Ansatz). The geodesic equations are solved explicitly for all the twelve 5-d. metrics obtained as solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations, and in particular for those describing the four fundamental interactions. It is also shown that it is possible, from the geodesic motion related to one of these Power-Ansatz solutions, to get a time-energy uncertainty relation of the Heisenberg type.

Theory of Dirac Equation without Negative Energie

 

E. Trubenbacher

 

Full text: Acrobat PDF (205 KB)

 

It is shown that the well-known Hermitean operator 'sign of frequency' for the free Dirac equation has the physical meaning of 'sign of charge'. Since the kinetic energy of a free particle should not depend on its charge state, this identification requires a modification of the traditional quantum mechanical 4-momentum operators when used with Dirac spinors. Due to the new 4-momentum operators the Dirac equation has no negative energy solutions\textbf{ }and the complex of problems associated with the latter disappears from the theory. The quantum number 'sign of charge' rigorously defines electronic and positronic plane waves. Second quantization of the free Dirac equation does not need the traditional amendments required by the negative energy values. As an example for the application of the theory the relativistic hydrogen ground state wave function is analyzed with respect to the quantum number 'sign of charge'. Since the operator 'sign of charge' does not commute with the Coulomb potential the wave function is only an approximate eigenfunction of  the operator 'sign of charge'. It is shown how one can construct 'effective potentials' that commute with the operator 'sign of charge' and thus are able to produce eigenfunctions of charge when used in the Dirac equation.
