We use the flat space limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence to derive a simple relation between the 2 --> 2 scattering amplitude of massless string states in type IIB superstring theory on ten-dimensional Minkowski space and a scaling limit of the N = 4 supe ...
We explore the constraining power of OPE associativity in 4D conformal field theory with a continuous global symmetry group. We give a general analysis of crossing symmetry constraints in the 4-point function , where phi is ...
The highest exclusive jet multiplicity studied at LEP experiments is five. In this paper we compute the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to e(+)e(-) annihilation to five jets, essentially closing the (pure) perturbative QCD studies of exclusive jetty ...
We consider the Regge limit of a CFT correlation function of two vector and two scalar operators, as appropriate to study small-x deep inelastic scattering in N = 4 SYM or in QCD assuming approximate conformal symmetry. After clarifying the nature of the R ...
Density functional approximations fail to provide an accurate treatment of weak interactions. More recent, but not readily available functionals can lead to significant improvements. A simple alternative to correct for the missing weak interactions is to a ...
In this paper, we propose to derive an analytical model for the doped symmetric double-gate (DG) MOSFET that is valid in all regions of operation. We show that doping the silicon channel can be converted in an equivalent silicon thickness and threshold vol ...
We perform a general study of the issue of metastability for supersymmetry-breaking vacua in theories with N=1 and N=2 global supersymmetry. This problem turns out to capture all the important qualitative features of the corresponding question in theories ...
We derive constraints on the sign of couplings in an effective Higgs Lagrangian using prime principles such as the naturalness principle, global symmetries, and unitarity. Specifically, we study four dimension-six operators, O-H, O-y, O-g, and O-gamma, whi ...
We discuss leptogenesis within a TeV-scale inverse seesaw model for neutrino masses where the seesaw structure is guaranteed by an SO(10) symmetry. Contrary to the TeV-scale type-I gauged seesaw, the constraints imposed by successful leptogenesis in these ...
Many extensions of the Standard Model (SM) predict new neutral vector bosons at energies accessible by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We study an extension of the SM with new chiral fermions subject to non-trivial anomaly cancellations. If the new fermio ...
