We continue the study of model-independent constraints on the unitary conformal field theories (CFTs) in four dimensions, initiated in [R. Rattazzi, V. S. Rychkov, E. Tonni, and A. Vichi, J. High Energy Phys. 12 (2008) 031]. Our main result is an improved ...
In theories with a large number N of particle species, black hole physics imposes an upper bound on the mass of the species equal to M-Planck/root N. This bound suggests a novel solution to the hierarchy problem in which there are N approximate to 10(32) g ...
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 ...
We introduce a multi-domain Fourier-continuation/WENO hybrid method (FC-WENO) that enables high-order and non-oscillatory solution of systems of nonlinear conservation laws, and which enjoys essentially dispersionless, spectral character away from disconti ...
A new Room Temperature (RT) 0-level vacuum package is demonstrated in this work, using amorphous silicon (aSi) as sacrificial layer and SiO2 as structural layer. The process is compatible with most of MEMS resonators and Resonant Suspended-Gate MOSFET [1] ...
In this paper we first discuss the analysis regarding the role of Lorentz symmetry in the perturbative non-gravitational anomalies for a family of fermions, which has been recently perfomed in arXiv: 0809.0184. The theory is assumed to be translational inv ...
The precise analog of the theta-quantization ambiguity of Yang-Mills theory exists for the real SU(2) connection formulation of general relativity. As in the former case theta labels representations of large gauge transformations, which are super-selection ...
For an InAsquantum well which is modulation-doped with Mn we measure directly and simultaneously the magnetization and magnetic anisotropy of, both, the two dimensional hole system (2DHS) and Mn dopants. Using highly sensitive micromechanical torque magnet ...
Due to the limited pumping capacity in lowland water systems, reduction of system failure requires anticipation of extreme precipitation events. This can be done by Model Predictive Control that optimizes an objective function over a certain time horizon, ...
In this paper, we propose an efficient method to estimate the radar cross section (RCS) mean and variance of a 2-D cylinder with random holes. This model has been applied extensively in microwave engineering, e.g., frequency selective surface (FSS). Firstl ...
