In this paper two things are done. First, we propose a simple model of dynamical gauge-mediated SUSY breaking. This model incorporates a dynamical relaxation mechanism which solves the mu-problem with no light fields beyond those of the MSSM. In the second ...
This paper presents an extension of the generalized multipole technique (GMT) for 2D anisotropic scatterers. New expansions similar to the Bessel multipole expansion are derived for arbitrary anisotropic media. Numerical simulations prove the accuracy and ...
Land-atmosphere interactions play a central role in the mesoscale evolution of hydrologic fields like rainfall and soil moisture. A water balance model, capturing the essence of such interaction and driven by mesoscale and synoptic processes, was found to ...
The Quench of Long Length (QUELL) experiments have been completed. The US contribution was to develop and implement both conventional and novel techniques in quench detection. The results of the quench detection experiments demonstrate that all US systems ...
Using a model structure consisting of a network of corner sharing tetrahedra, we calculate the infrared spectrum of amorphous SiO2 within a first-principles approach and find good agreement with experiment both for the positions and the intensities of the ...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A technique to manufacture a stable, reproducible three-dimensional optical phantom is presented. This phantom reproduces the tissue's optical properties as well as the geometry and, to some extent, the mechanical properties of th ...
Recently, local probes used in optical experiments added a new dimension to the study of the optical properties of small particles lying on a surface. Until now, several theoretical frameworks, developed to understand the interaction of optical fields with ...
We investigated the interdiffusion of InGaAs/InP quantum wells (QWs) due to rapid thermal annealing (RTA) by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and wedge transmission electron microscopy (WTEM). After RTA at temperatures between 650 and 900 degrees C (ann ...
We investigated the optical properties of excitons in quasi-one-dimensional semiconductor quantum structures by photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation: High-quality GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs heterostructures were grown using low-pressure organometallic c ...
CO molecules in a supersonic molecular beam are resonantly excited from the X 1SIGMA+, upsilon" = 0 ground state to the a 3PI, upsilon' = 0 metastable state using pulsed laser radiation at 206 nm. In the excitation region a static electric field is applied ...
