Real symplectic formulation of local special geometry
2006
We consider a formulation of local special geometry in terms of Darboux special coordinates $P^I=(p^i,q_i)$, $I=1,...,2n$. A general formula for the metric is obtained which is manifestly $\mathbf{Sp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$ covariant. Unlike the rigid case the metric is not given by the Hessian of the real function $S(P)$ which is the Legendre transform of the imaginary part of the holomorphic prepotential. Rather it is given by an expression that contains $S$, its Hessian and the conjugate momenta $S_I=\frac{\partial S}{\partial P^I}$. Only in the one-dimensional case ($n=1$) is the real (two-dimensional) metric proportional to the Hessian with an appropriate conformal factor.
Analytical Solutions for the Self- and Mutual Inductances of Concentric Coplanar Disk Coils
2013
In this paper, closed-form solutions are presented for the self- and mutual inductances of disk coils which lie concentrically in a plane. The solutions are given as generalized hypergeometric functions which are closely related to elliptic integrals. The method used is a Legendre polynomial expansion of the inductance integral, which renders all integrations straightforward. Excellent numerical agreement with previous studies is obtained. An asymptotic formula for the approach to the ring coil limit is also derived and numerically validated. The methods presented here can be applied to noncoaxial and noncoplanar cases.
Experimental study of $\eta$ meson photoproduction reaction at MAMI
2015
New data for the differential cross sections, polarization observables $T$, $F$, and $E$ in the reaction of $\eta$ photoproduction on proton from the threshold up to a center-of-mass energy of W=1.9 GeV are presented. The data were obtained with the Crystal-Ball/TAPS detector setup at the Glasgow tagged photon facility of the Mainz Microtron MAMI. The polarization measurements were made using a frozen-spin butanol target and circularly polarized photon beam. The results are compared to existing experimental data and different PWA predictions. The data solve a long-standing problem related the angular dependence of older $T$ data close to threshold. The unexpected relative phase motion betwe…
