No-scale D=5 supergravity from Scherk-Schwarz reduction of D=6 theories
2004
We perform a generalized dimensional reduction of six dimensional supergravity theories to five dimensions. We consider the minimal $(2,0)$ and the maximal $(4,4)$ theories. In each case the reduction allows us to obtain gauged supergravities of no-scale type in dimension five with gauge groups that escape previous classifications. In the minimal case, the geometric data of the reduced theory correspond to particular cases of the D=5 real special geometry. In the maximal case we find a four parameter solution which allows partial breaking of supersymmetry.
AdS$_3$ solutions with exceptional supersymmetry
2018
Among the possible superalgebras that contain the AdS$_3$ isometries, two interesting possibilities are the exceptional $F(4)$ and $G(3)$. Their R-symmetry is respectively SO(7) and $G_2$, and the amount of supersymmetry ${\cal N}=8$ and ${\cal N}=7$. We find that there exist two (locally) unique solutions in type IIA supergravity that realize these superalgebras, and we provide their analytic expressions. In both cases, the internal space is obtained by a round six-sphere fibred over an interval, with an O8-plane at one end. The R-symmetry is the symmetry group of the sphere; in the $G(3)$ case, it is broken to $G_2$ by fluxes. We also find several numerical ${\cal N}=1$ solutions with $G_…
Combinatorial Models in the Topological Classification of Singularities of Mappings
2018
The topological classification of finitely determined map germs \(f:(\mathbb R^n,0)\rightarrow (\mathbb R^p,0)\) is discrete (by a theorem due to R. Thom), hence we want to obtain combinatorial models which codify all the topological information of the map germ f. According to Fukuda’s work, the topology of such germs is determined by the link, which is obtained by taking the intersection of the image of f with a small enough sphere centered at the origin. If \(f^{-1}(0)=\{0\}\), then the link is a topologically stable map \(\gamma :S^{n-1}\rightarrow S^{p-1}\) (or stable if (n, p) are nice dimensions) and f is topologically equivalent to the cone of \(\gamma \). When \(f^{-1}(0)\ne \{0\}\)…
Star orbits in metal clusters
1993
A possibility that classical five-point star orbits play a dominant role for shell structures of large metal clusters is investigated quantum mechanically. With a soft Woods-Saxon spherical potential a signature of the five-point star orbit is found in the level densities. Quantum numbers of degenerate levels in the soft Woods-Saxon potential differ by 2 and 5 in radial nodes and angular momenta, respectively. Unlike the experimental observation the peaks in the mass spectrum are not equally spaced as a function of N 1/3 . The self-consistent jellium model does not reproduce the degeneracy associated with the five-point star orbits. It is demonstrated that by covering high-density metal clu…
Black hole accretion discs and jets at super-Eddington luminosity
2005
Super-Eddington accretion discs with 3 and 15 dot M_E around black holes with mass 10 M_sun are examined by two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamical calculations extending from the inner disc edge to 5*10^4 r_g and lasting up to \sim 10^6 r_g/c. The dominant radiation-pressure force in the inner region of the disc accelerates the gas vertically to the disc plane, and jets with 0.2 -- 0.4$c$ are formed along the rotational axis. In the case of the lower accretion rate, the initially anisotropic high-velocity jet expands outward and becomes gradually isotropic flow in the distant region. The mass-outflow rate from the outer boundary is as large as \sim 10^{19} -- 10^{23} g s^{-1}, but it is v…
Symmetries and Effective Vertices
2015
When facing the computation of more realistic processes, the calculations can become lengthy very fast as the number of Feynman diagrams grows. Before starting the calculation process the problem should be reduced to its minimal form. Here we will present an example of how to reduce the number of calculated diagrams for a given process (which in this case will be a Higgs-like scalar decay to two photons through a charged scalar loop) using gauge symmetry.
Positioning in a flat two-dimensional space-time
2008
The basic theory on relativistic positioning systems in a two-dimensional space-time and the analysis of the possibility of making relativistic gravimetry with these systems have been presented elsewhere [Phys. Rev. D 73 , 084017 (2006); Phys. Rev. D 74 , 104003 (2006)]. Here we summarize these results and we outline new issues on the relativistic positioning systems in Minkowski plane. We point out that the accelerations of the emitters and of the user along their trajectories are determined by the sole knowledge of the emitter positioning data and of the acceleration of only one of the emitters and only during a light echo interval.
Mass Accretion Impacts in Classical T Tauri Stars: A Multi-disciplinary Approach
2019
Accretion of matter is a process that plays a central role in the physics of young stellar objects. The analysis of the structure by which matter settles on the star can unveil key information about the process of star formation by providing details on mass accretion rates, stellar magnetic field configurations, possible effects of accretion on the stellar coronal activity, etc. Here we review some of the achievements obtained by our group by exploiting a multi-disciplinary approach based on the analysis of multi-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations, multi-wavelength observations, and laboratory experiments of accretion impacts occurring onto the surface of classical T Tauri stars (C…

A useful connection between two-loop massive vacuum integrals and one-loop off-shell triangle diagrams with massless internal particles is established for arbitrary values of the space-time dimension {ital n}. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
Does interferometry probe thermalization?
2009
We carry out a systematic study of interferometry radii in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions within a two-dimensional transport model. We compute the transverse radii R_o and R_s as a function of p_t for various values of the Knudsen number, which measures the degree of thermalization in the system. They converge to the hydrodynamical limit much more slowly (by a factor 3) than elliptic flow. This solves most of the HBT puzzle for central collisions: R_o/R_s is in the range 1.1-1.2 for realistic values of the Knudsen number, much closer to experimental data ($\simeq 1$) than the value 1.5 from hydrodynamical calculations. The p_t dependence of R_o and R_s, which is usually said to refl…
