Updated determination of chiral couplings and vacuum condensates from hadronic tau decay data
2016
We analyze the lowest spectral moments of the left-right two-point correlation function, using all known short-distance constraints and the recently updated ALEPH V-A spectral function from tau decays. This information is used to determine the low-energy couplings L10 and C87 of chiral perturbation theory and the lowest-dimensional contributions to the Operator Product Expansion of the left-right correlator. A detailed statistical analysis is implemented to assess the theoretical uncertainties, including violations of quark-hadron duality.
Implications of tau data for CP violation in K decays
2019
The \bm{D=6}đ=6 contribution of the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) of the \bm{\mathrm{VV-AA}}VVâAA correlator of quark currents can be related to hadronic matrix elements associated to CP violation in non-leptonic kaon decays. We use those relations to find an updated value for \bm{\langle(\pi\pi)_{I=2}|\mathcal{Q}_{8}|K\rangle}â¨(đđ)đ=2|đŹ8|đ⊠in the chiral limit using the updated ALEPH spectral function. Taking instead values of the matrix elements from the lattice to obtain the \bm{D=6}đ=6 vacuum elements provides a new short-distance constraint that allows for an inclusive determination of \bm{f_{\pi}}đđ and an updated value for the \bm{D=8}đ=8 condensate.
The parameterisation of the atmospheric aerosol optical depth using the Ă ngstrĂśm power law
1998
Abstract We have analysed the ability of the Angstrom power law to model the spectral aerosol optical depth, ĎaÎť, for the 400â670 nm band, obtained from spectral direct irradiance measurements at normal incidence. The spectra were registered at ground level in Valencia, Spain, using a Li-cor 1800 spectroradiometer. The results obtained showed that the fitting method that introduces lower errors in the determination of the Angstrom power law coefficients is to adjust directly the spectral experimental data. In this way the errors obtained for the turbidity coefficient, β, were about 0.004 and for the wavelength exponent, Îą, 0.07. The correlation coefficient was always greater than 0.95. ThesâŚ
Clustering effects inCr48composite nuclei produced via theMg24+Mg24reaction
2016
The nuclear properties of $^{48}\mathrm{Cr}$ composite $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-like nuclei produced at 60 MeV of excitation energy via the $^{24}\mathrm{Mg}+^{24}\mathrm{Mg}$ reaction were investigated. This excitation energy corresponds to a resonance with a narrow width (170 keV) observed in the elastic and inelastic channels, which was interpreted as a highly deformed state. To gain insight on the deformation of this state exclusive measurements of light charged particles were carried out with $8\ensuremath{\pi}\mathrm{LP}$ apparatus at Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro and compared to statistical model predictions. The measured of $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-particle energy spectra, $\ensuremath{âŚ
Excitation levels and magic numbers of small parahydrogen clusters (N⊽40)
2008
The excitation energies of parahydrogen clusters have been systematically calculated by the diffusion Monte Carlo technique in steps of one molecule from 3 to 40 molecules. These clusters possess a very rich spectra, with angular momentum excitations arriving up to L=13 for the heavier ones. No regular pattern can be guessed in terms of the angular momenta and the size of the cluster. Clusters with N=13 and 36 are characterized by a peak in the chemical potential and a large energy gap of the first excited level, which indicate the magical character of these clusters. From the calculated excitation energies the partition function has been obtained, thus allowing for an estimate of thermal eâŚ
Expressions of Effective Hamiltonian Parameters of XY4 Molecules in the Tetrahedral Formalism
1998
We have derived expressions of second-order effective Hamiltonian parameters of XY4 molecules in the tetrahedral formalism (1992, J. P. Champion et al., "Spectroscopy of the Earth's Atmosphere and Interstellar Medium: Spherical Top Spectra," Academic Press, San Diego). They are written as a function of the force constants of the potential expanded in terms of the dimensionless normal coordinates. These expressions can be used in the isolated band scheme as well as in the polyad one. The ambiguity of the effective Hamiltonian parameters is treated. Relations between the parameters for q2 and q4 terms and Hecht's anharmonicity constants (1960, K. T. Hecht, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 5, 355-389) in thâŚ
Isotropic extragalactic flux from dark matter annihilations: lessons from interacting dark matter scenarios
2016
The extragalactic gamma-ray and neutrino emission may have a contribution from dark matter (DM) annihilations. In the case of discrepancies between observations and standard predictions, one could infer the DM pair annihilation cross section into cosmic rays by studying the shape of the energy spectrum. So far all analyses of the extragalactic DM signal have assumed the standard cosmological model (LambdaCDM) as the underlying theory. However, there are alternative DM scenarios where the number of low-mass objects is significantly suppressed. Therefore the characteristics of the gamma-ray and neutrino emission in these models may differ from LambdaCDM as a result. Here we show that the extrâŚ
A nonlinear eigenvalue problem for the periodic scalar p-Laplacian
2014
We study a parametric nonlinear periodic problem driven by the scalar $p$-Laplacian. We show that if $\hat \lambda_1 >0$ is the first eigenvalue of the periodic scalar $p$-Laplacian and $\lambda> \hat \lambda_1$, then the problem has at least three nontrivial solutions one positive, one negative and the third nodal. Our approach is variational together with suitable truncation, perturbation and comparison techniques.
Line Identification of Atomic and Ionic Spectra of Holmium in the Near-UV. II. Spectra of Ho ii and Ho iii
2017
Fourier Transform spectra of holmium (Ho) in the UV spectral range from 31,530 to 25,000 cmâ1 (317 to 400 nm) have been investigated, particularly focusing on the ionic lines. The distinction between the different degrees of ionization (I, II, and III) is based on differences in signal-to-noise ratios from two Ho spectra, which have been measured with different buffer gases, i.e., neon and argon. Based on 106 known Ho ii and 126 known Ho iii energy levels, 97 lines could be classified as transitions of singly ionized Ho and 9 lines could be classified as transitions of doubly ionized Ho. Of the 97 Ho ii lines, 6 have not been listed in the extant literature. Another 215 lines have been assiâŚ
HIGH-RESOLUTION FOURIER TRANSFORM SPECTROSCOPY OF Nb i IN THE NEAR-INFRARED
2015
In this study, a Fourier Transform spectrum of Niobium (Nb) is investigated in the near-infrared spectral range from 6000 to 12,000 cmâ1 (830â1660 nm). The Nb spectrum is produced using a hollow cathode discharge lamp in an argon atmosphere. Both Nb and Ar spectral lines are visible in the spectrum. A total of 110 spectral lines are assigned to the element Nb. Of these lines, 90 could be classified as transitions between known levels of atomic Nb. From these classified Nb i transitions, 27 have not been listed in literature previously. Additionally, 8 lines are classified for the first time.
