Quintessence and Supergravity
In the context of quintessence, the concept of tracking solutions allows to address the fine-tuning and coincidence problems. When the field is on tracks today, one has $Q\approx m_{\rm Pl}$ demonstrating that, generically, any realistic model of quintessence must be based on supergravity. We construct the most simple ...

CLASS B1152+199 and B1359+154: Two New Gravitational Lens Systems Discovered in the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey
The third phase of the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS) has recently been completed, bringing the total number of sources imaged to over 15000 in the CLASS and JVAS combined survey. In the VLA observations carried out in March and April of 1998, two new candidate lensed systems were discovered: CLASS B1152+199 and B1...

Number-conserving cellular automaton rules
A necessary and sufficient condition for a one-dimensional q-state n-input cellular automaton rule to be number-conserving is established. Two different forms of simpler and more visual representations of these rules are given, and their flow diagrams are determined. Various examples are presented and applications to c...

Constructing a Mass-Current Radiation-Reaction Force For Numerical Simulations
We present a new set of 3.5 Post-Newtonian equations in which Newtonian hydrodynamics is coupled to the nonconservative effects of gravitational radiation emission. Our formalism differs in two significant ways from a similar 3.5 Post-Newtonian approach proposed by Blanchet (1993, 1997). Firstly we concentrate only on ...

In such vacua, operators built out of the scalar fields acquire expectation values, and we show how to calculate them from the behavior of perturbations to the AdS bac...

We apply the full power of modern electronic band structure engineering and epitaxial heterostructures to design a transistor that can sense and control a single donor electron spin. Spin resonance transistors may form the technological basis for quantum information processing. One and two qubit operations are performe...

Dark matter annihilation at the galactic center
If cold dark matter is present at the galactic center, as in current models of the dark halo, it is accreted by the central black hole into a dense spike. Particle dark matter then annihilates strongly inside the spike, making it a compact source of photons, electrons, positrons, protons, antiprotons, and neutrinos. Th...

Bayes-optimal performance in a discrete space
We study a simple model of unsupervised learning where the single symmetry breaking vector has binary components $\pm 1$. We calculate exactly the Bayes-optimal performance of an estimator which is required to lie in the same discrete space. We also show that, except for very special cases, such an estimator cannot be ...

Computational Complexity of Uniform Quantum Circuit Families and Quantum Turing Machines
Deutsch proposed two sorts of models of quantum computers, quantum Turing machines (QTMs) and quantum circuit families (QCFs). In this paper we explore the computational powers of these models and re-examine the claim of the computational equivalence of these models often made in the literature without detailed investi...

The Cosmic Triangle: Revealing the State of the Universe
The "cosmic triangle" is introduced as a way of representing the past, present, and future status of the universe. Our current location within the cosmic triangle is determined by the answers to three questions: How much matter is in the universe? Is the expansion rate slowing down or speeding up? And, is the universe ...

Measuring the Remnant Mass Function of the Galactic Bulge
I show that by observing microlensing events both astrometrically and photometrically, the Space Interferometry Mission (SIM) can measure the mass function of stellar remnants in the Galactic bulge including white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes. Neutron stars and black holes can be identified individually, whil...

The Lick Planet Search: Detectability and Mass Thresholds
We analyse 11 years of precise radial velocities for 76 solar type stars from the Lick survey. Eight stars in this sample have previously reported planetary-mass companions, all with mass (m sin i) less than 8 Jupiter masses (MJ). For the stars without a detected companion, we place upper limits on possible companion m...

Holographic Particle Detection
In anti-de Sitter (AdS) space, classical supergravity solutions are represented "holographically" by conformal field theory (CFT) states in which operators have expectation values. These 1-point functions are directly related to the asymptotic behaviour of bulk fields. In some cases, distinct supergravity solutions hav...

Proof of the gradient conjecture of R. Thom
Let x(t) be a trajectory of the gradient of a real analytic function and suppose that x_0 is a limit point of x(t). We prove the gradient conjecture of R. Thom which states that the secants of x(t) at x_0 have a limit. Actually we show a stronger statement: the radial projection of x(t) from x_0 onto the unit sphere ha...

Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computation With Constant Error Rate
This paper proves the threshold result, which asserts that quantum computation can be made robust against errors and inaccuracies, when the error rate, $\eta$, is smaller than a constant threshold, $\eta_c$. The result holds for a very general, not necessarily probabilistic noise model, for quantum particles with any n...

In B2g symmetry, an analysis of the data in terms of a memory function approach is presented and dynamical relaxation rates $\Gamma(\omega,T)$ and mass-enhancement factors $1+\lambda(\omega,T)$ for the carriers are obtained.

We report the discovery of four field methane (T-type) brown dwarfs using 2MASS survey data. One additional methane dwarf, previously discovered by SDSS, was also identified. Near-infrared spectra clearly show the 1.6 and 2.2 um CH4 absorption bands characteristic of objects with T_eff < 1300 K, as well as broadened H2...

Radioactive Decay Energy Deposition in Supernovae and the Exponential/Quasi-Exponential Behavior of Late-Time Supernova Light Curves
The radioactive decay energy (RDE) deposition in supernovae from the decay chain Ni56-Co56-Fe56 usually directly powers the UV/optical/IR (UVOIR) bolometric luminosity of supernovae in their quasi-steady state phase until very late times. The result for this phase is exponential/quasi-exponential UVOIR bolometric light...

The set of ~30 new, unfiltered CCD observations delineate the early rise behavior of SNe Ia > 18 to 10 days before maximum. Using simple empirical models, we demonstrate the strong correlation between the ri...

It can be also used in other contexts, such as non lepto...

This fact ...
