1 Liu, FengComputational designing of carbon nanotube electromechanical pressure sensorsWe investigate electronic transport properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT's) under hydrostatic pressure, using first-principles quantum transport calculations aided by molecular-dynamics simulation and continuum mechanics analysis. We demonstrate a pressure-induced metal-to-semiconduc...Carbon nanotubes; Computational designing; Pressure sensors; Electronic transport2004-04
2 Wu, Yong-ShiIntegrable spin chain and operator mixing in N = 1,2 supersymmetric theoriesWe study operator mixing, due to planar one-loop corrections, for composite operators in D = 4 supersymmetric theories. We present some N = 1, 2 Yang-Mills and Wess-Zumino models, in which the planar one-loop anomalous dimension matrix in the sector of holomorphic scalars is identified with the Hami...2004-04
3 Kieda, David B.; Bergman, Douglas R.; Sokolsky, PierreMeasurement of the flux of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays from monocular observations by the high resolution fly's eye experimentWe have measured the cosmic ray spectrum above 10^172 eV using the two air-fluorescence detectors of the High Resolution Fly's Eye observatory operating in monocular mode.We describe the detector, phototube, and atmospheric calibrations, as well as the analysis techniques for the two detectors.We ...High Resolution Fly's Eye; Ultrahigh energy cosmic rays2004-04

5 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotoexcitation dynamics and laser action in solutions and films of PPE-PPV copolymerWe used a variety of ultrafast and steady-state spectroscopy techniques to study the photoexcitation dynamics and laser action in dilute and concentrated solutions and in thin films of poly(phenylene-ethynylene)/ poly(phenylene-vinylene) [PPE-PPV] copolymer. We found that the primary photoexcitatio...Photoexcitation dynamics; Laser action; PPE-PPV copolymers2004-04
6 Wu, Yong-ShiQuiver matrix mechanics for IIB string theory (I): wrapping membranes and emergent dimensionIn this paper we present a discrete, non-perturbative formulation for type IIB string theory. Being a supersymmetric quiver matrix mechanics model in the framework of M(atrix) theory, it is a generalization of our previous proposal of compactification via orbifolding for deconstructed IIA strings. ...2004-04
