DeTar, Carleton | Topological susceptibility with the improved Asqtad action | Chiral perturbation theory predicts that in quantum chromodynamics light dynamical quarks suppress the topological (instanton) susceptibility.We investigate this suppression through direct numerical simulation using the Asqtad improved lattice fermion action. This action holds promise for carrying... | Chiral perturbation; Staggered fermions | 2003-12 |

Gondolo, Paolo | Directional recoil rates for WIMP direct detection | New techniques for the laboratory direct detection of dark matter weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are sensitive to the recoil direction of the struck nuclei.We compute and compare the directional recoil rates dR/d cosθ, (where θ is the angle measured from a reference direction in th... | WIMP; Weakly interacting massive particles; WMAP 3; Directional recoil; Halo models | 2008-02 |

Bromley, Benjamin C. | Periodic standing-wave approximation: overview and three dimensional scalar models | The periodic standing-wave method for binary inspiral computes the exact numerical solution for periodic binary motion with standing gravitational waves, and uses it as an approximation to slow binary inspiral with outgoing waves. Important features of this method presented here are: (i) the mathe... | Periodic standing wave method; Black holes; Neutron stars | 2004 |
