201 Wu, Yong-ShiQuiver mechanics for deconstructed matrix stringIn this paper we propose a quiver model of matrix quantum mechanics with 8 supercharges which, on a Higgs branch, deconstructs the worldsheet of Matrix String Theory. This discrete model evades the fermion doubling problem and, in the continuum limit, enhances the number of supersymmetries to sixte...2003-12
202 Mallat, ChibliRenforcer la Société Civile contre l'Etat: Horizons du travail international au Proche et Moyen OrientVoici donc la conclusion extrêmement critique qui semble s'imposer sur la recherche d'une meilleure gouvernance dans une perspective SC. Il faut passer au-dessus de l'Etat pour renforcer la SC, et si nécessaire, la renforcer contre l'Etat. Vaste programme, qui commence par un apprentissage dém...2003-11

205 Varner, Michael W.; Clark, Edward B.; Fernando, Kumari L.; Mathews, V. JohnRobust estimation of fetal heart rate variability using Doppler ultrasound.This paper presents a new measure of heart rate variability (HRV) that can be estimated using Doppler ultrasound techniques and is robust to variations in the angle of incidence of the ultrasound beam and the measurement noise. This measure employs the multiple signal characterization (MUSIC) algori...Prenatal Ultrasonography; Fetal Heart Rate; Blood Flow Velocity; Algorithms2003-08
206 Liu, FengSeeing the atomic orbital: first-principles study of the effect of tip termination on atomic force microscopyWe perform extensive first-principles calculations to simulate the topographical atomic-force-microscope image of an adatom on the Si(111)-(7 X 7) surface, demonstrating the feasibility of imaging not only the atoms but also the atomic orbitals. Our comparative study of tip terminations shows that ...First-principles; Tip termination; Adatoms2003-06
207 McElreath, RichardShared norms and the evolution of ethnic markersUnlike other primates, human populations are often divided into ethnic groups that have self-ascribed membership and are marked by seemingly arbitrary traits such as distinctive styles of dress or speech (Barth 1969, 1981). The modern understanding that ethnic identities are flexible and ethnic bou...Ethnic groups; Ethnic identity; Migration; Markers2003-02
208 Mishchenko, EugeneShot noise in a diffusive ferromagnetic-paramagnetic-ferromagnetic spin valveFluctuations of electric current in a spin valve consisting of a diffusive conductor connected to ferromagnetic leads and operated in the giant magnetoresistance regime are studied. It is shown that fluctuations due to spin-flip scattering enhance strongly shot noise up to a point where the Fano fac...Fano factor; Shot noise2003-09
209 DeTar, CarletonStatic hybrid quarkonium potential with improved staggered quarksWe are studying the effects of light dynamical quarks on the excitation energies of a flux tube between a static quark and antiquark. We report preliminary results of an analysis of the ground state potential and the ∑g′+ and Πu potentials. We have measured these potentials on closely matched...Quarkonium; Staggered quarks; Flux tube2003-05
210 Smith, Grant D.; Bedrov, Dmitro; Borodin, OlegStructural relaxation and dynamic hetrogeneity in a polymer melt at attractive surfacesMolecular dynamics simulations of polymer melts at flat and structured surfaces reveal that, for the former, slow dynamics and increased dynamic heterogeneity for an adsorbed polymer is due to densification of the polymer in a surface layer, while, for the latter, the energy topography of the sur...Polymer melts; Structural relaxation; Dynamic heterogeneity; Attractive surfaces; Surface energy topography; Polymer densification2003-06
211 Boehme, ChristophTheory of the time-domain measurement of spin-dependent recombination with pulsed electrically detected magnetic resonanceThe theoretical foundations of the time domain measurement of spin-dependent charge carrier recombination by means of pulsed electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR) are outlined. Pulsed EDMR is based on the transient measurement of electrical currents in semiconductors after a coherent manip...Spin-dependent recombination2003-12
212 Mishchenko, EugeneThermal conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas with Coulomb interactionWe demonstrate that forward electron-electron scattering due to Coulomb interaction in a two-dimensional ballistic electron-gas leads to the (T ln T)21 temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity, which is logarithmically suppressed compared to the usual Fermi-liquid behavior.Coulomb drag; Coulomb interaction2003-01
213 DeTar, CarletonTopological susceptibility with the improved Asqtad actionChiral 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 fermions2003-12
214 DeTar, CarletonTopological susceptibility with the improved Asqtad actionAs a test of the chiral properties of the improved Asqtad (staggered fermion) action, we have been measuring the topological susceptibility as a function of quark masses for 2 + 1 dynamical flavors. We report preliminary results, which show reasonable agreement with leading order chiral perturbatio...Topological cbarge; Staggered fermions2003-05
215 Mishchenko, EugeneTransport equations for a two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit interactionThe transport equations for a two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit interaction are presented. The distribution function is a 232-matrix in the spin space. Particle and energy conservation laws determine the expressions for the electric current and the energy flow.

216 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineUltrafast dynamics of excitons and solitons in disubstituted polyacetyleneWe studied the ultrafast photoexcitation dynamics in disubstituted polyacetylene (DPA). We found two distinctively different relaxation channels for the photogenerated excitons; ionic and covalent pathways.

217 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Raikh, Mikhail E.Universal properties of random lasersThe design and fabrication of laser resonators is often difficult. However, random lasers occur in gain media with numerous scatterers and produce coherent laser emission without any predesigned cavity. The generation of coherent emission from multiple scattering is quite general and its basic prin...Random lasers; Laser resonators; pi-conjugated polymers; Rhodamine-TiO2 suspensions; Random media; Random lasing2003-01
