301 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineSpectroscopic study of spin-dependent exciton formation rates in ∏-conjugated semiconductors: comparison with electroluminescence techniquesIt has been found in recent measurements that the singlet-to-triplet exciton ratio in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is larger than expected from spin degeneracy, and that singlet excitons form at a larger rate than triplets. We employed the technique of optically detected magnetic resonance...Spin-dependent exciton formation; pi-conjugated polymers2004-12

305 Gondolo, PaoloPrompt atmospheric neutrinos and muons: dependence on the gluon distribution functionWe compute the next-to-leading order QCD predictions for the vertical flux of atmospheric muons and neutrinos from decays of charmed particles, for different PDF's (MRS-R1, MRS-R2, CTEQ-4M and MRST) and different extrapolations of these at a small partonic momentum fraction x. We find that the predi...Neutrino telescopes; Charm; Atmospheric flux; Prompt flux2000-02
306 Mattis, Daniel C.Anomalous skin effect in a magnetic fieldA classical and quantum mechanical derivation of cyclotron resonance in metals is given. The classical result differs slightly from that obtained by Azbel and Kaner.

309 Mattis, Daniel C.Conductivity of one-dimensional interacting fermions*Using an exactly soluble model, the decay rate of a current-carrying state of one-dimensional fermions is calculated in the presence of random scatterers at finite temperature and the dc conductivity thereby inferred.

320 Gondolo, PaoloDark Stars: the first stars in the universe may be powered by dark matter healingA new line of research on Dark Stars is reviewed, which suggests that the first stars to exist in the universe were powered by dark matter heating rather than by fusion.
