The moment of inertia Q of a trapped superfluid gas of atomic Fermions (6Li) is calculated as a function of the temperature. At zero temperature the moment of inertia takes on the irrotational flow value. Only for T very close to Tc rigid…

We discuss some basic aspects of the dynamics of a homogenous Fermi gas in a weak random potential, under negligence of the particle pair interactions. We derive the kinetic scaling limit for the momentum distribution function with a…

Lorentz symmetry has been tested at low energy with great accuracy, but its extrapolation to very high-energy phenomena is much less well established. We expect a possible breaking of Lorentz symmetry to be a very high energy and very short…
Dirac equation describes the dynamics of a relativistic spin-1/2 particle regarding its spatial motion and intrinsic degrees of freedom. Here we adopt the point of view that the spinors describe the state of a massive particle carrying two…
The motion of a collisionless plasma - a high-temperature, low-density, ionized gas - is described by the Vlasov-Maxwell (VM) system. These equations are considered in one space dimension and two momentum dimensions without the assumption…
Some aspects of the motion of a tachyon is discussed. It is shown that the inertial frame Sigma-Prime around which the tachyon switches the direction of its motion, does not observe any movement of the tachyon at all. Inertial frames on…

We study in this paper the properties of a gas of fermions coupling to a U(1) gauge field at wavevectors $q<\Lambda<<k_F$ at dimensions larger than one, where $\Lambda<<k_F$ is a high momentum cutoff and $k_F$ is the fermi wave vector. In…
