The present work explores the theoretical effects of rotation in calculating the period ratios of double-mode radial pulsating stars with special emphasis on high-amplitude delta Scuti stars (HADS). Diagrams showing these period ratios vs.…
Non-time-orthogonal analysis of rotating frames is applied to objects in gravitational orbits and found to be internally consistent. The object's surface speed about its axis of rotation, but not its orbital speed, is shown to be readily…
The unitary isobar model MAID2007 has been used to analyze the recent data of pion electroproduction. The model contains all four-star resonances in the region below W=2 GeV and both single-Q^2 and Q^2 dependent transition form factors…
In this paper, we study the statistical mechanics within the polymer quantization framework in the semiclassical regime. We apply a non-canonical transformation to the phase space variables. Then, we use this non-canonical transformation to…
It was shown that in the small Wigner group there is a one-parameter subgroup of the Lorentz transformations, which leave unchanged not only the momentum of the fermion with spin h/2, but also its spin characteristics. This is the group of…
The parton structure of the nucleon and pion is investigated in an exploratory model that allows one to assess whether the dressing of quarks can, by itself, produce realistic gluon contributions to light-cone momentum fractions,…
The relationship between observed variability time and emission region geometry is explored for the case of emission by relativistic jets. The approximate formula for the jet-frame size of the emission region, $R'=Dc\Delta t_{\rm obs}$ is…
We report progress in our lattice study of hadronic weak matrix elements relevant for the Delta I = 1/2 rule and epsilon-prime. The presented results are from our first runs on a quenched ensemble with beta=6.0 and a dynamical Nf=2 ensemble…
We study the combinatorics of the contributions to the form factor of the group U(N) in the large $N$ limit. This relates to questions about semiclassical contributions to the form factor of quantum systems described by the unitary…
We analyze the One Boson Exchange Potential from the point of view of Renormalization theory. We show that the nucleon-meson Lagrangean while predicting the NN force does not predict the NN scattering matrix nor the deuteron properties…
We discuss the pion and nucleon form factors and generalized form factors within the large-Nc approach in the space-like region. We estimate their theoretical uncertainties through the use of the half-width rule, amounting to taking the…
Hedgehog model predictions for the leading nonanalytic behavior (in $m^{2}_{\pi }$) of certain observables are shown to agree with the predictions of chiral perturbation theory up to an overall factor which depends on the operator. This…
In one-dimensional quantum systems with strong long-range repulsion particles arrange in a quasi-periodic chain, the Wigner crystal. We demonstrate that besides the familiar phonons, such one-dimensional Wigner crystal supports an…
The quantum sine-Gordon model is the simplest massive interacting integrable quantum field theory whose two-particle scattering matrix is generally non-diagonal. As such, it is a model that has been extensively studied, especially in the…
The relativistic semi-classical approximation for a free massive particle is studied using the Wigner-Weyl formalism. A non-covariant Wigner function is proposed using the Newton-Wigner position operator. The perturbative solution for the…
Pulsators on and near the main sequence show period and amplitude changes that are too large to be the product of stellar evolution. The multiperiodic Delta Scuti stars are well suited to study these changes. This requires a very large…
We present a unified description of elastic and transition form factors involving the nucleon and its resonances; in particular, the $N(1440)$, $\Delta(1232)$ and $\Delta(1600)$. We compare predictions made using a framework built upon a…
We correct the values of the dominant nucleon to Delta axial transition form factors CA_5 and CA_6 published in C. Alexandrou et.al., Phys. Rev. D 76,094511 (2007). The analysis error affects only the values obtained when using the hybrid…
The strangeness content of nucleon form factors is analyzed in a two-component model with a quark-like intrinsic structure surrounded by a meson cloud. A comparison with the available experimental data from the SAMPLE, PVA4, HAPPEX and G0…
Succeeding in predicting 0^+ and 1^+ states of D and D_s heavy mesons by our semi-relativistic quark potential model, we examine a method how to construct Lorentz-invariant scattering amplitudes and/or decay widths and develop a formulation…
