Particle production in equilibrium and nonequilibrium quantum systems is calculated. The effects of the off-shell propagation of nucleons in medium on the particle production are discussed. Comparision to the semiclassical production rate…
Toby Walsh in 'The Singularity May Never Be Near' gives six arguments to support his point of view that technological singularity may happen but that it is unlikely. In this paper, we provide analysis of each one of his arguments and arrive…
A complex message from space may require the use of computers to display, analyze and understand. Such a message cannot be decontaminated with certainty, and technical risks remain which can pose an existential threat. Complex messages…
A list of arguments favouring quark-antiquark nature of a0(980) and f0(980) is presented.
In the paper I prove that there are two squares of opposition. The unconventional one is built up for synthetic propositions. There a, i are contrary, a, o (resp. e, i) are contradictory, e, o are subcontrary, a, e (resp. i, o) are said to…
Some formulas and speculations are presented relative to integrable systems and quantum mechanics.
We refute the arguments by Anton in cond-mat/0004390, which set out to disprove the existence of a collapse transition for a randomly forced inelastic particle.
The best mathematical arguments against a realistic interpretation of quantum mechanics - that gives definite but partially unknown values to all observables - are analysed and shown to be based on reasoning that is not compelling. This…
We provide a brief overview of some current experimental and theoretical issues of heavy quark production.
The paper is withdrawn.
The paper presents a counterexample to the Hodge conjecture.
Graphane is graphene fully hydrogenated from both sides, forming a 1x1 structure, where all C atoms are in sp3 configuration. In silicene, the Si atoms are in a mix-sp2/sp3 configuration, it is therefore natural to imagine silicane in…
We review the history of comparisons between bottom production measurements and QCD predictions. We challenge the existence of a `significant discrepancy', and argue that standard approaches to QCD calculations do a good job in describing…
Possible signatures which may indicate an existence of antimatter in the Galaxy and in the early universe are reviewed. A model which could give rise to abundant antimatter in the Galaxy is considered.
The word \textit{proposition} is used in physics with different meanings, which must be distinguished to avoid interpretational problems. We construct two languages $\mathcal{L}^{\ast}(x)$ and $\mathcal{L}(x)$ with classical set-theoretical…
In this short note I reply to criticisms of an argument in my paper [1] that appear in comment [2]. I refer the reader to section 4 of [1] in which I described the scenario of a Gedankenexperiment on which is based the argument criticized…
Several principal aspects of a theoretical approach to the theory of faster-than-light particles (tachyons) are considered in this note. They concern the resolution of such problems of tachyon theory as the causality violation by tachyons,…
We note that the empirical predictions of the "Quantum Clock Proposal" [L. Maccone and K. Sacha, Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 110402 (2020)] are paradoxical when viewed as a solution to the quantum arrival-time problem.
Towards precise predictions of residue cross sections of the superheavy elements, recent theoretical developments of reaction mechanisms are presented, together with the remaining problems which give rise to ambiguities in absolute values…
The case for the International Linear Collider and the prospects for its realisation as well as possible timelines are discussed.
