Review paper on computer simulations of the structure of amorphous silica.
This note presents an interesting counterexample to a basic covering problem.
We explore the sense in which the state of a physical system may or may not be regarded (an) observable in quantum mechanics. Simple and general arguments from various lines of approach are reviewed which demonstrate the following no-go…
The purpose of this paper is both to provide mathematical reinforcements to the paper [Mecozzi and Bellini : arXiv:1110.1253 [hep-ph]] by taking decoherence into consideration and to present some important problems related. We claim that…
In bulk silicon, intervalley electronic interference has been shown to lead to strong oscillations in the exchange coupling between impurity electronic wavefunctions, posing a serious manufacturability problem for proposed quantum…
Supercomputer building is a many sceene, many authors game, comprising a lot of different technologies, manufacturers and ideas. Checking data available in the public database in a systematic way, some general tendencies and limitations can…
This paper has been withdrawn because the analytic estimates are not confirmed by the numerical calculation of Nilles, Peloso and Sorbo (hep-ph/0102264 and hep-th/0103202).
What should a court do with a preliminary-injunction request to halt a multi-billion-dollar particle-physics experiment that plaintiffs claim could create a black hole that will devour the planet? The real-life case of CERN's LHC seems like…
A prediction and observational evidence for the mass of a dark matter particle are presented..
The available synthesized silicene-like structures have been only realized on metallic substrates which are very different from the standalone buckled silicene, e.g. the Dirac cone of silicene is destroyed due to lattice distortion and the…
New version, including a variant of Quillen's proof of the Solomon-Tits theorem.
A critical review on signatures of Quark-Gluon-Plasma formation is given and the current (1998) experimental status is discussed. After giving an introduction to the properties of QCD matter in both, equilibrium- and non-equilibrium…
Silicene and related buckled materials are distinct from both the conventional two dimensional electron gas and the famous graphene due to strong spin orbit coupling and the buckled structure. These materials have potential to overcome…
Forty years ago Witten suggested that dark matter could be composed of macroscopic clusters of strange quark matter. This idea was very popular for several years, but it dropped out of fashion once lattice QCD calculations indicated that…
We critically examine the often-made observation that "quantum winter [or some other winter] is coming", and the related admonition to prepare for this or that winter, inevitably bound to arrive. What we find based on even the most…
Lawrence et al. have presented an argument purporting to show that "relative facts do not exist" and, consequently, "Relational Quantum Mechanics is incompatible with quantum mechanics". The argument is based on a GHZ-like contradiction…
This Letter looks at the consequences of so-called 'superstrong nonlocal correlations', which are hypothetical violations of Bell/CHSH inequalities that are stronger than quantum mechanics allows, yet weak enough to prohibit…
A connection between fractional supersymmetric quantum mechanics and ordinary supersymmetric quantum mechanics is established in this Letter.
A quantum mechanism for logogenesis is conjectured.
Silicene, a counterpart of graphene, has achieved rapid development due to its exotic electronic properties and excellent compatibility with the mature silicon-based semiconductor technology. Its low room-temperature mobility of about 100…
