We consider bosons interacting through a narrow $s$-wave resonance. Such a resonance is characterized by an infinite scattering length and a large and negative effective range $r_0$. We argue that any number $N\ge3$ of bosons can form a…
Incompatible observables can be approximated by compatible observables in joint measurement or measured sequentially, with constrained accuracy as implied by Heisenberg's original formulation of the uncertainty principle. Recently, Busch,…
For a pair of observables, they are called "incompatible", if and only if the commutator between them does not vanish, which represents one of the key features in quantum mechanics. The question is, how can we characterize the…
The fact that there are quantum observables without a simultaneous measurement is one of the fundamental characteristics of quantum mechanics. In this work we expand the concept of joint measurability to all kinds of possible measurement…
The spectrum and statistics of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) are investigated under the hypothesis that scale invariance of the primordial density fluctuations should be promoted to full conformal invariance. As in the…
On the basis of the first principles we argue that self/anti-self charge conjugate states of the (1/2,0)+(0,1/2) representation can possess the axial charge. Finally, we briefly discuss recent claims of the \sim \vec \sigma \cdot [ \vec A…
Bell-type experiments that test correlated observables typically involve measurements of spin or polarization on multi-particle systems in singlet states. These observables are all non-commuting and satisfy an uncertainty relation.…
We propose a new experiment employing two independent sources of spin correlated photon pairs. Two photons from different unpolarized sources each pass through a polarizer to a detector. Although their trajectories never mix or cross they…
We discuss the meaning of anomalous vector boson self couplings. Implications of present experimental constraints for future colliders are discussed. Results for triple vector boson production at the LHC are given.
This thesis has been devoted to the study of different properties of hadrons with one and two heavy quarks $c$ and/or $b$. All calculations have been done in the framework of a nonrelativistic constituent quark model. In order to check the…
High-energy particle physics experiments allow for the possible existence of a new light, very weakly coupled, neutral gauge boson (the U boson). This one permits for light (spin-1/2 or spin-0) particles to be acceptable Dark Matter…
We develop a theory of non-relativistic bosons in two spatial dimensions with a weak short range attractive interaction. In the limit as the range of the interaction becomes small, there is an ultra-violet divergence in the problem. We…
The study of gauge bosons is interesting in two respects. The properties of gauge bosons are modified by higher order effects that are sensitive to mass scales not directly accessible to experiment. On the other hand interactions amongst…
Often, one would like to determine some observable A, but can only measure some (hopefully related) observable M. This can arise, for example, in quantum eavesdropping, or when the research lab budget isn't large enough for that 100%…
We propose a modified BCS wavefunction as the ground state of a correlated superconductor with the correlation specified between $k$ and $-k$ electrons in the reciprocal space. Owing to this correlation, low-energy excitations are not…
Entropic uncertainty relations, based on sums of entropies of probability distributions arising from different measurements on a given pure state, can be seen as a generalization of the Heisenberg uncertainty relation that is in many cases…
We study energy and particle transport for one-dimensional strongly interacting bosons through a single channel connecting two atomic reservoirs. We show the emergence of particle- and energy- current separation, leading to the violation of…
The boundary scattering problem in 1+1 dimensional CFT is relevant to a multitude of areas of physics, ranging from the Kondo effect in condensed matter theory to tachyon condensation in string theory. Invoking a correspondence between CFT…
Transport through a one--dimensional wire of interacting electrons connected to semi--infinite leads is investigated using a bosonization approach. An incident electron is transmitted as a sequence of partial charges. The dc conductance is…
The common wisdom that the phonon mechanism of electron pairing in the weak-coupling Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductors leads to conventional s-wave Cooper pairs is revised. An inevitable anisotropy of sound velocity in…
