Continuing our previous work(JHEP 0706:030,2007), large--$N_C$ techniques and partial wave dispersion relations are used to discuss $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes. We get a set of predictions for $O(p^6)$ low-energy chiral perturbation…
Recent refinements on a semiclassical approach are reviewed, aiming at describing the inhomogeneous local gap parameter in the presence of non-trivial spatial geometries and at taking into account at the same time pairing fluctuations…
The structures of N phi states with spin-parity J^{p}=3/2^- and J^p=1/2^- are dynamically studied in both the chiral SU(3) quark model and the extended chiral SU(3) quark model by solving a resonating group method (RGM) equation. The model…
We construct a nonlocal density functional approximation with full exact exchange, while preserving the constraint-satisfaction approach and justified error cancellations of simpler semilocal functionals. This is achieved by interpolating…
We use a variational approach to gain insight into the strongly correlated d-wave superconducting state of the high Tc cuprates at T=0. We show that strong correlations lead to qualitatively different trends in pairing and phase coherence:…
We investigate properties of strongly interacting matter in a schematic model, based on the combined degrees of freedom of a non-interacting hadronic phase and a non-interacting deconfined phase. It is found that in a finite system both…
We present an explicit expression for a particular $n$-gluon two loop scattering partial amplitude. Specifically we present an analytic form for the single trace $N_c$ independent colour partial amplitude for the case where all external…
Mutual scattering arises when multiple waves intersect within a finite scattering object, resulting in cross-interference between the incident and scattered waves. By measuring mutual scattering, we determine the complex-valued scattering…
We report on the computation of the scaling of QCD observables with the number of colours, $N_c$. For this, we use dynamical configurations with four active flavours, $N_f=4$, and values of $N_c=3-6$. We study the meson masses and decay…

Results on dynamical fluctuations of charged particles in the pseudorapidity space of central C--Cu interactions at 4.5 $A$ GeV/$c$ are performed in the transformed variables and using higher order scaled factorial moments modifyied to…
We consider a class of one-dimensional nonselfadjoint semiclassical pseudo-differential operators, subject to small random perturbations, and study the statistical properties of their (discrete) spectra, in the semiclassical limit $h\to 0$.…
The complete characterization of spatial coherence is difficult because the mutual coherence function is a complex-valued function of four independent variables. This difficulty limits the ability of controlling and optimizing spatial…
In-band full-duplex (FD) communication provides a promising alternative to half-duplex (HD) for wireless systems, due to increased spectral efficiency and capacity. In this paper, HD and FD radio implementations of two way, two hop and two…
A large, strongly temperature-dependent Nernst coefficient, $\nu$, is observed between $T$ = 2 K and 300 K for CeCu$_2$Si$_2$ and Ce$_{0.8}$La$_{0.2}$Cu$_2$Si$_2$. The enhanced $\nu(T)$ is determined by the asymmetry of the on-site Kondo…
Phase-amplitude coupling is a phenomenon observed in several neurological processes, where the phase of one signal modulates the amplitude of another signal with a distinct frequency. The modulation index (MI) is a common technique used to…
