We measure directed flow ($v_1$) for charged particles in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} =$ 200 GeV and 62.4 GeV, as a function of pseudorapidity ($\eta$), transverse momentum ($p_t$) and collision centrality, based on data…

We examine dependence of the critical Josephson current on the length L of the normal bridge N between two bulk superconductors. This dependence turns out to be nonanalytic at small L. The nonanalyticity originates from the contribution of…
