The charged multiplicity fluctuations in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) are investigated to test perturbative QCD and local parton hadron duality (LPHD). The fluctuations were measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA in restricted phase…
Precision electroweak data allow one to test the standard model, constrain its parameters, and search for the effects of some kinds of new physics. The results of the most recent data from LEP, SLC, and elsewhere are described, as are their…
The recent CDF-II measurement of the $W$-boson mass shows a strong tension with the corresponding Standard Model prediction. Once active neutrino masses are explained in the context of the Low-Scale Seesaw mechanisms, this tension can be…

Qualitative changes in the collective excitation spectra of the $\rho$-meson triplet in neutron matter is studied, with particular emphasis on the breaking of the discrete $p\leftrightarrow n$ symmetry. The appearance of additional branches…
We show experimentally the existence of bright and dark spatial solitons in semiconductor resonators for excitation above the band gap energy. These solitons can be switched on, both spontaneously and with address pulses, without the…
