Kavli Affiliate: Paul McEuen | First 5 Authors: Kent L. McCormick, Michael T. Woodside, Mike Huang, Mingshaw Wu, Paul McEuen | Summary: Using an atomic force microscope as a local voltmeter, we measure the Hall voltage profile in a 2D electron gas in the quantum Hall (QH) regime. We observe a linear profile in the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Emil Martinec | First 5 Authors: Miao Li, Emil Martinec, Vatche Sahakian, , | Summary: Making combined use of the Matrix and Maldacena conjectures, the relation between various thermodynamic transitions in super Yang-Mills (SYM) and supergravity is clarified. The thermodynamic phase diagram of an object in DLCQ M-theory in four and five non-compact […]
Kavli Affiliate: Juan I. Collar | First 5 Authors: Juan I. Collar, , , , | Summary: The case for a stable population of solar-bound Earth-crossing Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) is reviewed. A practical general expression for their speed distribution in the laboratory frame is derived under basic assumptions. If such a population exists […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigetaka Moriyama | First 5 Authors: Makoto Minowa, Shigetaka Moriyama, Yoshizumi Inoue, Toshio Namba, Yuko Takasu | Summary: A preliminary result of the solar axion search experiment at the University of Tokyo is presented. We searched for axions which could be produced in the solar core by exploiting the axion helioscope. The helioscope […]
Kavli Affiliate: Shigetaka Moriyama | First 5 Authors: Shigetaka Moriyama, , , , | Summary: An experimental method is introduced to search for almost monochromatic solar axions. In this method, we can search for solar axions by exploiting the axion-quark coupling, not relying on the axion-photon coupling at all. A recent experimental result of Krv […]
