Preliminary Limits on the WIMP-Nucleon Cross Section from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS)

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Daniel Akerib | Summary:We are conducting an experiment to search for WIMPs, or weakly-interacting massive particles, in the galactic halo using terrestrial detectors. This generic class of hypothetical particles, whose properties are similar to those predicted by extensions of the standard model of particle physics, could comprise the cold component of non-baryonic dark […]

SUSYGEN 2.2 – A Monte Carlo Event Generator for MSSM Sparticle Production at e+ e- Colliders

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Stavros Katsanevas | Summary:SUSYGEN is a Monte Carlo program designed for computing distributions and generating events for MSSM sparticle production in e+ e- collisions. The Supersymmetric (SUSY) mass spectrum may either be supplied by the user, or can alternatively be calculated in two different models of SUSY Breaking: gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking (SUGRA), […]

The McKay correspondence for finite subgroups of SL(3,C)

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Yukari Ito | Summary:This is the final draft, containing very minor proof-reading corrections. Let G in SL(n,C) be a finite subgroup and fie: Y -> X = C^n/G any resolution of singularities of the quotient space. We prove that crepant exceptional prime divisors of Y correspond one-to-one with “junior” conjugacy classes of G. […]

Gorenstein Quotient Singularities of Monomial Type in Dimension Three

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Yukari Ito | Summary:The purpose of this paper is to construct a crepant resolution of quotient singularities by finite subgroups of SL(3,C) of monomial type, and prove that the Euler number of the resolution is equal to the number of conjugacy classes. This result is a part of conjecture II in previous paper […]
