Can Disordered Chiral Condensates Form? A Dynamical Perspective
We address the issue of whether a region of disordered chiral condensate (DCC), in which the chiral condensate has components along the pion directions, can form. We consider a system going through the chiral phase transition either via a quench, or via relaxation of the high temperature phase to the low temperature ...

Quark cluster signatures in deuteron electromagnetic interactions
A suggestion is made for distinguishing 2N and 6q short range correlations within the deuteron. The suggestion depends upon observing high momentum backward nucleons emerging from inelastic electromagnetic scattering from a deuteron target. A simple model is worked out to see the size of effects that may be expected.

Form Factors in the Heavy Quark and Chiral Limit: Pole dominance in $\bar B\to \pi e \bar\nu_e$
It is shown that the form factors in the semileptonic decay of ground state heavy mesons to light pseudoscalar mesons are dominated by the vector meson pole at all momentum transfers. First, the general approaches to modeling form factors in terms of quark model, pole dominance, or hybrid shapes are reviewed. It is the...

The off-shell electromagnetic form factors of pions and kaons in chiral perturbation theory
The off-shell electromagnetic vertex of a (pseudo-) scalar particle contains, in general, two form factors F and G which depend, in addition to the squared momentum transfer, on the invariant masses associated with the initial and final legs of the vertex. Chiral perturbation theory to one loop is used to calculate the...

Comment on "Analytic Solution of the Relativistic Coulomb Problem for a Spinless Salpeter Equation"
We demonstrate that the analytic solution for the set of energy eigenvalues of the semi-relativistic Coulomb problem reported by B. and L. Durand is in clear conflict with an upper bound on the ground-state energy level derived by some straightforward variational procedure.

Phenomenological Constraints on $\bar\Lambda$ and $\lambda_1$
Combining the experimental data on the inclusive decays $D\to X\,e\,\nu$, $B\to X\,e\,\nu$ and $B\to X\,\tau\,\nu$, we find severe constraints on the $\bar\Lambda$ and $\lambda_1$ parameters of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory. In particular, we get $\bar\Lambda<0.7\,$GeV. Our constraints further imply $m_c\geq1.43\,$G...

If cosmic strings are present at the electroweak phase transition, they can act as seeds on which bubbles of true vacuum nucleate. We explore the nature of such a phase transition, in particular the wall velocity and thickness of the bubbles. {}From the viewpoint of electroweak baryogenesis, adiabatic conditions exist ...

Model for a Light Z' Boson
A model of a light $Z'$ boson is constructed and phenomenological bounds are derived. This $Z'$ boson arises from a very simple extension to the Standard Model, and it is constrained to be light because the vacuum expectation values which generate its mass also break the electroweak gauge group. It is difficult to dete...
