Quark-Gluon Plasma Freeze-out from a Supercooled State?
We consider time-scales of first-order deconfinement or chiral-symmetry restoring phase transition in high energy heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. Recently it was shown that the system must supercool below $T_c$ before the nucleation of hadronic bubbles is sufficiently rapid to overcome the expansion rate...

Neutrino Lasing in the Sun
Applying the phenomenon of neutrino lasing in the solar interior, we show how the rate for the generic neutrino decay process `\nu -> fermion + boson', can in principal be enhanced by many orders of magnitude over its normal decay rate. Such a large enhancement could be of import to neutrino-decay models invoked in res...

Diagnostic Power of Future Colliders for Z'Couplings to Quarks and Leptons: e+e- versus pp Colliders
We study the diagnostic power of future $e^+e^-$ colliders with ${\sqrt {s}} = 500$ GeV (the New Large Collider ($NLC$)) for a model independent determination of the $Z'$ gauge couplings to quarks and leptons. The interference of the $Z'$ propagator with the photon and the $Z$ propagator in the two-fermion final state ...

The Phenomenology of a Non-Standard Higgs Boson IN $W_{L}W_{L}$ Scattering
In this paper we consider the phenomenology of a ``non-standard'' Higgs Boson in longitudinal gauge-Boson scattering. First, we present a composite Higgs model (based on an $SU(4)/Sp\,(4)$ chiral-symmetry breaking pattern) in which there is a non-standard Higgs Boson. Then we explore, in a model-independent way, the ph...

The 331 model, an extension of the standard electroweak theory to $SU(3)_L\times U(1)_X$, naturally predicts three families of quarks and leptons via the requirement of anomaly cancellation.

We develop the improved ladder approximation to QCD in order to apply it to the heavy quark mesons. The resulting Bethe-Salpeter equation is expanded in powers of the inverse heavy quark mass 1/M, and is shown to be consistent with the heavy quark spin symmetry. We calculate numerically the universal leading order BS a...

Spontaneous Current Generation in Cosmic Strings
It is shown that in models including the standard electroweak theory and for some particular values of the underlying parameters, electric currents can be spontaneously generated in cosmic strings, without the need of any external field (e.g., electric or magnetic) as is required in most models. This mechanism is then ...
