Instanton Condensation in Field Strength Formulated QCD
Field strength formulated Yang-Mills theory is confronted with the traditional formulation in terms of gauge fields. It is shown that both formulations yield the same semiclassics, in particular the same instanton physics. However, at the tree level the field strength approach is superior because it already includes a ...

Color--Sextet Quark Condensation in QCD
We suggest that the sextet color condensation model is not only the simplest and most attractive scheme to modify the standard model but also may already have some ``experimental" support. The crucial test may be to observe a short-- lived axion--like $\eta_6$ of mass around 60 GeV/$c^2$ that can produce high energy ph...

Nucleon Form Factors in a Relativistic Quark Model
We demonstrate that a relativistic constituent-quark model can give nucleon form factors in agreement with data for both low and high momentum transfer. The relativistic features of the model and the specific form of the wave function are essential for the result.

Massive neutrinos and electroweak baryogenesis
We show that certain models for neutrino masses that lead to the MSW explanation of the solar neutrino data and/or the hot dark matter component in the universe can also naturally allow for the successful generation of the cosmological baryon asymmetry at the electroweak scale. This follows either because the experimen...

Generation of the Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe within the Left--Right Symmetric Model
Fermions scattering off first-order phase transition bubbles, in the framework of $SU(2)_L\otimes SU(2)_R\otimes U(1)$ models, may generate the Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe (BAU), either at the $LR$-symmetry-breaking scale, or at the weak scale.

The effects of a strongly interacting Higgs sector on $\gamma\,\gamma\rightarrow W_L^+\,W_L^-, Z_L^{\,0}\,Z_L^{\,0}$ scattering

Probing CP Violation Via Higgs Decays to Four Leptons

Chiral Corrections to Hyperon Vector Form Factors
We show that the leading $SU(3)$-breaking corrections to the $\Delta S = 1$ $f_1$ vector form factors of hyperons are $O(m_s)$ and $O(m_s^{3/2})$, and are expected to be $\sim 20$--$30\%$ by dimensional analysis. This is consistent with the Ademollo--Gatto theorem, in a sense that we explain. We compute the $O(m_s)$ co...

The Rate for $e^+e^-\to B B^\pm \pi^\mp$ and its Implications for the Study of CP Violation, $B_s$ Identification, and the Study of $B$ Meson Chiral Perturbation Theory

The sign of the charged pion would tag the neutral $B$ meson. We estimate this branching ratio, emp...

We show how to determine the ratio of the transverse velocity of a source to the velocity of emitted particles, using split-bin correlation functions.

Topological Landau-Ginzburg Model of Two-Dimensional String Theory
We study a topological Landau-Ginzburg model with superpotential W(X)=X^{-1}. This is argued to be equivalent to c=1 string theory compactified at the self-dual radius. We compute the tree-level correlation function of N tachyons in this theory and show their agreement with matrix-model results. We also discuss the nat...

Wheeler-DeWitt Equation in Two-dimensional Quantum Gravity with $c=1$ Conformal Matter Field
In the context of two-dimensional quantum cosmology, we consider the path-integral of a string on annulus which contains the Liouville field and conformal matter fields. We show that, in the transition amplitude of the string universe, the non-zero modes of the fields are all cancelled out only when we take the $c=1$ c...

$N=1$ from $N=2$ Superstrings
We give a simple proof that a particular class of $N=2$ superstrings are equivalent to the $N=1$ superstrings. This is achieved by constructing a similarity transformation which transforms the $N=2$ BRST operators into a direct sum of the BRST operators for the $N=1$ string and topological sectors.
