The Dynamical Behaviors in (2+1)-Dimensional Gross-Neveu Model with a Thirring Interaction

We analyze (2+1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu model with a Thirring interaction, where a vector-vector type four-fermi interaction is on equal terms with a scalar-scalar type one. The Dyson-Schwinger equation for fermion self-energy function is constructed up to next-to-leading order in 1/N expansion. We determine the critical surface which is the boundary between a broken phase and an unbroken one in ($α_c,~ β_c,~ N_c$) space. It is observed that the critical behavior is mainly controlled by Gross-Neveu coupling $α_c$ and the region of the broken phase is separated into two parts by the line $α_c=α_c^*(=\frac{8}{π^2})$. The mass function is strongly dependent upon the flavor number N for $α> α_c^*$, while weakly for $α< α_c^*$. For $α> α_c^*$, the critical flavor number $N_c$ increases as Thirring coupling $β$ decreases. By driving the CJT effective potential, we show that the broken phase is energetically preferred to the symmetric one. We discuss the gauge dependence of the mass function and the ultra-violet property of the composite operators.

Negative modes and decay-rate transition

We investigate a relationship between the number of the negative modes around periodic instanton solution and the type of the decay-rate transition. It is shown that for the case of first-order decay-rate transition the lowest positive mode at low energy periodic instanton becomes additional negative mode at high energy regime, while in the second-order case there is only one negative mode in the full range of energy. This kind of analysis on the negative modes makes it possible to derive the criterion for the first-order transition.

Effect of dissipation on the decay-rate phase transition

A general condition for sharp transition of decay rate from quantum to thermal regimes is derived in dissipative tunneling models when position dependent mass is involved. It is shown that the effect of dissipation in general changes the order of the phase transition. Especially, for the models with constant mass the Ohmic dissipation enlarges the range of parameters for first-order phase transitions. In the case of second-order phase transition the Ohmic dissipation suppresses the decay rate near the transition temperature(T_c). For the super-Ohmic case the dissipation yields an opposite effects to the Ohmic dissipation within exponential approximation.

Polarization in B_c -> J/ψmu nu

We study the polarization of the J/ψmeson of the B_c -> J/ψmu nu decay process, followed by J/ψ-> mu+ mu-, with the help of the heavy-quark spin symmetry formalism (HQSS). We adapt the ISGW wave function. Due to the clean signature of the decay mode, measurements of the polarization of the J/ψmeson can play a special role in extracting |V_{cb}|, the quark mixing-matrix element. We compare the results with the predictions of other quark models.

Phenomenological Implications of the Topflavor Model

We explore phenomenologies of the topflavour model for the LEP experiment at $m_{_Z}$ scale and the atomic parity violation (APV) experiment in the $C_s$ atoms at low energies. Implications of the model on the $Z$ peak data are studied in terms of the precision variables $ε_i$'s. We find that the LEP data give more stringent constraints on the model parameters than the APV data.

General Static Axially-symmetric Solutions of (2+1)-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton Theory

We obtain the general static solutions of the axially symmetric (2+1)-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory by dimensionally reducing it to a 2-dimensional dilaton gravity theory. The solutions consist of the magnetically charged sector and the electrically charged sector. We illuminate the relationship between the two sectors by pointing out the transformations between them.

Form Factors for Exclusive Semileptonic $B$--Decays

We investigate the form factors for exclusive semileptonic decays of $B$-meson to $D,~D^*$, based on the parton picture and helped by the results of the HQET. We obtain the numerical results for the slope of the Isgur-Wise function, which is consistent with the experimental results, and we extracte the dependences of hadronic form factors on $q^2$ by varying input heavy quark fragmentation function without the nearest pole dominance ansätze.

The Entropy of the Complex Scalar Field in a Charged Kerr Black Hole

By using the brick wall method we calculate the thermodynamic potential of the complex scalar field in a charged Kerr black hole. Using it we show that in the Hartle-Hawking state the leading term of the entropy is proportional to $\frac{ A _H}{ε^2}$, which becomes divergent as the system approaches the black hole horizon. The origin of the divergence is that the density of states diverges at the horizon.

The Parton Model Approach to Inclusive B meson Decays

We test the parton model approach to inclusive $B \ra γX_s$ and $B \ra e \barν X_u$ processes by calculating a few moments of the distribution function. The $1/m_Q$ expansion of $b$-quark distribution function is discussed. We show that Peterson's fragmentation function is useful as the distribution function of $b$-quark but requires some improvements. By extension of Peterson's arguments, we obtain the refined form for the distribution function and with the refined function, we obtain the consistent results with the HQET.

On the Entropy of a Quantum Field in the Rotating Black Holes

By using the brick wall method we calculate the free energy and the entropy of the scalar field in the rotating black holes. As one approaches the stationary limit surface rather than the event horizon in comoving frame, those become divergent. Only when the field is comoving with the black hole (i.e. $Ω_0 = Ω_H$) those become divergent at the event horizon. In the Hartle-Hawking state the leading terms of the entropy are $ A \frac{1}{h} + B \ln(h) + finite$, where $h$ is the cut-off in the radial coordnate near the horizon. In term of the proper distance cut-off $ε$ it is written as $ S = N A_H/ε^2$. The origin of the divergence is that the density of state on the stationary surface and beyond it diverges.

$R_b$-$R_c$ Crisis and the Higgs Boson Mass from LEP Precision Data

We study the effects on the Higgs boson mass from LEP precision data of the new physics explaining $R_b$-$R_c$ crisis. We implement a fit to LEP observables with the new physics. We obtain $M_H^{\rm New Physics} = 85 ^{+ 467}_{-56} ~~{\rm GeV}$. Comparing with the value of the SM fit, $M_H^{\rm SM} = 38^{+ 96}_{-21} ~~{\rm GeV}$, the errors are larger and the central value is higher. The new physics may allow $M_H$ to have a value out of the range of ${\cal O}(M_Z)$.

Remarks on the Upper Bounds on the Higgs Boson Mass from Triviality

We study the effects of the one-loop matching conditions on Higgs boson and top quark masses on the triviality bounds on the Higgs boson mass using $β_λ$ with corrected two-loop coefficients. We obtain quite higher results than previous ones and observe that the triviality bounds are not nearly influenced by varying top quark mass over the range measured at CDF and D0. The effects of typo errors in $β_λ^{(2)}$ and the one-loop matching condition on the top quark mass are negligible. We estimate the size of effects on the triviality bounds from the one-loop matching condition on the Higgs boson mass.

The Entropy of a Quantum Field in a Charged Kerr Black Hole

We calculate the entropies of the system of classical particles and a quantum scalar field by using the brick wall method in thermal bath in a charged Kerr black hole spacetime. Their leading terms at Hartle-Hawking temperature $T_H = κ/(2 π) $ are given by $ S_{cl} \approx N \ \ln \left( \frac{A_b}{ε^2} \right)$, and $S \approx N' \frac{A_H}{ε^2}$, where $A_b$ and $A_H$ are the area of the box and the horizon respectively.

$a_1 (1260)$ contribution to photon and dilepton productions from hot hadronic matter : Revisited

We consider the $a_{1} (1260)$ contribution to photon and dilepton productions from hot hadronic matter. The effective lagrangian with $π, ρ$ and $a_{1}$ discussed by Ko and Rudaz is employed, which successfully reproduces the $Γ(a_{1} \rightarrow πγ) = 670$ keV. Our results for the photon production rate are comparable to those obtained by Xiong {\it et al.}, while the dilepton production rates come out smaller than those obtained by Gale {\it et al.} by an order of magnitude.

Is Lavelle-McMullan transformation a really new symmetry in QED?

Lavelle-McMullan symmetry of QED is examined at classical and quantum levels. It is shown that Lavelle-McMullan symmetry does not give any new non-trivial information in QED by examining the Ward-Takahashi identities. Being inspired by the examination of Ward-Takahashi identity, we construct the generalized non-local and non-covariant symmetries of QED.
