Renormalization Of The Energy-Momentum Tensor And The Validity Of The Equivalence Principle At Finite Temperature, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein, Rw Robinett Dec 1984

Renormalization Of The Energy-Momentum Tensor And The Validity Of The Equivalence Principle At Finite Temperature, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein, Rw Robinett

Barry R Holstein

Using the techniques of finite-temperature field theory we renormalize the electromagnetic and gravitational couplings of an electron which is immersed in a heat bath with T

Possibilities For Finite Grand Unification With N = 2 Supersymmetry, Asim Gangopadhyaya Dec 1983

Possibilities For Finite Grand Unification With N = 2 Supersymmetry, Asim Gangopadhyaya

Asim Gangopadhyaya

We study the prospects for constructing finite grand unified theories using softly broken N = 2 global supersymmetry. The requirement that the supersymmetry breaking scale be of order 103−104 GeV and that the mixing between the observed light fermions and the mirror fermions present in N = 2 theories be small («mW), make it difficult to construct finite grand unified theories based on a large class of simple groups with a realistic symmetry breaking pattern.

Topoi And Categories Of Fuzzy Sets, Lawrence Stout Dec 1983

Topoi And Categories Of Fuzzy Sets, Lawrence Stout

Lawrence N. Stout

Let H be a completely distributive lattice and hence a Heyting algebra. Goguen's category of fuzzy sets Set(H) Eytan's logos Fuz(H) and the topos of sheaves on H, Sh(H), are interconnected by pairs of adjoint functors between them. Each of the categories has a predicate calculus. These predicate calculi are related through the functors between the categories. Change of base lattice gives rise to several functors which preserve or reflect specific kinds of statements in the predicate calculi. This paper gives details of the categories, the predicate calculi attached to them, the functors between the categories, and the preservation properties …


Predicting The Proton Mass From Pi-Pi-Scattering Data, Jf Donoghue, E Golowich, Br Holstein Dec 1983

Predicting The Proton Mass From Pi-Pi-Scattering Data, Jf Donoghue, E Golowich, Br Holstein

Barry R Holstein

We relate experimental information on ππ scattering to tree-level effective chiral Lagrangians. The result is of a form similar to that used in Skyrme-type models of the proton, where the nucleons are described as topologically stable solitons of the chiral fields. In such models, one can express the proton mass in terms of measured scattering data, with the result Mp=880±300 MeV. We interpret this as a consistency test for the Skyrme models.
