New enhancements to Feynmans Path Integral for fermions

We show that the computational effort for the numerical solution of fermionic quantum systems, occurring e.g., in quantum chemistry, solid state physics, field theory in principle grows with less than the square of the particle number for problems stated in one space dimension and with less than the cube of the particle number for problems stated in three space dimensions. This is proven by rep...

B Physics B Physics

A summary of the most recent and important measurements in b physics is presented. The production of beauty particles in Z decays, b quark couplings, lifetimes, B-B0 oscillations, semileptonic b decays and studies of the number of charm quarks produced in b decays are reviewed. Extraction of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements |Vtd|, |Vcb|, |Vub| and implication for |Vts| are di...

Quantum Physics: A Case for Anti-Realism?

quantum physics: a case for anti-realism?

the aim of the present paper is to sbo» that anti-realism in science, 1vhich has a1;guab/y become more fashionable in recentyears, contrary to tuha: its proponents assert, cannot make use of quantum mechanics and its impressiue achievements as a frump card in justifying its claims. i will argue that scientific anti-realism far from providing scientific communiry with a progressive methodologica...

Application of Seed Equilibrium Moisture Curves in Agro Physics

The water relations play a fundamental role in seed comprehension of biology. In order to describe the process of drying and the effect on water activity, which controls biological change in storage, a sound knowledge of the relationship between equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and water activity/equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) is essential. The relationship between the total moisture con...
