Glass Dielectrics in Extreme High‐Temperature Environment

The Colored Glass Condensate and Extreme Qcd

The high energy limit of QCD is controlled by the small-x part of a hadron wavefunction. I argue that this part is universal to all hadrons and is composed of a new form of matter: a Colored Glass Condensate. This matter is weakly interacting at very small x, but is non-perturbative because of the highly occupied boson states which compose the condensate. Such a matter might be studied in high ...

On the glass temperature under extreme pressures.

The application of a modified Simon-Glatzel-type relation [Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 178, 309 (1929)] for the pressure evolution of the glass temperature is presented, namely, Tg(P)=Tg0[1+DeltaP/(pi+Pg0)]1/bexp[-(DeltaP/c)], where (Tg0,Pg0) are the reference temperature and pressure, DeltaP=P-Pg0, -pi is the negative pressure asymptote, b is the power exponent, and c is the damping pressure coeffic...

As a result, the code base’s overall health degenerated and was salvaged only through two successful reengineering efforts and a series of infrastructure projects designed to improve overall engineering practices. It wasn’t until later that we realized how...

Software Cloning in Extreme Programming Environment

Software systems are evolving by adding new functions and modifying existing functions over time. Through the evolution, the structure of software is becoming more complex and so the understandability and maintainability of software systems is deteriorating day by day. These are not only important but one of the most expensive activities in software development. Refactoring has often been appli...
