Postcolonial Interjections: Jean-Philippe Stassen Illustrates Heart of Darkness and We Killed Mangy Dog

Jean-Philippe LANSBERG

Quarkonia are meson states whose constituents are a charm or bottom quark and its correspondingantiquark (QQ̄). The study of the production of such bound states in high-energy hadron collisions represents an important test for the Quantum Chromo-Dynamics. Despite the fact that the quarkonium saga has already a 40-year history, the quarkonium production mechanism is still an open issue. There...

The Game of Life cellular automaton is a classical example of a massively parallel collision-based computing device. The automaton exhibits mobile patterns, gliders, and generators of the mobile patterns, glider guns, in its evolution. We show how to construct basic logical operations, AND, OR, NOT in space-time configurations of the cellular automaton. Also decomposition of complicated Boolean...

where ε > 0 is very small and Σ ⊂ R is Lipschitz, open and bounded. A point of Σε is denoted by (x, x3) with x ∈ Σ and x3 ∈]− ε 2 , ε 2 [. Let W : M 3×3 → [0,+∞] be the stored-energy function supposed to be continuous and coercive, i.e., W (F ) ≥ C|F | for all F ∈ M and some C > 0. In order to take into account the important physical properties that the interpenetration of matter does not occur...
