Graphene: status and prospects.

Graphene is a wonder material with many superlatives to its name. It is the thinnest known material in the universe and the strongest ever measured. Its charge carriers exhibit giant intrinsic mobility, have zero effective mass, and can travel for micrometers without scattering at room temperature. Graphene can sustain current densities six orders of magnitude higher than that of copper, shows ...

Bileptons - Status and Prospects

Theoretical backgound for bileptonic gauge bosons is reviewed, both the SU(15) GUT model and the 3-3-1 model. Then the mass limits for bileptons are discussed coming from e+e− scattering, polarized muon decay and muoniumantimuonium conversion. A consequence of precision electroweak data on the masses is mentioned. Discovery in e−e− at a linear collider is emphasised. Theoretical Background. The...

Ckm Status and Prospects

This presentation reviews the Standard Model formalism governing the weak decays of quarks, as embodied in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) weak mixing matrix, and summarizes the experimental status and outlook. Two recent CLEO |Vcb| analyses are described. Complications from strong interactions in relating the experimentally accessible quantities to CKM elements are highlighted, and prospec...
