T. S. Eliot and Bob Dylan: Confronting “The Modern Condition” with Faith

The works of T. S. Eliot and Bob Dylan seem to flow from the same spring – an agonizing sense of the contemporary human condition and the state of society – and several critics have recently begun to observe the similarities between these two writers. Through comparative readings of T. S. Eliot’s and Bob Dylan’s earlier and later works this project investigates how their religious turn influenc...

s . in s - de t ] 6 S ep 2 00 6 THE OPERA EXPERIMENT

The physics motivations and the detector design of the long baseline OPERA experiment are discussed; OPERA is a hybrid detector made of several types of electronic subdetectors, 2 magnets and lead/nuclear emulsions " brick " walls. It is located in the Gran Sasso underground lab, 732 km from CERN, on the CNGS neutrino beam. A summary of the performances and of the physics plans are presented.

Logical s-t Min-Cut Problem: An Extension to the Classic s-t Min-Cut Problem

Let $G$ be a weighted digraph, $s$ and $t$ be two vertices of $G$, and $t$ is reachable from $s$. The logical $s$-$t$ min-cut (LSTMC) problem states how $t$ can be made unreachable from $s$ by removal of some edges of $G$ where (a) the sum of weights of the removed edges is minimum and (b) all outgoing edges of any vertex of $G$ cannot be removed together. If we ignore the second constraint, ca...

S-T rack Stabilization of Heterotic de Sitter Vacua

We present a new mechanism, the S-T rack, to stabilize the volume modulus S in heterotic M-theory flux compactifications along with the orbifold-size T besides complex structure and vector bundle moduli stabilization. The key dynamical ingredient which makes the volume modulus stabilization possible, is M5-instantons arising from M5-branes wrapping the whole Calabi-Yau slice. These are natural ...
