UTEXAS - HEP - 97 - 18 The Geometry of SU ( 3 )
نویسنده
چکیده
The group SU(3) is parameterized in terms of generalized “Euler angles”. The differential operators of SU(3) corresponding to the Lie Algebra elements are obtained, the invariant forms are found, the group invariant volume element is found, and some relevant comments about the geometry of the group manifold are made.

The adiabatic geometric phases for general three state systems are discussed. An explicit parameterization for space of states of these systems is given. The abelian and non-abelian connection one-forms or vector potentials that would appear in a three dimensional quantum system with adiabatic characteristics are given explicitly. This is done in terms of the Euler angle parameterization of SU(...
متن کاملOrientifolds of SU (2)/U (1) WZW Models
The orientifolds of SU(2)/U(1) gauged WZW models are investigated. Recently, the D-branes in SU(2)/U(1) WZW models were investigated by Maldacena, Moore and Seiberg and they determined the geometry of the branes. They also constructed new types of D-branes other than so called Cardy type branes. In this paper we identify the geometry of the orientifolds and construct new types of orientifolds b...
متن کاملDo Hep Neutrinos Aaect the Solar Neutrino Energy Spectrum ?
If the low energy cross section for 3 He + p ! 4 He + e + + e , thèhep' reaction, is > 20 times larger than the best (but uncertain) theoretical estimates, then this reaction could signiicantly innuence the electron energy spectrum produced by solar neu-trino interactions and measured in the SuperKamiokande, SNO, and ICARUS experiments. We compare predicted energy spectra for diierent assumed h...

Wormholes have been advanced as both a method for circumventing the limitations of the speed of light as well as a means for building a time machine (to travel to the past). Thus it is argued that General Relativity may allow both of these possibilities. In this note I argue that traversable wormholes connecting otherwise causally disconnected regions, violate two of the most fundamental princi...

Fermion compositeness and other new physics can be signalled by the presence of a strong four-fermion contact interaction. Here we present a study of llqq and llll contact interactions using the reactions: ll → ll, bb̄, cc̄ at future ee linear colliders with √s = 0.5− 5 TeV and μμ colliders with √ s = 0.5, 4 TeV. We find that very large compositeness scales can be probed at these machines and tha...
