It is proved that (a) the solutions of the ideal magnetohydrodynamic equation, which describe the equlibrium states of a cylindrical plasma with purely poloidal flow and arbitrary cross sectional shape [G. N. Throumoulopoulos and G. Pantis, Plasma Phys. and Contr. Fusion 38, 1817 (1996)] are also valid for incompressible equlibrium flows with the axial velocity component being a free surface qu...

Reflective equilibrium (RE) is often regarded as a powerful method in ethics, logic, and even philosophy general. Despite this popularity, characterizations of the have been fairly vague unspecific so far. It thus may be doubted whether RE more than jumble appealing but ultimately sketchy ideas that cannot spelled out consistently. In paper, we dispel such doubts by devising formal model RE. Th...

Relativistic heavy ion collisions have been extensively investigated to determine the equation-of-state (eos) of nuclear matter using phenomenological e ective elds of the non-relativistic Skyrme or the relativistic Walecka type. It is found generally that a soft eos with momentum dependence can decribe much of the data in the SIS energy range. It is, however, of fundamental interest to test al...

Steven Weinberg, a visionary and audacious light who forever changed our understanding of the universe, died on 23 July 2021 in Austin, Texas.

We introduce a growth model for entropically stabilized quasicrystals. The dominating feature of this model is a fluctuating growth front which enables growth near equlibrium with small phason components. We summarize the results obtained for 2D and give a first presentation of 3D calculations.

Connes' gauge theory is defined on noncommutative space-times. It is applied to formulate a noncommutative Glashow-Weinberg-Salam (GWS) model in the leptonic sector. It is shown that the model has two Higgs doublets and the gauge bosons sector after the Higgs mechanism contains the massive charged gauge fields, two massless and two massive neutral gauge fields. It is also shown that, in the tre...
