Hidden Yangians in 2D massive current algebras
We define non-local conserved currents in massive current algebras in two dimensions. Our approach is algebraic and non-perturbative. The non-local currents give a quantum field realization of the Yangians. We show how the noncocommutativity of the Yangians is related to the non-locality of the currents. We discuss the implications of the existence of non-local conserved charges on theS-matrices.

Logarithmic Yangians in WZW Models
A new action of the Yangians in the WZW models is displayed. Its structure is generic and level-independent. This Yangian is the natural extension at the conformal point of the one unraveled in massive theories with current algebras. Hopefully, this new symmetry of WZW models will lead to a deeper understanding of the integrable structure of conformal field theories and their deformations.

Anomalous scaling in the N-point functions of a passive scalar.
A recent analysis of the 4-point correlation function of the passive scalar advected by a time-decorrelated random flow is extended to the N-point case. It is shown that all stationary-state inertial-range correlations are dominated by homogeneous zero modes of singular operators describing their evolution. We compute analytically the zero modes governing the N-point structure functions and the anomalous dimensions corresponding to them to the linear order in the scaling exponent of the 2-point function of the advecting velocity field. The implications of these calculations for the dissipation correlations are discussed.

Spin-Charge Separation and the Spin Quantum Hall Effect
We use quantum field theory methods to study the network model for the spin quantum hall transition. When the couplings are fine tuned in a certain way, the spin and charge degrees of freedom, corresponding to the su-percurrent algebras su(2) 0 and osp(2|2) −2 respectively, completely decouple. This simpler theory is exactly solvable and some critical exponents are computed and shown to agree with the recent predictions based on percolation. The general network model is shown to be in a different universality class by identifying the attractive direction of the renormalization group flow.

ON THE POTENTIAL OF LIGHT-BY-LIGHT SCATTERING FOR INVISIBLE AXION DETECTION
Abstract An experimental program is in progress, searching for possible non QED signals in elastic photon-photon scattering in the optical domain[1]. We examine here the potential of this process for the detection of a possible light pseudoscalar such as the axion.

Recent Results on the Beat-Wave Acceleration Experiment with Nd Lasers at Ecole Polytechnique
We describe an experiment aimed to accelerate particles with a beat-wave generated in a Dz plasma by two NdYAG and Nd-YLF laser wavelengths. The 3 MeV incident electrons are produced by a Van de Graaff accelerator. The electron and laser beams are aligned with an optical transition radiator. The accelerated particles are analysed by a magnetic spectrograph and detected by an array of scintillatom and photomultipliers. Preliminary results show a clear signal of a few hundred electrons accelerated to about 3.4 MeV.

Experimental study of electron acceleration by plasma beat-waves with Nd lasers
We have observed the acceleration of electrons by a beat-wave generated in a deuterium plasma by two Nd-YAG and Nd-YLF laser wavelengths. Electrons injected at an energy of 3.3 MeV are observed to be accelerated up to 4.7 MeV after the plasma. The energy gain is compatible with a peak electric field of the order of 1.2 GV/m. The experiment has been performed with different injection energies, from 2.5 to 3.3 MeV, with different plasma dimensions, and with different laser intensities.
