The sine-Gordon solitons as an N-body problem
Abstract We consider the N -soliton solutions in the sine-Gordon model as an N -body problem. This leads to a relativistic generalization of the Calogero model first introduced by Ruijsenaars. We show that the fundamental Poisson bracket of the Lax matrix is quadratic, and the r -matrix is a dynamical one. This is in contrast to the Calogero model where the fundamental Poisson bracket of the Lax matrix is linear.

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.

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.

On triple focusing dipole magnets
Abstract We present a general, paraxial study of triple focusing (i.e., stigmatic and non-dispersive) index-free dipole magnets. The transcendental equations which describe such magnets lead to a second-degree polynomial equation which we solve analytically. The two solutions of this equation correspond to magnets having either one or no intermediate focal points in the vertical direction. The first-order optical properties of the physical solutions are studied.

Measurement of branching fractions and search for CP-violating charge asymmetries in charmless two-body B decays into pions and kaons.
We present measurements, based on a sample of approximately 23x10(6) BB pairs, of the branching fractions and a search for CP-violating charge asymmetries in charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into two-body final states of kaons and pions. We find the branching fractions B(B0-->pi(+)pi(-)) = (4.1+/-1.0+/-0.7)x10(-6), B(B0-->K+pi(-)) = (16.7+/-1.6+/-1.3)x10(-6), B(B+-->K+pi(0)) = (10.8(+2.1)(-1.9)+/-1.0)x10(-6), B(B+-->K0pi(+)) = (18.2(+3.3)(-3.0)+/-2.0)x10(-6), B(B0-->K0pi(0)) = (8.2(+3.1)(-2.7)+/-1.2)x10(-6). We also report 90% confidence level upper limits for B meson decays to the pi(+)pi(0), K+K-, and K0K+ final states. In addition, charge asymmetries have been found to be consistent with zero, where the statistical precision is in the range of +/-0.10 to +/-0.18, depending on the decay mode.

A measurement of CP-violation parameters in B0 anti-B0 mixing using partially reconstructed D*- l+ nu/l events at BaBar
CP violation in B0B0bar mixing is characterized by the value of the parameter |q/p| being different from 1, and the Standard Model predicts this difference to be smaller than 10^{-3}. We present a measurement of this parameter using a partial reconstruction of one of the B mesons in the semileptonic channel D*- l+ nu_l, where only the hard lepton and the soft pion from the D*- --> D0bar pi- decay are reconstructed. The flavor of the other B is determined by means of lepton tagging. The determination of |q/p| is then performed with a fit to the proper time difference of the two B decays. We use a luminosity of 200.8 fb^-1, collected at the Y(4S) resonance by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetrical-energy e+e- collider, in the period 1999-2004. We obtain the preliminary result: |q/p| - 1 = (6.5 +/- 3.4(stat.) +/- 2.0(syst.)) x 10^{-3}

Simultaneous Measurement of the $B^0$ Meson Lifetime and Mixing Frequency with $B^0 \rightarrow D^{*-}\ell^+\nu_\ell$ Decays
We measure the B0 lifetime tau_B0 and the B-Bbar oscillation frequency Deltam_d with a sample of approximately 14,000 exclusively reconstructed B0 -> D*- l+ nu_l signal events, selected from 23 million B-Bbar pairs recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The b-quark flavor of the other B at the time of decay and its decay position are determined inclusively. The lifetime and oscillation frequency are measured simultaneously with an unbinned maximum-likelihood fit that uses, for each event, the measured difference in B decay times (Delta-t), the calculated uncertainty on Delta-t, the signal and background probabilities, and b-quark tagging information for the other B. The preliminary results are tau_B0 = (1.523 +0.024 -0.023 (stat) +/- 0.022 (syst)) ps and Deltam_d = (0.492 +/- 0.018 (stat) +/- 0.013 (syst)) ps^-1. The statistical correlation coefficient between tau_B0 and Deltam_d is -0.22.
