Large N and the Dine-Rajaraman problem
Abstract We compute the effective action for scattering of three well-separated extremal brane solutions, in 11d supergravity, with zero p − transfer and small transverse velocities. Using an interpretation of the conjecture of Maldacena, following Hyun, this can be viewed as the large N limit of the Matrix theory description of three supergraviton scattering at leading order. The result is consistent with the perturbative supergravity calculation.

BV Structure of the Cohomology of Nilpotent Subalgebras and the Geometry of(W) Strings
AbstractGiven a simple, simply laced, complex Lie algebra 
$$\mathfrak{g}$$
corresponding to the Lie group G, let 
$$\mathfrak{n}_ + $$
 be thesubalgebra generated by the positive roots. In this Letter we construct aBV algebra 
$${\text{BV}}[\mathfrak{g}]$$
 whose underlying graded commutative algebra is given by the cohomology, with respect to 
$$\mathfrak{n}_ + $$
, of the algebra of regular functions on G with values in 
$$ \wedge (\mathfrak{n}_ + \backslash \mathfrak{g})$$
. We conjecture that 
$${\text{BV}}[\mathfrak{g}]$$
 describes the algebra of allphysical (i.e., BRST invariant) operators of the noncritical 
$$\mathcal{W}[\mathfrak{g}]$$
string. The conjecture is verified in the two explicitly known cases,
$$\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}$$
2 (the Virasoro string) and 
$$\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}$$
3 (the 
$$\mathcal{W}_3 $$
 string).

Minimal models on Riemann surfaces
Abstract We extend the Coulomb gas representation of minimal model correlation functions to higher genius Riemann surfaces. Specifically, we incorporate the “BRS” structure of this representation into the operator formalism. This allows traces over the spectrum of a minimal model to be computed from traces over Fock spaces of a free scalar field. This our results are obtained by standard sewing techniques. The formulation is general, but we present here in particular the two-loop characters of the Ising model.

Covariant field theory of the compactified closed bosonic string
We covariantly first-quantize, via the BRST approach, the closed bosonic string compactified on a torus — in particular the 18-dimensional theory with E8 × E8 gauge bosons. Further, we give the corresponding free field theory. Thus the model is ready for the introduction of string interactions, and may be very useful for the study of gauge interactions in string theories.

Fusing the coordinates of quantum superspace
Abstract We introduce the notion of a fused quantum superplane by allowing for terms θθ ∼ x in the defining relations. We develop the differential calculus for a large class of fused quantum superplanes related to particular solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation.

Test of lepton universality using $B^{+}\rightarrow K^{+}\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ decays
A measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions of the $B^{+}\rightarrow K^{+}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ and $B^{+}\rightarrow K^{+}e^{+}e^{-}$ decays is presented using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$, recorded with the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 $\mathrm{\,Te\kern -0.1em V}$. The value of the ratio of branching fractions for the dilepton invariant mass squared range $1<q^{2}<6\mathrm{\,Ge\kern -0.1em V^2\!/}c^4$ is measured to be $0.745^{+0.090}_{-0.074}\mathrm{\,(stat)}\,\pm0.036\mathrm{\,(syst)}$. This value is the most precise measurement of the ratio of branching fractions to date and is compatible with the SM prediction within $2.6$ standard deviations.

Response functions for deep inelastic scattering from Ca-40
Deep inelastic electron scattering cross sections have been measured from /sup 40/Ca at energies between 100 and 375 MeV and at scattering angles of 90/sup 0/ and 140/sup 0/. Longitudinal and transverse response functions at three-vector momentum transfers of 330, 370, and 410 MeV/c were extracted from these data using a Rosenbluth separation. The integrated longitudinal response functions for the three momentum transfers are found to have, respectively, 65%, 75%, and 90% of the longitudinal strength predicted by the Fermi gas model.

Anti-Proton Source Beam Position System
The TeV I Beam Position Monitor (BPM) system is designed to provide a useful diagnostic tool during the commissioning and operational phases of the antiproton source. Simply stated the design goal is to provide single turn position information for intensities of > 1x10/sup 9/ particles, and multi-turn (clocked orbit) information for beam intensities of > 1x10/sup 7/ particles, both with sub-millimeter resolution. It is anticipated that the system will be used during commissioning for establishing the first turn through the Debuncher and Accumulator, for aligning injection orbits, for providing information necessary to correct closed orbits, and for measuring various machine parameters (e.g. tunes, dispersion, aperture, chromaticity). During normal antiproton operation the system will be used to monitor the beam position throughout the accumulation process.

Inelastic electron scattering from several Ca, Ti and Fe isotopes
Abstract : The differential cross sections for inelastic electron scattering from 40Ca, 42Ca, 44Ca, 46Ti, 48Ti, 50Ti, and 56Fe have been measured. The cross sections for the strangely excited positive 2, negative 3, positive 4, and negative 5 levels have been measured over a range of momentum transfer q of 0.4 - 2.6 (fm sup (-1)). The data have been fitted using two representations for the transition charge, (1) the hydrodynamic liquid drop, and (2) a phenomenological model. (Author)
