Induced Chern-Simons terms
We examine the claim that the effective action of four-dimensional SU(2)_L gauge theory at high and low temperature contains a three-dimensional Chern-Simons term with coefficient being the chemical potential for baryon number. We perform calculations in a two-dimensional toy model and find that the existence of the term is rather subtle.

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.

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.

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).

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.

Measurement of the Z+b-jet cross-section in pp collisions at s$$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 7 TeV in the forward region
A bstractThe associated production of a Z boson or an off-shell photon γ* with a bottom quark in the forward region is studied using proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The Z bosons are reconstructed in the Z/γ* → μ+μ− final state from muons with a transverse momentum larger than 20 GeV, while two transverse momentum thresholds are considered for jets (10 GeV and 20 GeV). Both muons and jets are reconstructed in the pseudorapidity range 2.0 < η < 4.5. The results are based on data corresponding to 1.0 fb−1 recorded in 2011 with the LHCb detector. The measurement of the Z+b-jet cross-section is normalized to the Z+jet cross-section. The measured cross-sections are

Very High Precision Current Regulated Power Supplies for the Fermilab Antiproton Source
These Power Supplies were designed to power the accumulator and debuncher storage rings at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory Antiproton Source. The accumulator and debuncher are both large acceptance 8 GeV storage rings. The accumulator ring has the most stringent requirements since it will be required to store beams for periods in excess of twenty four (24) hours. In order to ensure long term beam stability, resonances up to order eleven (11) must be avoided. Because of this stringent tuned stability requirement, the power supplies which power the three main quadrupole and the main dipole busses must be extremely stable. Thus the current regulation specification for these power supplies is 10 PPM (0.001%) including differential and common mode ripple, long term drift, and line and load regulation.

Excitation of low lying natural parity levels in /sup 208/Pb by inelastic electron scattering
High resolution electron scattering measurements on /sup 208/Pb have been performed at 90/sup 0/ and 160/sup 0/ which allow the spatial reconstruction of transition charge densities and for the first time, transition current densities. The measurement covering the momentum transfer range of 0.5
