On the pair electromagnetic pulse of a black hole with electromagnetic structure
We study the relativistically expanding electron- positron pair plasma formed by the process of vacuum polar- ization around an electromagnetic black hole (EMBH). Such processes can occur for EMBH's with mass all the way up to 6 10 5 M. Beginning with a idealized model of a Reissner- Nordstrom EMBH with charge to mass ratio =0 :1, numerical hydrodynamic calculations are made to model the expansion of the pair-electromagnetic pulse (PEM pulse) to the point that the system is transparent to photons. Three idealized special rel- ativistic models have been compared and contrasted with the results of the numerically integrated general relativistic hydro- dynamic equations. One of the three models has been validated: a PEM pulse of constant thickness in the laboratory frame is shown to be in excellent agreement with results of the general relativistic hydrodynamic code. It is remarkable that this precise model, starting from the fundamental parameters of the EMBH, leads uniquely to the explicit evaluation of the parameters of the PEM pulse, including the energy spectrum and the astrophys- ically unprecedented large Lorentz factors (up to 6 10 3 for a 10 3 M EMBH). The observed photon energy at the peak of the photon spectrum at the moment of photon decoupling is shown to range from 0.1 MeV to 4 MeV as a function of the EMBH mass. Correspondingly the total energy in photons is in the range of 10 52 to 10 54 ergs, consistent with observed gamma-ray bursts. In these computations we neglect the pres- ence of baryonic matter which will be the subject of forthcoming publications.

The Dynamical Casimir Effect and Energetic Sources for Gamma Ray Bursts
On the analogy of the Casimir effect, we present an effect of quantum-field fluctuations, attributed to gravitational field coupling to the zero-point energy of virtual particles in the vacuum. In the process of black hole's formation, such an effect could cause tremendous energy release, possibly describing a scenario of energetic sources for observed gamma ray bursts.

PHASE-STRUCTURE OF THE SU(2)-SO(3) LATTICE SYSTEM IN AN IMPROVED VARIATIONAL APPROACH
An improved trial action in the variational approach of the lattice gauge field theory is in-troduced to acquire better lower bound for the convexity Inequality and used to calculate the phase structure of the SU(2)-SO(3) pure gauge system. The improvement is seen in comparing the old and new variational results with that by the Monte Carlo simulation.

On evolution of the pair-electromagnetic pulse of a charged black hole
Using hydrodynamic computer codes, we study the possible patterns of relativistic expansion of an enormous pair-electromagnetic-pulse (P.E.M. pulse); a hot, high density plasma composed of photons, electron-positron pairs and baryons deposited near a charged black hole (EMBH). On the bases of baryon-loading and energy conservation, we study the bulk Lorentz factor of expansion of the P.E.M. pulse by both numerical and analytical methods.

GRB 050315: A step toward the uniqueness of the overall GRB structure and the true nature of long GRBs
Using the Swift data of GRB 050315, we progress on the uniqueness of our theoretically predicted Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) structure as composed by a proper-GRB (P-GRB), emitted at the transparency of an electron-positron plasma with suitable baryon loading, and an afterglow comprising the so called "prompt emission" as due to external shocks. Thanks to the Swift observations, we can theoretically fit detailed light curves for selected energy bands on a continuous time scale ranging over 10^6 seconds. The theoretically predicted instantaneous spectral distribution over the entire afterglow confirms a clear hard-to-soft behavior encompassing, continuously, the "prompt emission" all the way to the latest phases of the afterglow. Consequences of the instrumental threshold on the definition of "short" and "long" GRBs are discussed.

Observation of a Near-Threshold Enhancement in the p-anti-p Mass Spectrum from Radiative J/psi --> gamma-p-anti-p Decays
We observe a narrow enhancement near 2m{sub p} in the invariant mass spectrum of p{bar p} pairs from radiative J/{psi} {yields} {gamma}p{bar p} decays. No similar structure is seen in J/{psi} {yields} {pi}{sup 0} p{bar p} decays. The results are based on an analysis of a 58 million event sample of J/{psi} decays accumulated with the BESII detector at the Beijing electron-positron collider. The enhancement can be fit with either an S- or P-wave Breit Wigner resonance function. In the case of the S-wave fit, the peak mass is below 2m{sup p} at M = 1859{sub -10}{sup +3} (stat){sub -25}{sup +5} (sys) MeV/c{sup 2} and the total width is {Lambda} < 30 MeV/c{sup 2} at the 90 percent confidence level. These mass and width values are not consistent with the properties of any known particle.

Search For Neutral Higgs Bosons From Supersymmetry In Z-decays
The light scalar Higgs boson h and the pseudoscalar Higgs boson A of the minimal supersymmetric standard model have been searched for in the processes e+e−→hff and e+e−→hA using data collected by ALEPH at the LEP e+e− collider, with center of mass energies at and near the Z peak. Using a variety of signatures adapted to various mass ranges for h and A, we have excluded a large domain in the parameter space. For large values of ν2ν1, the ratio of the vacuum expectation values of the two Higgs fields, the whole range from 0 to 38.8 GeV is excluded for Mh and MA at 95% CL.
