FOCK BUNDLES AND QUANTIZATION OF SYSTEMS WITH FIRST CLASS CONSTRAINTS
The flat phase space (R2n, ω) with a symmetry group G generated by quadratic first class constraints is considered. We analyze the quantization of this constrained system in terms of the Fock bundle , where S=Sp(2n, R)/U(n) is the space of positive translationally invariant complex structures J on (R2n, ω) and fibers HJ are the Hilbert spaces of quantization associated with the space (R2n, ω, J).

Solving string field equations: new uses for old tools
It is argued that the (NS-sector) superstring field equations are integrable, i.e. their solutions are obtainable from linear equations. We adapt the 25-year-old solution-generating “dressing” method and reduce the construction of nonperturbative superstring configurations to a specific cohomology problem. The application to vacuum superstring field theory is outlined.

On nonperturbative solutions of superstring field theory
Abstract Nonperturbative solutions to the nonlinear field equations in the NS sector of cubic as well as nonpolynomial superstring field theory can be obtained from a linear equation which includes a “spectral” parameter λ and a coboundary operator Q ( λ ). We borrow a simple ansatz from the dressing method (for generating solitons in integrable field theories) and show that classical superstring fields can be constructed from any string field  T subject merely to Q ( λ ) T =0. Following the decay of the non-BPS D9 brane in IIA theory and shifting the background to the tachyon vacuum, we repeat the arguments in vacuum superstring field theory and outline how to compute classical solutions explicitly.

Noncommutative instantons in higher dimensions, vortices and topological K-cycles
We construct explicit BPS and non-BPS solutions of the U(2k) Yang-Mills equations on the noncommutative space 2nθ × S2 with finite energy and topological charge. By twisting with a Dirac multi-monopole bundle over S2, we reduce the Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau equations on 2nθ × S2 to vortex-type equations for a pair of U(k) gauge fields and a bi-fundamental scalar field on 2nθ. In the SO(3)-invariant case the vortices on 2nθ determine multi-instantons on 2nθ × S2. We show that these solutions give natural physical realizations of Bott periodicity and vector bundle modification in topological K-homology, and can be interpreted as a blowing-up of D0-branes on 2nθ into spherical D2-branes on 2nθ × S2. In the generic case with broken rotational symmetry, we argue that the D0-brane charges on 2nθ × S2 provide a physical interpretation of the Adams operations in K-theory.

Fundamental chiral strings
The problem of the non-uniqueness of the string theory in the space Rd-1,1 with d ≤ 10 and the procedure of the compactification and the deompactification are discussed. We consider a compact bosonic string defined as a closed string moving in the Lorentizian torus T25,1 and introduce fundamental chiral bosonic string (FCBS) as a universal cover of a compact string. It is shown that the Fock spaces of any standard strings are embedded into the Fock space of FCBS.

Search for the associated production of a b quark and a neutral supersymmetric Higgs boson that decays into tau pairs.
We report results from a search for production of a neutral Higgs boson in association with a b quark. We search for Higgs decays to tau pairs with one tau subsequently decaying to a muon and the other to hadrons. The data correspond to 2.7 fb(-1) of pp collisions recorded by the D0 detector at square root(s)=1.96 TeV. The data are found to be consistent with background predictions. The result allows us to exclude a significant region of parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric model.

Measurement of the differential cross section $d\sigma/dt$ in elastic $p\bar{p}$ scattering at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV
We present a measurement of the elastic differential cross section $d\sigma(p\bar{p}\rightarrow p\bar{p})/dt$ as a function of the four-momentum-transfer squared t. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $\approx 31 nb^{-1}$ collected with the D0 detector using dedicated Tevatron $p\bar{p} $ Collider operating conditions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV and covers the range $0.26 <|t|< 1.2 GeV^2$. For $|t|<0.6 GeV^2$, d\sigma/dt is described by an exponential function of the form $Ae^{-b|t|}$ with a slope parameter $ b = 16.86 \pm 0.10(stat) \pm 0.20(syst) GeV^{-2}$. A change in slope is observed at $|t| \approx 0.6 GeV^2$, followed by a more gradual |t| dependence with increasing values of |t|.

A Study of the eta pi0 spectrum and search for a J**(PC) = 1-+ exotic meson
A partial wave analysis (PWA) of the of the $\eta \pi ^0$ system (where $\eta \to \gamma \gamma$) produced in the charge exchange reaction $\pi ^-p\to \eta \pi ^0n$ at an incident momentum of 18 GeV$/c$ is presented as a function of ${\eta \pi ^0}$ invariant mass, $m_{\eta\pi^0}$, and momentum transfer squared, $t_{\pi^{-}\to\eta\pi}$, from the incident $\pi^-$ to the outgoing ${\eta\pi ^0}$ system. $S$, $P$ and $D$ waves were included in the PWA. The $a_0(980)$ and $a_2(1320)$ states are clearly observed in the overall ${\eta\pi ^0}$ effective mass distribution as well as in the amplitudes associated with $S$ wave and $D$ waves respectively after partial wave decomposition. The observed distributions in moments (averages of spherical harmonics) were compared to the results from the PWA and the two are consistent. The distribution in $t_{\pi^{-}\to\eta\pi}$ for individual $D$ waves associated with natural and unnatural parity exchange in the $t$-channel are consistent with Regge phenomenology. Of particular interest in this study is the $P$ wave since this leads to an exotic $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ for the $\eta \pi$ system. A $P$ wave is present in the data, however attempts to describe the mass dependence of the amplitude and phase motion with respect to the $D$ wave as a Breit-Wigner resonance are problematic. This has implications regarding the existence of a reported exotic $J^{PC} = 1^{-+}$ meson decaying into $\eta \pi^0$ with a mass near 1.4 GeV$/c^2$.

Model-independent measurement of the W-boson helicity in top-quark decays at D0.
We present the first model-independent measurement of the helicity of W bosons produced in top quark decays, based on a 1 fb(-1) sample of candidate tt events in the dilepton and lepton plus jets channels collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron pp Collider. We reconstruct the angle theta(*) between the momenta of the down-type fermion and the top quark in the W boson rest frame for each top quark decay. A fit of the resulting costheta(*) distribution finds that the fraction of longitudinal W bosons f(0)=0.425+/-0.166(stat)+/-0.102(syst) and the fraction of right-handed W bosons f(+)=0.119+/-0.090(stat)+/-0.053(syst), which is consistent at the 30% C.L. with the standard model.

Experimental evidence for hadroproduction of exotic mesons
New measurements of peripheral meson production are presented. The data confirm the existence of exotic mesons at 1.4 and 1.6 GeV/c2. The latter state dominates the eta'pi- decay spectrum. The data on eta pi+pi-pi- decay show large strength in several exotic (Jpc = 1- +) waves as well.
