Conformally invariant field theories in two dimensions and corresponding statistical mechanical models
Belavin, Zamlodochikov and Polyakov have recently proposed a class of conformally invariant field theories in two dimension with exactly determined rational critical indices. We establish a tentative identification of a subset of these theories in terms of the O(n) model and theq-state Potts model in 2-dimensions for appropriaten andq.

JOINT PROBABILITIES REPRODUCING THREE EPR EXPERIMENTS ON TWO QUBITS
An eight-parameter family of the most general non-negative quadruple probabilities is constructed for EPR–Bohm–Aharonov experiments when only three pairs of analyser settings are used. It is a simultaneous representation of three different Bohr-incompatible experimental configurations involving mutually noncommuting observables valid for arbitrary quantum states.

psi particles, SU(4), and anomalous currents
We propose assignment of the new ψ particles in an SU(4) symmetry scheme, incorporating SU(3) and a new additive quantum number, paracharge Z. Anomalous currents are introduced to account for the production and decays of these particles. Two more rather broad resonances at around 4.3 and 5.0 (±0.2) GeV are expected in the e + e - annihilation, one of which has recently been reported (at 4.15 GeV).

Quantum violation of stochastic noncontextual hidden-variable theories.
We formulate stochastic noncontextual hidden-variable theories. In such theories the hidden state λ specifies not definite values, but expectation values A − (λ), ... of observables A, ... and noncontextuality means that A − (λ) is independent of which other commuting observables commuting with A are measured together with A. We show via Bell inequalities that such theories conflict with quantum theory and propose a two-photon experimental test. We also show that for a single particle of spin (2 n −1)/2, quantum violation of classical noncontextuality grows exponentially with n.

Unitarity upper bound on the absorptive parts of elastic scattering amplitudes
We derive a unitarity upper bound on the absorptive part A(s, t) of the elastic-scattering amplitude in the physical region. In the diffraction peak region the bound on A(s, t)/A(s, 0) is a function only of the parameter σ tot 2 (−t)/4πσ el . Assuming the diffraction scattering to be purely absorptive and spin independent we find the pp, pp, and π ± p data to lie a little below the theoretical upper bound. Further the experimental curve of X(t)/X(0) vs −4tX(0)/σ el , where X(t)≡dσ/dt, seems "universal."

Bianchi Type-I Cosmological Model Filled with Viscous Fluid in a Modified Brans-Dicke Cosmology
Adding the cosmological term, which is assumed to be variable in Brans-Dicke theory we have discussed about a Bianchi type-I cosmological model filled with viscous fluid with free gravitational field of Petrov type-D. The effect of viscousity on various kinematical parameters has been discussed. Finally, this model has been transformed to the original form (1961) of Brans-Dicke theory including a variable cosmological term.

A new class of Inhomogeneous string cosmological models in general relativity
Abstract
A new class of solutions of Einstein field equations has been investigated for inhomogeneous cylindrically symmetric space-time with string source. To get the deterministic solution, it has been assumed that the expansion (θ) in the model is proportional to the eigen value σ1  1 of the shear tensor σi  j. Certain physical and geometric properties of the models are also discussed.

Low-energy neutrino and dark matter physics with sub-keV germanium detectors
The TEXONO-CDEX Collaboration (Taiwan experiment on neutrino–China dark matter experiment) explores high-purity germanium (HPGe) detection technology to develop a sub-keV threshold detector for pursuing studies on low mass weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), properties of neutrino and the possibilities of neutrino-nucleus coherent scattering observation. This article will introduce the facilities of newly established China Jing-Ping Underground Laboratory (CJPL), preliminary result of cosmic ray background studies at CJPL, the dark matter studies pursued at Kuo-Sheng Neutrino Laboratory (KSNL) and research efforts to accomplish our physics goals.

Study of Radioactive Impurities in Neutron Transmutation Doped Germanium
A program to develop low temperature (mK) sensors with neutron transmutation doped Ge for rare event studies with a cryogenic bolometer has been initiated. For this purpose, semiconductor grade Ge wafers are irradiated with thermal neutron flux from Dhruva reactor at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), Mumbai. Spectroscopic studies of irradiated samples have revealed that the environment of the capsule used for irradiating the sample leads to significant levels of 65 Zn, 110m Ag and 182 Ta impurities, which can be reduced by chemical etching of approximately � 50 µm thick surface layer. From measurements of the etched samples in the low background counting setup, activity due to trace impurities of 123 Sb in bulk Ge is estimated to be � 1 Bq/g after irradiation. These estimates indicate that in order to use the NTD Ge sensors for rare event studies, a cooldown period of � 2 years would be necessary to reduce the radioactive background to � 1 mBq/g.

Probing Radio Emission in Seyfert Galaxies on Parsec- and Kiloparsec-scales
Seyfert galaxies have traditionally been classified as radio-quiet active galactic nuclei. A proper consideration of the nuclear optical emission however proves that a majority of Seyferts are radio-loud. Kpc-scale radio lobes/bubbles are in fact revealed in sensitive observations at low radio frequencies of several Seyferts. Through the use of very long baseline interferometry, we have been able to determine the direction of the parsec-scale jets in some of these Seyfert galaxies. The misalignment between the parsec-scale jets and the kpc-scale lobes that is typically observed, is either suggestive of no connection between the two, or the presence of curved jets that power the radio lobes. In this context, we briefly discuss our new low radio frequency GMRT observations of two Seyfert galaxies with lobes.
