The dynamic behavior of quantum statistical entropy in 5D Ricci-flat black string with thin-layer approach
Abstract In this Letter, the statistical–mechanical entropies of 5D Ricci-flat black string is calculated through the wave modes of the quantum field with improved thin-layer brick-wall method. The modes along the fifth dimension are semi-classically quantized by Randall–Sundrum mass relationship. We use the two-dimensional area to describe this black string's entropy which, in the small-mass approximation, is a linear sum of the area of the black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon. The proportionality coefficients of entropy are discretized with quantized extra dimensional modes. It should be noted that the small-mass approximation used in our calculation is naturally justified by the assumption that the two branes are located far apart.

Exploring Extra Dimensions in Spectroscopy Experiments
We propose an idea in spectroscopy to search for extra spatial dimensions as well as to detect the possible deviation from Newton's inverse-square law at small scale, and we take high-Z hydrogenic systems and muonic atoms as illustrations. The relevant experiments might help to explore more than two extra dimensions scenario in ADD's brane world model and to set constraints for fundamental parameters such as the size of extra dimensions.

Correspondence Between DGP Brane Cosmology and $5D$ Ricci-flat Cosmology
We discuss the correspondence between the DGP brane cosmology and 5D Ricci-flat cosmology by letting their metrics equal each other. By this correspondence, a specific geometrical property of the arbitrary integral constant I in DGP metric is given and it is related to the curvature of 5D bulk. At the same time, the relation of arbitrary functions μ and ν in a class of Ricci-flat solutions is obtained from DGP brane metric.

The Numerical Solution of Scalar Field for Nariai Case in 5D Ricci-flat SdS Black String Space with Polynomial Approximation
As one exact candidate of the higher dimensional black hole, the 5D Ricci-flat Schwarzschild-de Sitter black string space presents something interesting. In this paper, we give a numerical solution to the real scalar field around the Nariai black hole by the polynomial approximation. Unlike the previous tangent approximation, this fitting function makes a perfect match in the leading intermediate region and gives a good description near both the event and the cosmological horizons. We can read from our results that the wave is close to a harmonic one with the tortoise coordinate. Furthermore, with the actual radial coordinate the waves pile up almost equally near the both horizons.

PARTICLE MASSES IN KALUZA–KLEIN–GORDON THEORY AND THE REALITY OF EXTRA DIMENSIONS
To see how the effective 4-D mass of a particle is affected by the geometry of an ND space, we take the Klein–Gordon equation in 5-D and evaluate it in 4-D using two exact solutions of 5-D Kaluza–Klein theory. The mass (squared) turns out to be complex if the theory is independent of the extra coordinate, but can be made real if the wave function depends on an extra dimension which is physical. These results have significant implications for 10-D superstring theory.

Radiating sources in higher-dimensional gravity
We study a time-dependent five-dimensional (5D) metric which contains a static four-dimensional (4D) sub-metric whose three-dimensional (3D) part is spherically symmetric. An expansion in the metric coefficient allow us to obtain close-to Schwarzschild approximation to a class of spherically symmetric solutions. Using Campbell’s embedding theorem and the induced-matter formalism we obtain two 4D solutions. One describes a source with the stiff equation of state believed to be applicable to dense astrophysical objects, and the other describes a spherical source with a radial heat flow.

f (R) Theories of supergravities and pseudo-supergravities
A bstractWe present f (R) theories of ten-dimensional supergravities, up to and including the quadratic order in fermion fields in action. They are obtained by performing the conformal scaling on the usual supergravities to the f (R) frame in which the dilaton becomes an auxiliary field and can be integrated out. The f (R) frame coincides with that of M-theory, D2-branes or NS-NS 5-branes. We study various BPS p-brane solutions and their near-horizon AdS × sphere geometries in the context of the f (R) theories. We find that new solutions emerge with global structures that do not exist in the corresponding solutions of the original supergravity description. In lower dimensions, We construct the f (R) theory of $\mathcal{N} = 2$, D = 5 gauged supergravity with a vector multiplet, and that for the four-dimensional U(1)4 gauged theory with three vector fields set equal. We find that some previously-known BPS singular “superstars” become wormholes in the f (R) theories. We also construct a large class of f (R) (gauged) pseudo-supergravities. In addition we show that the breathing mode in the Kaluza-Klein reduction of Gauss-Bonnet gravity on S1 is an auxiliary field and can be integrated out.

Closed strings from decaying D-branes
We compute the emission of closed string radiation from homogeneous rolling tachyons. For an unstable decaying Dp-brane the radiated energy is infinite to leading order for p ≤ 2 and finite for 2$>p > 2. The closed string state produced by a decaying brane is closely related to the state produced by D-instantons at a critical Euclidean distance from t = 0. In the case of a D0 brane one can cutoff this divergence so that we get a finite energy final state which would be the state that the brane decays into.

Evidence of s-channel Single Top Quark Production in Events with one Charged Lepton and Bottom Quark Jets at CDF
We report an evidence of \textit{s}-channel single top quark production in $p\bar{p}$ collision at $\sqrt{s}= 1.96 \mathrm{TeV}$ using data with integrated luminosity of $9.4 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). We select events with one charged lepton, large missing transverse energy and two bottom quark jets. The observed significance of the result is 3.8 standard deviation from background only prediction. We measure the inclusive cross section to be $1.41^{+0.44}_{-0.42}\mathrm{(stat+syst)} \mathrm{pb}$ assuming $m_t = 172.5 \mathrm{GeV}/c^2$.

Stretched strings in noncommutative field theory
Motivated by recent discussions of IR-UV mixing in noncommutative field theories, we perform a detailed analysis of the nonplanar amplitudes of the bosonic open string in the presence of an external B field at the one-loop level. We carefully isolate, at the string theory level, the contribution which is responsible for the IR-UV behavior in the field theory limit. We show that it is a pure open string effect by deriving it from the factorization of the one-loop amplitude into the disk amplitudes of intermediate open string insertions. We suggest that it is natural to understand IR-UV mixing as the creation of intermediate ''stretched strings.'' (c) 2000 The American Physical Society.

Fermi surfaces and analytic Green’s functions from conformal gravity
A bstractWe construct T2-symmetric charged AdS black holes in conformal gravity. The most general solution up to an overall conformal factor contains three non-trivial parameters: the mass, electric charge and a quantity that can be identified as the massive spin-2 hair. We study the Dirac equation for the charged massless spinor in this background. The equation can be solved in terms of the general Heun’s function for generic frequency ω and wave number k. This allows us to obtain the analytic Green’s function G(ω, k) for both extremal and non-extremal black holes. For some special choice of back hole parameters, we find that the Green’s function reduces to simpler hypergeometric or confluent hypergeometric functions. We study the Fermi surfaces associated with the poles of the Green’s function with vanishing ω. We find examples where the Fermi surfaces for non-Fermi liquids as well as the characteristic Fermi ones can arise. We illustrate the non-trivial differences in the Green’s function and Fermi surfaces between the extremal and non-extremal black holes.
