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.

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).

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.

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."

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.

Feynman path-integral approach to the Aharonov-Bohm effect
The Aharonov-Bohm effect is investigated in the Feynman path-integral formulation of quantum mechanics. We consider an idealized situation with an electron moving in a magnetic-field-free region outside a solenoid whose radius to length ratio is very small. The nonvanishing vector potential term in the Lagrangian is written as an angular-velocity-dependent potential. In order to account for a singularity due to the presence of the solenoid itself, a periodic constraint is imposed on the path integral. The propagator can then be evaluated using the polar-coordinate methods of Peak and Inomata. It is found that the propagator has the general form $K({\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}}^{\ensuremath{'}\ensuremath{'}},{\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}}^{\ensuremath{'}};\ensuremath{\tau})=\ensuremath{\Sigma}{n}^{}{\ensuremath{\chi}}_{n}{K}_{n}({\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}}^{\ensuremath{'}\ensuremath{'}},{\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{\mathrm{r}}}^{\ensuremath{'}};\ensuremath{\tau})$ where the sum is taken over all classes of homotopic paths and the ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{n}$ are a one-dimensional representation of the homotopy group. This is the form of the propagator as conjectured by Schulman.

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.

Low-frequency radio observations of Seyfert galaxies: A test of the unification scheme
Aims. We present low-frequency radio imaging and spectral properties of a well defined sample of Seyfert galaxies using GMRT 240/610 MHz dual frequency observations. Radio spectra of Seyfert galaxies over 240 MHz to 5.0 GHz are investigated using 240 MHz, 610 MHz flux densities derived from GMRT, and 1.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz flux densities mainly from published VLA data. We test the predictions of Seyfert unification scheme by comparing the radio properties of Seyfert type 1s and type 2s. Methods. We choose a sample such that the two Seyfert subtypes have matched distributions in parameters that are independent to the orientation of AGN, obscuring torus and the host galaxy. Our sample selection criteria allow us to assume that the two Seyfert subtypes are intrinsically similar within the framework of the unification scheme. Results. The new observations at 240/610 MHz, together with archival observations at 1.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz show that type 1s and type 2s have statistically similar radio luminosity distributions at 240 MHz, 610 MHz, 1.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz. The spectral indices at selected frequency intervals as well as index measured over 240 MHz to 5.0 GHz for the two Seyfert subtypes have similar distributions with median spectral index $/sim$ -0.7, consistent with the synchrotron emission from optically thin plasma. In our snap-shot 240/610 MHz GMRT observations, most of the Seyfert galaxies show primarily an unresolved central radio component, except a few sources in which faint kpc-scale extended emission is apparent at 610 MHz. Our results on the statistical comparison of the multifrequency radio properties of our sample Seyfert galaxies are in agreement with the predictions of the Seyfert unification scheme.

Measurement of the penetration depth and coherence length in U(1) and SU(2) dual Abrikosov vortices
Abstract We calculate the electric field and the curl of the magnetic monopole current for U(1) and for SU(2) in the maximal Abelian gauge in the mid-plane between a quark antiquark pair. The results can be understood as a dual Abrikosov vortex in the Ginzburg-Landau theory.
