Niobium films typically constitute a significant component in the construction of modern two-dimensional superconducting qubit architectures, yet their contribution to the total decay rate is not ...

The existing phenomenological theory of superconductivity is unsatisfactory since it does not allow us to determine the surface tension at the boundary between the normal and the superconducting ...

This manual is a practical guide for the use of our general-purpose Monte Carlo code MCNP. The first chapter is a primer for the novice user. The second chapter describes the mathematics, data, ...

The following statement is proved: the counterterm for an arbitrary 4-loop Feynman diagram in an arbitrary model is calculable within the minimal subtraction scheme in terms of rational numbers and ...

The SO(8) supergravity action is constructed in closed form. A local SU(8) group as well as the exceptional group E 7 are invariances of the equations of motion and of a new first order lagrangian.

This 2004 textbook fills a gap in the literature on general relativity by providing the advanced student with practical tools for the computation of many physically interesting quantities. The context ...

Within the Weinberg model mass differences between members of a multiplet generate further mass differences between the neutral and charged vector bosons. The experimental situation on the Weinberg ...

The Kadanoff theory of scaling near the critical point for an Ising ferromagnet is cast in differential form. The resulting differential equations are an example of the differential equations of the ...

The production of axions in the early universe is studied. Axion models which break the U(1) PQ symmetry above 10 12 GeV are found to produce an unacceptably large axion energy density.
