Inclusive Aand Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering at Cebaf at Higher Energies

We summarize the discussion on the possibilities of doing inclusive and semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering experiments at CEBAF with beam energy of the order of 10 GeV.

Comment on "Safe Testing" by Grünwald, de Heide, and Koolen

This comment briefly reflects on "Safe Testing" by Gr\"{u}wald et al. (2024). The safety of fractional Bayes factors (O'Hagan, 1995) is illustrated and compared to (safe) Bayes factors based on the right Haar prior.

Kotzinian-Mulders effect in semi-inclusive DIS within TMD factorization

In this paper we study the Kotzinian-Mulders effect of a single hadron production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) within the framework of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) factorization. The asymmetry is contributed by the convolution of the Kotzinian-Mulders function $g_{1T}$ and the unpolarized fragmentation function $D_1$. As a TMD distribution, the Kotzinian-Mulders function in the coordinate space in the perturbative region can be represented as the convolution of the $C$-coefficients and the corresponding collinear correlation function. The Wandzura-Wilczek approximation is used to obtain this correlation function. We perform a detailed phenomenological numerical analysis of the Kotzinian-Mulders effect in the SIDIS process within TMD factorization at the kinematics of the HERMES and COMPASS measurements. It is found that the obtained $x_B$-, $z_h$- and $P_{h\perp}$-dependent Kotzinian-Mulders effect are basically consistent with the HERMES and COMPASS measurements.

An overview of dynamical models for outflows in BALQSOs and Seyferts

This paper reviews the dynamical models that have been proposed for the outflows that are responsible for the broad blue-shifted absorption features observed in broad absorption line quasars and in some Seyfert galaxies.

On Curvature-Squared Corrections for D-brane Actions

Curvature-squared corrections for D-brane actions in type II string theory were derived by Bachas, Bain and Green. Here we write down a generalisation of these corrections to all orders in $F$, the field strength of the U(1) gauge field on the brane. Some of these terms are needed to restore consistency with T-duality.

Five-Dimensional Gauge Theories and Unitary Matrix Models

The matrix model computations of effective superpotential terms in N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions have been proposed to apply more generally to gauge theories in higher dimensions. We discuss aspects of five-dimensional gauge theory compactified on a circle, which leads to a unitary matrix model.

Geometry of Particle Physics

We explain how to construct a large class of new quiver gauge theories from branes at singularities by orientifolding and Higgsing old examples. The new models include the MSSM, decoupled from gravity, as well as some classic models of dynamical SUSY breaking. We also discuss topological criteria for unification.

Cell Swelling by Osmosis: a Variational Approach

A very simple model for cell swelling by osmosis is introduced, resulting in a parabolic free boundary problem. In case of radially symmetric initial conditions, it is shown that the model can be viewed as a gradient flow involving entropy, surface area and the Wasserstein metric. This observation is used to construct solutions and explain the presence and nature of osmosis.

Graph products of operator algebras

Graph products for groups were defined by Green in her thesis as a generalization of both Cartesian and free products. In this paper we define the corresponding graph product for reduced and maximal C*-algebras, von Neumann algebras and quantum groups. We prove stability properties including permanence properties of II_1-factors, the Haagerup property, exactness and under suitable conditions the property of Rapid Decay for quantum groups.

On the Role of Cylindrical Functions in Kantorovich duality

We study the dual formulation of the Monge-Kantorovich optimal transportation problem, in particular under what circumstances it is permitted in an infinite dimensional setting to use cylindrical functions, i.e. functions of the form $\varphi\circ P$ where $P$ is a finite-rank operator and $\varphi$ is a smooth, compactly supported function. In the last section, some examples of applications are presented.
