We adopt a $t_1-t_2-t_3-J-G$ model for explanation of $x=1/8$ anomaly in La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ family compound. The calculated charge susceptibility shows a maximum near $(\pi,\pi)$ at intermediate temperatures and near $(\pi,\pi/2)$ as temperature approaches zero, in agreement with neutron scattering experiments. Coulomb repulsion $G$ between the first neighbors turns out to be the source of Charge Density Waves (CDW) in narrow band $t_1^{\mathit{eff}}, t_2^{\mathit{eff}}, t_3^{\mathit{eff}}<G$. For physically realistic hopping values we obtain the CDW amplitude $e_Q=x$. The in-phase domain structure as a candidate for "stripe" picture is proposed.

We present a simple derivation of an expression for the superfluid density $ n_s \propto 1/\lambda^2 $ in superconductors with the tight binding energy dispersion. The derived expression is discussed in detail because of its distinction from the known expressions for ordinary superconductors with parabolic energy dispersion. We apply this expression for the experimental data analysis of the isotope effect in London penetration depth parameter $ \lambda $ in the BiSrCuO and YBaCuO family compounds near optimal doping, taking into account the orthorhombic distortion of crystal structure, and estimate the isotopic change of hopping parameters from the experimental data. We point out that $1/\lambda^2$ temperature behaviour is very sensitive to the ratio $ 2\Delta_m(T=0)/ k_B T_c $ and estimate this quantity for a number of compounds.

A system of self-consistent integral equations for the superconducting gap is formulated and solved taking account of the instability of the normal phase of bilayered cuprates against charge-density waves. The critical parameters are calculated as a function of the wave vector, temperature, and doping index. It is found that the region in which superconductivity coexists with d-type charge-density waves depends strongly on the doping index. The effective energy-gap parameter, determined as the interval between the peaks of the density of states, can have a local minimum at temperatures T$<$T$_C$.

We present the results of optical (R band) photometric and polarimetric monitoring and Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) imaging of the blazar S5 0716+714 along with Fermi gamma-ray data during a multi-waveband outburst in 2011 October. We analyze total and polarized intensity images of the blazar obtained with the VLBA at 43 GHz during and after the outburst. Monotonic rotation of the linear polarization vector at a rate of >50 degrees per night coincided with a sharp maximum in gamma-ray and optical flux. At the same time, within the uncertainties, a new superluminal knot appeared, with an apparent speed of ~21c. The general multi-frequency behavior of the outburst can be explained within the framework of a shock wave propagating along a helical path in the blazar's jet.

This paper contains suggestions for experiments with usage of the Spin Physics Detector (SPD) at the first stage of the SPD NICA Programme developing at JINR. Double polarized pp-, dd- and pd- collisions at c.m.s. NN energies of 3.4-10 GeV, which will be accessible at the initial stage of experiments, allow one to study spin dependence of the NN interaction, search for multiquark states at double strangeness, charm and beauty thresholds, study the short-range structure of the deuteron. Double polarized pd scattering offer a possibility to test the Standard Model through the search for T-invariance violation.

We present optical photopolarimetric observations of the BL Lac object S4 0954+658 obtained with the 70-cm telescope in Crimea, 40-cm telescope in St.Petersburg, and 1.8-m Perkins telescope at Lowell Observatory (Flagstaff, Az). After a faint state with a brightness level R ~17.6 mag registered in the first half of January 2011, the optical brightness of the source started to rise and reached ~14.8 mag during the middle of March, showing flare-like behavior. The most spectacular case of intranight variability was observed during the night of 2011 March 9, when the blazar brightened by ~0.7 mag within ~7 hours. During the rise of the flux the position angle of optical polarization rotated smoothly over more than 200 degrees. S4 0954+658 is a gamma-ray blazar with gamma-ray flux of (5{\pm}3)x10^{-10} phot/cm^2/s according to the Fermi 11-month Catalog Extragalactic Sources. Our analysis of contemporaneous Fermi LAT data does not show any sign of increased gamma-ray activity above the detection threshold except for an elevated flux on 2011 March 5, JD2455626, coincident with the local optical maximum.

We study the dynamical response of the oxygen-16 nucleus to an incident antiproton using the Giessen Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck microscopic transport model with relativistic mean fields. A special emphasis is put on the possibility of a dynamical compression of the nucleus induced by the moving antiproton. Realistic antibaryon coupling constants to the mean meson fields are chosen in accordance with empirical data. Our calculations show that an antiproton embedded in the nuclear interior with momentum less than the nucleon Fermi momentum may create a locally compressed zone in the nucleus with a maximum density of about twice the nuclear saturation density. To evaluate the probability of the nuclear compression in high-energy antiproton-nucleus collisions, we adopt a two-stage scheme. This scheme takes into account the antiproton deceleration due to the cascade of antiproton-nucleon rescatterings inside the nucleus (first stage) as well as the nuclear compression by the slow antiproton before its annihilation (second stage). With our standard model parameters, the fraction of antiproton annihilation events in the compressed zone is about $10^{-5}$ for $\bar p ^{16}$O collisions at $p_{\rm lab}=3-10$ GeV/c. Finally, possible experimental triggers aimed at selecting such events are discussed.

We present the results of polarimetric ($R$ band) and multicolor photometric ($BVRIJHK$) observations of the blazar AO 0235+16 during an outburst in 2006 December. The data reveal a short timescale of variability (several hours), which increases from optical to near-IR wavelengths; even shorter variations are detected in polarization. The flux density correlates with the degree of polarization, and at maximum degree of polarization the electric vector tends to align with the parsec-scale jet direction. We find that a variable component with a steady power-law spectral energy distribution and very high optical polarization (30-50%) is responsible for the variability. We interpret these properties of the blazar withina model of a transverse shock propagating down the jet. In this case a small change in the viewing angle of the jet, by $\lesssim 1^o$, and a decrease in the shocked plasma compression by a factor of $\sim$1.5 are sufficient to account for the variability.

We investigate resonant photoluminescence arising from incompressible quantum liquids formed in two-dimensional electron systems. We demonstrate that, for excitons composed of a photoexcited electron occupying the upper spin sublevel of the zeroth Landau level and a valence-band hole, the influence of disorder potential fluctuations on optical recombination is strongly suppressed, indicating complete screening of the disorder. We identify an optical invariant quantity that is insensitive to excitation energy yet strongly dependent on the electron temperature, serving as a probe of exciton recombination in quantum liquids. Analysis of this quantity reveals that quantum-liquid formation initiates at (n = 1/3) as the electron temperature decreases, consistent with the Laughlin state. Upon further cooling, the range of filling factors exhibiting quantum-liquid behavior expands continuously from (n = 1/3) toward (n = 1/2). Transitions between distinct incompressible quantum-liquid states occur smoothly, without well-defined phase boundaries separating insulating and conducting regimes. Locally, the system retains quantum-liquid characteristics even as bulk transport measurements indicate finite conductivity. Finally, we present a phase diagram delineating the stability region of incompressible quantum liquids relative to conductive phases.

We theoretically analyze the quantum vortices - the zeros of electron wave function which are formed through atom ionization by ultrashort laser pulse. In 2D space we consider the case of above-threshold ionization of hydrogen atom and in 3D space the ionization of the atom in the zero-radius-potential approximation. With the help of obtained analytical results we make the assumption that localization of quantum vortices in 3D space can be predicted by analysis of 2D model.
