Expressions are derived for the mass of a stationary axisymmetric solution of the Einstein equations containing a black hole surrounded by matter and for the difference in mass between two neighboring ...

We review the concepts of the Voronoi binning technique (Cappellari & Copin 2003), which optimally solves the problem of preserving the maximum spatial resolution of general two-dimensional data, ...

General conditions for dynamical supersymmetry breaking are discussed. Very small effects that would usually be ignored, such as instantons of a grand unified theory, might break supersymmetry at a ...

The question about continuous phase transitions (without latent heat) is investigated from the general thermodynamical point of view. In doing this, it becomes clear that such transitions can take ...

Analytical experessions for the e + e − → μ + μ − cross section including all the one-loop radiative corrections in the context of the Weinberg model are presented. The systematic calculation of ...

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 ...

The Einstein equations with quantum one-loop contributions of conformally covariant matter fields are shown to admit a class of nonsingular isotropic homogeneous solutions that correspond to a picture ...

It is possible for a classical field theory to have two homogeneous stable equilibrium states with different energy densities. In the quantum version of the theory, the state of higher energy density ...
