M-theory on special holonomy spaces
(The American Institute of Physics, 2002-01-23)
We review the construction of regular p-brane solutions of M-theory and string theory with less than maximal supersymmetry whose transverse spaces have metrics with special holonomy, and where additional fluxes allow brane ...
Interstellar Pathfinder — A Mission to the Inner Edge of the Interstellar Medium
(The American Institute of Physics, 2003-09-02)
Interstellar Pathfinder (ISP), our first step into the interstellar medium, is a scientific investigation to study the outer boundary of our heliosphere and the interstellar matter that flows into it. A wind of interstellar ...
Resonant energy transfer in electron-driven proton pumps
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2008-01)
We examine proton and electron transport in living cell membranes and show that the Coulomb interaction leads to a resonant energy transfer, from the electrons to protons during their simultaneous tunnelings, which allows ...
Brane-world Kaluza–Klein reductions and branes on the brane
(The American Institute of Physics, 2001-07)
We present a systematic study of a new type of consistent “brane-world Kaluza–Klein reduction,” which describes fully nonlinear deformations of codimension one objects that arise as solutions of a large class of gauged ...
New supersymmetric solutions of N = 2, D = 5 gauged supergravity with hyperscalars
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2007-10-01)
We construct new supersymmetric solutions, including AdS bubbles, in an N = 2 truncation of five-dimensional N = 8 gauged supergravity. This particular truncation is given by N = 2 gauged supergravity coupled to two ...
