The electron hopping between the two sites in a lattice is of fundamental importance in condensed matter physics. Precise control of the hopping strength allows for the prospect of manipulating the ...

We apply a recently proposed chiral-Lagrangian model to discuss the anomalous (unnatural-parity) decays of the low-lying vector and axial-vector mesons. First, about twenty "SU(3) relatives" of the ...

We have carried out an intensive survey of the northern region of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy with the aim of detecting the galaxy's short--period pulsating stars (P<0.25 days). Observations ...
