Interacting holographic dark energy, cosmic coincidence and the future singularity of the closed FRW universe
Abstract In this paper, we have considered the closed FRW universe filled with two interacting fluids; dark matter and holographic dark energy components. Under certain conditions, this dark energy model is characterised by a big rip type future singularity and therefore a finite life time of the universe (Cruz et al., 2008). As the universe passes through a significant time when the matter and the dark energy densities are roughly comparable between the matter and the dark energy dominated era. So, we calculated the fraction of total life time of the universe when the universe passes through the coincidental stage for this future singularity by considering 1 r o r = ρ M ρ DE r o , where r 0 is any fixed ratio. It has been found that the time for the future singularity t s is very large when the value of the constant c is much closed to zero and the fraction is smaller for smaller values of r 0 . Comparison of the results with the observational data and its importance has also been discussed.

Interacting holographic dark energy with variable deceleration parameter and accreting black holes in Bianchi type-V universe
In this paper, we have considered the spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V space time filled with two interacting fluids; dark matter and a hypothetical isotropic fluid as the holographic dark energy components. To obtain an exact solution of the Einstein’s field equations, we used the assumption of time dependent deceleration parameter. We have investigated geometric and kinematic properties of the model. It is observed that the anisotropy parameter of the universe approaches to zero and the universe achieve flatness for large cosmic time. We have shown that this expanding solution is stable against the perturbation with respect to anisotropic spatial directions. We have also studied the evolution of the mass of a black hole embedded in a universe which interacts with a combination of dark matter and dark energy, considering that in the vicinity of the black hole the metric is of Schwarzschild type. We found that the black hole mass increases with the evolution of the universe, and on later epochs the increase in mass stops as dark energy accretion takes over. The results are found to be consistent with recent cosmological observations.

Dark energy, cosmic coincidence and future singularity of the universe
Dark energy model with the equation of state $$p_{DE} =-\rho _{DE} -A\rho _{DE}^\alpha $$, is characterised by four finite life time future singularity of the universe for different values of the parameter $$A$$ and $$\alpha $$ [Nojiri et al. in Phys Rev D 71:063004, 2005]. Since from the matter dominated era to the dark energy dominated era the ratio of the dark energy density to the matter energy density increases as the universe expand for these future singularities, the universe passes through a significant time when the dark energy density and the matter energy density are nearly comparable. Considering $$\frac{1}{r_0 }<r=\frac{\rho _{DE} }{\rho _M }<r_0 $$, where $$r_0$$ is any fixed ratio, we calculate the fraction of total life time of the universe when the universe passes through the coincidental stage for these singularities. It has been found that the fractional time varies as $$\alpha $$ varies within the range for which these finite life time future singularities occur and the fraction is smaller for smaller values of $$r_0 $$. Importance of the fractional time and observational limits onto the values of the parameter $$A$$ and $$\alpha $$ has also been discussed.

Holographic dark energy model with linearly varying deceleration parameter and generalised Chaplygin gas dark energy model in Bianchi type-I universe
The paper deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-I universe filled with two minimally interacting fluids; matter and holographic dark energy components. The nature of the holographic dark energy for Bianchi type-I space time is discussed. An exact solution to Einstein’s field equations in Bianchi type-I line element is obtained using the assumption of linearly varying deceleration parameter. Under the suitable condition, it is observed that the anisotropy parameter of the universe approaches to zero for large cosmic time and the coincidence parameter increases with increasing time. We established a correspondence between the holographic dark energy models with the generalised Chaplygin gas dark energy model. We also reconstructed the potential and dynamics of the scalar field which describes the Chaplygin cosmology. Solution of the field equations shows that a big rip type future singularity will occur for this model. It has been observed that the solutions are compatible with the results of recent observations.

Interacting holographic dark energy with variable deceleration parameter and tachyon scalar field dark energy model in LRS Bianchi type-II universe
In this work, we have considered the spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-II universe filled with two interacting fluids; dark matter and holographic dark energy components. Assuming the proportionality relation between one of the components of shear scalar and expansion scalar which yields time dependent deceleration parameter, an exact solution to Einstein’s field equations in Bianchi type-II line element is obtained. We have investigated geometric and kinematics properties of the model and the behaviour of the holographic dark energy. It is observed that the mean anisotropic parameter is uniform through the whole evolution of the universe and the coincidence parameter increases with increasing time. The solutions are also found to be in good agreement with the results of recent observations. We have applied the statefinder diagnostics method to study the behaviour of different stages of the universe and to differentiate the proposed dark energy model from the ΛCDM model. We have also established a correspondence between the holographic dark energy model and the tachyon scalar field dark energy model. We have reconstructed the potential and the dynamics of the tachyon scalar field, which describes accelerated expansion of the universe.

Holographic dark energy model with variable deceleration parameter, cosmic coincidence and the future singularity of the Kantowski-Sachs universe
The present work deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Kantowski-Sachs space time filled with two minimally interacting fluids; dark matter and a hypothetical anisotropic fluid as the holographic dark energy components. To obtain an exact solution of the Einstein’s field equations, we used the assumption of linearly varying deceleration parameter. We have investigated geometric and kinematic properties of the model and the role of the anisotropic holographic dark energy in the evolution of the Kantowski-Sachs universe. Under the suitable condition, it is observed that the anisotropy parameter of the universe and the skewness parameter of the holographic dark energy approaches to zero for large cosmic time and the universe can achieve flatness for some particular moments throughout its entire lifetime. Results show that the coincidence parameter $( \Re= \frac{\rho_{\varLambda}}{\rho_{M}} )$ increases with increasing time and a big rip type future singularity will occur for this model. We have also applied the statefinder diagnostics method to study the behavior of different stages of the universe and to differentiate the proposed dark energy model from the ΛCDM model. Since in this model, the universe has a finite life time and passes through a significant time when the dark energy and the matter energy densities are roughly comparable, so considering $\frac{1}{ \Re_{0}} <\Re < \Re_{0}$, where ℜ0 is any fixed ratio, we have calculated the fraction of total life time of the universe when the universe passes through the coincidental stage for this future singularity. The results are found to be consistent with recent cosmological observations.

Energy loss due to field fluctuations in a two-stream QCD plasma
We derive the expression for the collisional energy loss in two stream plasma induced by the fluctuating chromoelectric field. It is revealed that the main contribution here comes from the unstable modes which grow exponentially with time. A strong direction dependence of the energy loss has also been demonstrated.

Quantum phase diagram of granular superconducting quantum dots array
Abstract We study the quantum phase diagram of granular superconducting quantum dots (GSQD) array. We implement the physics of granularity by considering site dependent Josephson couplings, on-site charging energies and the intersite interactions. We predict dimer density wave and staggered phases at the insulating state for higher order commensurability. Several parts of the quantum phase diagram of GSQD are in contrast with the clean superconducting quantum dots array. We also obtain the superconducting phase of GSQD. We develop the theory for weak tunneling conductance and the Coulomb energy is smaller than the superconducting gap.

CMS Monte Carlo production in the WLCG computing Grid
Monte Carlo production in CMS has received a major boost in performance and 
scale since the past CHEP06 conference. The production system has been re-engineered in order 
to incorporate the experience gained in running the previous system and to integrate production 
with the new CMS event data model, data management system and data processing framework. 
The system is interfaced to the two major computing Grids used by CMS, the LHC Computing 
Grid (LCG) and the Open Science Grid (OSG). 
Operational experience and integration aspects of the new CMS Monte Carlo production 
system is presented together with an analysis of production statistics. The new system 
automatically handles job submission, resource monitoring, job queuing, job distribution 
according to the available resources, data merging, registration of data into the data 
bookkeeping, data location, data transfer and placement systems. Compared to the previous 
production system automation, reliability and performance have been considerably improved. A 
more efficient use of computing resources and a better handling of the inherent Grid unreliability 
have resulted in an increase of production scale by about an order of magnitude, capable of 
running in parallel at the order of ten thousand jobs and yielding more than two million events 
per day.

Strong Coupling BCS Superconductivity and Holography
Abstract We attempt to give a holographic description of the microscopic theory of a BCS superconductor. Exploiting the analogy with chiral symmetry breaking in QCD we use the Sakai–Sugimoto model of two D8 branes in a D4 brane background with finite baryon number. In this case there is a new tachyonic instability which is plausibly the bulk analog of the Cooper pairing instability. We analyze the Yang–Mills approximation to the non-Abelian Dirac–Born–Infeld action. We give some exact solutions of the non-linear Yang–Mills equations in flat space and also give a stability analysis, showing that the instability disappears in the presence of an electric field. The holographic picture also suggests a dependence of T c on the number density which is different from the usual (weak coupling) BCS. The flat space solutions are then generalized to curved space numerically and also, in an approximate way, analytically. This configuration should then correspond to the ground state of the boundary superconducting (superfluid) ground state. We also give some preliminary results on Green functions computations in the Sakai–Sugimoto model without any chemical potential.
