Assesment of multifragmentation under the effect of symmetry energy and cross-section
The effect of symmetry energy and cross section had seen on the fragment production in the multifragmentation of $^{20}Ne_{10}+ ^{20}Ne_{10}$ and $^{197}Au_{79} + ^{197}Au_{79}$ at incident energy 50-1000 MeV/nucleon using isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics model. To see the effect of symmetry energy and cross-section in more effective way relative yield of $^{197}Au_{79}$ and $^{20}Ne_{10}$ was studied. It is observed that relative yield of free nucleon, light mass fragment at isospin dependent cross-section is almost same at different symmetry energy values. While for fixed cross-section relative yield is influenced by symmetry energy. We compare the stiffness of symmetry energy suggested by different groups with our value. To verify our result we compare our study with ALADIN data.

Rapidity distribution dependence of the transition energy in heavy-ion collisions
For the present analysis, simulations are carried out for thousand of events for the reaction of 79Au197 + 79Au197 at semi-central geometry using a hard equation of state. The whole of the analysis is performed for light charged particles (LCP's). The transition from in-plane to out-of-plane is observed only when the mid-rapidity region is included in the rapidity bin otherwise no transition is observed. The transition energy is found to be strongly dependent on the size of the rapidity bin. The transition energy is parameterized with a straight line interpolation.

Effect of isospin dependent cross-section on nuclear stopping
Nuclear stopping in heavy ion collisions (HIC) has been studied by means of rapidity distribution and asymmetry of nucleon momentum distribution. It is an important quantity in determining the outcome of a reaction. Fen Fu {\it et al.,} \cite{2} calculate both the radial flow and the degree of nuclear stopping in Pb + Pb and Ni + Ni at 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 GeV/neucleon. They found that the expansion velocity as well as the degree of nuclear stopping are higher in the heavier system at all energies.

Influence of charge asymmetry and isospin dependent cross-section on nuclear stopping
Using the isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics model, we study the effect of charge asymmetry and isospin dependent cross-section on nuclear stopping and multiplicity of free nucleons and LMF’s. Simulations were carried out for the reactions 124 Xm + 124 Xm, where m varies from 47 to 59 and for 40 Yn+ 40 Yn, where n varies from 14 to 23. Our study shows that nuclear stopping as well as the production of LMF’s depend strongly on the isospin of the cross-section.

Production of light and intermediate mass fragments using various clusterization algorithms
For the present analysis we simulate the reaction 129Xe 54+197Au79 at E=50 MeV/nucleon respectively[3]. This reaction is simulated at different impact parameters using hard equation of state. The stored phase space is then analyzed by using MST, MSTP and MSTB algorithms. MSTB and MSTP identifies the free nucleons as early as possible. In the two cases, a check in the form of binding energy and momentum cut helps to identify the fragments quite early. The normal MST takes quite a long time to identify the stable fragments which are residual of excited fragments.

Effect of density dependent symmetry energy on fragmentation
The effect of the density dependence of symmetry energy on fragmentation is studied using isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics model(IQMD) Model. We have used the reduced isospin-dependent cross-section with soft equation of state to explain the experimental findings for the system 79Au197 + 79Au197 for the full colliding geometry. In addition to that we have tried to study the collective response of the momentum dependent interactions(MDI) and symmetry energy towards the multifragmentation.

αdecay chains study for the recently observed superheavy elementZ=117within the isospin cluster model
The recently observed $\alpha$-decay chains $^{293-294}117$ were produced by the fusion reactions with target $^{249}Bk$ and projectile $^{48}Ca$ at Dubna in Russia. The reported cross-sections for the mentioned reaction are $\sigma=0.5(+1.1,-0.4)$pb and $\sigma$=1.3(+1.5,-0.6)$pb$ at $E^{*}=35MeV$ and $E^{*}=39MeV$, respectively. The Q-values of $\alpha$-decay and the half-lives $Log_{10}T^{\alpha}_{1/2}$(s) are calculated for the $\alpha$-decay chains of $^{293-294}117$ nuclei, within the framework of Isospin Cluster Model (ICM). In the ICM model the proximity energy is improved by using the isospin dependent radius of parent, daughter and alpha particle. The binding energy $B(A_{i}, Z_{i})$ (i=1,2) of any nucleus of mass number A and atomic number Z was obtained from a phenomenological and more genaralized BW formula given by \cite{samanta02}. The calculated results in ICM are compared with the experimental results and other theoretical Macro-Microscopic(M-M), RMF(with NL3 and SFU Gold forces parameter) model calculations. The estimated values of $\alpha$-decay half-lives are in good agreement with the recent data. The ICM calculation is in favor of the persence of magic number at N=172.

CP-odd weak basis invariants and texture zeros
We construct the CP-odd weak basis invariants from the neutrino mass matrix in a weak basis, in which the charged lepton mass matrix is diagonal, and find the necessary and sufficient conditions for CP conservation. We study the interrelationships between different CP-odd weak basis invariants to examine their implications for the Dirac- and Majorana-type CP violating phases for the phenomenologically allowed Frampton-Glashow-Marfatia texture zero structures of the neutrino mass matrix.

Sensitivity of elliptical flow in intermediate energy heavy-ion collisions
The detailed analysis of excitation function of elliptical flow by taking into account the nature of equation of state, nucleon-nucleon cross sections as well as momentum dependent interactions is performed within Quantum Molecular Dynamics (QMD)model. All the observables are found to sensitive towards the elliptical flow. The transition energy is found to be decrease with increase in the size of the fragment in the presence of static equation of state as well as with large cross sections, while, trend gets opposite when momentum dependent interactions are included. At last, the experimental data is verified with static hard equation of state in the presence of large cross sections.

Strings in twistor superspace and mirror symmetry
Abstract We obtain the super-Landau–Ginzburg mirror of the A-twisted topological sigma model on a twistor superspace—the quadric in CP 3 | 3 × CP 3 | 3 which is a Calabi–Yau supermanifold. We show that the B-model mirror has a geometric interpretation. In a particular limit for one of the Kahler parameters of the quadric, we show that the mirror can be interpreted as the twistor superspace CP 3 | 4 . This agrees with the recent conjecture of Neitzke and Vafa proposing a mirror equivalence between the two twistor superspaces.

Weak coupling large-N transitions at finite baryon density
A bstractWe study thermodynamics of free SU(N) gauge theory with a large number of colours and flavours on a three-sphere, in the presence of a baryon number chemical potential. Reducing the system to a holomorphic large-N matrix integral, paying specific attention to theories with scalar flavours (squarks), we identify novel third-order deconfining phase transitions as a function of the chemical potential. These transitions in the complex large-N saddle point configurations are interpreted as “melting” of baryons into (s)quarks. They are triggered by the exponentially large (~eN) degeneracy of light baryon-like states, which include ordinary baryons, adjoint-baryons and baryons made from different spherical harmonics of flavour fields on the three-sphere. The phase diagram of theories with scalar flavours terminates at a phase boundary where baryon number diverges, representing the onset of Bose condensation of squarks.
