Critical behavior of Binder ratios and ratios of higher order cumulants of conserved charges in QCD deconfinement phase transition [PDF]
Binder liked ratios of baryon number are firstly suggested in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Using 3D-Ising model, the critical behavior of Binder ratios and ratios of high order cumulants of order parameter are fully presented. Binder ratio is shown to be a step function of temperature.

Balancing on the edge, the golden ratio, the Fibonacci sequence and their generalization [PDF]
The golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers are found to occur in various aspects of nature. We discuss the occurrence of this ratio in an interesting physical problem concerning center of masses in two dimensions. The result is shown to be independent of the particular shape of the object. The approach taken extends naturally to higher dimensions.
