$J/\psi$ production in Au+Au/Cu+Cu collisions at $\sqrt{s}_{NN}$=200 GeV and the threshold model [PDF]
Using the QGP motivated threshold model, where all the $J/\psi$'s are suppressed above a threshold density, we have analyzed the preliminary PHENIX data on the centrality dependence of nuclear modification factor for $J/\psi$'s in Cu+Cu and in Au+Au ...

Conformal dynamics of quantum gravity with torsion
The trace anomaly induced dynamics of the conformal factor is investigated in four-dimensional quantum gravity with torsion. The constraints for the coupling constants of torsion matter interaction are obtained in the infrared stable fixed point of the ...

Anomalous thermodynamics at the micro-scale
Particle motion at the micro-scale is an incessant tug-of-war between thermal fluctuations and applied forces on one side, and the strong resistance exerted by fluid viscosity on the other.

Stress Tensor from the Trace Anomaly in Reissner-Nordstrom Spacetimes
The effective action associated with the trace anomaly provides a general algorithm for approximating the expectation value of the stress tensor of conformal matter fields in arbitrary curved spacetimes.

Aspects of Exactly Solvable Quantum-Corrected 2D Dilaton Gravity Theories
After reviewing the basic aspects of the exactly solvable quantum-corrected dilaton-gravity theories in two dimensions, we discuss a (subjective) selection of other aspects: a) supersymmetric extensions, b) canonical formalism, ADM-mass, and the ...

The Trace Anomaly and Dynamical Vacuum Energy in Cosmology [PDF]
The trace anomaly of conformal matter implies the existence of massless scalar poles in physical amplitudes involving the stress-energy tensor. These poles may be described by a local effective action with massless scalar fields, which couple to ...

Conformal Anomalies in Hydrodynamics
We study the effect of conformal anomalies on the hydrodynamic description of conformal field theories in even spacetime dimensions. We consider equilibrium curved backgrounds characterized by a time-like Killing vector and construct a local low energy ...

Scalar Gravitational Waves in the Effective Theory of Gravity
As a low energy effective field theory, classical General Relativity receives an infrared relevant modification from the conformal trace anomaly of the energy-momentum tensor of massless, or nearly massless, quantum fields.

Real decoupling ghost quantization of the CGHS model for two dimensional black holes
A complete RST quantization of a CGHS model plus Strominger term is carried out. In so doing a conformal invariant theory with $\kappa=\frac{N}{12}$ is found, that is, without ghosts contribution.
