Progress on marine carotenoids over the past three years is reviewed. Structural elucidation including stereochemical assignments, improved methodology for such studies and partial syntheses are treated, Unpublished results from the author’s laboratory are included. Several applied aspects are mentioned,

In this talk, I will summarize some recent developments in QCD, concentrating on, but not limited to, topics discussed at the this meeting. Details, of course, can be found in the talks themselves, presented in lively sessions organized by Lance Dixon and Joey Huston for perturbative QCD, and by Paul Mackenzie and Claude Bernard for nonperturbative QCD. The future of the eld is in the already-a...

I give a synopsis, specifically aimed at nonexperts, of some of the recent developments in electroweak baryogenesis. The focus of the talk is on the present status of electroweak baryogenesis in supersymmetric models, since this is a plausible and realistic possibility that is currently being probed by experimental searches for the Higgs boson and the top squark. The question of whether it is v...

In Figure 1 the domains Ω E , Ω S , Ω B are an ellipse, a stadium and a " Barnett " billiard table respectively. Superimposed on these are the densities of a sequence of high frequency eigenfunctions (" states " , " modes ") of the Laplacian. That is solutions to △φ j + λ j φ j = 0, Ω φ 2 j dxdy = 1 φ j ∂ Ω = 0 (Dirichlet boundary conditions) where △ = divgrad = ∂ 2 ∂x 2 + ∂ 2 ∂y 2 and λ 1 < λ ...
