The interaction between static D0-branes at finite temperature is considered in the matrix theory and the superstring theory. The results agree in both cases to the leading order in the supersymmetry violation by temperature, where the one-loop approximation is reliable. The effective static potential is short-ranged and attractive. Talk at the 32nd International Symposium Ahrenshoop on the The...

Monitoring the isotropic chemical shifts to calibrate the sample temperature presupposes a perfect stability of the static magnetic field. It can be difficult to satisfy this requirement in solid-state NMR measurements. This paper describes a simple way to recover the accurate temperature dependence of the (79)Br resonance after subtracting changes of resonance frequency due to variations of th...

I discuss lattice QCD calculations of the properties of strongly interacting matter at finite temperature, including the determination of the transition temperature Tc, equation of state, different static screening lengths and quarkonium spectral functions. The lattice data suggest that at temperatures above 2.0Tc many properties of the quark gluon plasma can be understood using weak coupling a...

The effects of condensation of the world.ng gee (nitrogen) on pitot and static pressures in the R.A.R.D.E. hypersonic gun tunnel have been examined and the onset of condensation determined for flow Mach numbers of 8.4, 10.4 and 12.9. A large degree of supersaturation was observed at the two higher Maoh numbers. Symbols M flow Mach number P statio pressure P 1 stagnation pressure p2 pitot pressu...
