Singlet Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

Nuclear singlet states may have lifetimes that are much longer than the conventional relaxation time of nuclear spin magnetization. This review covers how these states may be generated, observed, and exploited in solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Potential applications include the study of slow molecular processes, the elucidation of molecular geometry, and the transport of hyperpolarized nuclear spin order.

Puzzles in Hadronic Physics and Novel Quantum Chromodynamics Phenomenology

We review some outstanding puzzles and experimental anomalies in hadron physics that appear to challenge conventional wisdom and, in some cases, the foundations of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We also discuss possible solutions and propose new tests and experiments that could illuminate th ... more

Next-to-Leading-Order Event Generators

We review the methods developed for combining the parton shower approximation to quantum chromodynamics with fixed-order perturbation theory so as to achieve next-to-leading-order (NLO) accuracy for inclusive observables. These developments have made it possible to generate fully simulated ... more

Neutrino Masses from the Top Down

General classes of mechanisms for generating small neutrino masses are surveyed from a top-down (superstring) perspective. In particular, string constructions have motivated various possibilities involving higher-dimensional operators, string instantons, and wave-function overlaps in large ... more
