| Is there a rigorous definition of "quasiparticle"? | 13 Jul 2008 19:53 GMT | 1 |
Is there any (general accepted) conceptual precise and mathematically rigorous definition of the concepts "particle" and "quasiparticle" in the framework of non-relativistic quantum mechanics? I am mainly interested in quasiparticles, but I think if there is a

| The Foldy-Wouthuysen Velocity Operator -- Is this Correct? | 11 Jul 2008 15:01 GMT | 2 |
There has been a fair amount of discussion on sci.physics.foundations in the thread "Might Foldy-Wouthuysen Transformations contain a Hidden Fermion Mass Generation Mechanism?" regarding the fact that the velocity operator "alpha" of the Dirac Hamiltonian appears to suggest that a

| What exactly is wrong with Huygens' principle in two dimensions? | 10 Jul 2008 16:40 GMT | 20 |
[This issue is still unlear in all discussions of the topic, even after a thorough search, and despite a similar positing some weeks ago in another group.]

The issue of causal signature has importance for four major applications: * the design of more refined empirical tests to determine what the spacetime signature actually is

| z shift in 'rigid' linearly accelerating reference frames. | 08 Jul 2008 11:31 GMT | 20 |
In the past, I have usually assumed that the z shift distance relationship in a linearly accelerating reference frame could be obtained by naive application of the gravitational Doppler shift thus: 1 + z = 1 / (1 - g.d/c^2)

| Supersymmetry generator(s) ? | 05 Jul 2008 14:44 GMT | 1 |
I'm confused about the following three questinos. Suppose we have local N=(1,0) supersymmetry in 10-dimensional minkowski spacetime. In 10-dimensions we have two real irreducible unique 16-dimensional majorana-weyl representations of Spin(9,1)
