Quiver Gauge Theory and Noncommutative Vortices
We construct explicit BPS and non-BPS solutions of the Yang-Mills equations on noncommutative spaces R 2n � × G/H which are manifestly G-symmetric. Given a G-representation, by twisting with a particular bundle over G/H, we obtain a Gequivariant U(k) bundle with a G-equivariant connection over R 2n � × G/H. The U(k)

title: Solving string field equations: new uses for old tools
abstract: It is argued that the (NS-sector) superstring field equations are integrable, i.e. their solutions are obtainable from linear equations. We adapt the 25-year-old solution-generating “dressing” method and reduce the construction of nonperturbative superstring configurations to a specific cohomology problem. The application to vacuum superstring field theory is outlined.

title: On nonperturbative solutions of superstring field theory
abstract: Nonperturbative solutions to the nonlinear field equations in the NS sector of cubic as well as nonpolynomial superstring field theory can be obtained from a linear equation which includes a “spectral” parameter λ and a coboundary operator Q ( λ ). We borrow a simple ansatz from the dressing method (for generating solitons in integrable field theories) and show that classical superstring fields can be constructed from any string field  T subject merely to Q ( λ ) T =0. Following the decay of the non-BPS D9 brane in IIA theory and shifting the background to the tachyon vacuum, we repeat the arguments in vacuum superstring field theory and outline how to compute classical solutions explicitly.

title: Fundamental chiral strings
abstract: The problem of the non-uniqueness of the string theory in the space Rd-1,1 with d ≤ 10 and the procedure of the compactification and the deompactification are discussed. We consider a compact bosonic string defined as a closed string moving in the Lorentizian torus T25,1 and introduce fundamental chiral bosonic string (FCBS) as a universal cover of a compact string. It is shown that the Fock spaces of any standard strings are embedded into the Fock space of FCBS.

title: Noncommutative instantons in higher dimensions, vortices and topological K-cycles
abstract: We construct explicit BPS and non-BPS solutions of the U(2k) Yang-Mills equations on the noncommutative space 2nθ × S2 with finite energy and topological charge. By twisting with a Dirac multi-monopole bundle over S2, we reduce the Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau equations on 2nθ × S2 to vortex-type equations for a pair of U(k) gauge fields and a bi-fundamental scalar field on 2nθ. In the SO(3)-invariant case the vortices on 2nθ determine multi-instantons on 2nθ × S2. We show that these solutions give natural physical realizations of Bott periodicity and vector bundle modification in topological K-homology, and can be interpreted as a blowing-up of D0-branes on 2nθ into spherical D2-branes on 2nθ × S2. In the generic case with broken rotational symmetry, we argue that the D0-brane charges on 2nθ × S2 provide a physical interpretation of the Adams operations in K-theory.

title: Recent Results from Brookhaven E852 Experiment
abstract: Experiment E852 at Brookhaven National Laboratory is an experiment in meson spectroscopy configured to detect both neutral and charged final states of π−p collisions at 18 GeV/c. The main goal of this experiment is to search for the signs of mesons which cannot be described in the scope of the constituent quark model, with an emphasis on the meson with the manifestly exotic quantum numbers. In this talk the description of the experimental apparatus along with a general overview of the latest E852 results are presented.

title: Measurement of the forward-backward asymmetry in the distribution of leptons in $t\bar{t}$ events in the lepton+jets channel
abstract: We present measurements of the forward-backward asymmetry in the angular distribution of leptons from decays of top quarks and antiquarks produced in proton-antiproton collisions. We consider the final state containing a lepton and at least three jets. The entire sample of data collected by the D0 experiment during Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider, corresponding to 9.7 inverse fb of integrated luminosity, is used. The asymmetry measured for reconstructed leptons is $A_{FB}^l = \big(2.9 \pm 2.1(stat.) ^{+1.5}_{-1.7}(syst.) \big)$%. When corrected for efficiency and resolution effects within the lepton rapidity coverage of $|y_l|<1.5$, the asymmetry is found to be $A_{FB}^l = \big(4.2 \pm 2.3(stat.) ^{+1.7}_{-2.0}(syst.) \big)$%. Combination with the asymmetry measured in the dilepton final state yields $A_{FB}^l = \big(4.2 \pm 2.0(stat.) \pm 1.4(syst.) \big)$%. We examine the dependence of $A_{FB}^l$ on the transverse momentum and rapidity of the lepton. The results are in agreement with predictions from the next-to-leading-order QCD generator \mcatnlo, which predicts an asymmetry of $A_{FB}^l = 2.0$% for $|y_l|<1.5$.

title: Search for Higgs boson production in oppositely charged dilepton and missing energy final states in 9.7 fb$^{-1}$ of $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV
abstract: We present a search for Higgs boson in final states with two oppositely charged leptons and large missing transverse energy as expected in H -> WW -> lvlv decays. The events are selected from the full Run II data sample of 9.7 fb-1 of ppbar collisions collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at sqrt s = 1.96 TeV. To validate our search methodology, we measure the non-resonant W W production cross section and find sigma_WW = 11.6 +/- 0.7 pb, in agreement with the standard model prediction. In the Higgs boson search, no significant excess above the background expectation is observed. Upper limits at the 95% confidence level on the Higgs boson production cross section are therefore derived. Within the standard model, the Higgs boson mass range 159

title: Searches for new physics at Tevatron: Most recent results
abstract: The most recent results obtained from searches of particles and phenomena beyond the Standard Model (new physics) in the D0 and CDF experiments at the Tevatron accelerator (FNAL, USA) on the basis of statistics corresponding to the integrated luminosity of up to 4 fb−1 in 2009 are considered. Particular attention is given to the most recent results on searches for a supersymmetric Higgs boson.

title: Improved b quark jet identification at the D0 experiment
abstract: The ability to identify jets which originated from b quarks is an important tool of the physics program of the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron p (p) over bar collider. This paper describes a new algorithm designed to select jets originating from b quarks while suppressing the contamination caused by jets from other quark flavors and gluons. Additionally, a new technique, the SystemN method, for determining the misidentification rate directly from data is presented.
