Abstract We consider three-dimensional sQED with 2 flavors and minimal supersymmetry. We discuss various models which are dual to Gross-Neveu-Yukawa theories. The U(2) ultraviolet global symmetry is often enhanced in the infrared, for instance to O(4) or SU(3). This is analogous to the conjectured behaviour of non-supersymmetric QED with 2 flavors. A perturbative analysis of the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa models in the D = 4 − ε expansion shows that the U(2) preserving superpotential deformations of the sQED (mod- ulo tuning mass terms to zero) are irrelevant, therefore the fixed points with enhanced symmetry are stable. We also construct an example of $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 sQED with 4 flavors that exhibits enhanced SO(6) symmetry.

We investigate the gauge dynamics of nonsupersymmetric SU (N) gauge theories featuring the simultaneous presence of fermionic matter transforming according to two distinct representations of the underlying gauge group. We bound the regions of flavors and colors which can yield a physical infrared fixed point. As a consistency check we recover the previously investigated bounds of the conformal windows when restricting to a single matter representation. The earlier conformal windows can be imagined to be part now of the new conformal house. We predict the nonperturbative anomalous dimensions at the infrared fixed points. We further investigate the effects of adding mass terms to the condensates on the conformal house chiral dynamics and construct the simplest instanton induced effective Lagrangian terms.

We construct mass terms for the ghost and antighost in the bosonic string which preserve coordinate BRST invariance. This allows us to compute the Weyl and ghost number anomalies with Pauli-Villars regularization. An algorithm is derived for the construction of those regulators in the Fujikawa scheme which yield consistent anomalies. In the formulation with the BRST auxiliary fields we find that the nonpropagating two-dimensional gravitational field must be regulated in the same way as the antighost. It contributes the same amount to the anomaly as the antighosts do when one eliminates the auxiliary fields.

We present a basic formalism for using the Weyl spinor notation in Feynman rules. We focus on Weyl spinors with mixed Dirac and Majorana mass terms. To clarify the definitions we derive the Feynman rules from the path integral and present two examples: loop corrections for a fermion propagator and a tree level analysis of a seesaw toy model.

In this study, four hybrid bearings having different geometric configurations were experimentally tested for their static and dynamic characteristics, including flowrate, load capacity, rotordynamic coefficients, and whirl frequency ratio. The four bearings included a square-recess, smooth-land, radial-orifice bearing (baseline), a circular-recess bearing, a triangular-recess bearing, and an angled-orifice bearing. Each bearing had the same orifice diameter rather than the same pressure ratio. Unique to these test results is the measurement of the added mass terms, which became significant in the present tests because of high operating Reynolds numbers. Comparisons of the results were made between bearings to determine which bearing had the best performance. Based on the parameters of interest, the angled-orifice bearing has the most favorable overall performance.
