In this letter we consider that assuming: a) that the only left-handed neutral fermions are the active neutrinos, b) that $B-L$ is a gauge symmetry, and c) that the $L$ assignment is restricted to the integer numbers, the anomaly cancellation imply t hat at least three right-handed neutrinos must be added to the minimal representation content of the electroweak standard model. However, two types of models arise: i) the usual one where each of the three identical right-handed neutrinos has total lepton number L=1; ii) and the other one in which two of them carry L=4 while the third one carries $L=-5$.

The letter contains an important message regarding the numerical modeling of left-handed media (LHM) using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method which remains at the moment one of the main techniques used in studies of these exotic material s. It is shown that conventional implementation of the dispersive FDTD method leads to inaccurate description of evanescent waves in the LHM. This defect can be corrected using the spatial averaging at the interfaces. However, a number of results obtained using conventional FDTD method has to be reconsidered. For instance, the accurate simulation of sub-wavelength imaging by the finite-sized slabs of left-handed media does not reveal the cavity effect reported in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 107404 (2004)]. Hence the finite transverse dimension of LHM slabs does not have significant effects on the sub-wavelength image quality, in contrary to previous assertions.
Collective charge excitations in solids have been the subject of intense research ever since the pioneering works of Bohm and Pines in the 1950s. Most of these studies focused on long-wavelength plasmons that involve charge excitations with a small c rystal-momentum transfer, $q ll G$, where $G$ is the wavenumber of a reciprocal lattice vector. Less emphasis was given to collective charge excitations that lead to shortwave plasmons in multivalley electronic systems (i.e., when $q sim G$). We present a theory of intervalley plasmons, taking into account local-field effects in the dynamical dielectric function. Focusing on monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides where each of the valleys is further spin-split, we derive the energy dispersion of these plasmons and their interaction with external charges. Emphasis in this work is given to sum rules from which we derive the interaction between intervalley plasmons and a test charge, as well as a compact single-plasmon pole expression for the dynamical Coulomb potential.

Ultrafast time-resolved differential reflectivity of Bi2Se3 crystals is studied using optical pump-probe spectroscopy. Three distinct relaxation processes are found to contribute to the initial transient reflectivity changes. The deduced relaxation t imescale and the sign of the reflectivity change suggest that electron-phonon interactions and defect-induced charge trapping are the underlying mechanisms for the three processes. After the crystal is exposed to air, the relative strength of these processes is altered and becomes strongly dependent on the excitation photon energy.
A previously unknown effect-giant spatial redistribution of the electric field strength in a crystal under illumination of the structure - was discovered and investigated in real photoresistors on high-resistivity (semi-insulating) semiconductor CdTe crystals (in metal-thin insulator- semiconductor-thin insulator -metal structures). A new concept is proposed for photoelectric phenomena in high- resistivity semiconductor crystals. The concept is based on the idea that the redistribution of the field under such conditions that the carrier lifetime remains unchanged under illumination plays a determining role in these phenomena. The nature of the effect is described, the dependence of the characteristics of the structures on the parameters of the crystal and the insulator layers is explained by the manifestation of this effect, and ways to produce structures with prescribed photoelectric characteristics for new devices and scientific methods are examined.
