We derive an expression for the entropy of a present dark matter halo described by a Navarro-Frenk-White modified model with a central core. The comparison of this entropy with the one of the halo at the freeze-out era allows us to obtain an expression for the relic abundance of neutralinos, which in turn is used to constrain the parameter space in mSUGRA models, when used with the WMAP observations. Moreover, by joning these results with the ones obtained from the usual abundance criteria, we are able to clearly discriminate validity regions among tan beta values of the mSUGRA model, by demanding both criteria to be consistent with the 2 sigma bounds of the WMAP observations for the relic density: 0.112 < Omega h^2 < 0.122. We found that for sign mu positive, small values of tan beta are not favored; only for tan beta ~ 50 are both criteria significantly consistent. The use of both criteria also allows us to put a lower bound on the neutralino mass of > 151 GeV.

We use Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) data in order to impose constraints on the exponent of Barrow entropy. The latter is an extended entropy relation arising from the incorporation of quantum-gravitational effects on the black-hole structure, param eterized effectively by the new parameter $Delta$. When considered in a cosmological framework and under the light of the gravity-thermodynamics conjecture, Barrow entropy leads to modified cosmological scenarios whose Friedmann equations contain extra terms. We perform a detailed analysis of the BBN era and we calculate the deviation of the freeze-out temperature comparing to the result of standard cosmology. We use the observationally determined bound on $ |frac{delta {T}_f}{{T}_f}|$ in order to extract the upper bound on $Delta$. As we find, the Barrow exponent should be inside the bound $Deltalesssim 1.4times 10^{-4}$ in order not to spoil the BBN epoch, which shows that the deformation from standard Bekenstein-Hawking expression should be small as expected.
In mSUGRA models the lightest supersymmetric particle (assumed to be the lightest neutralino) provides an excellent cold dark matter (CDM) candidate. The supersymmetric parameter space is significantly reduced, if the limits on the CDM relic density, obtained from WMAP data, are used. Assuming a vanishing trilinear scalar coupling A0 and fixed values of tan(beta), these limits result in narrow lines of allowed regions in the m0-m12 plane, the so called WMAP strips. In this analysis the trilinear coupling A0 has been varied within +/-4TeV resulting in largely extended areas in the m0-m12 plane which are no longer excluded.
We calculate the likelihood map in the full 7 dimensional parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) assuming universal boundary conditions on the supersymmetry breaking terms. Simultaneous variations of m_0, A_0, M_{1/2}, ta n beta, m_t, m_b and alpha_s(M_Z) are applied using a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm. We use measurements of b -> s gamma, (g-2)_mu and Omega_{DM} h^2 in order to constrain the model. We present likelihood distributions for some of the sparticle masses, for the branching ratio of B_s^0 -> mu^+ mu^- and for m_{stau}-m_{chi_1^0}. An upper limit of 2.10^{-8} on this branching ratio might be achieved at the Tevatron, and would rule out 29% of the currently allowed likelihood. If one allows for non thermal-neutralino components of dark matter, this fraction becomes 35%. The mass ordering allows the important cascade decay squark_L -> chi_2^0 -> slepton_R -> chi_1^0 with a likelihood of 24+/-4%. The stop coannihilation region is highly disfavoured, whereas the light Higgs region is marginally disfavoured.
Statistical analysis of alignments of large numbers of protein sequences has revealed sectors of collectively coevolving amino acids in several protein families. Here, we show that selection acting on any functional property of a protein, represented by an additive trait, can give rise to such a sector. As an illustration of a selected trait, we consider the elastic energy of an important conformational change within an elastic network model, and we show that selection acting on this energy leads to correlations among residues. For this concrete example and more generally, we demonstrate that the main signature of functional sectors lies in the small-eigenvalue modes of the covariance matrix of the selected sequences. However, secondary signatures of these functional sectors also exist in the extensively-studied large-eigenvalue modes. Our simple, general model leads us to propose a principled method to identify functional sectors, along with the magnitudes of mutational effects, from sequence data. We further demonstrate the robustness of these functional sectors to various forms of selection, and the robustness of our approach to the identification of multiple selected traits.

The few available data for the reactions $gamma p rightarrow K^{0} Sigma^{+}$ and $gamma n rightarrow K^{+} Sigma^{-}$ are compared to models developed for the processes $gamma p rightarrow K^{+} Sigma^{0}$ and $gamma p rightarrow K^{+} Lambda$. It i s found that some of these phenomenological models overpredict the measurements by up to a factor of 100. Fitting the data for all of these reactions leads to drastically reduced Born coupling constants.
