Abstract:The internal 4-form field strengths with 7-dimensional indices have been constructed by de Wit and Nicolai in 1986. They are determined by the following six quantities: the 56-bein of 4-dimensional N = 8 gauged supergravity, the Killing vectors on the round seven-sphere, the covariant derivative acting on these Killing vectors, the warp factor, the field strengths with 4-dimensional indices and the 7-dimensional metric.In this paper, by projecting out the remaining mixed 4-form field strengths in an SU (8) ten… Show more

We study the system of equations derived twenty five years ago by B. de Wit and the first author [Nucl. Phys. B281 (1987) 211] as conditions for the consistent truncation of elevendimensional supergravity on AdS 4 × S 7 to gauged N = 8 supergravity in four dimensions. By exploiting the E 7(7) symmetry, we determine the most general solution to this system at each point on the coset space E 7(7) /SU(8). We show that invariants of the general solution are given by the fluxes in eleven-dimensional supergravity. This allows us to both clarify the explicit non-linear ansätze for the fluxes given previously and to fill a gap in the original proof of the consistent truncation. These results are illustrated with several examples.

“…24) Its zero pre-tilt angle results in a wider and more symmetrical viewing properties than that of the rubbing process. 25) The secondary effect of the PA process is a reduction of scratches and particles caused by the contact of the rubbing process. Figure 6 shows the comparison of viewing angle characteristics of rubbing versus PA IPS LCD.…”
We describe here the design of a simple and compact scanning tunnelling microscope based on the principle of an inertial slider mechanism. The Z feedback which adjusts the tip-sample gap separation is applied to the coarse movement piezo unlike the conventional method of applying it to the four quadrants of the tip scanning piezo. This method produces better stability in addition to eliminating the requirement of four high voltage amplifiers. Several simple features incorporated in the sample stage improve the stability and reliability considerably.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
