On some positivity properties of the interquark potential in QCD.

We argue that the Fourier transform of the exponential e(-betaV(R)) of the static interquark potential in QCD is positive. It has been shown by Lieb some time ago that this property allows in the same limit of static, spin independent potential, to prove a certain mass relation between baryons with different quark flavors.

Weak and electromagnetic nuclear decay signatures for neutrino reactions in Super-Kamiokande.

We suggest the study of events in the Super-Kamiokande neutrino data due to charged- and neutral-current neutrino reactions followed by weak and/or electromagnetic decays of struck nuclei and fragments thereof. This study could improve the prospects of obtaining evidence for tau production from nu(mu)-->nu(tau) oscillations and could augment the data sample used to disfavor nu(mu)-->nu(sterile) oscillations.

A scheme for sequencing large DNA molecules by identifying local nuclear-induced effects.

An experimental scheme for sequencing large DNA molecules is proposed where DNA strands are replicated, with all nucleotides of a given kind marked with radioactive 32P. The marked strands are affixed to an appropriate substrate and are kept until most 32P atoms decay. The local damage caused by the decay is expected to allow the identification of the sites occupied by that particular nucleotide, using atomic scale microscopy (scanning tunneling or atomic force microscopy). Quantitative aspects and methodological considerations associated with the proposed scheme are discussed.
