Title:
Two Short Subjects: New States Associated with Charmonium; Cosmic
Neutrinos & Relics
Abstract:
I will profile the states recently discovered above charm threshold,
explore the influence of open-charm channels on charmonium, and set
new targets for experiment. (ii) I will review the essentials of
ultrahigh-energy neutrino interactions, show how neutral-current
detection and flavor tagging can enhance the scientific potential of
neutrino telescopes, and present new results on neutrino encounters
with dark matter and on gravitational lensing of neutrinos.
