      A recondite, ponderous Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B arcane, oblivious Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C esoteric, preoccupied Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D cryptic, distance Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E esoteric, unaffected Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      "Arcane" perfectly fits the context, referring to something known or understood by only a few, and "oblivious" fits well because the physicist is so absorbed that he is unaware of anything else. Thus, the best answer is (b) arcane, oblivious.
