An expansion of Hartree-Fock and correlation energies,relativistic corrections and the dipole matrix element in the powers of of 1/Z

Feynman diagrammatic technique was used for the calculation of Hartree-Fock and correlation energies, relativistic corrections, dipole matrix element. The whole energy of atomic system was defined as a polen-electron Green function. Breit operator was used for the calculation of relativistic corrections. The Feynman diagrammatic technique was developed for 〈H_B>. Analytical expressions for the contributions from diagrams were received. The calculations were carried out for the terms of such configurations as 1s² 2sⁿ¹ 2pⁿ² (2 ≧n₁≧ 0, 6≧ n₂ ≧ 0). Numerical results are presented for the energies of the terms in the form $$E = E_0 Z^2 + \Delta {\rm E}_2 + \frac{1}{Z}\Delta {\rm E}_3 + \frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{4}(E_0^r + \Delta {\rm E}_1^r Z^3 )$$ and for fine structure of the terms in the form $$\begin{gathered} \left\langle {1s^2 2s^{n_1 } 2p^{n_2 } LSJ|H_B |1s^2 2s^{n_1 \prime } 2p^{n_2 \prime } L\prime S\prime J} \right\rangle = \hfill \\ = ( - 1)^{\alpha + S\prime + J} \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {L S J} \\ {S\prime L\prime 1} \\ \end{array} } \right\}\frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{4}(Z - A)^3 [E^{(0)} (Z - B) + \varepsilon _{co} ] + \hfill \\ + ( - 1)^{L + S\prime + J} \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {L S J} \\ {S\prime L\prime 2} \\ \end{array} } \right\}\frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{4}(Z - A)^3 \varepsilon _{cc} . \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ Dipole matrix elements are necessary for calculations of oscillator strengths and transition probabilities. For dipole matrix elements two members of expansion by 1/Z have been obtained. Numerical results were presented in the form P(a,a′) = a/Z(1+τ/Z).     

Two-spin asymmetry in\mathop p\limits^{( - )} p reactions and spin-dependent parton distributions

The two-spin asymmetries \(A_{LL}^{\pi ^0 } (\mathop p\limits^{( - )} p)\) and \(A_{LL}^\gamma (\mathop p\limits^{( - )} p)\) are calculated in a new model incorporating the nonrelativistic quark model and the parton model which interprets well EMCg ₁ ^p (x) data. The model can reproduce the experimental data for inclusive π⁰ rather well.     

\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*} chemiluminescence study at low and elevated pressures

Chemiluminescence experiments have been performed to assess the state of current $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ kinetics modeling. The difficulty with modeling $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ lies in its broad emission spectrum, making it a challenge to isolate it from background emission of species such as CH^? and CH₂O^?. Experiments were performed in a mixture of 0.0005H₂+0.01N₂O+0.03CO+0.9595Ar in an attempt to isolate $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ emission. Temperatures ranged from 1654 K to 2221 K at two average pressures, 1.4 and 10.4 atm. The unique time histories of the various chemiluminescence species in the unconventional mixture employed at these conditions allow for easy identification of the $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ concentration. Two different wavelengths to capture $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ were used; one optical filter was centered at 415 nm and the other at 458 nm. The use of these two different wavelengths was done to verify that broadband $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ was in fact being captured, and not emission from other species such as CH^? and CH₂O^?. As a baseline for time history and peak magnitude comparison, OH^? emission was captured at 307 nm simultaneously with the two $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ filters. The results from the two $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ filters were consistent with each other, implying that indeed the same species (i.e., $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ ) was being measured at both wavelengths. A first-generation kinetics model for $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ and CH₂O^? was developed, since no comprehensively validated one exists to date. CH₂O^? and CH^? were ruled out as being present in the experiments at any measurable level, based on calculations and comparisons with the data. Agreement with the $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ model was only fair, which necessitates future improvements for a better understanding of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ chemiluminescence as well as the kinetics of the ground state species.     

Some Properties of Generalized Quantum Operations

Let $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the set of all bounded linear operators on the separable Hilbert space  $\mathcal{H}$ . A (generalized) quantum operation is a bounded linear operator defined on  $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ , which has the form $\varPhi_{\mathcal{A}}(X)=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}A_{i}XA_{i}^{*}$ , where $A_{i}\in\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ (i=1,2,…) satisfy $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}A_{i}A_{i}^{*}\leq \nobreak I$ in the strong operator topology. In this paper, we establish the relationship between the (generalized) quantum operation $\varPhi_{\mathcal{A}}$ and its dual $\varPhi_{\mathcal {A}}^{\dag}$ with respect to the set of fixed points and the noiseless subspace. In particular, we also partially characterize the extreme points of the set of all (generalized) quantum operations and give some equivalent conditions for the correctable quantum channel.     

Experimental and numerical study of chemiluminescent species in low-pressure flames

Chemiluminescence has been observed since the beginning of spectroscopy, nevertheless, important facts still remain unknown. Especially, reaction pathways leading to chemiluminescent species such as OH^?, CH^?, $\mathrm{C}_{2}^{*}$ , and $\mathrm{CO}_{2}^{*}$ are still under debate and cannot be modeled with standard codes for flame simulation. In several cases, even the source species of spectral features observed in flames are unknown. In recent years, there has been renewed interest in chemiluminescence, since it has been shown that this radiation can be used to determine flame parameters such as stoichiometry and heat release under some conditions. In this work, we present a reaction mechanism which predicts the OH^?, CH^? (in A- and B-state), and $\mathrm{C}_{2}^{*}$ emission strength in lean to fuel-rich stoichiometries. Measurements have been performed in a set of low-pressure flames which have already been well characterized by other methods. The flame front is resolved in these measurements, which allows a comparison of shape and position of the observed chemiluminescence with the respective simulated concentrations. To study the effects of varying fuels, methane flame diluted in hydrogen are measured as well. The 14 investigated premixed methane–oxygen–argon and methane–hydrogen–oxygen–argon flames span a wide parameter field of fuel stoichiometry (?=0.5 to 1.6) and hydrogen content (H₂ vol%=0 to 50). The relative comparison of measured and simulated excited species concentrations shows good agreement. The detailed and reliable modeling for several chemiluminescent species permits correlating heat release with all of these emissions under a large set of flame conditions. It appears from the present study that the normally used product of formaldehyde and OH concentration may be less well suited for such a prediction in the flames under investigation.     

35Cl NQR spectra of group 1 and silver dichloromethanesulfonates

The dichloromethanesulfonates of silver and other +1-charged cations, M ^?+?(Cl₂CHSO $_{3}^{-})$ (M = Ag, Tl, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs) were synthesized and studied by ³⁵Cl NQR. Dichloromethanesulfonic acid was prepared by the methanolysis of dichloromethanesulfonyl chloride, and was then neutralized with the carbonates of the +1-charged cations to produce the corresponding dichloromethanesulfonate salt. This NQR study completed the investigation of the chloroacetates and chloromethanesulfonates of silver, Ag^?+?(Cl _x CH_3???x SO $_{3}^{-})$ and Ag^?+?(Cl _x CH_3???x CO $_{2}^{-})$ , and suggests (1) that the ability of organochlorine atoms to coordinate to silver decreases as the number of electron-withdrawing groups (Cl, SO $_{3}^{-}$ , CO $_{2}^{-})$ attached to the carbon atom increases; (2) that the unusually large NQR spectral width found among M ^?+?(Cl₂CHCO $_{2}^{-})$ salts is not present among M ^?+?(Cl₂CHSO $_{3}^{-})$ salts, and therefore is not generally characteristic of the dichloromethyl group in salts.     

Measurement of all Deuteron Analyzing Powers for {\overrightarrow{d} + p} Elastic Scattering at 294 MeV/Nucleon

We have measured all deuteron analyzing powers ${(A_{y}^{d}, A_{yy}, A_{xx}, A_{xz})}$ for deuteron-proton elastic scattering at 294 MeV/nucleon in order to study the properties of three nucleon forces (3 NFs). Measurement was made at in an angular range of ${\theta_{{\rm c.m.}} = 35.6^{\circ} - 163.0^{\circ}}$ . Obtained data were compared with Faddeev calculations with and without the 3 NFs. At ${\theta_{{\rm c.m.}}\lesssim 120^{\circ}}$ all the data have general agreement with the calculations, while the measured data at ${\theta_{{\rm c.m.}} \gtrsim 120^{\circ}}$ are not explained by any theoretical calculations. These results were consistent with those at 250 MeV/nucleon.     

η , \eta{^\prime} mixing angle and \eta{^\prime} gluonium content extraction from the KLOE Rφ measurement⋆

In this report the extraction of the η , $ \eta{^\prime}$ mixing angle and of the $ \eta{^\prime}$ gluonium content from the R _φ = Br(φ(1020) → $ \eta{^\prime}$ γ)/Br(φ(1020) → ηγ) is updated. The $ \eta{^\prime}$ gluonium content is estimated by fitting R _φ , together, with other decay branching ratios. The extracted parameters are: Z ² _G = 0.12±0.04 and ?_P = (40.4±0.9)^° .     

Analysis of the {1\over2}^{\pm} flavor antitriplet heavy baryon states with QCD sum rules

In this article, we study the masses and pole residues of the ${1\over2}^{\pm}$ flavor antitriplet heavy baryon states ( $\varLambda _{c}^{+}$ , $\varXi _{c}^{+},\varXi _{c}^{0})$ and ( $\varLambda _{b}^{0}$ , $\varXi _{b}^{0},\varXi _{b}^{-})$ by subtracting the contributions from the corresponding ${1\over2}^{\mp}$ heavy baryon states with the QCD sum rules, and observe that the masses are in good agreement with the experimental data and make reasonable predictions for the unobserved ${1\over2}^{-}$ bottom baryon states. Once reasonable values of the pole residues λ _Λ and λ _Ξ are obtained, we can take them as basic parameters to study the relevant hadronic processes with the QCD sum rules.     

Evolution Law of the Optical Field of Degenerate Parametric Amplifier in Dissipative Channel

We explore the time-evolution law of the optical field of degenerate parametric amplifier (DPA) in dissipative channel. It turns out that its density operator at initial time ρ ₀ = A exp(E ^? a ^?2) exp(a ^? alnλ) exp(E a ²) evolves into \(\rho (t)= \frac {A}{\lambda ^{\prime }}\) \(\exp \left (\frac {E^{\ast }e^{-2\kappa t}a^{\dag 2}}{ \lambda ^{\prime 2}}\right )\exp \left \{a^{\dag }a\ln \frac {[\lambda -(\lambda ^{2}-4|E|^{2})T]e^{-2\kappa t}}{\lambda ^{\prime 2}}\right \} \exp \left (\frac { Ee^{-2\kappa t}a^{2}}{\lambda ^{\prime 2}}\right ),\) where κ is the damping constant of the channel, T = 1 ? e ^?2κt , and \(\lambda ^{\prime }\equiv \sqrt {(1-\lambda T)^{2}-4|E|^{2}T^{2}}.\) We employ the method of integration (or summation) within an ordered (normally ordered or antinormally ordered) of operators to overcome the obstacles in the process of calculation.     

Non-Isothermal Boundary in the Boltzmann Theory and Fourier Law

In the study of the heat transfer in the Boltzmann theory, the basic problem is to construct solutions to the following steady problem: $$v \cdot \nabla _{x}F =\frac{1}{{\rm K}_{\rm n}}Q(F,F),\qquad (x,v)\in \Omega \times \mathbf{R}^{3}, \quad \quad (0.1) $$ v · ? x F = 1 K n Q ( F , F ) , ( x , v ) ∈ Ω × R 3 , ( 0.1 ) $$F(x,v)|_{n(x)\cdot v<0} = \mu _{\theta}\int_{n(x) \cdot v^{\prime}>0}F(x,v^{\prime})(n(x)\cdot v^{\prime})dv^{\prime},\quad x \in\partial \Omega,\quad \quad (0.2) $$ F ( x , v ) | n ( x ) · v < 0 = μ θ ∫ n ( x ) · v ′ > 0 F ( x , v ′ ) ( n ( x ) · v ′ ) d v ′ , x ∈ ? Ω , ( 0.2 ) where Ω is a bounded domain in ${\mathbf{R}^{d}, 1 \leq d \leq 3}$ R d , 1 ≤ d ≤ 3 , K_n is the Knudsen number and ${\mu _{\theta}=\frac{1}{2\pi \theta ^{2}(x)} {\rm exp} [-\frac{|v|^{2}}{2\theta (x)}]}$ μ θ = 1 2 π θ 2 ( x ) exp [ - | v | 2 2 θ ( x ) ] is a Maxwellian with non-constant(non-isothermal) wall temperature θ(x). Based on new constructive coercivity estimates for both steady and dynamic cases, for ${|\theta -\theta_{0}|\leq \delta \ll 1}$ | θ - θ 0 | ≤ δ ? 1 and any fixed value of K_n, we construct a unique non-negative solution F _s to (0.1) and (0.2), continuous away from the grazing set and exponentially asymptotically stable. This solution is a genuine non-equilibrium stationary solution differing from a local equilibrium Maxwellian. As an application of our results we establish the expansion ${F_s=\mu_{\theta_0}+\delta F_{1}+O(\delta ^{2})}$ F s = μ θ 0 + δ F 1 + O ( δ 2 ) and we prove that, if the Fourier law holds, the temperature contribution associated to F ₁ must be linear, in the slab geometry.     

Large Time Asymptotics for the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili Equation

We study the large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations $$\left\{\begin{array}{ll} u_{t} + u_{xxx} + \sigma \partial_{x}^{-1}u_{yy} = -\partial_{x}u^{2}, \quad \quad (x, y) \in {\bf R}^{2}, t \in {\bf R},\\ u(0, x, y) = u_{0}( x, y), \, \quad \quad \qquad \qquad (x, y) \in {\bf R}^{2},\end{array}\right.$$ where σ = ±1 and \({\partial_{x}^{-1} = \int_{-\infty}^{x}dx^{\prime} }\) . We prove that the large time asymptotics of the derivative u _x of the solution has a quasilinear character.     

Study of f 0(980) and f 0(1500) from B s →f 0(980)π,f 0(1500)π decays

In this paper, we analyze the scalar mesons f ₀(980) and f ₀(1500) from the decays $\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(980)\pi^{0},\allowbreak f_{0}(1500)\pi^{0}$ within Perturbative QCD approach. From the leading-order calculations, we find that (a) in the allowed mixing angle ranges, the branching ratio of $\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(980)\pi^{0}$ is about (1.0～1.6)×10^?7, which is smaller than that of $\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(980)K^{0}$ (the difference is a few times even one order); (b) the decay $\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(1500)\pi^{0}$ is better to distinguish between the lowest lying state or the first excited state for f ₀(1500), because the branching ratios for two scenarios have about one-order difference in most of the mixing angle ranges; and (c) the direct CP asymmetries of $\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(1500)\pi^{0}$ for two scenarios also exists great difference. In scenario II, the variation range of the value ${\mathcal{A}}^{\mathrm{dir}}_{CP}(\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(1500)\pi^{0})$ according to the mixing angle in scenario II is very small, except for the values for mixing angles near 90° or 270°, while the variation range of ${\mathcal{A}}^{\mathrm{dir}}_{CP}(\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(1500)\pi^{0})$ in scenario I is very large. Compared with the future data for the decay $\bar{B}^{0}_{s}\to f_{0}(1500)\pi^{0}$ , it is easy to determine the nature of the scalar meson f ₀(1500).     

Remarks on the measurement of polarization of6Li-ions

The determination of the polarization of⁶Li-ions is discussed. It is shown, that independent of the reaction mechanism the following relations between the analysing powers for polarized deuterons and polarized⁶Li-ions hold for the⁶Li(d, α)⁴He-reaction: for all scattering angles \(\vartheta : A_{y y}^{(d)} (E, \vartheta ) = A_{y y}^{(Li)} (E, \vartheta )\) for the scattering angle \(\vartheta = \pi /2\) only: $$A_{z z}^{(d)} (E, \vartheta = \pi /2) = A_{z z}^{(Li)} (E, \vartheta = \pi /2)$$ and $$A_{x x - y y}^{(d)} (E, \vartheta = \pi /2) = A_{x x - y y}^{(Li)} (E, \vartheta = \pi /2)$$ . Using these identities the determination of the polarization of⁶Li-beams is reduced to the experimentally well established determination of the polarization of deuterons.     

Truncated Connectivities in a Highly Supercritical Anisotropic Percolation Model

We consider an anisotropic bond percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ , with p=(p _h ,p _v )∈[0,1]², p _v >p _h , and declare each horizontal (respectively vertical) edge of $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ to be open with probability p _h (respectively p _v ), and otherwise closed, independently of all other edges. Let $x=(x_{1},x_{2}) \in\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ with 0<x ₁<x ₂, and $x'=(x_{2},x_{1})\in\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ . It is natural to ask how the two point connectivity function $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbf{p}}(\{0\leftrightarrow x\})$ behaves, and whether anisotropy in percolation probabilities implies the strict inequality $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbf{p}}(\{0\leftrightarrow x\})>\mathbb{P}_{\mathbf {p}}(\{0\leftrightarrow x'\})$ . In this note we give an affirmative answer in the highly supercritical regime.     

Z 0 boson decays to B^{(*)}_{c} meson and its uncertainties

The planned new e ⁺ e ^? collider with high luminosity shall provide another useful platform to study the properties of the doubly heavy B _c meson in addition to the hadronic colliders as LHC and TEVATRON. In the ‘New Trace Amplitude Approach’, we calculate the production of the spin-singlet B _c and the spin-triplet $B^{*}_{c}$ mesons through the Z ⁰ boson decays, where uncertainties for the production are also discussed. Our results show $\varGamma_{(^{1}S_{0})}=81.4^{+102.1}_{-40.5}$  KeV and $\varGamma_{(^{3}S_{1})}=116.4^{+163.9}_{-62.8}$  KeV, where the errors are caused by varying m _b and m _c within their reasonable regions.     

Global Existence for the Critical Dissipative Surface Quasi-Geostrophic Equation

In this article, we study the critical dissipative surface quasi-geostrophic equation (SQG) in ${\mathbb{R}^2}$ R 2 . Motivated by the study of the homogeneous statistical solutions of this equation, we show that for any large initial data θ ₀ liying in the space ${\Lambda^{s} (\dot{H}^{s}_{uloc}(\mathbb{R}^2)) \cap L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^2)}$ Λ s ( H ˙ u l o c s ( R 2 ) ) ∩ L ∞ ( R 2 ) the critical (SQG) has a global weak solution in time for 1/2 <  s <  1. Our proof is based on an energy inequality verified by the equation ${(SQG)_{R,\epsilon}}$ ( S Q G ) R , ? which is nothing but the (SQG) equation with truncated and regularized initial data. By classical compactness arguments, we show that we are able to pass to the limit ( ${R \rightarrow \infty}$ R → ∞ , ${\epsilon \rightarrow 0}$ ? → 0 ) in ${(SQG)_{R,\epsilon}}$ ( S Q G ) R , ? and that the limit solution has the desired regularity.     

Charged Higgs observability through associated production with W ± at a muon collider

The observability of a charged Higgs boson produced in association with a W boson at future muon colliders is studied. The analysis is performed within the MSSM framework. The charged Higgs is assumed to decay to $t\bar{b}We study $B_{s}^{0} \to J/\psi f_{0}(980)$ decays, the quark content of f ₀(980) and the mixing angle of f ₀(980) and ??(600). We calculate not only the factorizable contribution in the QCD factorization scheme but also the nonfactorizable hard spectator corrections in QCDF and pQCD approach. We get a result consistent with the experimental data of $B_{s}^{0} \to J/\psi f_{0}(980)$ and predict the branching ratio of $B_{s}^{0}$ ?CJ/???. We suggest two ways to determine f ₀?C?? mixing angle ??. Using the experimental measured branching ratio of $B_{s}^{0} \to J/\psi f_{0}(980)$ , we can get the f ₀?C?? mixing angle ?? with some theoretical uncertainties. We suggest another way to determine the f ₀?C?? mixing angle ?? using both experimental measured decay branching ratios $B_{s}^{0} \to J/\psi f_{0}(980) (\sigma)$ to avoid theoretical uncertainties.     

Liouville-Type Theorems for the Forced Euler Equations and the Navier–Stokes Equations

In this paper we study the Liouville-type properties for solutions to the steady incompressible Euler equations with forces in ${\mathbb {R}^N}$ . If we assume “single signedness condition” on the force, then we can show that a ${C^1 (\mathbb {R}^N)}$ solution (v, p) with ${|v|^2+ |p| \in L^{\frac{q}{2}}(\mathbb {R}^N),\,q \in (\frac{3N}{N-1}, \infty)}$ is trivial, v = 0. For the solution of the steady Navier–Stokes equations, satisfying ${v(x) \to 0}$ as ${|x| \to \infty}$ , the condition ${\int_{\mathbb {R}^3} |\Delta v|^{\frac{6}{5}} dx < \infty}$ , which is stronger than the important D-condition, ${\int_{\mathbb {R}^3} |\nabla v|^2 dx < \infty}$ , but both having the same scaling property, implies that v = 0. In the appendix we reprove Theorem 1.1 (Chae, Commun Math Phys 273:203–215, 2007), using the self-similar Euler equations directly.
