The Z → c \bar c → γγ*, Z → b \bar b → γγ* triangle diagrams and the Z → γψ, Z → γϒ decays

The approach to the Z → γψ and Z → γ? decay study is presented in detail, based on the sum rules for the Z → c $ \bar c $ → γγ* and Z → b $ \bar b $ → γγ* amplitudes and their derivatives. The branching ratios of the Z → γψ and Z → γ? decays are calculated for different hypotheses on saturation of the sum rules. The lower bounds of Σ _ψ BR(Z → γψ) = 1.95 × 10^?7 and Σ_υ BR(Z → γ?) = 7.23 × 10^?7 are found. Deviations from the lower bounds are discussed, including the possibility of BR(Z → γJ/ψ(1S)) ～ BR(Z → γ?(1S)) ～ 10^?6, that could be probably measured in LHC. The angular distributions in the Z → γψ and Z → γ? decays are also calculated.     

Phase Transformations α → β → γ → δ → ε in Titanium Hydride TiH x with Increase in Hydrogen Concentration

Structural phase transformations of the hcp bcc fct fcc fct ( ) type in titanium hydrides TiH _x experimentally found to occur with increase in the hydrogen concentration x are studied theoretically. Free energy phases are statistically calculated, and their concentration dependence is determined. Phase transformation temperatures are found from intersection points of free energy curves and from points of common tangents to the curves. The energy parameters of the system are estimated. The calculation results are compared with the experimental data.     

β-tin→Imma→sh phase transitions of germanium

New paths were designed for the investigations of the β-tin→Imma→sh phase transitions in nanocrystalline Ge under conditions of hydrostatic stress. A second-order transition between the β-tin and Imma phases was identified at 66 GPa, and a first-order transition between the Imma and sh phases was determined at 90 GPa. Superconductivity was obtained up to 190 GPa using the acquired structural data in first-principles calculations. This provides evidence that the standard electron-phonon coupling mechanism is responsible for superconductivity in Ge, as evidenced by the good agreement between the calculations and existing experiments.     

Alpha-decay branching ratios to high-lying excited-states of the 242Cm→238pu→ 234U →230Th→226Rn decay chain

We present a systematic calculation on the 0c-decay branching ratios to excited-states of an even-even α-decay chain 242Cm→238pu→234U →230Th→226Rn by the improved barrier penetration approach. The changes of the parities between the parent nuclei and the daughter nuclei are properly taken into account. The theoretical values are compared with the available experimental data and the deviation between them is within a factor of 5 in most cases.     

Inelastic final-state interactions in B → VV →π K processes

We study the final-state interactions in B →π K decays through B → VV →π K processes where the inelastic rescattering occurs via single pion exchange. The next-to-leading order low-energy effective Hamiltonian and Bauer-Stech-Wirbel (BSW) model are used to evaluate the weak transition matrix elements and final-state interactions. We found that the final-state interaction effects in B →ρ K^*→π K processes are significant. The Fleischer-Mannel relation for the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) angle γ can be significantly modified. Received: 13 August 1998     

Hyperfine Interaction of 140Ce(←140La) in CaB6

A ¹⁴⁰La(I ^π=3⁻, T _1/2=40.3 h)-doped layer has been produced in CaB₆ by means of radioactive isotope (RI) beam technique: ¹⁴⁰Cs(I ^π=1⁻, T _1/2=63.7 s) was implanted into CaB₆ and the radioactive equilibrium of ¹⁴⁰Ba–¹⁴⁰La was achieved. The concentration of La in CaB₆ was La/Ca ∼0.001. Obtained TDPAC spectra of the 2083 keV level of ¹⁴⁰Ce (I ^π=4⁺, T _1/2=3.4 ns, μ=+4.35±0.10 μ _N ) followed by the β decay of ¹⁴⁰La showed the existence of hyperfine magnetic fields: B _hyp=−15.0±0.5 T and −1.00±0.15 T. This revised version was published online in September 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

QCD corrections to b→sγγ and exclusive Bs→γγ decay

The short distance QCD corrections to b→sγγ are calculated in the leading logarithmic approximation. The equivalence of operator basis reduction for S-matrix elements by using the equations of motion or by proving a low energy theorem is discussed. We apply the above results to the exclusive B_s→γγ decay. The branching ratio of this decay is found to be 5×10⁻⁷ in the Standard Model. We also found that QCD corrections modify considerably the ratio between CP-even and CP-odd two-photon amplitudes.

We present a systematic calculation on the α-decay branching ratios to excited-states of an even-even α-decay chain ^242Cm → ^238Pu → ^234U → ^230Th → ^226Rn by the improved barrier penetration approach. The changes of the parities between the parent nuclei and the daughter nuclei are properly taken into account. The theoretical values are compared with the available experimental data and the deviation between them is within a factor of 5 in most cases.

The decaysK S 0 →γγ andK L 0 →γγ in the chiral approach

We calculate theK _S ^Emphasis>0 →γγ decay within the approach of non-linear realization of chiralS U(3)×S U(3). The branching ratio with respect to theπ ⁺ π ^- channel turns out to be 3.5×10^?6 and therefore similar to the result gotten previously by dispersion relation techniques in a non-chiral model. We also discuss theK _L ⁰ →γγ decay by taking into account new results onη ₁-η ₈ mixing from recent measurements of the η→γγ decay.     

B → X_sγ in BLMSSM

Applying the effective Lagrangian method,we study the flavor changing neutral current process b→ sγwithin the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model,where baryon and lepton numbers are local gauge symmetries.Constraints on the parameters are investigated numerically with the experimental data for the branching ratio of B→ X_sγ.Additionally,we present the corrections to direct CP-violation in B→ X_sγ and time-dependent CP-asymmetry in B→K~*γ.With appropriate assumptions on the parameters,we find the direct CP-violation Acp is very small,while one-loop contributions to S_(K~*_γ) can be significant.     

Cabibbo-angle-favored decays:D→SP

We have studiedD→K ₀ ^* π andD→Ka ₀ decays in the factorization approximation. The spectator model leads to a color-suppression of \(D^0 \to \bar K_0^{*0} \pi ^0 \) . However, due to the smallness off _{a 0}, a similar suppression does not occur for \(D^0 \to \bar K^0 a_0^0 \) . We show that the inclusion of annihilation contribution can lift the color-suppression of \(D^0 \to \bar K_0^{*0} \pi ^0 \) . We also include final state interactions in a dynamical model whereK (1830) pole in the direct channel dominates the annihilation process.     

ССЛЕДОВАНИЕ РАСПАДА Dy155 → Tb155

The gamma-spectrum and coincidences of gamma-rays appearing in Dy¹⁵⁵ Tb¹⁵⁵ decay have been measured with the aid of a scintillation gamma-spectrometer. The Dy¹⁵⁵ source has been obtained by a repeated chromatographic separation from Ho fraction produced by a spallations reaction Ta+p(E _p=660 MeV). Dy¹⁵⁵ appears as a decay product of Ho¹⁵⁵ (T _1/2= =45 min). In the gamma-spectrum new transitions in the energy range of 1170–2000 keV have been observed. As a result of- coincidence measurements we get a new energy level (1820±15 keV) of Tb¹⁵⁵.

Axion-Like Particles and the Higgs Decays h→PZ and h→Pe~+e~-

Axion-like particles(ALPs)are often defined as relatively light pseudoscalar particles and appear in many extensions of the Standard Model.Taking into account constraints on the free parameters from existing searches and explaining the g-2 deviation,we consider the contributions of ALPs with mass in the range of 1.5GeVm_am_h-m_Z to the exclusive Higgs decays h→PZ and h→Pe~+e~-with P being the pseudoscalar mesonsπ~0,η,η',η_c andη_b in a model-independent approach.We find that,in most of the parameter space range,the contributions of ALP to these decay-processes are ver.y small,while in the case of the ALP mass ma approximatel.y equaling the meson mass m_P,the contributions are significantly large.     

t →cγ and t →cg in Local Gauged Baryon and Lepton Numbers

In this paper, we calculate the top quark rare decays t →cγ and v in an extension of the standard model, where baryon number and lepton number are local gauge symmetries. Adopting reasonable assumptions on the parameter space, we find that the branching ratios of t →cγ and t →cg can reach 10^-6 and 10^-5 respectively, which can be detected in near future.
