Decays of Dsj*(2317) and Dsj(2460) Mesons in the Quark Model

We study the decay widths of the narrow resonances D_sj^*(2317) and D_sj(2460) in the chiral quark model, together with the well-known D^* and D_s^* mesons. All the parameters in our calculation are taken from Godfrey and Isgur's quark model except the π⁰－η mixing angle which is fixed by the D_s^* decay widths. The calculated electromagnetic decay widths agree with those from other groups and the experimental data available quite well. However, the pionic decay widths of D_sj(2317) and D_sj(2460) are too small to fit the experimental data. We suspect that the simple chiral quark pion axial-vector interaction Hamiltonian is not suitable for hadron strong decays of D_sj(2317) and D_sj(2460).     

Understanding the masses of the cs̄ states in Regge phenomenology

In the framework of Regge phenomenology, the masses of the charmed states cq̄ (q=u,d,s) lying on the 1³S₁-like trajectories are estimated. The overall agreement between our estimated masses and the recent predictions given using modified quark models by Matsuki et al., Lakhina et al. and Close et al. is good. The masses of the observed charmed states D_s0(2317), D_sJ(2860) and D_sJ(2690)/D_sJ(2700) can reasonably be reproduced in the picture of these charmed states as simple quark–antiquark configurations. We therefore suggest that D_s0(2317) can be identified with the cs̄(1³P₀) states. The possible assignments of the D_sJ(2860) and D_sJ(2690)/D_sJ(2700) are discussed. PACS 11.55.Jy; 14.40.-n     

D<Subscript>sJ</Subscript>(2860) and D<Subscript>sJ</Subscript>(2715)

Recently the Babar Collaboration reported a new cs̄ state, D_sJ(2860), and the Belle Collaboration observed D_sJ(2715). We investigate the strong decays of the excited cs̄ states using the ³ P ₀ model. After comparing the theoretical decay widths and decay patterns with the available experimental data, we are inclined to conclude that: (1) D_sJ(2715) is probably the 1^-(1³ D ₁) cs̄ state, although the 1^-(2³ S ₁) assignment is not completely excluded; (2) D_sJ(2860) seems unlikely to be the 1^-(2³ S ₁) and 1^-(1³ D ₁) candidate; (3) to consider D_sJ(2860) either as a 0⁺(2³ P ₀) or as a 3^-(1³ D ₃) cs̄ state is consistent with the experimental data; (4) the experimental search of D_sJ(2860) in the channels D_sη, DK^*, D^*K and D_s ^*η will be crucial to distinguish the above two possibilities.

Assignment of Isodoublet of 2^3S1 Meson Nonet

Inserting the masses of some states, which have been established in theexperiments or the theory of lattice QCD, we investigate the mass of theisodoublet of the 2³S₁ meson nonet. The agreement results, 1567±22.6MeV and 1576.8MeV, are given by two different approaches. We suggest that the assignment of 2³S₁ meson nonet should be re-examined in future experiments.     

Measurement of Angular Cross Correlation of the Cross Section Fluctuation in Dissipative Collision 27Al+27Al

The excitation function was measured from θ_lab=10.4° to 57.4° in dissipative collision ²⁷Al+²⁷Al with incident energy ranging from 114 to 123 MeV in step of 200 keV. The Angular-cross Correlation Functions (ACFs) of cross section fluctuation within large angle region were obtained through experiment for the first time. It is found that the angular coherent width is at least 40°. It is interesting that the ACFs is not simple bell shape but shows strong asymmetry. The over-all behavior is that ACF varies more quickly for the backward angles. Itis also noticed that the cross section fluctuation in the forward angle region (θ_cm<70°) shows much stronger angular coherence than in the backward angle region (θ_cm>70°). This angular dependence may be attributed to the coherent rotation effect of intermediate dinuclear system.     

Preparation and Luminescence Characteristics of Ca3Y2（BO3）4：Eu^3＋ Phosphor

Ca3Y2 （BO3）4：Eu^3＋ phosphor is synthesized by high temperature solid-state reaction method, and the Iuminescence characteristics are investigated. The emission spectrum exhibits two strong red emissions at 613 and 621 nm corresponding to the electric dipole ^5 Do- ^7F2 transition of Eu^3＋ under 365 nm excitation, the reason is that Eu^3＋ substituting for Y^3＋ occupies the non-centrosymmetric position in the crystal structure of Ca3 Y2 （BO3）4. The excitation spectrum for 613 nm indicates that the phosphor can be effectively excited by ultraviolet （UV） （254 nm, 365nm and 400nm） and blue （470nm） light. The effect of Eu^3＋ concentration on the emission intensity of Ca3 Y2 （BO3）4 ：Eu^3＋ phosphor is measured, the result shows that the emission intensities increase with increasing Eu^3＋ concentration, then decrease. The CIE colour coordinates of Ca3Y2 （BO3）4：Eu^3＋ phosphor is （0.639, 0.357） at 15mol% Eu^3＋.     

Hamiltonian analysis of a Green-Schwarz sigma model on a supercoset target with Z4m grading

We perform a Hamiltonian analysis of the Green-Schwarz sigma model on a supercoset target with Z_4m grading. The fundamental Poisson brackets between the spatial component of the flat currents depending on a continuous parameter, which can be thought of as a first step in the complete calculation of the algebra of the transition matrices, are obtained. When m=1, our results are reduced to the results of the type IIB Green-Schwarz superstring on AdS₅ × S⁵ background obtained by Das, Melikyan and Sato.     

Radial excitation states of η and η' in the chiral quark model

A chiral quark model is applied to calculate the spectra of pseudoscalar mesons η and η'. By analyzing the obtained spectra, we find that the mesons η'(2¹S₀), η(4¹S₀), η'(3¹S₀) and η'(4¹S₀) are the possible candidates of η(1760), X(1835), X(2120) and X(2370). The strong decay widths of these pseudoscalars to all the possible two-body decay channels are calculated within the framework of the ³P₀ model. Although the total width of η'(2¹S₀) is compatible with the BES Collaboration's experimental value for η(1760), the partial decay width to ωω is too small, which is not consistent with the BES result. If X(1835) is interpreted as η(4¹S₀), the total decay width is compatible with the experimental data, and the main decay modes will be mπ a₀(980) and m π a₀(1450), which needs to be checked experimentally. The assignment of X(2120) and X(2370) to η'(3¹S₀) and η'(4¹S₀) is disfavored in the present calculation because of the incompatibility of the decay widths.     

New band structures in 107Ag

High spin states in ¹⁰⁷Ag are studied via the ¹⁰⁰Mo(¹¹B, 4n)¹⁰⁷Ag reaction at an incident beam energy of 60 MeV. Prompt γ-γ coincidence and DCO ratios are measured by the detector arrays in CIAE. The level scheme has been updated and a new negative band belonging to ¹⁰⁷Ag is identified. The new negative side band has been constructed and its configuration is tentatively assigned to πg_9/2 νh_11/2(g_7/2/d_5/2).     

Vacuum Ultraviolet Excited Photoluminescence Properties of Novel Na3Y9O3（BO3）8：Tb^3＋ Phosphor

The novel vacuum ultraviolet （VUV） excited Na3 Y9O3 （BO3）8：Tb^3＋ （NYOB：Tb^3＋） green phosphor is prepared. Strong VUV photoluminescence and high quenching concentration of Tb^3＋ （20 wt%） are observed in NYOB： Tb^3＋ and the strong emission are correlated with the unique layer-type structure of NYOB. All the characteristic 4 f - 5d transitions of Tb^3＋ and the host absorption band in VUV region are identified in the excitation spectrum. Based on the results, the energy levels scheme of Tb^3＋ in NYOB：Tb^3＋ is first established. This newly developed NYOB：Tb^3＋ phosphor shows excellent optical properties when compared with the commercial Zn2SiO4：Mn^2＋ and would be a potential VUV-excited green phosphor.     

A Theoretical Study of Super-Excited States of F2

In the framework of quantum defect theory, we study super-excited states of F2 molecules which can dissociate into F^＋ （^3P2,1,0） and F^-（^1 So） ion-pair. Based on our calculation, we present a vibrational resolved assignment of the high precision photofragment yield spectra for F^- from the F2 ion-pair production.     

Branching ratio and CP asymmetry of Bs→K0*(1430)η(') decays in the PQCD approach

In the two-quark model supposition for K₀^*(1430), which can be viewed as either the first excited state (Scenario Ⅰ) or the lowest lying state (Scenario Ⅱ), the branching ratios and the direct CP-violating asymmetries for decays B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η^(') are studied by employing the perturbative QCD factorization approach. We find the following results: (a) The CP averaged branching ratios of B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η and B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η' are small and both in the order of 10^-7. If one views K₀^*(1430) as the lowest lying state, B (B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η)≈3.9×10^-7 and B (B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η')≈7.8×10^-7. (b) While the direct CP-violating asymmetries of these two decays are not small: if we still take the parameters of K₀^*(1430) in scenario Ⅱ, A_CP^dir (B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η)≈56.2% and A_CP^dir (B_s⁰→K₀^*0(1430)η')≈2.4%. (c) The annihilation contributions will play an important role in accounting for future data, because both the branching ratios and the direct CP asymmetries of these two decays are sensitive to the annihilation type contributions.     

Study of B<Subscript>s</Subscript>→D<Subscript>sJ</Subscript>(2317,2460)lν̄ semileptonic decays in the CQM model

Assuming D^* _sJ(2317) and D_sJ(2460) to be the (0⁺,1⁺) chiral partners of the regular particles D_s(1968) and D^* _s(2112), we calculate the semileptonic decays of B_s to D_s(1968), D^* _s(2112), D_sJ ^*(2317) and D_sJ(2460) in terms of the constituent quark meson model. The large branching ratios of the semileptonic decays of B_s to D_sJ ^*(2317) and D_sJ(2460) indicate that these two semileptonic decays should be seen in future experiments.

Measurement of the τ Polarization Asymmetry in τ→a1 v→π±π0π0v Decay at Z0 Peak

The τ polarization asymmetry in τ→a₁v→π^±π⁰ π⁰v decay at Z⁰ peak is measured using data collected by L3 detector at LEP in 1992 and 1993, A_pol=－0.239±0.126±0.100, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. And the effective electroweak mixing angle sin²θ_w=0.2197±0.0219 is derived.     

Particle-number conserving analysis for the 2-quasiparticle and high-K multi-quasiparticle states in doubly-odd 174,176Lu

Two-quasiparticle bands and low-lying excited high-K four-, six-, and eight-quasiparticle bands in the doubly-odd ^{174, 176}Lu are analyzed by using the cranked shell model (CSM) with the pairing correlations treated by a particle-number conserving (PNC) method, in which the blocking effects are taken into account exactly. The proton and neutron Nilsson level schemes for ^{174, 176}Lu are taken from the adjacent odd-A Lu and Hf isotopes, which are adopted to reproduce the experimental bandhead energies of the one-quasiproton and one-quasineutron bands of these odd-A Lu and Hf nuclei, respectively. Once the quasiparticle configurations are determined, the experimental bandhead energies and the moments of inertia of these two- and multi-quasiparticle bands are well reproduced by PNC-CSM calculations. The Coriolis mixing of the low-K (K=|Ω₁-Ω₂|) two-quasiparticle band of the Gallagher-Moszkowski doublet with one nucleon in the Ω = 1/2 orbital is analyzed.     

Chiral Lagrangian Treatment of 0^＋＋ Mesons and 0^＋＋ Glueballs

Within the framework of a nonlinear chiral Lagrangian the mass spectra and the decay properties of 0^＋＋ states below 2 GeV are studied. Assuming that f0（980）, a0（980）, K0（1430）, and f0（1500） comprise an SU（3） nonet, we make a detailed prediction about the static properties of the 0^＋＋ mesons. The substructure analysis of these states in terms of two- and four-quark components as well as a glueball component is carried out. We also consider the interaction Lagrangian and provide a preliminary study of the strong and radiative decays of the 0＋＋ mesons. The scalar glueball masses and partial widths are also presented. In view of the fact that few data of 0＋＋ mesons are clearly given in the present PDG （Particle Data Group） list and that the four-quark content of mesons is a hot issue both experimentally and theoretically, the predicted results of the paper may be helpful for upcoming experimental and theoretical studies of these mesons.     

Energy Correlations between Fragments and Light Charged Particles in Reaction of 25MeV/u 40Ar+115In

The correlations between the emitted fragments at θ_lab=15°and the light charged particles(LCPs) at the close geometry configuration in the reaction of 25MeV/u ⁴⁰Ar+¹¹⁵In were measured. The energy correlations between fragments (4≤Zf≤14) and the LCPs including proton, deuterium, tritium and a particle as well as the energy spectra of the LCPs were obtained. The result shows the existence of sequential decay mechanism. It is found that the peak position of angular correlation is at the small angles and the most probable correlation angle is at 2°or so; The peak positions of the two components in the energy spectra of LCPs increase gradually with the mass of correlated partner; The lighter primaly products are more easier to be excited and decay to IMFs and the LCPs. In the Sequential decay, the yield of the LCPs with more heavier mass is higher than that of the lighter LCPs. The result reveals that the total correlation yield ratios summed over the fragments of Z_f=4—14 are 1: 1. 3: 1. 78: 7. 57 for proton, deuterium, tritium and a particles, respectively.     

Neutron Halo of the Excited States in 14C

The experimental data of the ¹³C(d,p) ¹⁴C reaction are used to extract the asymptotic normalization coefficients of the overlap integral, the root-mean-square radii 2>^1/2 and the probabilities D₁ outside the range of the interaction radius R^N for the last neutron of the 1^－ and 0^－ excited states in ¹⁴C. We obtain 2>^1/2=4.57±0.30fm, 5.78±0.36fm and D 1=55.7%, 63.9% for these two states, respectively. These large values are the good sign that the 1^－ and 0^－ excited states in ¹⁴C are neutron halo states.     

Radiative decays J/ψ → η(')γ in perturbative QCD

With the recent investigations of the g^*g^*-η^(') transition form factor and η-η^' mixing scheme, we present an updated study of the radiative decays J/ψ → η^(')γ in perturbative QCD. The decays are taken as a test ground for the g^*g^*-η^(') transition form factors and the η-η^' mixing scheme. The form factors are found to be working for glunic η^' production and the mixing angle is constrained to be φ=35.1°±0.8°.
