Coalescence Production of Broad Near-Threshold Resonances

 Several cases are discussed when an amplitude of resonance production is a sharply varying function of the resonance mass, leading to considerable differences between true and visible resonance parameters. The case of production is considered in more details. As all non-trivial features are caused by the peculiarities of the triangle graphs (threshold and proper-moving complex singularities near physical region), the possible methods of their visualization in inclusive cross sections and polarization effects are also studied.

Molecule production via Feshbach resonance in bosonic systems

In this article, we review our recent theoretical works on producing ultracold molecules from ultracold bosonic atoms via magnetically tunable Feshbach resonances. Our analysis relies on a two-channel quantum microscopic model that accounts for many-body effects in the association process. We show that the picture of two-body molecular production depicted by the Landau-Zener model is significantly altered due to many-body effects. We derive an analytic expression for molecular conversion efficiency for the nonadiabatic linearly swept Feshbach resonance, that explains the discrepancy between the prediction of the Landau-Zener formula and the experimental data. With including the thermal dephasing effects in the oscillating magnetic field modulation Feshbach resoance, we reproduce the Lorentzian resonance lineshape and explain the maximum conversion efficiency observed in experiment.     

Possible exotic resonance effects in two-photon—two-nucleon processes

The discussion is given of a structure in the cross section of double-photon production pp→2γX below the pion threshold, observed recently by the Dib2γ Collaboration (JINR) and interpreted as a positive indication of the excitation of an exotic NN-decoupled resonance in this reaction, as well as of the related questions on possible exotic resonance effects in elastic Compton scattering on the deuteron and radiative pion capture in the pionic deuterium.     

Anomalous line shape of the cross section for e{+}e{-}--> hadrons in the center-of-mass energy region between 3.650 and 3.872 GeV

We observe an obvious anomalous line shape of the e;{+}e;{-}--> hadrons total cross sections in the energy region between 3.700 and 3.872 GeV. It is inconsistent with the explanation for only one simple psi(3770) resonance with a statistical significance of 7sigma. The anomalous line shape may be explained by two possible enhancements of the inclusive hadron production near the center-of-mass energies of 3.764 and 3.779 GeV, indicating that either there is likely a new structure in addition to the psi(3770) resonance around 3.773 GeV, or there are some physics effects reflecting the DD[over ] production dynamics.     

Coherent pion electroproduction on the deuteron in the Δ(1232) resonance region

Coherent pion electroproduction on the deuteron is studied in the ((1232) resonance region in the impulse approximation, i.e., neglecting pion rescattering and two-body effects. The elementary reaction on the nucleon is described in the framework of an effective Lagrangian approach including the dominant P₃₃(1232) resonance and the usual background terms of the Born contributions for ?⁰ production. We have studied the influence of these different contributions on the various structure functions which determine the unpolarized exclusive differential cross section in a variety of kinematic regions.     

原位核磁共振技术研究共催化剂类型以及光照波长对甲醇光催化重整产物的影响

本文采用原位核磁共振的方法研究了在真实固-液环境中共催化剂类型以及光照波长对甲醇光催化重整产物及光解水产氢产率的影响.结果发现,不同贵金属担载的锐钛矿型二氧化钛催化剂对甲醇光催化重整产物的产量和产率有着不同程度的影响,但是对其动力学特征影响不大.光照波长对甲醇光催化重整产物的产量也影响较大.通过对比甲醇氧化产率与产氢产率,发现共催化剂的种类对光催化反应速率及氧化还原能力起重要作用,且共催化剂的种类会影响体系氧化和还原能力之间的协同性.     

Forward-backward asymmetry in tt production from flavor symmetries

We show that the forward-backward asymmetry in top quark pair production can be enhanced by fields that transform nontrivially under the flavor group and satisfy minimal flavor violation, while at the same time the constraints from associated effects on the dσ(tt)/dM(tt) distribution, dijet resonance searches, same-sign top-pair production, and other phenomenology are satisfied. We work out two examples in detail: one where a scalar color antisextet field that is also an antisextet of SU(3)(U) enhances the forward-backward asymmetry and one where the enhancement arises from a vector color octet field that is also an octet of SU(3)(U).     

The effects of interactions between photon and the quark-gluon plasma on production of soft dileptons

We investigate the effects of interactions of the intermediate photons with the quark-gluon plasma on dilepton productions. The singular behaviour at the photon mass shell in the case of free photon is removed by the interactions. Instead, we find double resonance peaks near the photon mass shell due to the transverse and longitudinal modes. The effects of interactions further away fromM ²=0 is negligible and the photons effectively propagate as free particles in the plasma. The result of resummation is the enhancement of dilepton production rate, except in an extremely narrow region around each resonance peak, where its effect is to reduce the peak. The net result is more dilepton pairs come out of the plasma than in the one loop case. Both enhancement and reduction are partly due to Landau damping. Whereas the former is true over most range of the energy-momentum of the photon and is particularly prominent in region close to but not too close to the resonance peaks, the latter is effectively only true at the peaks.     

Radiostability of Allantoin by Using Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy

The radiosterilization potential and dosimetric feature of allantoin were investigated through the molecular degradations produced after ultraviolet and gamma irradiation using electron spin resonance, infrared, and ultraviolet spectroscopies and thermal measurement techniques (differential thermal analysis and the glass transition temperature). Although ultraviolet-irradiated allantoin presents no electron spin resonance signal, gamma irradiation exhibited an electron spin resonance signal of triplet appearance. Room temperature and high-temperature line intensity and spectrum area data and their variations with applied microwave power, storage time, annealing time, annealing temperature, and applied radiation dose were analyzed by assuming the production of two different types of radicals having different spectroscopic and decay characteristics. Based on its relatively stable nature toward gamma and ultraviolet radiations, it was concluded that allantoin itself and the products containing it can be sterilized by gamma and/or ultraviolet radiations without creating a great loss in its beneficial effects in the allowed radiosterilization dose limits.     

Strong and electromagnetic J/ψ and ψ(2S) decays into pion and kaon pairs

We discuss interference effects important for the form factors extraction in the vicinity of J/ψ andψ(2S)resonances in combination with resonance parameters determination.The implementation to the Monte Carlo event generator PHOKHARA of the J/ψ and ψ(2S)contributions to the muon,pion and kaon pairs production associated with a photon at next-to-leading order is also described.     

In-medium properties of the D13(1520) nucleon resonance

The in-medium properties of the D13(1520) nucleon resonance were studied via photoproduction of pi(0) mesons from nuclei (C, Ca, Nb, Pb) with the TAPS detector at the Mainz Microton accelerator. The inclusive (single and multiple pion production) data disagree with model predictions which explain the disappearance of the second resonance bump in total photoabsorption via a medium modification of the D13-->Nrho decay. The exclusive single pi(0) production data show no broadening of the resonance structure beyond Fermi smearing. Both results together cast doubt on attempts to explain the vanishing of the second resonance bump for nuclei by a broadening of the D13 resonance.     

Three-dimensional photonic microstructures produced by electric field assisted dissolution of metal nanoclusters in multilayer stacks

The formation of three dimensional (3D) photonic microstructures by the locally selective dissolution of metal clusters embedded in dielectric multilayer stacks is presented. Dissolution of clusters is performed by the simultaneous application of electric field and temperature. The produced photonic structures show a highly tailorable optical behavior that combines the interferential effects of multilayer stacks and the surface plasmon resonance of non-dissolved metal clusters. Due to its feasibility and the possibility to widely modify the optical properties of the resulting structures, the current approach represents a promising method for the production of novel components based on 3D-metallodielectric photonic structures.     

Correlated noise-based switches and stochastic resonance in a bistable genetic regulation system

The correlated noise-based switches and stochastic resonance are investigated in a bistable single gene switching system driven by an additive noise (environmental fluctuations), a multiplicative noise (fluctuations of the degradation rate). The correlation between the two noise sources originates from on the lysis-lysogeny pathway system of the λ phage. The steady state probability distribution is obtained by solving the time-independent Fokker-Planck equation, and the effects of noises are analyzed. The effects of noises on the switching time between the two stable states (mean first passage time) is investigated by the numerical simulation. The stochastic resonance phenomenon is analyzed by the power amplification factor. The results show that the multiplicative noise can induce the switching from “on” → “off” of the protein production, while the additive noise and the correlation between the noise sources can induce the inverse switching “off” → “on”. A nonmonotonic behaviour of the average switching time versus the multiplicative noise intensity, for different cross-correlation and additive noise intensities, is observed in the genetic system. There exist optimal values of the additive noise, multiplicative noise and cross-correlation intensities for which the weak signal can be optimal amplified.

Charge dependent effects in azimuthal two-particle correlations and cluster production

It is shown that neutral heavy cluster models provide a natural explanation of the recently observed charged dependent effects in azimuthal correlations between produced pions. This may be interpreted as evidence for identical particle effect and π⁺π^? resonance production in clusters.     

Low-Energy Three-Body Recombination Near a Feshbach Resonance

 Ultralow-energy three-body recombination of identical particles with internal degrees of freedom is considered. The study reveals two different mechanisms for recombination enhancement below and above resonance, namely, production of loosely bound dimers for positive scattering length and diminishing of the potential barrier in the entrance channel for negative . The recombination rate on both sides of a Feshbach resonance is found to diverge as a power of the resonance detuning. The results are in agreement with experimental data.

Soft and hard photon corrections for μ-pair production and Bhabha scattering in the presence of a resonance

In this paper previous calculations of radiative corrections to μ-pair production and Bhabha scattering are extended to the case where a resonance is present. In contrast to other investigations of radiative corrections to a narrow resonance this paper gives a complete discussion of Bhabha scattering and discusses both for μ-pair production and Bhabha scattering hard photon bremsstrahlung taking into account specific experimental conditions.     

Comparison of exchange mechanisms in πN → ϱN and pion photo- and electroproduction

Pho-, photo- and electroproduction are compared and contrasted from a t-channel exchange point of view. A common exchange mechanism is evident. Systematic differences associated with the variable mass of the vector particle are found - in particular, the mass dependence of the non-pole-like contributions is reminiscent of that seen in higher mass resonance production. Naive vector meson dominance arguments which do not allow for these mass-dependent effects are shown to disagree both qualitatively and quantitatively with the data. We emphasize the implications of this, and similar studies, for an understanding of absorption effects in two-body scattering.     

Bounds on an anomalous dijet resonance in W+jets production in pp collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV

We present a study of the dijet invariant mass spectrum in events with two jets produced in association with a W boson in data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.3 fb(-1) collected with the D0 detector at √s = 1.96 TeV. We find no evidence for anomalous resonant dijet production and derive upper limits on the production cross section of an anomalous dijet resonance recently reported by the CDF Collaboration, investigating the range of dijet invariant mass from 110 to 170 GeV/c(2). The probability of the D0 data being consistent with the presence of a dijet resonance with 4 pb production cross section at 145 GeV/c(2) is 8×10(-6).     

Resonance two-photon pair production on nuclei and on electrons

Expressions are obtained for the cross section of photoproduction of an electron-positron pair on a nucleus and on an electron in the field of a weak electromagnetic wave in the resonance region corresponding to the virtual electron (positron) being on the mass shell. The magnitude of these cross sections relative to ordinary pair production by a photon on a nucleus and on an electron is estimated. It is shown that this mechanism can enhance pair production by a photon on a nucleus and on an electron in the resonance region with simultaneous detection of the electron (positron) at a large angle.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 12–15, February, 1981.We thank A.
