Measurement of ${M_{W^{+}}-M_{W^{-}}}$ at LHC

This paper is the second of the series of papers proposing dedicated strategies for precision measurements of the Standard Model parameters at the LHC. The common feature of these strategies is their robustness with respect to the systematic measurement and modeling error sources. Their impact on the precision of the measured parameters is reduced using dedicated observables and dedicated measurement procedures which exploit flexibilities of the collider and detector running modes. In the present paper we focus our attention on the measurement of the charge asymmetry of the W-boson mass. This measurement is of primordial importance for the LHC experimental program, both as a direct test of the charge-sign-independent coupling of the W-bosons to the matter particles and as a necessary first step towards the precision measurement of the charge-averaged W-boson mass. We propose and evaluate the LHC-specific strategy to measure the mass difference between the positively and negatively charged W-bosons, M_W⁺-M_W^-M_{W^{+}}-M_{W^{-}} . We show that its present precision can be improved at the LHC by a factor of 20. We argue that such a precision is beyond the reach of the standard measurement and calibration methods imported to the LHC from the Tevatron program.     

The structures and properties of FeSin/FeSi\hbox{$_{\mathsf{n}}^{+}$}+n/FeSi\hbox{$_{\mathsf{n}}^{-}$}−n (n = 1 ~ 8) clusters

The geometry, stability, and electronic properties of iron-doped silicon clusters FeSi _n /FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{+}$}+n/FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{-}$}?n (n = 1 ~ 8) have been systematically investigated using the density functional theory (DFT) approach at the B3LYP/6-311+G* level. Our results show that the ground state structures of FeSi _n /FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{+}$}+n/FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{-}$}?n change from planar to three-dimensional for n > 3. Bipyramidal structures, or their face-capped isomers, are favored for the larger clusters. For neutral FeSi _n clusters, their ground state structures are the trigonal, tetragonal, capped tetragonal, capped pentagonal, and combined tetragonal bipyramids for n = 4 ~ 8, respectively. The lowest-energy structures of the anionic FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{-}$}?n clusters essentially retain similar frameworks to their neutral counterparts, while those of the cationic FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{+}$}+n clusters are significantly deformed; this is confirmed by their calculated ionization potential and electronic affinity values. For most of the stable structures, the spin electronic configurations are s = 1 or 2 for neutral FeSi _n , s = 3/2 or 5/2 for ionic FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{+}$}+n/FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{-}$}?n. The average binding energy values generally increase with increasing cluster size, indicating the clusters can continue to gain energy during the growth process. Fragmentation and second-order energy peaks (maxima) are found at n = 2, 5, and 7 for FeSi _n /FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{-}$}?n, n = 4 and 6 for FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{+}$}+n, suggesting that these clusters possess higher relative stability. Furthermore, the HOMO-LUMO gap values show that anionic FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{-}$}?n have greater chemical reactivity than cationic FeSi\hbox{$_{n}^{+}$}+n and neutral FeSi _n , except when n = 7.     

Sum rule estimate of the subleading non-perturbative contributions to Bs–$\bar{ B}_{s}$ mixing

We use QCD sum rules to compute the matrix elements of the ΔB=2 operators appearing in the heavy-quark expansion of the width difference of the B _s mass eigenstates. The main focus of our analysis is on the subleading operators R ₂ and R ₃, which appear at next-to-leading order in the 1/m _b expansion. The matrix elements of these operators are already essential for precise phenomenology, but their calculation in lattice QCD is lacking and the values given here provide a first estimate of their values. We conclude that the violation of the factorization approximation for these matrix elements due to non-perturbative vacuum condensates is as low as 1–2%.

t\bar{t}H\to t\bar{t}\tau^{+}\tau^{-} —toward the measurement of the top-Yukawa coupling

One of the main goals of the ATLAS experiment is to measure various Higgs boson couplings as accurately as possible. Such a measurement is mandatory for a full understanding of the Higgs sector. One of the most challenging measurements of the Higgs boson properties is the determination of the Yukawa coupling to the top quark. To complement the $t\bar {t}H\rightarrow t\bar {t}\ensuremath {\mathit {b}\bar {\mathit {b}}}$ channel, which is the most significant in the low Higgs mass region (m _H ～120 GeV), we introduce a feasibility study of the $t\bar {t}H$ channel with the Higgs decaying to a pair of τ leptons. The signal events were reconstructed using the full and the fast simulation of the ATLAS detector. It is shown that both the distributions and the number of expected events after the same cuts agree, and that we can use the fast simulation to complete the analysis. We obtain a significance of 1.6σ for the low luminosity condition (30 fb^?1) and m _H =120 GeV, and 2.0σ for the high luminosity condition (300 fb^?1) and m _H =120 GeV. The observability of Higgs boson in this channel is demonstrated to be very marginal, even in the absence of taking into account $t\bar {t}+\mathrm{jets}$ .     

B→K transition form factor up to $\mathcal{O}(1/m^2_b)$ within the kT factorization approach

We apply the k_T factorization approach to deal with the B→K transition form factor F^B→K _+,0(q²) in the large recoil regions. The B-meson wave functions Ψ_B and Ψ̄_B that include the 3-particle Fock states’ contributions are adopted to give a consistent PQCD analysis of the form factor up to . It has been found that the two wave functions Ψ_B and Ψ̄_B can give sizable contributions to the form factor and should be kept for a better understanding of the B-meson decays. Next the contributions from different twist structures of the kaon wave function are discussed, including SU_f(3)-breaking effects. A sizable contribution from the twist-3 wave function Ψ_p is found, whose model dependence is discussed by taking two groups of parameters that are determined by different distribution amplitude moments obtained in the literature. It is also shown that F^B→K _+,0(0)=0.30±0.04 and [F^B→K _+,0(0)/F^B→π _+,0(0)]=1.13±0.02, which are more reasonable and consistent with the light-cone sum rule results in the large recoil regions.

(TiO2)n(n=3-6)团簇吸附水分子的理论研究

给出了优化小分子在团簇表面吸附结构的遗传算法.结合经验势函数,搜寻了水分子在(TiO2)n(n=3-6)团簇上可能的吸附方式;利用B3LYP/6-31G**方法对各种吸附结构进行了优化.结果表明水分子主要通过O原子以非解离方式吸附到团簇中配位数较低或位置比较凸出的Ti原子上.分子轨道分析表明,水分子与团簇之间的成键主要来自吸附位Ti原子3s3p轨道的贡献,水分子的轨道保持了气相水分子中的基本特征,但离域化程度增大.NBO分析表明,Ti原子通过3sp向水中氧原子转移电荷,而水分子又通过轨道离域把电荷反馈到由Ti的3d4s等轨道形成的反键轨道.虽然吸附后水中O,H原子的净电量增加,但O-H键减弱.吸附后水分子的振动频率发生红移.     

Quantum Groups GLp,q(2)- and $\mathit{SU}_{q_{1}/q_{2}}(2)$ -Invariant Bosonic Gases: A Comparative Study

We discuss the algebras, representations, and thermodynamics of quantum group bosonic gas models with two different symmetries: GL _p,q (2) and . We establish the nature of the basic numbers which follow from these GL _p,q (2)- and -invariant bosonic algebras. The Fock space representations of both of these quantum group invariant bosonic oscillator algebras are analyzed. It is concisely shown that these two quantum group invariant bosonic particle gases have different algebraic and high-temperature thermo-statistical properties.     

Mössbauer spectroscopic studies of (n-C n H2n +1NH3)2SnCl6 (n=6, 8-18) complexes

Temperature-dependent Mössbauer experiments have been carried out to examine the lattice-dynamic properties of tin atoms in complexes of the type (n-C _n H_2n+1NH₃)₂SnCl₆ (6 n 12). The temperature dependence of the area intensity of Mössbauer lines for the studied complexes are correlated to the motion of long alkyl chains. Solid-solid phase transitions were clearly found in all the complexes above room temperature, accompanied by an increase in the interlayer spacing (6n 18). The transition temperature and transition entropy increase linearly with the number of carbon atoms in alkyl chains.

Mössbauer spectroscopic studies of (n-C n H2n +1NH3)2SnX6 (n=0-4; X = Cl or Br) and their related complexes

Complexes of the type (n-C _n H_2n +1NH₃)₂SnX₆ (0n 4 and X=Cl or Br) have been investigated with a variety of physico-chemical techniques. The structural phase transitions were found in some of these complexes. The temperature dependence of the Mössbauer spectral absorption area for (C₂H₅NH₃)₂SnCl₆ and (C₂H₅NH₃)₂SnBr₆ changed sharply at phase transition temperatures. The temperature dependences for (n-C₄H₉NH₃)₂SnCl₆ and (n-C₄H₉NH₃)₂SnBr₆ decreased gradually with an increase in temperature. The correlation between the temperature dependence of the spectral absorption area and the motion of n-C _n H_2n+1NH₃ ⁺ ions is discussed.

应用密度泛函B3LYP/6-31 G(d,p)方法对C8H8O-(H2O)n(n=1~5)团簇这种弱相互作用体系进行全自由度能量梯度优化,得到该系列团簇的稳定结构.计算结果表明,在该系列二元团簇中,一方面水分子数目的多少对苯基丙酮分子的结构影响很小,另一方面由于苯基丙酮分子的存在,破坏了团簇中水分子的对称性结构,在团簇内部极力形成O-H-O这样弯曲的有方向性的氢键.对苯基丙酮-水这样结构复杂的团簇,指认光谱的难度非常大,本文只讨论了与C=O有关的振动峰和水分子的对称伸缩振动的最强峰.

The $$\tau\rightarrow\bar{K}^{*0}(892)\pi^{-}\nu_\tau$$ Decay in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio Model

The width of the \(\tau\rightarrow\bar{K}^{*0}(892)\pi^{-}\nu_\tau\) decay is calculated within the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model taking into account four channels of the formation of the \(\tau\rightarrow\bar{K}^{*0}(892)\pi^{-}\) pair—the contact interaction and three channels with intermediate axial-vector, vector, and pseudoscalar mesons. Leading contributions arise from the contact interaction and axial-vector channel with an intermediate ground-state K₁(1270) meson. Our theoretical estimate adequately reproduces the measured \(\tau\rightarrow\bar{K}^{*0}(892)\pi^{-}\nu_\tau\) decay width.
