Combined fit to BABAR and Belle Data on e~+e~- →φπ~+π~- and φf_0(980)

A combined fit is performed to the BABAR and Belle measurements of the e+e- →φπ+π- and φf0(980) cross sections for center-of-mass energy between threshold and 3.0 GeV. The resonance parameters of the φ(1680) and Y(2175) are determined. The mass is (1681+-1102) MeV/c2 and the width is (221-+3244) MeV/c2 for the φ(1680), and the mass is (2117+-5499) MeV/c2 and the width is (164+-6890) MeV/c2 for the Y(2175). This information will shed light on the understanding of the nature of the excited φ and Y states observed in e+e- annihilation.     

Observation of a p^-p mass threshold enhancement in ψ′→ π 〉＋π^-J/ψ（J/ψ 〉 γp^-p） decay

The decay channel ψ′→ π 〉＋π^-J/ψ（J/ψ 〉 γp^-p） is studied using a sample of 1.06 × 10^8 ψ′ events collected by the BESIII experiment at BEPCII. A strong enhancement at threshold is observed in the p^-p invariant mass spectrum. The enhancement can be fitted with an S-wave Breit-Wigner resonance function with a resulting peak mass of M = 1861-13^＋6 （stat）-26^＋7 （syst） MeV/c^2 and a narrow width that is Г 〈 38 MeV/c^2 at the 90% confidence level. These results are consistent with published BESII results. These mass and width values do not match with well established mesons.     

Determination of the resonant parameters of excited vector strangenia with e+e-→ηφ data

We determine the resonant parameters of the vector states φ(1680) and φ(2170) by performing a combined fit to the e⁺e^-→ηφ cross sections from the threshold to 2.85 GeV measured by the BaBar,Belle,BESⅢ,and CMD-3 experiments.The mass(1678_-3⁺⁵±7) MeV/c² and width(156±5±9) MeV are obtained for φ(1680),and the mass(2169±5±6)MeV/c² and width(96_-14⁺¹⁷±9)MeV are obtained for φ(2170).The statistical significance ofφ(2...     

Evidence for resonant structures in e＋e-→π＋π-hc

Abstract： The cross sections of e＋e-→π＋π-hc at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 to 4.42 GeV were measured by the BESIII and the CLEO-c experiments. Resonant structures are evident in the e＋e-→π＋π-hc line shape. The fit to the line shape results in a narrow structure at a mass of （4216±18） MeV/c2 and a width of （39±2） MeV, and a possible wide structure of mass （4293±9） MeV/c2 and width （222=k67） MeV. Here, the errors are combined statistical and systematic errors. This may indicate that the Y（4260） state observed in e＋e-→π＋π-J/ψ has a fine structure in it.     

D^0D^0 mixing and other recent charm results from BABAR

Studies in which BABAR data have shown evidence for mixing in the neutral charm meson system are presented. A new measurement of the lifetime difference parameter ycp = （1.16±0.22±0.18）% is described. Results are also presented from a systematic study of DK and D＊K invariant mass distributions from a 470 fb^-1 sample of asymmetric e^＋e^- interactions recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-Ⅱ storage rings. A new charmed-strange meson has been observed with mass [3044 ± 8stat （-5^＋30 ）syst] MeV/c^2 and width [239± 35stat （-42^＋46）syst]MeV/c^2.     

Masses and Widths of Light Scalar Mesons in Chiral Perturbation Theory

Based on the diquark model, we assume that the light scalar mesons are q^2q^-2 states rather than qq^-. The chiral effective Lagrangian for the light scalar meson is constructed, and the mass relations are obtained： the isotriplet （a0） and the isosinglet （f0） are the heaviest and are degenerate, the isodoublets （κ） are heavier and the other isosinglet （σ） is the lightest; and 2Mκ^2 = Mα0^2＋ Mσ^2. Using experimental value for a0 and σ mass, we obtain Mκ=794 MeV, which is consistent with the experimental value. Then taking Г（a0^0 →ηπ^0） = 90 MeV and Г（f0→π^0π^0） = 20 MeV, we get the width of σ is： Г（σ0→π^＋π^-）= 150 MeV.     

Study of K（892） mass and width splitting caused by model difference

According to the new K^＊（892）^0 and K^＊（892）^- masses reported by the BELLE experiment and the K^＊（892）^0 mass reported by the FOCUS experiment, mass splitting between neutral and charged K^＊（892） becomes very small. This is significantly different from the current world average values given by the Particle Data Group 2008. We find that there are differences between models used to fit the K^＊（892） decay invariant mass spectra in different measurements and study the model dependence in the measurement of K^＊（892） parameters. We refit the K^＊（892）^0 mass spectra of the BELLE and FOCUS experiments with the formula used by BELLE in fitting K^＊（892）^- to get new mass and width. After refitting, the K^＊（892）^0 mass of the BELLE experiment becomes 1.4 MeV/c^2 larger than the initial value and that of the FOCUS experiment is 1 MeV/c^2 smaller than the initial value. We also fit the spectra of some other experiments to extract the K^＊ （892） parameters using the BELLE K^＊ （892）^- parametrization.     

Secondary Beam Fragments Produced by 200 and 400 MeV/u ^12C^6＋ Ions in Water

Based on the GEANT4 toolkit, we study the transportation of nucleons and nuclei in tissue-like media. The fragmentation of projectile nuclei and secondary interactions of produced nuclear fragments are considered. Livermore data is used to calculate electromagnetic interaction of primary and secondary charged particles. We validate the models using experimental data of 200 MeV/u and 400 MeV/u carbon ions, interacting with tissue equivalent materials of water. The model can well describe the depth-dose distributions in water and the doses measured for secondary fragments of certain charge and certain mass number. The secondary beam fragments produced by 200 MeV/u and 400 MeV/u ^12C^6＋ ions in water are investigated using the model. When the primary nuclei are in water, several neutron production mechanisms are involved. The light charged particles （p, d, t, ^3He and ^4He） and fast neutrons contribute to the dose tail behind the Bragg peak. The ^11C fragments which may be the most suitable nuclei for monitoring the energy deposition in carbon-ion therapy are also discussed.     

Nuclear -K Bound States in 4He and 3He

We construct a phenomenologica/KN interaction which reproduces the two resonances： the energy of the first resonance is 1420MeV and the other is 1392MeV. The A（1405） is found by a superposition of the two reso- nances with appropriate weights. Within the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock theory, we have studied K- - 3He（T = 0） and K- - 4He（T = 1/2）. The binding energy BK- is 93MeV（72MeV） and the width F is 13 MeV（25 MeV） for K- - 3He（T =0） （ K- - 4He（T = 1/2））.     

Vector meson J/ψ, Ф electro-production in QCD

We study the vector meson electro-production off the proton in a QCD inspired model. A calculation of the differential cross section is performed for the J/ψ, Ф meson off the proton. The theoretical results are consistent with the experimental data, and remind us to consider the contribution from the tensor glueball and Odderon to the differential cross section. Since gluons interact among themselves via self-interaction, the gluons can form a glueball with quantum numbers I^G, J^PC = 0^＋, 2^＋＋ with a decay width Гt = 100 MeV and mass of mG = 2.23 GeV. The three gluons can form a three gluon color bound state with charge conjugation quantum number C = -1. This study is quite important to verify the validity of QCD and to search for new particles （tensor glueball and Odderon） as well as quest for new physics.     

Analysis of the coupling constants ga0ηπ0 and ga0η＇ π0 with light-cone QCD sum rules

In this article, we take the point of view that the light scalar meson a0（980） is a conventional qqstate, and calculate the coupling constants ga0ηπ0 and ga0ηπ0 with the light-cone QCD sum rules. The central value of the coupling constant ga0ηπ0 is consistent with that extracted from the radiative decay φ（1020） → a0（980）γ→ηπ0γ. The central value and lower bound of the decay width Γa0→ηπ0 =127＋8448 MeV are compatible with the experimental data of the total decay width Γa0（980） = （50-100） MeV from the Particle Data Group with a very model dependent estimation （the decay width can be much larger）, while the upper bound is too large. We give a possible explanation for the discrepancy between the theoretical calculation and experimental data.     

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.     

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＋.     

Probing the Dissipation Mechanism in Ternary Reactions of ^197Au＋^197Au by Mean Free Path of Nucleons

the collision of very heavy nuclei ^197Au＋^197Au at 15AMeV has been studied within the improved quantum molecular dynamics model. A class of ternary events satisfying nearly complete balance of mass numbers is selected. The experimental mass distributions for the system ^197Au＋^197Au ternary fission fragments, the heaviest（A1）, the intermediate （A2） and the lightest （A3）, are reproduced well. The mean free path of nucleons in the reaction system is studied and the shorter mean free path is responsible for the ternary fission with three mass comparable fragments, in which the two-body dissipation mechanism plays a dominant role.     

Energy Spectrum of La3Lu2Ga3O12：Cr^3＋ and Its Pressure-Induced R-Line-Shift Reversal

By means of both the theory for pressure-induced Shifts （PS） of energy spectra and the theory for shifts of energy spectra due to electron-phonon interaction （EPI）, the normal-pressure energy spectra of α and β centers of Cr^3＋ ions for LLGG：Cr^3＋ and the PS＇s of R1 lines and U band of these centers have been calculated at 10 K, respectively. The total calculated results are in very good agreement with the experimental data. For LLGG：Cr^3＋, the pressureinduced low-high crystal-field transition and the reversal of R1-line PS take place. The pressure-dependent variation of Rmix^ei （2E - 4T2） [mixing-degree of （t2^2 （^3T1）e^4T2） and （t2^3 E） base-wavefunctions in the wavefunction of R1 state without EPI] plays a key role for the reversal of R1-line PS. The behavior of the pure electronic PS of R1 line is quite different from that of the PS of R1 line due to EPI. It is the combined effect of them that gives rise to the total PS of R1 line. The comparison between R1-line PS＇s of GSGG：Cr^3＋ and LLGG：Cr^3＋ has been made. It is found that a peak of R1-line PS appears at Rmix^ei （^2E - ^4T2） ≈ 0.08.     

Multi-Electron Processes in 4.15-11.08 keV/u^13C^6＋ on Argon Collisions

The relative partial cross sections for ^13C^6＋ -Ar collisions at 4.15-11.08 ke V/u incident energy are measured. The cross-section ratios σ^2E/σ^SC, σ^3E/σ^SC, σ^4E/σ^SC and σ^SE/σ^SC are approximately the constants of 0.514-0.05, 0.204-0.03, 0.064-0.03 and 0.024-0.01 in this region. The significance of the multi-electron process in highly charged ions （HCIs） with argon collisions is demonstrated （σ^ME/σ^SC as high as 0.794-0.06）. In multi-electron processes, it is shown that transfer ionization is dominant while pure electron capture is weak and negligible. For all reaction channels, the cross-sections are independent of the incident energy in the present energy region, which is in agreement with the static characteristic of classic models, i.e. the molecular Coulomb over-the-barrier model （MCBM）, the extended classical over-the-barrier model （ECBM） and the semiempirical scaling laws （SL）. The result is compared with these classical models and with our previous work of ^13C^6＋ -Ne collisions [Chin. Phys. Lett. 23 （2006） 95].     

Description of ^178Hf^m2 in the Constrained Relativistic Mean Field Theory

Properties of the ground state of ^178Hf and the isomeric state ^178Hf^m2 are studied within the adiabatic and diabatie constrained relativistic mean field （RMF） approaches. The RMF calculations reproduce well the binding energy and the deformation for the ground state of ^178Hf. Using the ground state single-particle eigenvalues obtained in the present eaiculation, the lowest excitation configuration with K^π = 16^＋ is found to be v（7/2^-[514]）^-1（9/2^＋ [624]）^1 π（7/2^＋ [404]）^-1 （9/2^-[514]）^1. Its excitation energy caiculated by the RMF theory with time-odd fields taken into account is equal to 2.801 MeV, i.e., close to the ^178Hf^m2 experimentai excitation energy 2.446 MeV. The self-consistent procedure accounting for the time-odd component of the meson fields is the most important aspect of the present calculation.     

Simulation and analysis of 13N+p elastic resonance scattering

The ^13 N＋p elastic resonance scattering has been studied at the secondary radioactive beam facility of CIAE in inverse kinematics via a thick-target method. The excitation function for the ^13N（p,p） scattering was obtained in the energy interval of Ecru ≈0.5-3.2 MeV with a ^13 N secondary beam of （47.8±1.5） MeV. Careful analysis of the secondary beam components and extensive Monte-Carlo simulations enable the resolution of the experimental proton spectra. The resonance parameters for five low-lying levels in ^14 O were deduced by Rmatrix fitting calculations with MULTI7 and SAMMY-M6-BETA. The present results show general agreement with those from a recent similar work, and thus confirm the observation of a new 0^- level at 5.7 MeV in 140 with an improved width of 400（45） keV.     

Strange K^- nuclear systems （S=-1）

Λ（1405） is considered as a superposition of two resonances instead of a simple bound state of the kaon and proton. Within the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock（BHF） theory, we have investigated the K^- nuclear systems （S = -1）, especially K^-pp and K^-pnn（T = 1）. The binding energy BK- is 23 MeV （3 MeV） and the width Γ is 62 MeV （56 MeV） for K^-pp（K^-pnn（T =1））.     

Hunting η-bound nuclei

The η meson can be bound to atomic nuclei.Experimental search is discussed in the form of final state interaction for the reactions dp → 3 Heη and dd → 4 Heη.For the latter case tensor polarized deuterons were used in order to extract the s-wave strength.For both reactions complex scattering lengths are deduced： a 3 Heη = ± 10.7±0.8 ＋0.1 -0.5 ＋i· 1.5±2.6 ＋1.0-0.9 fm and a 4 Heη = [±（3.1±0.5）＋i·（0±0.5）] fm.In a two-nucleon transfer reaction under quasi-free conditions,p^ 27 Al → ^3 HeX,was investigated.The system X can be the bound 25 Mg  η at rest.When a possible decay of an intermediate N  （1535） is required,a highly significant bump shows up in the missing mass spectrum.The data give for a bound state a binding energy of 13.3±1.6 MeV and a width of σ=4.4±1.3 MeV.
