Ψ(2S) and ϒ(3S) Suppression in p-Pb 8 TeV Collisions and Mixed Heavy Quark Hybrid Mesons

This brief report is an extension of a previus publication on Ψ(2S) to J/Ψ(1S) suppression in p-Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV to estimate Ψ(2S) to J/Ψ(1S) and ?(3S) to ?(1S) suppression via p-Pb collisions at 8 TeV as proposed by the LHCb.     

Effective Interaction Force between an Electric Charge and a Magnetic Dipole and Locality (or Nonlocality) in Quantum Effects of the Aharonov–Bohm Type

Classical electrodynamics foresees that the effective interaction force between a moving charge and a magnetic dipole is modified by the time-varying total momentum of the interaction fields. We derive the equations of motion of the particles from the total stress-energy tensor, assuming the validity of Maxwell's equations and the total momentum conservation law. Applications to the effects of Aharonov–Bohm type show that the observed phase shift may be due to the relative lag between interfering particles caused by the effective local force.

Analysis on Mural Structures and Components of the Tombs in Liao Dynasty (A.D. 907–A.D. 1125)

The compositions of plaster, pigments, and binding medium were identified using micro-Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray, and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer. The results show that the plaster was calcium carbonate; the red color was ascribed to hematite; the blue pigment was ultramarine; the black pigment was carbon; and the yellow pigment was litharge. Animal glue as the binding medium was mixed in the pigments. Dissolved salt (mirabilite) was confirmed on the tomb passage. The mural detachment was detected with portable infrared thermal imager, and this damage resulted from the soil layer. This will serve as the basis for repairing the murals and reliable methods for identifying ancient murals.

Corrigendum to: Discussion on Active aeroelastic control of 2-D wing-flap systems operating in an incompressible flowfield and impacted by a blast pulse by Librescu et al., Journal of Sound and Vibration 283 (3–5) (2005) 685–706 [Journal of Sound Vibration 332 (13) (2013) 3351–3358]

This corrigendum supplies a corrected statement of an equation in our discussion paper recently appearing in Journal of Sound and Vibration 332 (13) (2013) 3351–3358. This equation concerns the control input coefficient matrix of the state-space representation of the aeroelastic system. It illustrates the influence of the error in the calculation of aeroelastic impulse, step, and ramp responses, as well as demonstrating the accuracy and legitimacy of the present model in comparison to well-established literature data.     

Comment on “Exponential ionic drift: fast switching and low volatility of thin-film memristors” by D.B. Strukov and R.S. Williams in Appl. Phys. A (2009) 94: 515–519

In a recent publication (see title), it was proposed that—instead of the average macroscopic electric field—one should use the local or LORENTZ field inside dielectrics to calculate high-field ionic drift mobilities. This incorrect proposition seems now to start circulating even though it has been clearly shown in the past that the standard equations for ionic conduction in solids are by no way subject to any corrections for local or LORENTZ field effects. It is thus worth to recall some basic assumptions with regard to ion migration in crystalline solids. We believe that the clarification of this issue is of great importance for the large and still growing community of researchers dealing with resistive switching and memristive effects.
