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））.     

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.     

Deeply bound kaonic states in nuclei

Using a new phenomenological KN interaction which reproduces Λ(1405) as an I = 0 bound state of KN, we have investigated K--3 He(T=0) and K--4 He(T=1/2) within the framework of the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock(BHF) theory. Our calculations show that the above kaonic nuclear systems are both deeply bound. The binding energy BK-is 124.4 MeV(94.1 MeV) and the width Γ is 11.8 MeV(25.8 MeV) for K--3He(T=0)(K--4He(T =1/2)).     

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.     

X Y Z particles at BABAR

This paper intends to shortly summarize the recent results on Spectroscopy, published from the BABAR Collaboration. The BABAR experiment is a B-factory, at SLAC, where asymmetric energy beams of electron-positron are accelerated and collide at the energy in the center of mass of T（4S）. In 9 years of data taking, BABAR had collected 433 fb^-1 equivalent luminosity on-peak-data at the T（4S） energy, 30 fb^-1 data at the T（3S） energy, 15 fb^-1 data at the T（2S） energy, and a scan around T（4S） was done, collecting 25 pb^-1 every 5 MeV. Thanks to the high luminosity achieved, it is possible to perform high precision measurements, and spectroscopy studies. An update on the measurement of the state X（3872） will be given, as final result published by using the whole dataset available. Then, a new preliminary Y（4260） measurement is reported, and the study of the invariant mass J/ψπ^＋π^- in ISR events is shown, where no evidence of the state Y（4050） is highlighted. As conclusion, the results on the angular distribution analysis performed on the state Z（4430） are reported.     

Steady-state analysis subject to a coloured and a white additive of a bistable system multiplicative noise noise with coloured cross-correlated noises

The steady-state properties of a bistable system are investigated when both the multiplicative noise and the coupling between additive and multiplicative noises are coloured with different values of noise correlation times T1 and T2. After introducing a dimensionless parameter R（R = α/D, D is the intensity of the multiplicative noise and a is the intensity of the additive noise）, and performing the numerical computations, we find the following points： （1） For the case of R 〉 1, A （the intensity of correlation between additive and multiplicative noises）, T1 and T2 can induce the stationary probability distribution （SPD） transition from bimodal to unimodal in structure, but for the cases of R _〈 1, the bimodal structure is preserved; （2） a can also induce the SPD transition from bimodal to unimodal in structure; （3） the bimodal structure of the SPD exhibits a symmetrical structure as D increases.     

Kr L X-ray and Au M X-ray emission for 1.5 MeV–3.9 MeV Kr~(13+) ions impacting on an Au target

Kr L X-ray and Au M X-ray emission for Kr13＋ ions with energies of 1.5 MeV and 3.9 MeV impacting on an Au target are investigated at heavy ion research facility in Lanzhou （HIRFL）. The L-shell X-ray yield per ion of Kr is measured as a function of incident energy. In addition, Kr L X-ray production cross section is extracted from the yield and compared with the result obtained from the classical binary-encounter approximation （BEA） model. Furthermore, the intensity ratio of the Au M/33 to Ma1 X-ray is investigated as a function of incident energy.     

A geometric factor calculation method based on the isotropic flux assumption

One of the instruments onboard the China Seismic Electromagnetic Satellite （CSES） is the Low Energy Particle Detector （LEPD）. The primary objective of LEPD is to provide measurements of the fluxes, energy spectra and pitch angles of 100 keV to 10 MeV electrons and protons from 2 to 50 MeV in the Earth＇s magnetosphere. The geometric factor is one of the principle parameters of a detector, which converts the physical quantity-count rate to the particle quantity-flux. In this paper, we calculated the geometric factor of LEPD via computer modeling of an isotropic radiation environment. It was first demonstrated that the radiation intensity related should obey a cosine-law, then a general sampling method of generating this distribution via GPS of GEANT4 was explained. Furthermore, combined with flux normalization, a comparison of the geometric factor calculation of a set of 2-layer detectors with different shapes （cylinder, truncated cone and rectangle） was performed. Results show a generally good agreement between simulation and analytical calculations for the cylinder and truncated cone detectors, and the result of the rectangular one, for which there is no accurate analytical formula, is consistent with the previous simulated results by others. As a practical instance of the 2-layer rectangle detector, the geometric factor of LEPD is 10.336±0.036 m cm2·sr for 10 MeV proton and 8.211±0.032 m cm2·sr for 8 MeV electron.     

Anomalous magnetic properties of an iron film system deposited on fracture surfaces of α-Al2O3 ceramics

An iron film percolation system is fabricated by vapour-phase deposition on fracture surfaces of α-Al2O3 ceramics. The zero-field-cooled （ZFC） and field-cooled （FC） magnetization measurement reveals that the magnetic phase of the film samples evolve from a high-temperature ferromagnetic state to a low-temperature spin-glass-like state, which is also demonstrated by the temperature-dependent ac susceptibility of the iron films. The temperature dependence of the exchange bias field He of the iron film exhibits a minimum peak around the temperature T=5 K, which is independent of the magnitude of the cooling field Hcf. However, for T 〉 10K, （1） He is always negative when Hcf=2kOe and （2） for Hcf= 20 kOe （1Oe≈80 A/m）, He changes from negative to positive values as T increases. Our experimental results show that the anomalous hysteresis properties mainly result from the oxide surfaces of the films with spin-glass-like phase.     

Bottomonium Spectrum with Screened Potential

As a sister work of[Phys. Rev. D 79 （2009） 094004], we incorporate the color-screening effect due to light quark pair creation into the heavy quark-antiquark potential, and investigate the effects of screened potential on the spectrum of bottomonimn. We calculate the masses, electromagnetic decays, and E1 transitions of bottomonium states. We find that the fine splittings between χbJ （J = 0, 1, 2） states are in good agreement with experimental data, and the E1 transition rates of γ（2S） → γχbJ（1P） and γ（3S） →γχbJ（2P） （J = 0, 1, 2） all agree with data within experimental errors. In particular, the mass of γ（6S） is lowered down to match that of the γ（11020）, which is smaller than the predictions of the linear potential models by more than 100 MeV. Comparison between charmonium and bottomonium in some related problems is also discussed.     

Raman spectrum study of graphite irradiated by swift heavy ions

Highly oriented pyrolytic graphites are irradiated with 40.5-Me V and 67.7-Me V ^112Sn-ions in a wide range of fluences： 1×10^11 ions/cm^2–1×10^14ions/cm^2. Raman spectra in the region between 1200 cm^-1 and 3500cm^-1 show that the disorder induced by Sn-ions increases with ion fluence increasing. However, for the same fluence, the amount of disorder is greater for 40.5-Me V Sn-ions than that observed for 67.7-Me V Sn-ions, even though the latter has a slightly higher value for electronic energy loss. This is explained by the ion velocity effect. Importantly, ～ 3-cm^-1frequency shift toward lower wavenumber for the D band and ～ 6-cm^-1 shift toward lower wavenumber for the 2D band are observed at a fluence of 1×10^14 ions/cm^2, which is consistent with the scenario of radiation-induced strain. The strain formation is interpreted in the context of inelastic thermal spike model, and the change of the 2D band shape at high ion fluence is explained by the accumulation of stacking faults of the graphene layers activated by radiation-induced strain around ion tracks. Moreover,the hexagonal structure around the ion tracks is observed by scanning tunneling microscopy, which confirms that the strains near the ion tracks locally cause electronic decoupling of neighboring graphene layers.     

Effects of N doping on photoelectric properties of along different directions of ZnO bulk and nanotube

The electronic structures and optical properties of N-doped Zn O bulks and nanotubes are investigated using the firstprinciples density functional method. The calculated results show that the main optical parameters of Zn O bulks are isotropic（especially in the high frequency region）, while Zn O nanotubes exhibit anisotropic optical properties. N doping results show that Zn O bulks and nanotubes present more obvious anisotropies in the low-frequency region. Thereinto, the optical parameters of N-doped Zn O bulks along the [100] direction are greater than those along the [001] direction, while for N-doped nanotubes, the variable quantities of optical parameters along the [100] direction are less than those along the[001] direction. In addition, refractive indexes, electrical conductivities, dielectric constants, and absorption coefficients of Zn O bulks and nanotubes each contain an obvious spectral band in the deep ultraviolet（UV）（100 nm～ 300 nm）. For each of N-doped Zn O bulks and nanotubes, a spectral peak appears in the UV and visible light region, showing that N doping can broaden the application scope of the optical properties of Zn O.     

Synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes using CoMnMgO catalysts through catalytic chemical vapor deposition

The Co Mg O and Co Mn Mg O catalysts are prepared by a co-precipitation method and used as the catalysts for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes（CNTs） through the catalytic chemical vapor deposition（CCVD）. The effects of Mn addition on the carbon yield and structure are investigated. The catalysts are characterized by temperature programmed reduction（TPR） and X-ray diffraction（XRD） techniques, and the synthesized carbon materials are characterized by transmission electron microscopy（TEM） and thermo gravimetric analysis（TG）. TEM measurement indicates that the catalyst Co Mg O enclosed completely in the produced graphite layer results in the deactivation of the catalyst. TG results suggest that the Co Mn Mg O catalyst has a higher selectivity for CNTs than Co Mg O. Meanwhile, different diameters of CNTs are synthesized by Co Mn Mg O catalysts with various amounts of Co content, and the results show that the addition of Mn avoids forming the enclosed catalyst, prevents the formation of amorphous carbon, subsequently promotes the growth of CNTs, and the catalyst with decreased Co content is favorable for the synthesis of CNTs with a narrow diameter distribution.The Co Mn Mg O catalyst with 40% Co content has superior catalytic activity for the growth of carbon nanotubes.     

Particle path tracking method in two- and three-dimensional continuously rotating detonation engines

The particle path tracking method is proposed and used in two-dimensional（2D） and three-dimensional（3D） numerical simulations of continuously rotating detonation engines（CRDEs）. This method is used to analyze the combustion and expansion processes of the fresh particles, and the thermodynamic cycle process of CRDE. In a 3D CRDE flow field, as the radius of the annulus increases, the no-injection area proportion increases, the non-detonation proportion decreases, and the detonation height decreases. The flow field parameters on the 3D mid annulus are different from in the 2D flow field under the same chamber size. The non-detonation proportion in the 3D flow field is less than in the 2D flow field. In the 2D and 3D CRDE, the paths of the flow particles have only a small fluctuation in the circumferential direction. The numerical thermodynamic cycle processes are qualitatively consistent with the three ideal cycle models, and they are right in between the ideal F–J cycle and ideal ZND cycle. The net mechanical work and thermal efficiency are slightly smaller in the 2D simulation than in the 3D simulation. In the 3D CRDE, as the radius of the annulus increases, the net mechanical work is almost constant, and the thermal efficiency increases. The numerical thermal efficiencies are larger than F–J cycle, and much smaller than ZND cycle.     

Block-free optical quantum Banyan network based on quantum state fusion and fission

Optical switch fabric plays an important role in building multiple-user optical quantum communication networks.Owing to its self-routing property and low complexity, a banyan network is widely used for building switch fabric. While,there is no efficient way to remove internal blocking in a banyan network in a classical way, quantum state fusion, by which the two-dimensional internal quantum states of two photons could be combined into a four-dimensional internal state of a single photon, makes it possible to solve this problem. In this paper, we convert the output mode of quantum state fusion from spatial-polarization mode into time-polarization mode. By combining modified quantum state fusion and quantum state fission with quantum Fredkin gate, we propose a practical scheme to build an optical quantum switch unit which is block free. The scheme can be extended to building more complex units, four of which are shown in this paper.     

Calculation and analysis of the number of return photons from sodium laser beacon excited by the long pulse laser with circular polarization

The number of return photons from sodium laser beacon（SLB） greatly suffers down-pumping, recoil, and geomagnetic field when the long pulse laser with circular polarization interacts with sodium atoms in the mesosphere. Considering recoil and down-pumping effects on the number of return photons from SLB, the spontaneous radiation rates are obtained by numerical computations and fittings. Furthermore, combining with the geomagnetic field effects, a new expression is achieved for calculating the number of return photons. By using this expression and considering the stochastic distribution of laser intensity in the mesosphere under different turbulence models for atmosphere, the number of return photons excited by the narrow-band single mode laser and that by the narrow-band three-mode laser are respectively calculated. The results show that the narrow-band three-mode laser with a specific spectrum structure has a higher spontaneous radiation rate and more return photons than a narrow-band single mode laser. Of note, the effect of the atmospheric turbulence on the number of return photons is remarkable. Calculation results indicate that the number of return photons under the HV5/7 model for atmospheric turbulence is much higher than that under the Greenwood and Mod HV models.     

Novel Localized Excitations of Nonlinear Coupled Scalar Fields

Some extended solution mapping relations of the nonlinear coupled scalar field and the well-known φ^4 model are presented. Simultaneously, inspired by the new solutions of the famous φ^4 model recently proposed by Jia, Huang and Lou, five kinds of new localized excitations of the nonlinear coupled scaiar field （NCSF） system are obtained.     

Fractional cyclic integrals and Routh equations of fractional Lagrange system with combined Caputo derivatives

The fractional Hamilton principle and the fractional Lagrange equations of the system are obtained under a combined Caputo derivative. Furthermore, the fractional cyclic integrals based on the Lagrange equations are studied and the associated Routh equations of the system are presented. Finally, two examples are given to show the applications of the results.     

Effect of electromagnetic disturbance on the practical QKD system in the smart grid

To improve the security of the smart grid, quantum key distribution（QKD） is an excellent choice. The rapid fluctuations on the power aerial optical cable and electromagnetic disturbance in substations are two main challenges for implementation of QKD. Due to insensitivity to birefringence of the channel, the stable phase-coding Faraday–Michelson QKD system is very practical in the smart grid. However, the electromagnetic disturbance in substations on this practical QKD system should be considered. The disturbance might change the rotation angle of the Faraday mirror, and would introduce an additional quantum bit error rate（QBER）. We derive the new fringe visibility of the system and the additional QBER from the electromagnetic disturbance. In the worst case, the average additional QBER only increases about 0.17% due to the disturbance, which is relatively small to normal QBER values. We also find the way to degrade the electromagnetic disturbance on the QKD system.     

Relativistic effect of pseudospin symmetry and tensor coupling on the Mie-type potential via Laplace transformation method

A relativistic Mie-type potential for spin-1/2 particles is studied. The Dirac Hamiltonian contains a scalar S（r） and a vector V（r） Mie-type potential in the radial coordinates, as well as a tensor potential U（r） in the form of Coulomb potential. In the pseudospin（p-spin） symmetry setting Σ = Cps and Δ = V（r）, an analytical solution for exact bound states of the corresponding Dirac equation is found. The eigenenergies and normalized wave functions are presented and particular cases are discussed with any arbitrary spin–orbit coupling number κ. Special attention is devoted to the caseΣ = 0 for which p-spin symmetry is exact. The Laplace transform approach（LTA） is used in our calculations. Some numerical results are obtained and compared with those of other methods.
