Dilepton from Passage of Jets Through Spherical Expanding QGP

We calculate the large mass dileptons production from the jet-dilepton conversion in spherical expanding quark-gluon plasma at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies. The jet-dilepton production exceeds the thermal and Drell-Yan dilepton production in the large mass region of 4.5 GeV< M< 5.5 GeV and 7 GeV< M< 9 GeV in central Pb+Pb collisions at √s_NN=2.76 TeV and 5.5 TeV, respectively. We present the solution of (1+3)-dimensional fluid hydrodynamics with spherical symmetry. We find that the transverse flow of the QGP leads to a rapid cooling of the fire ball and suppression of the jet-dilepton conversion. The suppression is also evident at intermediate and large mass at LHC energies. The energy loss of the jet-dilepton conversion is concerned.     

Radiative Corrections to e~+e~-→ Zh at Future Higgs Factory in the Minimal Dilaton Model

The minimal dilaton model(MDM) extends the Standard Model by one singlet scalar called dilaton and one top quark partner called t. In this work we investigate the t-induced radiative correction to the Higgs-strahlung production process e+e-→ Zh at future Higgs factory. We first present the analytical calculations in detail and show how to handle the ultraviolet divergence. Then we calculate the correction numerically by considering the constraints from precision electroweak data. We find that, for sin θL= 0.2 and mt = 1200 Ge V, the correction is 0.26% and 2.1% for (se+e)~(1/2)-= 240 Ge V, 1 Te V respectively, and a larger value can be achieved as sin θLincreases.     

Net-Baryon and Net-Kaon Rapidity Distributions in Ultrarelativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions

In this paper, the gluon distribution is extracted from the KLR-AdS/CFT saturation model and used to investigate net-baryon and net-kaon rapidity distributions in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. With the same parameters of the saturation model fitting to HERA data and an χ² analysis of the overall constant C, the theoretical results are in good agreement with RHIC data in Au+Au collisions at √s=0.2 TeV. Then, we present the predictive results for net-baryon rapidity distributions in central Pb+Pb collisions at LHC energies of √s=2.76, 3.94, and 5.52 TeV, and give the corresponding values of d N/d y for net-baryon at y=0.     

RHIC和LHC能区两粒子关联函数研究

应用多源热模型研究了相对论性重离子对撞机（RHIC）上PHENIX合作组测得的每核子对质心能量√sNN=200 GeV的氘-金（d+Au）碰撞中快度长程方位角关联,和大型强子对撞机（LHC）上CMS合作组测得的质心能量√s=0.9,2.36,7 TeV的质子质子（p+p）碰撞中高多重数短程赝快度关联,在误差范围内模型结果很好地重现了实验数据。用4个参数分析了长程方位角关联,结果表明,参数可以清楚地显示出脊结构的变化趋势,说明脊结构与集体效应、流体力学流效应、粒子对的横动量及信号等有关。用3个参数分析了小系统高多重数短程赝快度关联,结果表明,参数σ和c₃与能量相关,能量越大,两粒子越靠近,关联越强。The multi-source thermal model is used in this paper to analyze the long-range azimuth correlation in deutron-gold (d+Au) collisions at center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair √sNN=200 GeV measured by the PHENIX Collaboration at the relativistic heavy ion collider (RHIC), and the short-range pseudorapidity correlation in high multiplicity event in proton-proton (p+p) collisions at center-of-mass energy √s=0.9, 2.36, 7 TeV measured by the CMS Collaboration at the large hadron collider (LHC). The modeling results are in approximately agreement with the experimental data in error ranges. Four parameters are used in the analysis of long-range azimuth correlation, which show that the parameters describe the change trend of ridge structure. The ridge structure is related to the collective effect, hydrodynamic flow effect, transverse momentum and signal of particle pair, and so forth. Three parameters are used in the analysis of the short-range pseudorapidity correlation in high multiplicity event in small system, which show that the parameters σ and c3 are related to collision energy. Large collision energy results in strong correlation due to close distance between particles.     

Associate Production of w± and H± with a Single Top Quark at LEP Ⅱ

Searching for a single top-quark production at LEP where the backgrohnd is relatively clean is interesting. We study e⁺e^- tb (t
b)+X cross sections at √s =200 GeV and √s =250 GeV energies in the framework of the minimal standard model and the extended standard model with two Higgs doublets. The resultant evaluation of the cross sections is not very encouraging, but can be optimistic and worth further serious studies in experiments and theories, if there exists charged Higgs with a large coupling parameter cotβ or the design luminosity is enhanced by several orders.     

Top Quark Polarization and Spin Correlation in the Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity at the ILC

In the framework of the littlest Higgs model with T-parity(LHT),we study the top quark spin correlation and polarization at the International Linear Collider(ILC).We find that the top quark polarization asymmetry δP t and the left-right asymmetry δA LR can respectively reach-35% and-37.5% for s～(1/2)=500 GeV and s～(1/2)=1000 GeV via e+e-collision,which can reach the observable level at the ILC.By contrast,the spin correlation δC is smaller.The correlation behaviors of these observables at the e+e-collision and the γγ collision will be helpful to distinguish different models and test the LHT model at the ILC.     

The Effects of Simplest Little Higgs Model on the Spin Correlations in the Top Quark Pair Production at the LHC and ILC

In the simplest little Higgs model (SLH), we study the spin correlations in the top quark pair production at the LHC and ILC. We find that the SLH always suppresses the tt spin correlations compared to the SM values. At the LHC, the suppression can be over 10% for m_Z' < 750 GeV. The SLH prediction value is outside the 1σ range of the experimental data from ATLAS, and within 1σ range of the experimental data from CMS. At the ILC, the SLH can sizably suppress the tt spin correlation for m_Z' approaching the center-of-mass energy √s. For example, the maximal suppression can reach -22.5%, -14.5%, and -9.5% for √s=500 GeV, 800 GeV, and 1000 GeV, respectively. Therefore, the tt spin correlation at the ILC can be a sensitive probe for the SLH.     

SUSY-QCD Effects in Top Quark Pair Production in Association with a Gluon at the ILC

Given the null results of searches for new physics at the LHC, we investigate the one-loop effects SUSY QCD in the process e⁺e^-→ttg at the ILC in Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We find that the relative SUSY-QCD corrections to the cross section of e⁺e^-→ttg can maximally reach 6.5%(3.2%) at the ILC with √s=1000 GeV when m=313:4 GeV and m=500(1500) GeV.     

RECENT DATA ON P(p)p SLOPE PARAMETER AND NATURE OF POMERON TRAJECTORY

It is shown that nonlinear trajectory is not imperative to explain the behaviour of the slope parameter for p(p)p elastic scattering.The slope parameter,including the most recent data at collider energies,is explained by assuming a linear pmeron trajectory.The predictions of the mdel at √s=2,5 and 40 TeV are also given.     

The Process e+e-→tc in Technicolor Model with a Massless Scalar Doublet

At LEPⅡ (the energy: √s = 200 GeV), we carry out precise calculations on the process e⁺e^-→tc in the framework of technicolor model with a massless scalar doublet. The results show that the process is unmeasurably small in this TC model.     

Inclusive Photoproduction of Υ(1s) and J/ψ in Ultra-peripheral p-Pb Collisions at √s=5.5 TeV

With a photon spectrum of high energy charged partons, both differential and total cross sections of J/ψ and Υ(1s) inclusive photoproduction in ultra-peripheral p-Pb Collisions (UPCs) at √s=5.5 TeV are given. A direct photon process and a resolved photon process including fragment and non-fragment contributions are considered. The total cross section is compared to the inelastic production results in coherent p-Pb collisions at the same center-of-mass energy. Our results seem non-negligible.     

Main linac lattice design and optimization for Ecm=1 TeV CLIC

The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a future e⁺e^- linear collider. The CLIC study concentrated on a design of center-of-mass energy of 3 TeV and demonstrated the feasibility of the technology. However, the physics also demands lower energy collision. To satisfy this, CLIC can be built in stages. The actual stages will depend on LHC results. Some specific scenarios of staged constructions have been shown in CLIC Concept Design Report (CDR). In this paper, we concentrate on the main linac lattice design for E_cm=1 TeV CLIC aiming to upgrade from E_cm=500 GeV CLIC and then to E_cm=3 TeV one. This main linac accelerates the electron or positron beam from 9 GeV to 500 GeV. A primary lattice design based on the 3 TeV CLIC main linac design and its optimization based on the beam dynamics study will be presented. As we use the same design principles as 3TeV CLIC main linac, this optimization is basically identical to the 3 TeV one. All the simulations results are obtained using the tracking code PLACET.

Direct search for Dirac magnetic monopoles in pp collisions at square root s = 1.96 TeV

We search for pair-produced Dirac magnetic monopoles in 35.7 pb(-1) of proton-antiproton collisions at square root s = 1.96 TeV with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). We find no monopole candidates corresponding to a 95% confidence-level cross-section limit sigma < 0.2 pb for a monopole with mass between 200 and 700 GeV/c2. Assuming a Drell-Yan pair-production mechanism, we set a mass limit m > 360 GeV/c2.     

Interpretation of the DAMPE 1.4 TeV peak according to the decaying dark matter model

Highly accurate measurements of cosmic ray electron flux by the dark matter particle explorer(DAMPE) ranging between 25 Ge V and 4.6 Te V have recently been published. A sharp peak structure was found at ～ 1.4 Te V. This unexpected peak structure can be reproduced by the annihilation/decay of a nearby dark matter(DM) halo. In this study, we adopt the decaying-DM model to interpret the ～ 1.4 Te V peak. We found that the decay products of the local DM subhalo could contribute to the DMAPE peak with mDM= 3 Te V and τ～ 10~(28) s. We also obtain constraints on DM lifetime and the distance of the local DM subhalo by comparison with DAMPE data.     

Top quark production in the reaction e+e− → e?tb at linear collider energies

The complete tree-level cross sections for the reaction e ⁺e^? →e?tb are computed for top masses of 160 to 200 GeV at center-of-mass energies between 0.2 and 2.0 TeV using the packages CompHEP and GRACE. It is demonstrated that tt? -pair production dominates around $sqrt s=0.5$ TeV, whereas soft photon t-channel exchange contributions grow with increasing energy such that above 1.5 TeV it dominates. Detailed cross section considerations close to the tt? threshold reveals some peculiar properties. It is shown that a precise top quark mass determination is not significantly hampered by the existence of non-tt? diagrams. With desirable assumptions on linear collider luminosities the CKM matrix element | V _tb | might be measured best at or close to $sqrt s=2$ TeV.     

Mirror fermion production inep collisions

The phenomenology of mirror fermions is studied in a model with three heavy mirror fermion families. The tree unitarity bounds on the mirror masses are determined. The production cross-sections and decay characteristics of mirror fermions are calculated in high energy electron-proton collisions. For mirror mixing angles of the order of the present upper limits mirror fermion production at HERA ( \(\sqrt s = 314 GeV\) ) is observable up to masses near 200 GeV. For a possible HERA upgrade ( \(\sqrt s = 566 GeV\) ) this limit goes up to about 350 GeV and anep collider in the LEP tunnel ( \(\sqrt s = 1.4 TeV\) ) could cover the range below 500 GeV.     

Gluino and squark search at Tevatron collider energies

Event rates and distributions for high mass gluinos and squarks are computed at Tevatron collider energies, imposing experimentally realisticP _T cuts. Gluino and squark masses can be probed up to 200 GeV at \(\sqrt s = 2 TeV\) , and up to about 150 GeV at \(\sqrt s = 1.6 TeV\) with the supersymmetric signal being much more enhanced relative to the standard model background than at CERN \(\bar p\) energies. If the CERN UA1 missing-p _T events are indeed indicative for the existence of gluinos and/or squarks with masses of about 50–70 GeV, then the Fermilab collider experiments should easily confirm the expected huge supersymmetric signals.     

Evidence for TeV gamma-ray emission from a region of the galactic plane

Gamma-ray emission from a narrow band at the galactic equator has previously been detected up to 30 GeV. We report evidence for a TeV gamma-ray signal from a region of the galactic plane by Milagro, a large-field-of-view water Cherenkov detector for extensive air showers. An excess with a significance of 4.5 standard deviations has been observed from the region of galactic longitude l E (40 degrees, 100 degrees) and latitude /b/ < 5 degrees. Under the assumption of a simple power law spectrum, with no cutoff in the EGRET-Milagro energy range, the measured integral flux is phi gamma(>3.5 TeV) = (6.4 +/- 1.4 +/- 2.1) x 10(-11) cm(-2) s(-1) sr(-1). This flux is consistent with an extrapolation of the EGRET spectrum between 1 and 30 GeV in this galactic region.     

Study of Zgamma events and limits on anomalous ZZgamma and Zgammagamma couplings in pp collisions at square root s = 1.96 TeV

We present a measurement of the Zgamma production cross section and limits on anomalous ZZgamma and Zgammagamma couplings for form-factor scales of lambda = 750 and 1000 GeV. The measurement is based on 138 (152) candidates in the eegamma (mumugamma) final state using 320(290) pb(-1) of pp(-1) collisions at square root of s = 1.96 TeV. The 95% C.L. limits on real and imaginary parts of individual anomalous couplings are /h(10,30)Z/ < 0.23, /h(20,40)Z/ < 0.020, /h(10,30)gamma/ < 0.23, and /h(20,40)gamma/ < 0.019 for lambda = 1000 GeV.
