CP Violation inΛb →Λ<IMG style=

We present the first study of CP asymmetry in Λ_b →Λ decay when a new weak phase comes through the extension of three-generation standard model to the four-generation standard model. Taking =0.01,0.02,0.03 with phase {60°-120°}, which is consistent with therate and the Bs mixing parameter ΔmBs, we find out that CP asymmetry is quite sensitive to the existence of fourth generation. It can serve as a good tool to search for new physics effects, in particular, to search for the fourth generation quarks (t', b') via their indirect manifestations in loop diagrams.     

B→Kη~(,) decays in the SM with fourth generation fermions

By employing the perturbative QCD(pQCD) factorization approach, we calculate the new physics contributions to the four B→Kη()decays in the Standard Model(SM) with a fourth generation of fermions(SM4),induced by the loop diagrams involving t quark. Within the considered parameter space of the SM4 we find that:(a) the next-to-leading order(NLO) pQCD predictions for the branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries in both the SM and SM4 generally agree with the data within one standard deviation;(b) for Br(B→Kη), the inclusion of the fourth generation contributions can improve the agreement between the theoretical predictions and the data effectively;(c) however, for Br(B → Kη) the decrease due to t loops is disfavored by the data; and,(d) the new physics corrections to the CP-violating asymmetries of the considered decays are only about 10%.     

Lepton Polarization Asymmetry in B → e^＋e^- Decay beyond the Standard Model

The lepton polarization asymmetry in the B → e^＋e^- decay, when one of the leptons is polarized, is investigated by using the most general form of the effective Hamiltonian. We find allowed regions for the new scalar Wilson coefficients, assuming that the experimental branching ratio is measured within 10% percent uncertainty. Then using these restrictions to the new coefficients the sensitivity of the lepton polarization asymmetry to them is studied. Moreover, it is observed that there are regions of terms describing the scalar interactions, where lepton polarization asymmetry differs from zero, which can serve as a good test for searching new physics beyond the standard model.     

Supersymmetric contributions to B_s → K~-π~＋ decay

Recently,the CDF Collaboration has measured the branching fraction and time-integrated direct CP asymmetry of Bs → K-π＋ decay.The branching ratio is lower than the previous predictions based on QCD factorization.The experimental results favor a large CP asymmetry in Bs → K-π＋ decay while the standard model prediction is very small.We compute the supersymmetry contributions to Bs → K-π＋ decay using the mass insertion method,and find that the LR and RL mass insertions could suppress this branching ratio and increase this direct CP asymmetry well in line with the experimental data.     

Probing new physics in B → J/ψπ~0 decay

We calculate the branching ratio of B → J/ψπ0 with a mixed formalism that combines the QCDimproved factorization and the perturbative QCD approaches.The result is consistent with experimental data.The quite small penguin contribution in B → J/ψπ0 decay can be calculated with this method.We suggest two methods to extract the weak phase β.One is through the dependence of the mixing induced CP asymmetry SJ/ψπ0 on the weak phase β,the other is from the relation of the total asymmetry ACP with the weak phase β.Our results show that the deviation ΔSJ/ψπ0 of the mixing induced CP asymmetry from sin（-2β） is of O（10-3） and has much less uncertainty.The above O（10-3） deviation can provide a good reference for identifying new physics.     

Searching for new physics in D^0→μ^＋ μ^-,e^＋e^-,μ^±e at BES and/or the super charm-tau factory

In contrast with B0-ˉB0, Bs-ˉBs mixing where the standard model（SM） contributions overwhelm that of the new physics beyond standard model（BSM）, a measured relatively large D0-ˉD0mixing where the SM contribution is negligible, definitely implies the existence of the new physics BSM. It is natural to consider that the rare decays of D meson might be more sensitive to new physics, and the decay mode D0→μ＋μ-could be an ideal area to search for new physics because it is a flavor changing process. In this work we look for a trace of the new physics BSM in the leptonic decays of D0. Concretely we discuss the contributions of unparticle or an extra gauge boson Z while imposing the constraints set by fitting the D0-ˉD0mixing data. We find that the long-distance SM effects for D0→lˉl still exceed those contributions of the BSM under consideration, but for a double-flavor changing process such as D0→μ±e, the new physics contribution would be significant.     

Search for W' signal in single top quark production at the LHC

Heavy charged gauge bosons are proposed in some theories beyond the standard model. We explore the discovery potential for W →tb with top quark semi-leptonic decay at the LHC. We concentrate on the new physics signal search with the deviation from the standard model prediction if the resonance peak of W cannot be observed directly. Signal events with two jets plus one charged lepton and missing energy are simulated, together with the dominant standard model backgrounds. In this paper, it is found that suitable cuts on the kinematic observables can effectively suppress the standard model backgrounds, so that it is possible to search for a W signal at the LHC if its mass is less than 6.6 Te V.

INTERACTION OF A ∧-TYPE THREE-LEVEL ATOM WITH A TWO-MODE FIELD AND A TWO-MODE RAMAN-COUPLED MODEL

The Hamiltonian is derived for the interaction of a ∧-type three-level atom with a two-mode quantum cavity field from the general interaction Hamiltonian between a multi-level atom and a multi-mode radiation field, and it is reduced to an effective two-mode Raman-coupled model under a large detuning condition. We propose a modified effective Hamiltonian for the two-mode Raman-coupled model, find the time-dependent state vectors, and present the validity conditions for the involved interaction Hamiltonians. It is shown that in the study of the two-mode Raman-coupled model it is not enough to retain only the usually used effective Hamiltonian, one must also take into account the ac Stark shift of the atomic levels (at least one of the levels). Finally, we study the atomic dynamics in the interaction of a ∧-type three-level atom with a two-mode quantum cavity field and in the two-mode Raman-coupled model. We find that the number of collapse-revivals, the collapse time and the revival time show new characteristics.     

New physical effects on the decay Bs →γγ in the technicolor model

In this paper we calculate the contributions to the branching ratio of Bs →γγ from charged pseudo-Goldstone bosons appearing in the one generation Technicolor model. We find that the theoretical value of the branching ratio, BR（Bs →γγ）, including the contributions of PGBs, P^± and P8^±, is very different from the standard model （SM） prediction. The new physical effects can provide a one to two order of magnitude enhancement of the SM results. It is shown that the decay Bs →γγ can test new physical signals from the technicolor model.

SU（3） Simple Group Model and New Z＇ Properties in Future Linear Colliders

In the SU（3） simple group model, the new neutral gauge boson Z＇ couples to pairs of SM fermions with couplings fixed in terms of the SM gauge couplings and depending only on the choice of the fermion embedding. In this paper, we calculate the contributions of this new particle to the processes e^＋e^-→l^＋l^-, bb^-, and cc^- and study the possibility of detecting this new particle via these processes in the future high-energy linear e^＋e^- collider（LC） experiments with √s= 500 GeV and ￡int= 340 fb^-1. We find that the new gauge boson Z＇ is most sensitive to the process e^＋e^-→b^＋b^-. As long as Mz,≤2 TeV , the absolute values of the relative correction parameter are larger than 5%. We calculate the forward-backward asymmetries and left-right asymmetries for the process e^＋e^-→c^＋c^-, with both the universal and anomaly-free fermion embeddings. Bounds on Z＇ masses are also estimated within 95% confidence level.     

Tuning of RF amplitude and phase for the drift tube linac in J-PARC

The J-PARC linac has three DTL tanks to accelerate the negative hydrogen ions from 3 MeV to 50 MeV. The RF phase and amplitude are adjusted for each cavity with a phase scan method within the accuracy of 1° in phase and 1% in amplitude. The experimental results show a remarkable agreement with the numerical model within a suffcient margin in the tuning of the last two DTL tanks. However,a notable discrepancy between the experiment and the numerical model is seen in the tuning of the first DTL tank. After studying with a three-dimensional multi-particle simulation,the generation of the low energy component and the pronounced filamentation are identified as the main causes of the discrepancy. The optimization of the tuning scheme is also discussed to attain the tuning goal accuracy for the first DTL tank.     

Kinetic Phase Transition in A2 ＋ 2B2 → 2B2A Reaction System with Particle Diffusion

A lattice gas model is presented for the A2 ＋2B2 → 2B2A reaction system with particle diffusion in two dimensions. In the model, B2 dissociates in the random dimer-filling mechanism and A2 dissociates in the end-on dimer filling mechanism. A reactive window appears and the system exhibits a continuous phase transition from a reactive state to a ＂B ＋ vacancy＂ covered state with infinitely many absorbing states. When the diffusion of particle B is considered, there are only two absorbing states. It is found that the critical behavior of the continuous phase transition changes from the directed percolation （DP） class to the pair contact process with diffusion （PCPD） class.     

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.     

Exploring bouncing cosmologies with cosmological surveys

From recent observational data two significant directions have been made in the field of theoretical cosmology recently.First,we are now able to make use of present observations,such as the Planck and BICEP2 data,to examine theoretical predictions from the standard inflationaryΛCDM which were made decades of years ago.Second,we can search for new cosmological signatures as a way to explore physics beyond the standard cosmic paradigm.In particular,a subset of early universe models admit a nonsingular bouncing solution that attempts to address the issue of the big bang singularity.These models have achieved a series of considerable developments in recent years,in particular in their perturbative frameworks,which made brand-new predictions of cosmological signatures that could be visible in current and forthcoming observations.Herein we present two representative paradigms of early universe physics.The first is the reputed new matter(or matter-ekpyrotic)bounce scenario in which the universe starts with a matter-dominated contraction phase and transitions into an ekpyrotic phase.In the setting of this paradigm,we have proposed some possible mechanisms of generating a red tilt for primordial curvature perturbations and confront the general predictions with recent cosmological observations.The second is the matter-bounce inflation scenario which can be viewed as an extension of inflationary cosmology with a matter contraction before inflation.We present a class of possible model constructions and review the implications on the current CMB experiments.Lastly a review of significant achievements of these paradigms beyond the inflationaryΛCDM model is made,which is expected to shed new light on the future direction of observational cosmology.     

Radiative Decay Bc → Ds*γ in the Technicolor with a Massless Scalar Doublet Model

Applying perturbative QCD, we study the process Bc → Dsγ in the technicolor with a massless scalar doublet model (TCMLSM). There are mainly two mechanisms contributing to the Bc → D*sγ process. One proceeds through the short distance b → sγ transition and the other through weak annihilation accompanied by a photon emission.We find that, compared with the standard model, the modification of Bc → D*sγ from πρ (the physical pions in the TCMLSM) is so small that can be neglected for the allowed mass ofπρ. The weak-annihilation contribution is found to be about one order larger than that of the electromagnetic penguin diagrams.     

Associated production of a neutral top-Higgs with a heavy-quark pair in the γγ collisions at ILC

We have studied the associated production processes of a neutral top-Higgs in the topcolor assisted technicolor model with a pair of heavy quarks in γγ collisions at the International Linear Collider （ILC）. We find that the cross section for ttht in γγ collisions is at the level of a few fb with the c.m. energy √s=1000 GeV, which is consistent with the results of the cross section of ttH in the standard model and the cross section of tth in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. It should be clear that hundreds of to thousands of ht per year can be produced at the ILC. This process of γγ→ttht is really interesting in testing the standard model and searching the signs of technicolor.

Dynamic control of retrieval contrast in a ∧-type atomic system

We propose an efficient scheme for optimizing the optical memory of a sequence of signal light pulses in a system of ultracold atoms in ∧ configuration.The memory procedure consists of write-in,storage,and retrieval phases.By applying a weak microwave field in the storage stage,additional phase-dependent terms are included,and the contrast of the output signal pulses can be dynamically controlled（enhanced or suppressed） through manipulating the relative phase φ between optical and microwave fields.Our numerical analysis shows that the contrast is enhanced to the most extent when φ = 1.5π.In addition,the contrast is in proportion to the Rabi frequency of the microwave field with a certain relative phase.
