With 7.8 million produced J/ψ events collected by the BES detector at the BEPC, the decay J/ψ→Σ⁰Σ⁰ is analysed. The branching ratio is measured to be BR(J/ψ→Σ⁰Σ⁰)=(0.97±0.04±0.24)×10^－3. The angular distribution is of the form dN dcosθ=N₀(1+α cos²θ) with α value of －0.21±0.27±0.13.     

Rovibrational spectroscopy of the Fermi-interacting ν4 = 1 and ν3 = ν6 = 1 levels of DCF3

The high-resolution infrared spectrum of deuterated fluoroform (DCF₃) was studied in the 700 and 1200 cm⁻¹ regions, with the aim of assigning and analyzing the ν₄ CF₃ asymmetric stretching vibration. The Fermi-type anharmonic coupling between the ν₄ = 1 and ν₃ = ν₆ = 1 rovibrational levels, already mentioned in an early work of Ruoff et al. [Spectrochimica Acta Part A 31A (1975) 1099-1100], was studied here for the first time under high resolution. Assignments in the ν₃ + ν₆/ν₄ band system were confirmed and extended by the identification of the ν₃ + ν₆ − ν₆ and ν₄-ν₆ bands in the 700 cm⁻¹ region, the latter being enhanced near the Fermi crossings of the studied levels. Data from both the hot and difference bands were included in the analysis. The close separation of the studied vibrational levels of about 14.8 cm⁻¹ produces a large variety of resonance crossings which involve levels with . Besides the Fermi () and Coriolis () resonances, they were accounted for by inclusion of additional higher-order ( and ) interaction terms between the vibrational states. The least-squares fit of more that 16,000 vibration-rotation transitions provides a quantitative reproduction of data in all bands.     

A simulation study on the measurement of D0-D0 mixing parameter y at BESⅢ

We established a method on measuring the D⁰-D⁰ mixing parameter y for BESⅢ experiment at the BEPCⅡ e⁺e^－ collider. In this method, the doubly tagged π(3770) →D⁰-D⁰ events, with one D decays to CP-eigenstates and the other D decays semileptonically, are used to reconstruct the signals. Since this analysis requires good e/π separation, a likelihood approach, which combines the dE/dx, time of flight and the electromagnetic shower detectors information, is used for particle identification. We estimate the sensitivity of the measurement of y to be 0.007 based on a 20fb^-1 fully simulated MC sample.     

The rotational spectra of the υ8 = υ9 = 1 and υ6 = υ7 = 1 interacting vibrational states of nitric acid (HNO3)

The analysis of the rotational spectrum of HNO₃ has been extended to include the υ₈ = υ₉ = 1 state at 1205.7 cm⁻¹ and the υ₆ = υ₇ = 1 state at 1223.4 cm⁻¹. Based on 78-519 GHz data, the assignments in the 8¹9¹ vibrational state have been significantly expanded from the previously reported microwave measurements [T.M. Goyette, F.C. De Lucia, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 139 (1990) 241-243]. A new microwave analysis is also reported for the 6¹7¹ vibrational state. A simultaneous analysis takes into account the localized ΔK_a = ±2 Fermi resonances between the vibrational states, describes the torsional splitting of 3.3 and 1.4 MHz for the 8¹9¹ and 6¹7¹ states respectively, and fits to experimental accuracy over 1500 rotational transition frequencies that extend up to J = 59. Infrared energy levels [A. Perrin, J.-M. Flaud, F. Keller, A. Goldman, R. D. Blatherwick, F. J. Murcray, C. P. Rinsland, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 194 (1999) 113-123] were also included in the analysis and fit to experimental accuracy. Measurement of strongly perturbed transitions in each vibrational state provide a determination of the band origin difference of 17.733184(17) cm⁻¹. The rotational constants agree well with those predicted by vibrational-rotational constants of the fundamental modes. Furthermore, the analysis will provide a very accurate simulation of the infrared spectrum of HNO₃ in the 8.3 μm region.     

Study of W-Exchange Mode D0 → ФK0

We calculate the branching ratio of rare decay D^0→ФK using the perturbative QCD factorization approach based on kT factorization. Our result shows this branching ratio is （8.7 ± 1.4） x 10^-3, which is consistent with experimental data. We hope that the CLEO-C and BES-Ⅲ can measure it more accurately, which will help us to understand QCD dynamics and D meson weak decays.     

Si中S0/Se0,S0/Te0和Se0/Te0对的电子结构

利用紧束缚近似下的格林函数方法,讨论了Si中硫属元素混对杂质(即S⁰/Se⁰,S⁰/Te⁰和Se⁰/Te⁰)基态的电子结构。混对杂质在Si禁带中引入两个A₁能级,其中成键性的A₁能级位置在反键性的A₁能级之上。数值计算得到的混对杂质能级与实验符合得相当好。理论分析表明,在Si中测到的那些未定的比最近邻混对杂质能级更浅的能级(S⁰/Se⁰(X₁),S⁰/Te⁰(X₁),Se⁰/Te⁰(X₁)…)不是由非最近邻位型的混对杂质引入的。本文还指出了一个极性分子放入Si晶体中,两个不同原子间s波函数的转移方向与通常极性分子相反,并讨论其物理原因。 关键词：     

Frequency comb-referenced measurements of self- and nitrogen-broadening in the ν1 + ν3 band of acetylene

We report measurements of self- and nitrogen-pressure broadening of the P(11) line in the ν₁ + ν₃ combination band of acetylene at 195 739.649 5135(80) GHz by absorption of radiation emitted by an extended cavity diode laser referenced to a femtosecond frequency comb. Broadening, shift and narrowing parameters were determined at 296 K. For the most appropriate, hard collision, model in units of cm⁻¹/atm, we find 0.146317(27), 0.047271(104) and −0.0070819(22) for the acetylene self-broadening, narrowing and shift, and 0.081129(35), 0.022940(74) and −0.0088913(25) respectively, for the nitrogen-broadening parameters. The uncertainties are expressed as one standard deviation (in parenthesis) in units of the last digit reported. These parameters are 2-3 orders of magnitude more precise than those reported in previous measurements. Similar analyses of the experimental data using soft collision and simple Voigt lineshape models were made for comparison.     

Angular dependence of the polarization of the recoil proton from the reaction γp→π0p in the region of the third resonance

The polarization of the recoil proton from the reactionp ⁰ p has been measured for photon energies between 900–1,350 MeV and pion c.m. angles between 70° and 150°. There are significant deviations from recent analysis.     

Infrared spectra of the polar and nonpolar N2O dimers in the 1280 cm region of the ν3 fundamental

The high-resolution infrared spectrum of the polar N₂O dimer has been observed in the region of the N₂O ν₃ fundamental (∼1280 cm⁻¹) using a tunable diode laser to probe a pulsed supersonic slit jet. About 120 rotational transitions were assigned in terms of an a/b hybrid band of a planar asymmetric top molecule with a slipped parallel structure. The vibrational origin was determined to be 1290.21 cm⁻¹, showing a blue shift of 5.31 cm⁻¹ with respect to the monomer band origin. In addition, the spectrum of the nonpolar isomer at 1279.71 cm⁻¹ has been remeasured and analyzed in improved detail. Small but widespread perturbations are noted in this band, which appear somewhat similar to larger effects observed previously in the ν₁ + ν₃ region for nonpolar (N₂O)₂.     

Analysis of the decay B0→χclπ0 with light-cone QCD sum rules

In this article,we calculate the contribution from the nonfactorizable soft hadronic matrix element to the decay B~0→χc1~π~0 with the light-cone quantum chromo-dynamic(QCD) sum rules.The numerical results show that its contribution is rather large and should not be neglected.The total amplitudes lead to a branching fraction which is in agreement with the experimental data marginally.     

S wave of pion-pion scattering from data on the reaction π?p → π0π0n

The results of recent experiments performed at KEK, Brookhaven National Laboratory, the Institute for High-Energy Physics (Protvino), and CERN to study the reaction π ⁻ p → π ⁰ π ⁰ n are analyzed in detail. For S-wave pion-pion scattering in the channel of isospin I=0, new data are obtained for the phase shift δ ₀ ⁰ and the inelasticity parameter η ₀ ⁰ . Difficulties that arise in using, for the amplitudes of the S and D waves of the final π ⁰ π ⁰ system, physical solutions selected on the basis of partial-wave analyses are discussed. It is noteworthy that other solutions are preferable in principle in the region of the invariant mass m of the π ⁰ π ⁰ system above 1 GeV. With the aim of clarifying the situation and further studying the properties of the f ₀(980) resonance, it is proposed to perform, in the reaction π ⁻ p → π ⁰ π ⁰ n, an especially careful examination of the m region in the vicinity of the threshold. __________ Translated from Yadernaya Fizika, Vol. 67, No. 7, 2004, pp. 1380–1391.

Electromagnetic decays of radially excited mesons π0′, ρ0′, ω0′, and production of π0′ at lepton colliders

Radiative decays π ⁰(π ^0′) → γ + γ, π ^0′ → ρ ⁰(ω) + γ, ρ ^0′(ω′) → π ⁰ + γ, ρ ^0′(ω′) → π ^0′ + γ, and some processes of π ^0′ production at lepton colliders are considered in the framework of the nonlocal SU(2) × SU(2) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. Mixing of the radially excited and the ground meson states is taken into account. Numerical results for the decay and production processes are presented.     

Measurement of the τ Polarization Asymmetry in τ→a1 v→π±π0π0v Decay at Z0 Peak

The τ polarization asymmetry in τ→a₁v→π^±π⁰ π⁰v decay at Z⁰ peak is measured using data collected by L3 detector at LEP in 1992 and 1993, A_pol=－0.239±0.126±0.100, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. And the effective electroweak mixing angle sin²θ_w=0.2197±0.0219 is derived.     

Interaction of H2S with α-Fe2O3(0 0 0 1) surface

The atomic-scale structural changes in an α-Fe₂O₃ (hematite) (0 0 0 1) surface induced by sulfidation and subsequent oxidation processes were studied by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, LEED, and X-ray standing wave (XSW) measurements. Annealing the α-Fe₂O₃(0 0 0 1) with a H₂S partial pressure of 1 × 10⁻⁷ Torr produced iron sulfides on the surface as the sulfur atoms reacted with the substrate Fe ions. The oxidation state of the substrate Fe changed from 3+ to 2+ as a result of the sulfidation. The XSW measured distance of the sulfur atomic-layer from the unrelaxed substrate oxygen layer was 3.16 Å. The sulfide phase consisted of three surface domains identified by LEED. Formation of the two-dimensional FeS₂ phase with structural parameters consistent with an outermost layer of (1 1 1) pyrite has been proposed. Atomic oxygen exposure oxidized the surface sulfide to a sulfate () and regenerated the α-Fe₂O₃(0 0 0 1) substrate, which was indicated by a (1 × 1) LEED pattern and the re-oxidization of Fe to 3+.     

Study of pure annihilation decays Bd,s→D0D0

Within the heavy quark limit and the hierarchy approximation λ_QCD<< m_D<B, we analyze the B→D⁰D⁰ and B_s→D⁰D⁰ decays, which occur purely via annihilation type diagrams. As a rough estimate, we calculate their branching ratios and CP asymmetries in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach. The branching ratio of B→D⁰D⁰ is about 3.8×10^－5 that is just below the latest experimental upper limit. The branching ratio of B_s→D⁰D⁰ is about 6.8×10^－4, which could be measured in LHC-b. From the calculation, it is found that this branching ratio is not sensitive to the weak phase angle γ. In these two decay modes, there exist CP asymmetries because of the interference between weak and strong interaction. However, these asymmetries are too small to be measured easily.

Solvent effects on the S0→S2 absorption spectra of β-carotene

Absorption spectra of β-carotene in 31 solvents are measured in ambient conditions. Solvent effects on the 0-0 band energy, the bandwidth, and the transition moment of the S 0 → S 2 transition are analysed. The discrepancies between published results of the solvent effects on the 0-0 band energy are explained by taking into account microscopic solute-solvent interactions. The contributions of polarity and polarizability of solvents to 0-0 band energy and bandwidth are quantitatively distinguished. The 0-0 transition energy of the S 2 state at the gas phase is predicted to locate between 23000 and 23600 cm-1 .     

Experimental Study of f0 (975) in the J/ψ Decays

Based on 7.8×10⁶ J/ψ events collected by the BES at BEPC, through study of the hadronic decays J/ψ→φπ⁺π^－ and J/ψ→ωπ⁺π^－, the branching ratios of the processes and the mass positions and the widths of f0 are obtained. The angular distributions of J/ψ→φf₀,f₀→π⁺π^－, are fitted and the helicity amplitude ratio of this process is first given.     

High-resolution infrared spectroscopy of the interacting ν9, ν5 + ν6 and 3ν6 levels of CH2BrF

The high-resolution (0.0030 cm⁻¹) Fourier transform infrared spectrum of CH₂⁷⁹BrF has been studied in part of the atmospheric window between 910 and 980 cm⁻¹, the region of the ν₉ (935.847 cm⁻¹) and ν₅ + ν₆ (961.239 cm⁻¹) bands. The ν₉ fundamental consists of a pseudo a-type band induced by Coriolis coupling with ν₅ + ν₆, in turn exhibiting a predominant a-type structure. Several interactions connecting these levels and the dark state 3ν₆ have been assessed. The whole data set is treated using Watson’s A-reduced Hamiltonian in the I^r representation implemented with first order a- and b- and c-type Coriolis terms. A detailed analysis of the rotational structure yields a set of accurate upper-state parameters up to quartic distortion terms for ν₉ and ν₅ + ν₆. In addition, spectroscopic information about the dark ternary overtone of ν₆ has been obtained.
