Entropy Production Rate Changes in Lysogeny/Lysis Switch Regulation of Bacteriophage Lambda

According to the chemical kinetic model of lysogeny/lysis switch in Escherichia coli (E. coli) infected by bacteriophage λ, the entropy production rates of steady states are calculated. The results show that the lysogenic state has lower entropy production rate than lytic state, which provides an explanation on why the lysogenic state of λ phage is so stable. We also notice that the entropy production rates of both lysogenic state and lytic state are lower than that of saddle-point and bifurcation state, which is consistent with the principle of minimum entropy production for living organism in nonequilibrium stationary state. Subsequently, the relations between CI and Cro degradation rates at two bifurcations and the changes of entropy production rate with CI and Cro degradation are deduced. The theory and method can be used to calculate entropy change in other molecular network.     

Dynamical behaviors of a system with switches between the Rssler oscillator and Chua circuits

The behaviors of a system that alternates between the R¨ossler oscillator and Chua＇s circuit is investigated to explore the influence of the switches on the dynamical evolution.Switches related to the state variables are introduced,upon which a typical switching dynamical model is established.Bifurcation sets of the subsystems are derived via analysis of the related equilibrium points,which divide the parameters into several regions corresponding to different types of attractors.The dynamics behave typically in period orbits with the variation of the parameters.The focus/cycle periodic switching phenomenon is explored in detail to present the mechanism of the movement.The period-doubling bifurcation to chaos can be observed via the doubling increase of the turning points related to the switches.Furthermore,period-decreasing sequences have been obtained,which can be explained by the variation of the eigenvalues associated with the equilibrium points of the subsystems.     

Tuning and Validation of the Lundcharm Model with J/ψ Decays

Using J/ψ decays collected with the BES Ⅲ detector, Lundcharm model parameters are optimized with J/ψlight hadron decays. The dependence of the response function on model parameters is approximated up to the quadratic term, and the model parameters are optimized by simultaneously fitting J/ψ inclusive charged track distributions and event shapes. The Monte Carlo simulations show that optimal parameters yield satisfactory MC distributions as compared to both the J/ψ and ψ（2S） data distributions. These optimal values are suggested for the Lundcharm model to produce J/ψ and ψ（2S） decays to light hadrons.     

Boundary Correlation Functions of the gl（1/1） Supersymmetric Vertex Model

The gl（1/1） supersymmetric vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions （DWBC） on an N × N square lattice is considered. We derive the reduction formulae for the one-point boundary correlation functions of the model. The determinant representation for the boundary correlation functions is also obtained.     

Study of new boson W±1 in the Minimal Higgsless Model at the LHC

The Minimal Higgsless Model predicts the existence of new vector gauge boson W1^±, By the process PP →W1^±qq →W^±Z^0qq, Z^0→ 1^＋1^-, W^±→ qq （1=e,μ; q is hadronized to be jets）, we study the sensitivity of searching for this possible vector gauge boson in the level of generator events of signal and backgrounds, then give integrated luminosity required to discover 5σ signal as a function of W1^± mass. The generator for the signal PP → W1^±qq →W^±Z^0qq at tree level is developed with the Minimal Higgsless Model and then interfaced with PYTHIA for the patton showers and hadronization. The backgrounds are produced with MadGraph and PYTHIA.     

Dynamical study of the possible molecular state X（3872） with the s-channel one gluon exchange interaction

The recently observed X（3872） resonance, which is difficult to assign a conventional cc charmonium state in the quark model, may be interpreted as a molecular state. Such a molecular state is a hidden flavor four quark state because of its charmonium-like quantum numbers. The s-channel one gluon exchange is an interaction which only acts in the hidden flavor multi-quark system. In this paper, we will study the X（3872） and other similiar hidden flavor molecular states in a quark model by taking into account the s-channel one gluon exchange interaction.     

The laser-intensity dependence of the photoassociation spectrum of the ultracold Cs2（6S1/2 ＋ 6P1/2） 0＋ long-range molecular state

The high-resolution photoassociation spectrum of the ultracold cesium molecular 0＋ state below the 6S1/2 ＋ 6PI/2 limit is presented in this paper. The saturation of the photoassociation scattering probability is observed from the depen dence of the trap-loss probability on the photoassociation laser intensity. The corresponding resonant line width is also demonstrated to increase linearly with increasing photoassociation laser intensity. Our experimental data have good con sistency with the theoretical saturation model of Bohn and Julienne [Bohn J L and Julienne P S 1999 Phys. Rev. A 60 1].
