LHCb anomaly in B→K~*μ~+μ~- optimised observables and potential of Z' model

Over the last few years LHCb found some discrepancies in b → sl~+l~-FCNC transitions, including anomalies in the angular observables of B→K~*μ~+μ~-, particularly in P′_5, in the low dimuon mass region. Recently,these anomalies have been confirmed by Belle, CMS and ATLAS. As direct evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model is absent so far, these anomalies are being interpreted as indirect hints of new physics. In this context, we study the implications of the family non-universal Z′ model for the angular observables P_(1,2,3), P′_(4,5,6) and newly proposed lepton flavor universality violation observables, Q_(4,5), in the B → K~*(→Kπ)μ~+μ~-decay channel in the low dimuon mass region. To see the variation in the values of these observables from their Standard Model values, we have chosen different scenarios for the Z′ model. It is found that these angular observables are sensitive to the values of the parameters of the Z′ model. We have also found that with the present parametric space of the Z′ model,the P′_5-anomaly could be accommodated. However, more statistics on the anomalies in the angular observables are helpful to reveal the status of the considered model and, in general, the nature of new physics.     

CORE POLARIZATION CORRECTIONS FOR THE PHOTOIONIZATION OF SODIUM

Many-body perturbation theory with an effective operator is applied to the calculations of photoionization of sodium by consistently including the static and dynamic core polarization. The cross section for the transition (2p→kd+ ks) is obtained by taking into account the dipole and quadrupole core polarization. The results are compared with the many-body perturbation results and measurements.     

Photoproduction of multi-meson final states — recent results from the Crystal-Barrel/TAPS experiment at ELSA-

Multi-meson final states such as γp →pπ0π0 and γp →pπ0η have been investigated with the Crystal-Barrel/TAPS experiment at ELSA. Baryon cascades via △π and △η and also via higher mass baryon resonances are clearly observed. Based on this data and on data from other reactions a partial wave analysis has been performed from which partial decay widths of various N＊ and △＊ states into the different pπ0π0 and pπ0η decay channels have been determined, leading partly to unexpected results. In addition, polarisation observables have been investigated. The beam asymmetry X has been determined for both reactions and double polarisation data using a longitudinally polarised target and a circularly or linearly polarised photon beam has been taken. Given the angular coverage of the Crystal-Baxrel/TAPS experiment this data covers almost the full angular range and phase space. This data will provide new and important information for the partial wave analyses and bring us one step closer towards a complete experiment.

Depolarization properties of cirrus clouds from polarization lidar measurements over Hefei in spring

A new polarization lidar has been developed for detecting depolarization characteristics of aerosol and cirrus over Hefei(31.90°N,117.16°E),China.The fundamental principle of polarization lidar is briefly introduced.Overall structure and specifications of the polarization lidar,as well as measurement method, are described.The observational results of depolarization ratio for cirrus over Hefei from February to May in 2005-2007 are presented and discussed.The exploring temperatures by radiosonde during the spring of 2005 are also presented and analyzed.The results show that the cirrus generally presents in the altitude from 7 to 12 km,and the depolarization ratio varies from 0.2 to 0.5.At the meanwhile,depolarization ratio appears a climbing tendency with the increasing height and the decreasing temperature.

Associative open charm photoproduction $$\gamma + N \to Y_c + \bar D_c (\bar D_c^ * ), Y_c = \Lambda _c^ + or \Sigma _c $$

We analyze polarization effects in associative photoproduction of pseudoscalar\((\bar D_c )\) and vector\((\bar D_c^ * )\) charmed mesons in exclusive processes\(\gamma + N \to Y_c + \bar D_c , Y_c = \Lambda _c^ + , \Sigma _c \). We calculate the differential cross section and all polarization observables in framework of au effective Lagrangian approach. In case of collinear kinematics it is possible to give model independent predictions for polarization observables in case of\(\bar D_c \) production, and the analysis for\(\bar D_c^ * \) is largely simplified.     

QED corrections to {\vec A}({\vec e},e'B)X and A({\vec e},e'{\vec B})X reactions: The case of tensor polarization

The model-independent leading radiative corrections to polarization observables in semi-inclusive longitudinally polarized electron-nucleus scattering with the registration of a produced hadron and scattered electron in coincidence were calculated using the Drell-Yan representation in electrodynamics. The cases of a tensor-polarized target or a produced hadron with tensor polarization were considered. The exclusive process of the electrodisintegration of a polarized deuteron was also studied.     

On the measurability of quantum correlation functions

The concept of correlation function is widely used in classical statistical mechanics to characterize how two or more variables depend on each other. In quantum mechanics, on the other hand, there are observables that cannot be measured at the same time; the so-called incompatible observables. This prospect imposes a limitation on the definition of a quantum analog for the correlation function in terms of a sequence of measurements. Here, based on the notion of sequential weak measurements, we circumvent this limitation by introducing a framework to measure general quantum correlation functions, in principle, independently of the state of the system and the operators involved. To illustrate, we propose an experimental configuration to obtain explicitly the quantum correlation function between two Pauli operators, in which the input state is an arbitrary mixed qubit state encoded on the polarization of photons.     

Some realizable joint measurements of complementary observables

Noncommuting quantum observables, if considered asunsharp observables, are simultaneously measurable. This fact is exemplified for complementary observables in two-dimensional state spaces. Two proposals of experimentally feasible joint measurements are presented for pairs of photon or neutron polarization observables and for path and interference observables in a photon split-beam experiment. A recent experiment proposed and performed by Mittelstaedt, Prieur, and Schieder in Cologne is interpreted as a partial version of the latter example.Work partly supported by the DFG, Bonn, and the BMFT, Bonn.Dedicated to Professor Ulrich Hauser on the occasion of his 60th birthday, November 1986.     

Polarization in hyperon photo- and electro-production<Superscript>⋆</Superscript>

Multiple polarization observables must be measured to access the amplitude structure of pseudoscalar meson photoproduction off the proton. The hyperon-producing reactions are especially attractive to study, since the weak decays allow straightforward measurement of the induced and recoil polarization observables. In this paper we emphasize γ + p → K ⁺ + Λ , discussing recent measurements of C_x, C_z, and P for this reaction. An empirical constraint on the helicity amplitudes is obtained. A simplified model involving spin-flip and spin-non-flip amplitudes is presented. Finally, a semi-classical model of how the polarization may arise is presented.     

The exclusive rare decays B \rightarrow k{\bar l}l and B_c \rightarrow D(D^*){\bar l}l in a relativistic quark model

We study the exclusive rare decay $B \rightarrow k{\bar l}l$ . We calculate the relevant form factors within a relativistic constituent quark model, for the first time without employing the impulse approximation. The calculated form factors are used to evaluate differential decay rates and polarization observables. We present results on the q²-dependence of a set of observables with and without long-distance contributions. A similar analysis is done for the exclusive rare decays $B_c \rightarrow D(D^*){\bar l}l$ with special emphasis on the cascade decay $B_c\to D^\ast(\to D\pi){\bar l} l$ . We derive a four-fold angular decay distribution for this process in terms of helicity amplitudes including lepton mass effects. The four-fold angular decay distribution allows to define a number of physical observables which are amenable to measurement. We compare our results with the results of other studies.     

Measurement of spin-transfer observables in p p-->Lambda Lambda at 1.637 GeV/c

Spin-transfer observables for p p-->Lambda Lambda have been measured using a transversely polarized frozen-spin target and a beam momentum of 1.637 GeV/c. Current models of the reaction near threshold are in good agreement with existing measurements performed with unpolarized particles in the initial state but produce conflicting predictions for the spin-transfer observables Dnn and Knn (the normal-to-normal depolarization and polarization transfer), which are measurable only with polarized target or beam. Measurements of Dnn and Knn presented here are found to be in disagreement with predictions from these models.     

Complete experiment in eN-elastic scattering, in presence of two-photon exchange

Using a general parametrization of the spin structure of the matrix element for elastic eN-scattering, in terms of three independent complex amplitudes, we found the expressions for all polarization observables, in electron–proton elastic scattering. This allows to suggest possible methods to measure the nucleon electromagnetic form factors, in presence of two-photon exchange. We show that the measurements of the differential cross section for electron and positron nucleon elastic scattering, in the same kinematical conditions, allows to extract the nucleon electromagnetic form factors. The same is correct for the polarization method, with the measurement of the P_x,z components of the final nucleon polarization (for the scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons and positrons). An alternative way, in absence of positron beam, is to measure a definite set of T-odd polarization observables, which includes three different experiments or only T-even observables, with five independent experiments. In both cases, the ratio G_E(Q²)/G_M(Q²) is related to quantities of the order of and requires different polarization experiments with very high accuracy.     

General survey of polarization observables in deuteron electrodisintegration

Polarization observables in inclusive and exclusive electrodisintegration of the deuteron using a polarized beam and an oriented target are systematically surveyed using the standard nonrelativistic framework of nuclear theory but with leading-order relativistic contributions included. The structure functions and the asymmetries corresponding to the various nucleon polarization components are studied in a variety of kinematic regions with respect to their sensitivity to realistic NN-potential models, to subnuclear degrees of freedom in terms of meson exchange currents, isobar configurations and to relativistic effects in different kinematical regions, serving as a benchmark for a test of present standard nuclear theory with effective degrees of freedom.
