Mini-review of rare charmonium decays at BESⅢ

Recently, the LHCb experiment announced 3.5σ evidence for direct CP violation in D⁰ decay by looking at the difference between A_CP(D⁰→K⁺K^-) and A_CP(D⁰→π⁺π^-). This is the rst evidence of CP violation in a charm system, which may indicate new physics beyond the Standard Model. Motivated by this measurement, we review rare processes in charmonium decay, especially, the weak decay, C or P violated decay, and lepton avor violated decays. In case the new physics appears in charm sector, these rare decays of charmonium states will provide an opportunity to search for signi cant contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model. With huge J/ψ and ψ(2S) samples in BES0 experiment, the rare decays may be feasible.     

Designing of the 14 MeV neutron moderator for BNCT

In boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), the ratio of the fast neutron flux to the neutron flux in the tumor (RFNT) must be less than 3%. If a D-T neutron generator is used in BNCT, the 14 MeV neutron moderator must be optimized to reduce the RFNT. Based on the neutron moderation theory and the simulation results, tungsten, lead and diamond were used to moderate the 14 MeV neutrons. Satisfying RFNT of less than 3%, the maximum neutron flux in the tumor was achieved with a three-layer moderator comprised of a 3 cm thick tungsten layer, a 14 cm thick lead layer and a 21 cm thick diamond layer.     

红沿河核电站基岩爆破的控制标准

以辽宁红沿河核电站核岛基础爆破开挖为例,分析了核岛基础不同区域的岩体力学特性以及各层 开挖时岩体允许损伤深度的差异,指出必须根据实际情况提出岩体爆炸振动控制方法和标准。在此基础上, 基于爆破振动监测和声波实验,分析了岩体爆破振动以及损伤特征,建立了核岛基础爆破开挖时岩体损伤深 度与振动速度之间的经验公式,提出了不同区域、不同允许损伤深度的情况下岩体爆炸振动速度控制标准。 研究结果表明,通过监测距爆源一定距离处的岩体质点振动速度控制爆炸损伤深度的方法是合适和有效的。     

北京谱仪实验物理成果

当前描述物质微观基本结构最成功的理论是粒子物理的标准模型,包括描述强作用力的量子色动力学,描述弱相互作用和电磁作用力的电弱理论。在量子色动力学方面,人们对夸克禁闭问题和低能非微扰性质还不能完全理解;在电弱理论方面,需要实验上提供更加精确的参数约束和检验。北京正负电子对撞机和北京谱仪实验是我国最早的大科学装置,也是目前国际上唯一运行在陶粲能量区域的高亮度实验装置,致力于在强子物理、量子色动力学的非微扰性质、电弱理论检验和寻找超标准模型的新物理等方面开展研究。文章将介绍北京谱仪多年来在实验上取得的科学成果,包括陶轻子质量精确测量、R值测量、奇特强子态研究和粲强子弱衰变测量等。
