带有两个重夸克的重子谱计算中几个困难问题的研究

由两个重夸克和一个轻夸克组成的重子可以看作是一个两体系统.它的两个重夸克组成一个玻色型的双夸克团.利用B–S方程导出了它的轻夸克和重的双夸克之间的等效相互作用势.在利用这种势计算重子质量的过程中,发现有几个困难问题需要深入探讨.它们是:(1)算符排序,(2)由非相对论展开带来的误差,(3)自旋–自旋耦合,(4)在标量双夸克组成的重子态和矢量双夸克组成的重子态之间的混合.本文详细地讨论并适当地处理了这些问题.     

探索两个世界的分界线

据2008年9月27日美国Science News报道:9月3日费米实验室的Dzero探测器发言人DmitriDenisov宣布,他们发现了一个由底夸克和围绕着它旋转的两个奇异夸克组成的奇异粒子,该粒子被命名为Ωb-(Omega-b-minus).这是继1964.年发现由3个奇异夸克组成的奇异粒子后,又一个符合粒子物理标准模型所预见的粒子.美国斯坦福直线加速器中心的物理学家Michael Peskin誉此发现为装饰在美妙理论桂冠上的又一根羽毛.     

Probing Quark Loop Effects on Dressed Gluon Propagator

We study the quark loop effects on the dressed gluon propagator and also on the quark propagator itself. We find that the gluon propagators are different in two phases. The quark mass effects on the gluon propagator are small but not negligible. We also study the current quark mass dependence on the bag constant.     

Two-Quark Condensate Changes with Quark Current Mass

Using the Schwinger Dyson equation and perturbation theory, we calculate the two-quark condensates for the light quarks u, d, strange quark s and a heavy quark c with their current masses respectively. The results show that the two-quark condensate will decrease when the quark mass increases, which hints the chiral symmetry may be restored for the heavy quarks.     

Study on Bd → φKs Decay in EDQS Model

We study Bd → φKs decay in extra down-type quarks （EDQS） model with a non-universal Z boson associated with flavor changing neutral currents （FCNCs） at the tree level. With the up-to-date experimental data of Br（Bd → φKs）, SCKs, and ACKs, we derive the bounds on the Z-b-s coupling parameter ｜Ubs ｜ and the new weak phase φ, using the constrained parameter spaces, we finally give predictions for Bd → φφ decay, which could be tested at the Fermilab Tevatron and the LHC-b experiments.     

Properties of hybrid stars in an extended MIT bag model

The properties of hybrid stars are investigated in the framework of the relativistic mean field theory （RMFT） and an MIT bag model with density-dependent bag constant to describe the hadron phase （HP） and quark phase （QP）, respectively. We find that the density-dependent B（p） decreases with baryon density p; this decrement makes the strange quark matter become more energetically favorable than ever, which makes the threshold densities of the hadron-quark phase transition lower than those of the original bag constant case. In this case, the hyperon degrees of freedom can not be considered. As a result, the equations of state of a star in the mixed phase （MP） become softer whereas those in the QP become stiffer, and the radii of the star obviously decrease. This indicates that the extended MIT bag model is more suitable to describe hybrid stars with small radii.     

The N* physics program at Jefferson Lab

Recent measurements of nucleon resonance transition form factors with CLAS at Jefferson Lab are discussed. The new data confirm the assertion of the symmetric constituent quark model of the Roper as the first radial excitation of the nucleon. The data on high Q2 nπ＋ production better constrain the branching ratios liNK and [3Nn. For the first time, the longitudinal transition amplitude to the S11（1535） was extracted from the nπ＋ data. Also, new results on the transition amplitudes for the D13（1520） resonance are presented showing a rapid transition from helicity 3/2 dominance seen at the real photon point to helicty 1/2 dominance at higher Q2. I also discuss the status of the search for new excited nucleon states.
