Confinement in the lattice Landau Gauge QCD simulation
The running coupling and the Kugo‐Ojima parameter of the confinement criterion are measured for the quenched SU(3) β = 6.4, 6.45, 564 lattice and the unquenched β = 5.2, 203 × 48 lattice of JLQCD, β = 2.1, κ = 0.1357, 0.1382, 243 × 48 lattice of CP‐PACS and βimp = 6.76, amu,d = 0.007, 6.83, amu,d = 0.040, 203 × 64 lattice of MILC collaboration.The quenched SU(3) 564 lattice data suggest presence of infrared fixed point of αs = 2.5(5) and the approach of the ensemble of the 1st copy to the Gribov boundary. The running coupling of q > 2GeV can be fitted by the perturbative QCD(pQCD) + c/q2 correction. We find the Kugo‐Ojima parameter u(0) = −0.83(3).The rotational symmetry of the gluon propagator of the unquenched SU(3) is partially recovered, but its magnitude depends on whether the Wilson fermion or the Kogut‐Susskind(KS) fermion are coupled to the gauge field. The gluon propagator coupled to KS fermion is more suppressed than that coupled to Wilson fermion. The running coupling inherits the same trend. T...

Numerical studies of confinement in the lattice Landau gauge
Critical conjectures on confinement in the Landau gauge is numerically tested in focus to Gribov copy effects. One of the subjects is of the Kugo-Ojima confinement criterion and the other is of various viewpoints in the Gribov-Zwanziger theory. We use the smearing gauge as a reference gauge free of Gribov copy, and performed three types of simulations, log U, U-linear and log U in the smearing gauge. It is found that Gribov copy effect on the Kugo-Ojima parameter is small. log U and U-linear simulations yield only global scale factor difference in gluon propagator, but nontrivial difference of momentum behaviour in ghost propagator, and about 10% difference in Kugo-Ojima parameter. The horizon function defined by Zwanziger is evaluated in three types of gauge field and compared. All data show the negative horizon function as expected.

Spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry in a vector-gluon model
Solutions of the self-consistent equation for fermion propagator in a vector-gluon model are fully examined. The equation is characterized by a set of parameters, i.e., the coupling constant g, the bare mass of the fermion mo and the cutoff A. It is proved that with a suitable gauge chosen, the equation without ~utoff has solutions ·only in the case mo=O, It is then shown that, if g'/4n Bn, the "normal-state" solution for the equation without cutoff, even if it existed, should necessarily have an unphysical singularity. This fact implies that the "normal-state" solution becomes unstable for a su.fficiently large value of g'. § l. Introduction The. reason for success of low energy theorems obtained by current algebra and PCAC-treatment may be well understood in terms of chiral symmetry in which the pseudoscalar mesons play a special role among hadtons as the Nambu­ Goldstone (NG) bosons1l transforming nonlinearly under chiral transformation. On the other hand, in the composite hadron models based on SU(3) or SU(6), it is clear that there is no vital distinction between pseudoscalar mesons and others such as vector- and tensor-mesons. It is therefore worth expecting that the pseudoscalar NG bosons can also be interpreted as the bound states in con­ formity with the viewpoint of the composite model. . This homogeneity and· heterogeneity ot the pseudoscalar mesons to other mesons should rather be in­ vestigated by comparing their internal structure with composite particles· . . In this respect it would be meaningful to study a model in which spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry is realized by a composite NG boson: The Nambu­ Jona-Lasinio model2l is known as such an example. However, the use of chain approximation and the momentum cutoff inevitable for the local four-fermion

Roles of the quark field in the infrared lattice Coulomb gauge and Landau gauge QCD
Fac of Infor Sci; Utsunomiya Univ, Utsunomiya, 320-8585 JapanE-mail:nakajima@is.utsunomiya-u.ac.jpThe effective coupling of QCD is measured by using the gauge conﬁgurations produced by theMILC collaboration in which the Kogut Susskind (KS) fermion is incorporated and by using thatproducedby the QCDOC collaborationin which the domain wall fermion (DWF) is incorporated.We ﬁx the gauge to the Landau gauge and to the Coulomb gauge. Th e infrared effective couplingin the Coulomb gauge agrees with the recent extraction at JLab, but that in the Landau gaugeshows infrared suppression. The suppression is expected to be due to the color anti-symmetricghost propagator which in the unquenched conﬁgurations has stronger infrared singularity thanthe color diagonal ghost propagator. The Coulomb form factor in the infrared depends on the kindof the fermion incorporated in the system and the temperature.The quark has the effect of quenching randomness and the ﬂuct uation of the color anti-symmetricghost propagator is reduced in the unquenched conﬁguration , and the Kugo-Ojima parameterc iscloser to 1 in the unquenched conﬁguration than in the quench ed conﬁguration.The XXV International Symposium on Lattice Field TheoryJuly 30 - August 4 2007Regensburg, Germany

Deformation of super Yang-Mills theories in R-R 3-form background
We study deformation of = 2 and = 4 super Yang-Mills theories, which are obtained as the low-energy effective theories on the (fractional) D3-branes in the presence of constant Ramond-Ramond 3-form background. We calculate the Lagrangian at the second order in the deformation parameter from open string disk amplitudes. In = 4 case we find that all supersymmetries are broken for generic deformation parameter but part of supersymmetries are unbroken for special case. We also find that classical vacua admit fuzzy sphere configuration. In = 2 case we determine the deformed supersymmetries. We rewrite the deformed Lagrangians in terms of = 1 superspace, where the deformation is interpreted as that of coupling constants.

X-Ray Observation on the Monoceros R2 Star-Forming Region with the Chandra ACIS-I Array
We report on the results of the Chandra ACIS-I observation on the central region of the Monoceros R2 cloud (Mon R2), a high-mass star-forming region (SFR) at a distance of 830pc. With a deep exposure of ∼ 100ks, we detected 368 X-ray sources, ∼80% of which were identified with the near-infrared (NIR) counterparts. We systematically analyzed the spectra and time variability of most of the X-ray emitting sources and provided a comprehensive X-ray source catalog for the first time. Using the J-, H-, and K-band magnitudes of the NIR counterparts, we estimated the evolutionary phase (classical T Tauri stars and weak-lined T Tauri stars) and the mass of the X-ray emitting sources, and analyzed the X-ray properties as a function of the age and mass. We found a marginal hint that classical T Tauri stars have a slightly higher temperature (2.4keV) than that of weak-lined T Tauri stars (2.0keV). A significant fraction of the high- and intermediate-mass sources have a time variability and high plasma temperatures (2.7keV) similar to those of low-mass sources (2.0keV). We performed the same analysis for other SFRs, the Orion Nebula Cluster and Orion Molecular Cloud-2/3, and obtained similar results to Mon R2. This supports the earlier results of this observation obtained by Kohno et al. (2002, ApJ, 567, 423) and Preibisch et al. (2002, A&A, 392, 945) that high- and intermediate-mass young stellar objects emit X-rays via magnetic activity. We also found a significant difference in the spatial distribution between X-ray and NIR sources.

Instanton calculus in R-R 3-form background and deformed = 2 super Yang-Mills theory
We study the ADHM construction of instantons in = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory deformed in constant Ramond-Ramond (R-R) 3-form field strength background in type IIB superstrings. We compare the deformed instanton effective action with the effective action of fractional D3/D(−1) branes at the orbifold singularity of C2/Z2 in the same R-R background. We find discrepancy between them at the second order in deformation parameters, which comes from the coupling of the translational zero modes of the D(−1)-branes to the R-R background. We improve the deformed action by adding a term with space-time dependent gauge coupling. Although the space-time action differs from the action in the Ω-background, both actions lead to the same instanton equations of motion at the lowest order in gauge coupling.

Testing the seesaw mechanism at collider energies in the Randall-Sundrum model
The Randall-Sundrum model with gauge fields and fermions in the bulk has several attractive features including the gauge coupling unification, a candidate for the dark matter, and an explanation for the hierarchical Yukawa couplings. 
In this paper, we point out that the 1st Kaluza-Klein modes of right-handed neutrinos may be produced at colliders, for both Dirac and Majorana neutrino cases. Furthermore, we can see whether the neutrino masses are Dirac type or Majorana type from the mass spectrum of KK particles.

The Suzaku Observation of RCW 86 Northeastern Shell
This paper reports the Suzaku results on the northeast shell of RCW 86. With the spatial and spectral analysis, we separated the X-rays into three distinct components; low (kTe ∼0.3 keV) and high (kTe ∼1.8 keV) temperature plasmas and a non-thermal component, and discovered their spatial distributions are different from each other. The low temperature plasma is dominated at the east rim, whereas the non-thermal emission is the brightest at the northeast rim which is spatially connected from the east rim. The high temperature plasma, found to contain the ∼6.42 keV line (Kα of low-ionized iron), is enhanced at the inward region with respect to the east rim and has no spatial correlation with the non-thermal X-ray (the northeast). The FeKα line, therefore, is not related to the non-thermal emission but originates from Fe-rich ejecta heated to the high temperatures by the reverse shock. Since the metal abundances of the low temperature plasma are sub-solar, the most possible origin of this component is interstellar medium heated by a blast wave. The non-thermal X-ray, which has a power-law index of ∼ 2.8, is likely to be synchrotron emission. A possible scenario to explain these morphologies and spectra is: A fast moving blast wave in a thin cavity of OB association collided with a dense interstellar medium or cloud at the east region very recently. As the result, the reverse shock in this interior decelerated, and arrived at the Fe-rich region of the ejecta and heated it. In the
