The Isospin Splittings of Heavy-Light Quark Systems
The mass splittings of the pseudoscalar and vector D and B light-heavy quark systems have been calculated using the method of QCD sum rules. Electromagnetic, quark mass, and nonperturbative QCD effects are all included. The results are in good agreement with experiment. A measurement of isospin splitting for the vector B mesons would give valuable information about quark mass splittings.

The Kaon-Photoproduction Of Nucleons In The Chiral Quark Model
In this paper, we develop a general framework to study the mesonphotoproductions of nucleons in the chiral quark model. The S and U channel resonance contributions are expressed in terms of the ChewGoldberger-Low-Nambu (CGLN) amplitudes. The kaon-photoproduction processes, γp → K+Λ, γp → K+Σ0, and γp → K0Σ+, are calculated. The initial results show that the quark model provides a much improved description of the reaction mechanism for the kaon-photoproductions of the nucleon with less parameters than the traditional phenomenological approaches.

Octupole degree of freedom for nuclei near 152Sm in a reflection-asymmetric relativistic mean-field approach
The potential energy surfaces of even-even isotopes near 152Sm are investigated within the constrained reflection-asymmetric relativistic mean-field approach using parameter sets PK1 and NL3. It is shown that the critical-point candidate nucleus 152Sm marks the shape/phase transition not only from U(5) to SU(3) symmetry, but also from the octupole deformed ground state in 150Sm to the quadrupole deformed ground state in 154Sm. The important role of the octupole deformation driving pair (?2f7/2, ?1i13/2) is demonstrated based on the components of the single-particle levels near the Fermi surface. In addition, the patterns of both the proton and the neutron octupole deformation driving pairs (?2f7/2, ?1i13/2) and (?2d5/2, ?1h11/2) are investigated.

Longitudinal transitions of baryon resonances in the constituent quark model
A longitudinal transition operator that satisfies the gauge invariance requirement is introduced in the constituent quark model. The corresponding longitudinal transitions from the ground state of the nucleon to resonances of the baryon are calculated. The study shows that the longitudinal coupling plays an important role in the understanding of the structure of the baryon.

Strong couplings of heavy mesons to a light vector meson in QCD
We make a detailed analysis of the $BB\rho(DD\rho)$ and $B^*B\rho(D^{*}D\rho)$ strong couplings $g_{BB\rho}(g_{DD\rho})$ and $g_{B^*B\rho}(g_{D^{*}D\rho})$ using QCD light cone sum rules(LCSR). The existing some negligence is pointed out in the previous LCSR calculation on $g_{B^*B\rho} (g_{D^{\ast}D\rho}$) and an updated estimate is presented. Our findings can be used to understand the behavior of the $B,D \to \rho$ semileptonic form factors at large momentum transitions.

Systematic study on QCD interactions of heavy mesons with ρ meson
Abstract The strong interactions of the negative-parity heavy mesons with ρ meson may be described consistently in the context of an effective Lagrangian, which is invariant under isospin SU ( 2 ) transformation. Four coupling constants g H H ρ , f H ∗ H ρ , g H ∗ H ∗ ρ and f H ∗ H ∗ ρ enter the effective Lagrangian, where H ( H ∗ ) denotes a pseudoscalar bottom or charm meson (the corresponding vector meson). Using QCD light cone sum rule (LCSR) method and, as inputs, the hadronic parameters updated recently, we give an estimate of g H ∗ H ∗ ρ and f H ∗ H ∗ ρ , about which little was known before, and present an improved result for g H H ρ and f H ∗ H ρ . Also, we examine the heavy quark asymptotic behavior of these nonperturbative quantities and assess the two low energy parameters β and λ of the corresponding effective chiral Lagrangian.

The Black Hole Fundamental Plane: Revisited with a Larger Sample of Radio and X-Ray-Emitting Broad-Line AGNs
We use a recently released SDSS catalog of X-ray-emitting AGNs in conjunction with the FIRST radio survey to investigate the black hole (BH) fundamental plane relationship between the 1.4 GHz radio luminosity ( -->Lr), 0.1-2.4 keV X-ray luminosity ( -->LX), and black hole mass ( -->M), namely, -->log Lr = ξRXlog LX + ξRMlog M + constant . For this purpose, we compile a large sample of 725 broad-line AGNs, which consists of 498 radio-loud sources and 227 radio-quiet sources. We confirm that radio-loud objects have a steeper slope ( -->ξRX) with respect to radio-quiet objects and that the dependence of the BH fundamental plane on the BH mass ( -->ξRM) is weak. We also find tight correlation with a similar slope between the soft X-ray luminosity and broad emission-line luminosity for both radio-loud and radio-quiet AGNs, which implies that their soft X-ray emission is unbeamed and probably related to the accretion process. With the current larger sample, we find that there is no clear evidence of evolution for radio-quiet AGNs, while for radio-loud ones there is a weak trend in which -->ξRM decreases as the redshift increases. This may be understood in part as due to the observed evolution of the radio spectral index as a function of redshift. Finally, we discuss the relativistic beaming effect and other uncertainties related to the BH fundamental plane. We conclude that, although it does introduce scatter into the fundamental plane relation, Doppler boosting alone is not enough to explain the observed steeper value of -->ξRX in the radio-loud subsample with respect to the radio-quiet ones.

Progress in CTEQ-TEA PDF analysis
Recent developments in the CTEQ-TEA global QCD analysis are presented. The parton distribution functions CT10-NNLO are described, constructed by comparing data from many experiments to NNLO approximations of QCD. The global analysis of QCD makes use of experimental data from many short-distance scattering processes to construct, within some approximations, universal parton distribution functions (PDFs) for the proton. Then these functions can be used to calculate hadronic cross sections in the Standard Model and other theories. Global analysis and the resulting PDFs are necessary for the interpretation of experimental results at hadron colliders. Recently published PDFs are based on next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) approximations for perturbative QCD[1]. Complete calculations for this order of approximation are available for the running coupling s(Q), PDF evolution in Q, matrix elements in deep-inelastic scattering [2] and vector boson production [3]. The CTEQ analysis treats quark-mass eects in the S-ACOT- factorization scheme, which has been recently extended to two-loop, or NNLO, accuracy [4]. Though the NNLO matrix elements are still unknown for some important processes, such as the inclusive jet production in pp=pp collisions, it is important to use NNLO approximations, where available. CTEQ has developed PDFs for general-purpose computations and estimates of PDF-driven uncertainties over many years [5]. The most recent PDFs in this class, named CT10 and CT10W, were published in 2010 [6]. We now present a new family of CTEQ parton distributions, named CT10 NNLO. There are several reasons for publishing them. First, the CT10 NNLO global analysis is based on the NNLO approximation of perturbative QCD, whereas the CT10 and earlier analyses were based on NLO. Second, benchmarking of NLO jet cross sections [7]and DIS cross sections was performed to quantify theoretical uncertainties, and an in-depth study of the treatment of correlated experimental errors has been completed. Third, selection of experimental data sets has been revisited. The new NNLO PDFs are closely related to both CT10 and CT10W NLO PDFs and can be matched to either of two NLO PDF sets when comparing the NLO and NNLO cross sections. In all three cases, only data from pre-LHC experiments were used in the global fit. The same values of the QCD coupling and heavyquark masses as in CT10 NLO were assumed.

THE VERTICAL X-SHAPED STRUCTURE IN THE MILKY WAY: EVIDENCE FROM A SIMPLE BOXY BULGE MODEL
A vertical X-shaped structure in the Galactic bulge was recently reported. Here, we present evidence of a similar X-shaped structure in the Shen et al. 2010 bar/boxy bulge model that simultaneously matches the stellar kinematics successfully. The X-shaped structure is found in the central region of our bar/boxy bulge model and is qualitatively consistent with the observed one in many aspects. End-to-end separations of the X-shaped structure in the radial and vertical directions are roughly 3 kpc and 1.8 kpc, respectively. The X-shaped structure contains about 7% of light in the boxy bulge region, but it is significant enough to be identified in observations. An X-shaped structure naturally arises in the formation of bar/boxy bulges and is mainly associated with orbits trapped around the vertically extended x{sub 1} family. Like the bar in our model, the X-shaped structure tilts away from the Sun-Galactic center line by 20 Degree-Sign . The X-shaped structure becomes increasingly symmetric about the disk plane, so the observed symmetry may indicate that it formed at least a few billion years ago. The existence of the vertical X-shaped structure suggests that the formation of the Milky Way bulge is shaped mainly by internal disk dynamical instabilities.
