Quark mass and phase transition for strange matter
We have derived the popularly used mass parametrization formula for light quarks and modified the corresponding formula for strange quarks with the mass-densitydependent model. A simple expression for the critical density of phase transition of strange quark matter at zero temperature is thus found and its value is estimated to be over 6 times the normal nuclear density.

Multi-deformed Configurations and Shape Coexistence for Superheavy Elements ∗
We use the considered axial deformed relativistic mean field theory to perform systematical calculations for Z = 112 and 104 isotopic chains with force parameters NL3, NL-SH and NL-Z2 sets. Three deformed chains (oblate, moderate prolate and super-deformed chain) are found for Z = 112 and 104 isotopic chains. It is found that there is a chain of super-deformed nuclei which can increase the stability of superheavy nuclei in the Z = 112 isotopic chain. Shape coexistence is found for Z = 112,104 isotopic chain and the position is defined. For moderate prolate deformed chains of Z = 112 and 104, there is shell closure at N = 184 for moderate prolate deformed chain. For oblate deformed chain of Z = 112, the shell closure appears around at N = 176. For super-deformed chains of Z = 112 and 104, the position of shell closure have strong parameter dependence. There is shell anomalism for oblate or superdeformed nuclei.

NEW AGEGRAPHIC CHAPLYGIN GAS MODEL WITH VISCOSITY
In this paper, motivated by Ref. 31, we study the so-called new agegraphic Chaplygin gas model with viscosity. Concretely, we establish the correspondence between the interacting new agegraphic dark energy (NADE) and variable generalized Chaplygin gas (VGCG) models in non-flat universe on the basis of reviewing related contents for the NADE and VGCG models. Furthermore, we reconstruct the potential of the new agegraphic scalar field as well as the dynamics of the scalar field according to the evolution of the agegraphic dark energy. Finally, we generalize our study to the case of NADE with viscosity, which includes the case without viscosity (ν = 0) as a special case.

ON KAON CONDENSATION IN DENSE NUCLEAR MATTER
The properties of kaons and antikaons in dense nuclear matter are investigated within the framework of relativistic mean-field theory including delta degrees of freedom. The couplings of kaon-baryon Interactions are determined by the chiral models. We find that the effective masses and energies of kaons and antikaons are reduced on account of the delta resonance in the nuclear matter. This mechanism may enhance the possibility of the existence of kaon condensation.

VACUUM POLARIZATION IN AN ANTI-DE SITTER SPACE AS AN ORIGIN FOR A COSMOLOGICAL CONSTANT IN A BRANE WORLD
We show that the vacuum polarization of quantum fields in an anti-de Sitter space can naturally give rise to a small but nonzero cosmological constant in a brane world living in it. To explain the extremely small ratio of mass density in the cosmological constant to the Planck mass density in our universe (≈10-123) as suggested by cosmological observations, all we need is a four-dimensional brane world (our universe) living in a five-dimensional anti-de Sitter space with a curvature radius r0~10-3cm and a fundamental Planck energy MP~109GeV, and a scalar field with a mass $m\sim r^{-1}_0\sim 10^{-2} {\rm eV}$. Probing gravity down to a scale ~10-3 cm, which is attainable in the near future, will provide a test of the model.

Prototyping the WASA DIRC
The WASA-at-COSY experiment at the Forschungszentrum Jlich provides a nearly 4? detector including a forward spectrometer especially for studies on ? and ?' meson decays in proton-proton collisions. Simulations have shown that an additional detector of internally reflected Cherenkov light in front of the Forward Range Hodoscope improves the particle identification and energy resolution significantly. As a first prototype test has shown the feasibility, a large scale prototype is under construction. The concept and status of the enhanced prototype, optical performance studies and main characteristics of the used photomultiplier tubes and imaging properties of the PMMA optics are described.

Quantum correlation and phase transitions in a two-dimensional doubly decorated Ising-Heisenberg model
We investigate the pairwise quantum correlation, characterized by quantum entanglement (QE) and quantum discord (QD), of a two-dimensional Ising-Heisenberg model on a planar doubly decorated lattice. At zero temperature, the concurrence (a measurement of pairwise entanglement) and the QD are related to the correlation function qxx and the staggered magnetization δSz, respectively, and both of them indicate the quantum phase transition (QPT) of the system. However, in a finite-temperature phase transition, all the pairwise entanglement vanishes thus it fails to detect the critical temperature TC, while the derivative of QD diverges at TC. This shows clearly that QD can capture the signal of phase transition in a separable state, thus it has a broader scope of application than QE in detecting phase transitions.

Magnetic field effect on the phase transition in AdS soliton spacetime
We investigate the scalar perturbations in an anti-de Sitter soliton background coupled to a Maxwell field via marginally stable modes. In the probe limit, we study the magnetic field effect on the holographic insulator/superconductor phase transition numerically and analytically. The condensate will be localized in a finite circular region for any finite constant magnetic field. Near the critical point, we find that there exists a simple relation among the critical chemical potential, magnetic field, the charge, and mass of the scalar field. This relation indicates that the presence of the magnetic field causes the transition from insulator to superconductor to be difficult.

A curve-based material recognition method in MeV dual-energy X-ray imaging system
High-energy dual-energy X-ray digital radiography imaging is mainly used in the material recognition of cargo inspection. We introduce the development history and principle of the technology and describe the data process flow of our system. The system corrects original data to get a dual-energy transparence image. Material categories of all points in the image are identified by the classification curve, which is related to the X-ray energy spectrum. For the calibration of classification curve, our strategy involves a basic curve calibration and a real-time correction devoted to enhancing the classification accuracy. Image segmentation and denoising methods are applied to smooth the image. The image contains more information after colorization. Some results show that our methods achieve the desired effect.
