A light-cone QCD inspired effective Hamiltonian model for pseudoscalar and scalar mesons
Considering the one-gluon exchange interaction and phenomenological quark confinement potential, an improved light-cone effective Hamiltonian for mesons and the corresponding radial mass eigen equations in angular momentum representation is obtained. Solving the J = 0 eigen equations numerically and using a set of adjustable parameters, the obtained solutions for ground states and radial excited states can simultaneously describe both pseudoscalar and scalar flavour-off-diagonal mesons. Some radial excited states are also predicted and wait for experimental test. More results for the vector and axial vector mesons are expected.

K− Nucleus Elastic Scattering and Momentum-Dependent Optical Potentials
The K− nucleus differential elastic scattering cross section for 12C and 40Ca at is calculated with three momentum-dependent optical potential models, which are density-dependent, relativistic mean field, and hybrid model, respectively. It is found that the forms of momentum-dependent optical potential models proposed by us are reasonable and gain success in the calculations and the momentum-dependent hybrid model is the best model for the K− nucleus elastic scattering.

Determining Nuclear Form factor for Detection of Dark Matter in Relativistic Mean Field Theory
In this work, we derive the nuclear form factor for the spin-independent collision between the WIMPs and nucleus in terms of the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory. Comparison with the traditional form factors which are commonly used in literature is given and it is found that our results are slightly above that of the 2PF model by 4% to 8%, but deviate from the Helm form factor by 15% to 25% for the whole recoil energy spectrum of 0 ~ 100 keV. Moreover, taking Xe and Ge as examples, we show the dependence of the form factor on the recoil energy.

Finite volume effect of baryons in strange hadronic matter
The finite volume effect of baryons in strange hadronic mai;ter (SHM) is studied within the framework of relativistic mean-field theory. As this effect is concerned, the saturation density of SHM turns lower, and the binding energy per baryon decreases. Its influence to the compression modulus of SHM is also discussed.

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.

Petrov type I condition and dual fluid dynamics
A bstractRecently Lysov and Strominger [arXiv:1104.5502] showed that imposing Petrov type I condition on a (p + 1)-dimensional timelike hypersurface embedded in a (p + 2)-dimensional vacuum Einstein gravity reduces the degrees of freedom in the extrinsic curvature of the hypersurface to that of a fluid on the hypersurface, and that the leading-order Einstein constraint equations in terms of the mean curvature of the embedding give the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations of the dual fluid. In this paper we show that the non-relativistic fluid dual to vacuum Einstein gravity does not satisfy the Petrov type I condition at next order, unless additional constraint such as the irrotational condition is added. In addition, we show that this procedure can be inversed to derive the non-relativistic hydrodynamics with higher order corrections through imposing the Petrov type I condition, and that some second order transport coefficients can be extracted, but the dual “Petrov type I fluid” does not match the dual fluid constructed from the geometry of vacuum Einstein gravity in the non-relativistic limit. We discuss the procedure both on the finite cutoff surface via the non-relativistic hydrodynamic expansion and on the highly accelerated surface via the near horizon expansion.

The X‐ray transient 080109 in NGC 2770: an X‐ray flash associated with a normal core‐collapse supernova
Although it is generally thought that long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) are associated with core-collapse supernovae (SNe), so far only four pairs of GRBs and SNe with firmly established connection have been found. All the four GRB-SNe belong to special class of Type Ic – called the broad-lined SNe indicative of a large explosion energy, suggesting that only a small fraction of SNe Ibc have GRBs associated with them. This scheme has been refreshed by the discovery of a bright X-ray transient in NGC 2770 on 2008 January 9, which was followed by a rather normal Type Ib SN 2008D. In this paper, I argue that the transient 080109 is an X-ray flash (XRF, the soft version of a GRB) because of the following evidence. (1) The transient cannot be interpreted as a SN shock breakout event. (2) The GRB X-ray flare interpretation is not supported by the high-energy observation. I then show that XRF 080109 satisfies the well-known relation between the isotropic-equivalent energy and the peak spectral energy for LGRBs, which highly strengthens the XRF interpretation. Finally, I point out that the peak spectral energy of XRF 080109 and the maximum bolometric luminosity of SN 2008D agree with the E γ, peak–LSN,max relationship of Li, strengthening the validity of the relationship. I speculate that events like XRF 080109 may occur at a rate comparable to SNe Ibc, and a soft X-ray telescope devoted to surveying for nearby X-ray flares will be very fruitful in discovering them.

STRANGENESS PRODUCTION IN RELATIVISTIC NUCLEAR COLLISIONS
Quark matter produced in relativistic nuclear collisions is thermally equilibrated. A phenomenological model is used to calculate the yield of strange quark pairs at AGS, SPS and RHIC, which is comparable to the results from the experiments. In addition, analysis with this model indicates that there is a signal of phase transition where the cms energy is approximately 7.5 GeV.

Experimental investigation of bubble occurrence and locality distribution of bubble detectors bombarded with high-energy helium ions
Abstract Large-sized bubble detectors with microscopic droplets of superheated liquids of dichlorodifluoromethane (Freon-12), dichlorotetrafluoroethane (Freon-114), tetrafluoroethane (Freon-134a), and mixture of Freon-12 and Freon-114, respectively, were irradiated with 150 MeV/amu helium ions at the HIMAC accelerator in NIRS, Chiba, Japan. Distributions of bubbles produced by the helium ions have been studied in each type of the detectors. The origin of the bubbles has been investigated. The detection efficiency of each type of the bubble detectors for helium ions with respect to the energy of the ions has been obtained. The phenomenon of bubble occurrence and its possible applications to the determination of He intensity from accelerators, research of track formation mechanism, energy loss straggling and neutron detection in the space and at higher altitude are discussed.
