Study of the single neutral top pion production process at {gamma}{gamma} collider
{gamma}{gamma}{yields}{pi}{sub t}{sup 0} is the major production mechanism of the neutral top pion at the linear colliders. In this paper, we calculate the cross section of the process {gamma}{gamma}{yields}{pi}{sub t}{sup 0} and discuss the potential to observe the neutral top pion via its various decay modes at the planned International Linear Collider. The study shows that, among the various neutral top-pion production processes at the linear colliders, the cross section of {gamma}{gamma}{yields}{pi}{sub t}{sup 0} is the largest one which can reach the level of 10{sup 1}-10{sup 2} fb. Because of the existence of the tree-level flavor-changing coupling {pi}{sub t}{sup 0}tc, {gamma}{gamma}{yields}{pi}{sub t}{sup 0}{yields}tc can provide enough number of typical signals to identify the neutral top pion with the clean SM background. Therefore, the process {gamma}{gamma}{yields}{pi}{sub t}{sup 0} plays an important role in searching for the neutral top pion and tests the TC2 model.

Phase transition of finite size quark droplets with isospin chemical potential in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model
Making use of the Nambu\char21{}Jona-Lasinio model and the multiple reflection expansion approximation, we study the phase transition of the finite size droplet with $u$ and $d$ quarks. We find that the dynamical masses of $u$, $d$ quarks are different, and the chiral symmetry can be restored at different critical radii for $u$, $d$ quarks. It provides a clue to understanding the effective nucleon mass splitting in nuclear matter. Meanwhile, it shows that the maximal isospin chemical potential at zero temperature is much smaller than the mass of pion in free space.

The Flavor-changing bottom and anti-strange quark production in the littlest Higgs model with T parity at the ILC
In the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (LHT) the mirror quarks induce the special flavor structures and some new flavor-changing (FC) couplings which could greatly enhance the production rates of the FC processes. We in this paper study some bottom and anti-strange production processes in the LHT model at the International Linear Collider (ILC), i.e., $e^+e^-\to b\bar{s}$ and $\gamma\gamma\to b\bar{s}$. The results show that the production rates of these processes are sizeable for the favorable values of the parameters. Therefore, it is quite possible to test the LHT model or make some constrains on the relevant parameters of the LHT through the detection of these processes at the ILC.

Detecting Toppion via a Flavor-Changing Single Top QuarkProduction Process*
In the framework of topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) theory, we study a flavor changing single top quarkproduction process pp(pp) →Ⅱ0t → tc(tc) at upgraded Tevatron and LHC. The results show that with the flavor changingcoupling of neutral toppion to top and charm quark, toppion provides a large te-channel resonance effect. The signal ofsingle top production could be detected at LHC. Otherwise, the narrow peak in the invariant mass distribution could beclearly detected both at upgraded Tevatron and LHC. Therefore, such single top production process provides a uniqueway to test TC2 model via the detection of tc-channel neutral toppion contribution.

Rare decays of the top quark in the one generation technicolor model.
The decays [ital t][r arrow][ital cV] ([ital V]=[gamma],[ital g],[ital Z]) and [ital t][r arrow][ital cP][sup 0] induced through loop processes are calculated in the Farhi-Susskind one family technicolor (TC) model. We find that these new contributions can enhance the SM branching fractions by as much as 3--4 orders of magnitude, i.e., [ital B]([ital t][r arrow][ital cg])[similar to]10[sup [minus]6], [ital B]([ital t][r arrow][ital cZ])[similar to]10[sup [minus]7], [ital B]([ital t][r arrow][ital c][gamma])[similar to]10[sup [minus]8], and [ital B]([ital t][r arrow][ital cP][sup 0])[similar to]10[sup [minus]9], for the favorable values of the parameters. It might provide a unique window to detect the virtual effects of pseudo Goldstone bosons in TC theory.

Nuclear Shell Structure Evolution Theory
The Self-similar-structure shell model (SSM) comes from the evolution of the conventional shell model (SM) and keeps the energy level of SM single particle harmonic oscillation motion. In SM, single particle motion is the positive harmonic oscillation and in SSM, the single particle motion is the negative harmonic oscillation. In this paper a nuclear evolution equation (NEE) is proposed. NEE describes the nuclear evolution process from gas state to liquid state and reveals the relations among SM, SSM and liquid drop model (DM). Based upon SSM and NEE theory, we propose the solution to long-standing problem of nuclear shell model single particle spin-orbit interaction energy . We demonstrate that the single particle motion in normal nuclear ground state is the negative harmonic oscillation of SSM[1][2][3][4] 
Key words: negative harmonic oscillation, nuclear evolution equation, self-similar shell model

Charmonium production from hot hadronic matter
Abstract Charmonium production from D D annihilation in the hadron gas formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is studied. With initial conditions taken from the HIJING parton model, we have estimated the number of J / ψ produced from an expanding hadron gas, using the J / ψ absorption and production cross sections obtained from either an effective Lagrangian or the quark-exchange model. We find that J / ψ production is negligible in heavy-ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) but may be important at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), where more charm mesons are produced. Similar results are obtained for ψ ′ production from the hadron gas at RHIC and LHC.

Discovering extra Higgs boson via pair production of the SM-like Higgs bosons
In the standard model (SM), pair production rate of Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is quite low. One usually think that it is extremely important for the measurement of triple Higgs coupling at the high luminosity LHC. In this paper, we propose to search for the extra Higgs boson (denoted as $S$) utilizing pair production of the SM-like Higgs boson ($H$) which was discovered in July, 2012.The pair production of $H$ can be huge due to the resonant production of heavy scalar $S$, namely $PP \rightarrow S \rightarrow HH$. The couplings of $H$ with weak gauge boson are similar to ones in the SM and it implies that the couplings between $S$ and gauge bosons are likely suppressed. Provided that $S$ is heavy enough, the decay into weak gauge bosons may not be the dominant modes. Instead $S$ can decay into a pair of $H$ and offer the promising channel to discover it. In this paper, we studied the 5 promising decay modes of $H$, i.e. $b\bar{b}$, $WW^*$, $ZZ^*$, $\gamma\gamma$ and $\tau^+\tau^-$, and simulated the signals and backgrounds for the 15 combination modes for $HH$ at the LHC with $\sqrt{s}= 14$ TeV and integrated luminosity $\mathcal{L}=1000fb^{-1}$. We found that with the help of suitable selection rules, very good signal to background ratio $S/B$ can be archived in many decay channels, for example $b\bar b+ (WW^*, ZZ^*, \gamma\gamma, \tau^+\tau^-)$, $WW^*+(WW^*, ZZ^*, \gamma\gamma, \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\tau^+\tau^- +(\gamma\gamma, \tau^+\tau^-)$. For the detailed results please refer to Table \ref{tab:discovery} in the text. On the contrary, $b\bar b b\bar b$ mode is less important due to the huge QCD background. However if one has excellent control on light jet mis-tagging, the $b\bar b b\bar b$ mode can be promising to discover the extra Higgs boson due to its the largest branching ratio compared to other modes.

The precision measurement of the neutron spin structure function using polarized helium-3 target
Using a 48.6 GeV polarized electron beam scattering off a polarized {sup 3}He target at Stanford Linear Accelerator Centre (SLAC), they measured the neutron spin structure function g{sub 1}{sup n} over kinematic(x) ranging 0.014 < x <0.7 and 1 < Q{sup 2} < 17GeV{sup 2}. The measurement gave the integral result over the neutron spin structure function {integral}{sub 0.014}{sup 0.7} g{sub 1}{sup n}(x)dx = -0.036 {+-} 0.004(stat) {+-} 0.005(syst) at an average Q{sup 2} = 5GeV{sup 2}. Along with the proton results from SLAC E143 experiment (0.03 < x) and SMC experiment (0.014 < x < 0.03), they find the Bjorken sum rule appears to be largely saturated by the data integrated down to x of 0.014. However, they observe relatively large values for g{sub 1}{sup n} at low x. The result calls into question the usual methods (Regge theory) for extrapolating to x = 0 to find the full neutron integral {integral}{sub 0}{sup t} g{sub 1}{sup n}(x) dx, needed for testing the Quark-Parton Model (QMP).

Two particle correlations in jets and triggered distributions in hot and cold matter
The modification of the correlation between high p T particles produced in association with trigger particles from jets emanating from a heavy-ion collision is shown to be a valuable probe of the matter produced in such collisions. While the minimal modification on the same side as the trigger is consistent with the picture and parameters of partonic energy loss, the possible observation of Cherenkov like correlations on the away side leads to the possibility of the existence of composite structures in the excited matter.
