Azimuthal and single spin asymmetry in deep-inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering
The collinear expansion technique is generalized to thefactorization of unintegrated parton distributions and other higher twistparton correlations from the corresponding collinear hard parts thatinvolve multiple parton final state interaction. Such a generalizedfactorization provides a consistent approach to the calculation ofinclusive and semi-inclusive cross sections of deep-inelasticlepton-nucleon scattering. As an example, the azimuthal asymmetry iscalculated to the order of 1/Q in semi-inclusive deeply inelasticlepton-nucleon scattering with transversely polarized target. Anon-vanishing single-spin asymmetry in the "triggered inclusive process"is predicted to be 1/Q suppressed with a part of the coefficient relatedto a moment of the Sivers function.

Probe initial parton density and formation time via jet quenching
Medium modification of jet fragmentation function due to multiple scattering and induced gluon radiation leads directly to jet quenching or suppression of leading particle distribution from jet fragmentation. One can extract an effective total parton energy loss which can be related to the total transverse momentum broadening. For an expanding medium, both are shown to be sensitive to the initial parton density and formation time. Therefore, one can extract the initial parton density and formation time from simultaneous measurements of parton energy loss and transverse momentum broadening. Implication of the recent experimental data on effects of detailed balance in parton energy loss is also discussed.

Relics of Minijets amid Anisotropic Flows in High-energy Heavy-ion Collisions
Two dimensional low-$p_T$ dihadron correlations in azimuthal angle $\phi$ and pseudo-rapidity $\eta$ in high-energy heavy-ion collisions are investigated within both the HIJING Monte Carlo model and an event-by-event (3+1)D ideal hydrodynamic model. Without final-state interaction and collective expansion, dihadron correlations from HIJING simulations have a typical structure from minijets that contains a near-side two-dimensional peak and an away-side ridge along the $\eta$-direction. In contrast, event-by-event (3+1)D ideal hydrodynamic simulations with fluctuating initial conditions from the HIJING+AMPT model produce a strong dihadron correlation that has an away-side as well as a near-side ridge. Relics of intrinsic dihadron correlation from minijets in the initial conditions still remain as superimposed on the two ridges. By varying initial conditions from HIJING+AMPT, we study effects of minijets, non-vanishing initial flow and longitudinal fluctuation on the final state dihadron correlations. With a large rapidity gap, one can exclude near-side correlations from minijet relics and dihadron correlations can be described by the superposition of harmonic flows up to the 6th order. When long-range correlations with a large rapidity gap are subtracted from short-range correlations with a small rapidity gap, the remaining near-side dihadron correlations result solely from relics of minijets. Low transverse momentum hadron yields per trigger ($p_T^{\rm trig} <4$ GeV/$c$, $p_T^{\rm asso}<2$ GeV/$c$) in central heavy-ion collisions are significantly enhanced over that in p+p collisions while widths in azimuthal angle remain the same, in qualitative agreement with experimental data.

Berry curvature and four-dimensional monopoles in the relativistic chiral kinetic equation.
We derive a relativistic chiral kinetic equation with manifest Lorentz covariance from Wigner functions of spin-1/2 massless fermions in a constant background electromagnetic field. It contains vorticity terms and a four-dimensional Euclidean Berry monopole which gives an axial anomaly. By integrating out the zeroth component of the 4-momentum p, we reproduce the previous three-dimensional results derived from the Hamiltonian approach, together with the newly derived vorticity terms. The phase space continuity equation has an anomalous source term proportional to the product of electric and magnetic fields (FσρF[over ˜]σρ∼EσBσ). This provides a unified interpretation of the chiral magnetic and vortical effects, chiral anomaly, Berry curvature, and the Berry monopole in the framework of Wigner functions.

Role of multiple minijets in high-energy hadronic reactions.
The multiplicity distributions of charged particles in high-energy hadron collisions including the production of multiple minijets are considered in the framework of the eikonal formalism. Large-multiplicity events at high energies are found to be dominated by the production of many jets with 2{le}{ital P}{sub {ital T}}{le}4 GeV. The contributions from larger-{ital P}{sub {ital T}} minijets become prevailing for high-multiplicity fluctuations in narrow rapidity intervals.

The study of the charged top-pion decay processes
In the framework of top-color assisted technicolor(TC2) theory, we study the four decay processes of charged top-pion, i.e., Π+t → tb, Π+t → cb, Π+t → Wγ, Π+t → WZ, the decay branching ratio of these modes are calculated. The results show that the main decay channels of charged top-pion are the tree level modes: Π+t → tb̄ and Π+t → cb̄. Light Π+t is easier to be detected than heavy one at future coliders. So, the study provides us some useful information to search for charged top-pion.

EXTRA NEUTRAL GAUGE BOSON FROM THE 3-3-1 MODEL AND THE SPIN CORRECTION OF TOP QUARK PAIR PRODUCTION AT THE ILC
In the off-diagonal basis, we explore the effects of extra neutral gauge boson Z' predicted in two versions of SU(3)C × SU(3)L × U(1)X model on the spin configuration of the top quark pair production in the high energy linear e+e- collider (ILC). Our numerical results show that, the cross sections for the suppressed spin configurations can be enhanced with the effects of the Z' boson through the modification of the spin configuration by producing enough top quark pairs to be measured in the future ILC experiments, which provides the way to observe the effects of Z' predicted in the 3-3-1 model and discriminate the various versions of 3-3-1 model.

Study on the temperature dependence of BGO light yield
The temperature dependence of BGO coupled with photomultiplier tube R5610A-01 was studied in the range of −30–30°C. The temperature coefficient of the BGO and R5610A as a whole was tested to be −1.82%/°C. And the temperature coefficient of the gain of the R5610A is −0.44%/°C which was tested in the same situation using a blue LED. Thus the temperature coefficient of BGO’s light yield can be evaluated as −1.38%/°C.

The single t-quark productions via the flavor-changing processes in the topcolor-assisted technicolor model at the hadron colliders
In the framework of topcolor-assisted technicolor(TC2) model, there exist tree-level flavor-changing (FC) couplings which can result in the loop-level FC coupling tcg. Such tcg coupling can contribute significant clues at the forthcoming Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments. In this paper, based on the TC2 model, we study some single tquark production processes involving tcg coupling at the Tevatron and LHC: pp(pp̄) → tq̄(q = u, d, s), tg. We calculate the cross sections of these processes. The results show that the cross sections at the Tevatron are too small to observe the signal, but at the LHC it can reach a few pb. With the high luminosity, the LHC has considerable capability to find the single t-quark signal produced via some FC processes involving coupling tcg. On the other hand, these processes can also provide some valuable information of the coupling tcg with detailed study of the processes and furthermore provide the reliable evidence to test the TC2 model.
