The Pure Leptonic Decays of $D_s$ Meson and Their Radiative Corrections
The radiative corrections to the pure leptonic decay $D_s{\longrightarrow} {\ell}{{\nu}}_{\ell}$ up-to one-loop order is presented. We find the virtual photon loop corrections to $D_s{\longrightarrow} {\tau}{{\nu}}_{\tau}$ is negative and the corresponding branching ratio is larger than $3.51\times 10^{-3}$. Considering the possible experimental resolutions, our prediction of the radiative decay $D_s{\longrightarrow} {\tau}{{\nu}}_{\tau}\gamma$ is not so large as others, and the best channel to determine the $V_{cs}$ or $f_{D_s}$ is $D_s{\longrightarrow} {\mu}{{\nu}}_{\mu}{\gamma}$. How to cancel the infrared divergences appearing in the loop calculations, and the radiative decay $D_s{\longrightarrow} {\ell}{{\nu}}_{\ell}{\gamma}$ is shown precisely. It is emphasized that the radiative decay may be separated properly and may compare with measurements directly as long as the theoretical `softness' of the photon corresponds to the experimental resolutions.

Lepton-number violating decays of heavy mesons
The experimental observation of lepton-number violating processes would unambiguously indicate the Majorana nature of neutrinos. Various ΔL=2 processes for pseudoscalar meson M1 decays to another pseudoscalar meson M2 and two charged leptons ℓ1, ℓ2 ($M_{1}^{+}\rightarrow \ell_{1}^{+}\ell_{2}^{+}M_{2}^{-}$) have been studied extensively. Extending the existing literature on the studies of these kinds of process, we consider the rare decays of heavy mesons to a vector meson or a pseudoscalar meson. These processes have not been searched for experimentally, while they may have sizable decay rates. We calculate their branching fractions and propose to search for these decay modes in the current and forthcoming experiments, in particular at the LHCb.

Decay constants of heavy vector mesons in relativistic Bethe-Salpeter method
Abstract In a previous Letter, we computed the decay constants of heavy pseudoscalar mesons in the framework of relativistic (instantaneous) Bethe–Salpeter method (full 0 − Salpeter equation), in this Letter, we solve the full 1 − Salpeter equation and compute the leptonic decay constants of heavy–heavy and heavy–light vector mesons. The theoretical estimate of mass spectra of these heavy–heavy and heavy–light vector mesons are also presented. Our results for the decay constants and mass spectra include the complete relativistic contributions. We find F D s ∗ ≈ 375 ± 24 , F D ∗ ≈ 340 ± 23 ( D ∗ 0 , D ∗ ± ) , F B s ∗ ≈ 272 ± 20 , F B ∗ ≈ 238 ± 18 ( B ∗ 0 , B ∗ ± ) , F B c ∗ ≈ 418 ± 24 , F J / Ψ ≈ 459 ± 28 , F Ψ ( 2 S ) ≈ 364 ± 24 , F ϒ ≈ 498 ± 20 and F ϒ ( 2 S ) ≈ 366 ± 27 MeV .

Semileptonic Production of Scalar and Tensor p-Wave Charmed Mesons
With the same constituents of quark and antiquark, the p-wave state has a higher mass than the corresponding s-wave state, but the relativistic corrections are much larger in the processes of which p-wave mesons are involved. Considering this, the relativistic Bethe?Salpeter method is applied to estimate the branching fractions of semileptonic decays B(s) ? D*(sJ)l? (J = 0,2). Our predictions are Br[???(2317)l?]?=?0.50%, Br[???(2573)l?]?=?0.40%, Br[B????(2400)l?]?=?0.79%, Br[B????(2460)l?]?=?0.28%, Br[???(2400)l?]?=?0.58% and Br[???(2460)l?]?=?0.27%. .

The Layer Phase in the Non-isotropic SU(3) Gauge Model at Finite Temperature
The phase structure of a non-isotropic non-Abelian SU(3) lattice gauge model at finite temperature is investigated to the third order in the variational-cumulant expansion (VCE) approach. The layer phase exists in this model in the cases of dimensions D=4, D=5 (d=D-1).

Implementation of a DC Bump at the Storage Ring Injection Straight Section
The NSLS II beam injection works with a DC septum, a pulsed septum and four fast kicker magnets. The kicker power supplies each produce a two revolution period pulsed field, 5.2 {micro}s half sine waveform, using {approx}5kA drive voltage. The corresponding close orbit bump amplitude is {approx}15mm. It is desired that the bump is transparent to the users for top-off injection. However, high voltage and short pulse power supplies have challenges to maintain pulse-to-pulse stability and magnet-to-magnet reproducibility. To minimize these issues, we propose implementing a DC local bump on top of the fast bump to reduce the fast kicker strength by a factor of 2/3. This bump uses two storage ring corrector magnets plus one additional magnet at the septum to create a local bump. Additionally, these magnets could provide a DC bump to simulate the septum position effects on the store beam lifetime. This paper presents the detail design of this DC injection bump and related beam dynamics.

A study on the relations between the topological parameter and entanglement
Abstract In this Letter, some relations between the topological parameter d and concurrences of the projective entangled states have been presented. It is shown that for the case with d = n , all the projective entangled states of two n -dimensional quantum systems are the maximally entangled states (i.e. C = 1 ). And for another case with d ≠ n , C both approach 0 when d → + ∞ for n = 2 and 3. Then we study the thermal entanglement and the entanglement sudden death (ESD) for a kind of Yang–Baxter Hamiltonian. It is found that the parameter d influences not only the critical temperature T c but also the maximum entanglement value that the system can arrive at. And we also find that the parameter d has a great influence on the ESD.

Quantum Phase Transition Like Phenomenon in a Two-Qubit Yang-Baxter System
The quantum phase transition for the “q-deformed” Yang-baxter Hamiltonian has been discussed. The calculation shows when the deformed parameter q approaches 1, there exists a quantum critical point for spectral parameter θ. In this Yang-Baxter system, quantum entanglement and the geometric phase can characterize quantum phase transition.

Non-photonic electron–hadron correlations at STAR
We present STAR's measurements of azimuthal correlations between non-photonic electrons and charged hadrons in p+p, Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at GeV. In p+p collisions, from the non-photonic e?h correlation we have extracted the relative B meson semi-leptonic decay contributions to non-photonic electrons up to electron pt ~ 9 GeV/c. In central Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions where a dense medium is created, we find that the e?h correlation on the away side of the trigger non-photonic electron has been modified in comparison with the expectation from PYTHIA simulations.

Linear optics measurements and corrections using an AC dipole in RHIC
We report recent experimental results on linear optics measurements and corrections using ac dipole. In RHIC 2009 run, the concept of the SVD correction algorithm is tested at injection energy for both identifying the artificial gradient errors and correcting it using the trim quadrupoles. The measured phase beatings were reduced by 30% and 40% respectively for two dedicated experiments. In RHIC 2010 run, ac dipole is used to measure {beta}* and chromatic {beta} function. For the 0.65m {beta}* lattice, we observed a factor of 3 discrepancy between model and measured chromatic {beta} function in the yellow ring.
