Q2-Dependent Parametrizations of Parton Distribution in the Constituent Quark*
Extracted from-the recent PMRS's distributions, the Q2-dependent parton distribution functions in constituent quarks are obtained, and the consistence of QCD evolutions between the two cases—with and without considering the level of constituent quarks in a free nucleon is discussed.

A New Effect in the QCD Fusion of Nuclear Partons
The parton fusion in nucleus at the leading order of recombination is investigated based on perturbative QCD. We compute various cut diagrams including the nuclear parton fusion, and find that the parton-fusion effects depend on the nuclear QCD structure.

Partonic Structure of the Pomeron in the Modified GLR Equation
The gluon recombination effect in the pomeron is studied by using the modified Gribov–Levin–Ryskin evolution equation. We find that the measured parton distributions in the pomeron can be generated dynamically from a purely gluonic input on assuming a small size for the pomeron.

A twist-4 effect in the parton evolution processes
Recently, a research group reported that they can fit the F2 data well by using the Altarelli-Parisi evolution equation with a valence-like initial gluon distribution, which means that we need not consider the high twist effects in the proton. In this letter, we point out that their valence-like initial gluon distribution is unreasonable for the proton structure function. With the reasonable initial distributions, we find that the high twist corrections to the Altarelli-Parisi evolution equation is necessary.

Bag skin effect for Friedberg-Lee model
Importance of the bag skin effect to determine the parameters of the Friedberg-Lee model is pointed out. The European Muon Collaboration (EMC) effect regarded as a bag skin effect can be used to determine the parameters of this model.

Nuclear Shadowing and Antishadowing in a Unitarized BFKL Equation
The nuclear shadowing and antishadowing effects are explained by a unitarized BFKL equation. The Q2and x-variations of the nuclear parton distributions are detailed based on the level of the unintegrated gluon distribution. In particular, the asymptotical behavior of the unintegrated gluon distribution near the saturation limit in nuclear targets is studied. Our results in the nuclear targets are insensitive to the input distributions if the parameters are fixed by the data of a free proton.

Data driven search in the displaced $ b\overline{b} $ pair channel for a Higgs boson decaying to long-lived neutral particles
A bstractThis article presents a proposal for a new search channel for the Higgs boson decaying to two long-lived neutral particles, each of which decays to $ b\overline{b} $ at a displaced vertex. The decay length considered is such that the decay takes place within the LHC beampipe. We present a new data-driven analysis using jet substructure and properties of the tracks from the highly-displaced vertices. We consider a model with a 125 GeV Higgs boson with a significant branching fraction to decay via this mode, with the long-lived neutral particle having a mass in the range of 15-40 GeV and a decay length commensurate with the beam pipe radius. Such a signal can be readily observed with an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb−1 at 8 TeV at the LHC.
