Reconstruction of new holographic scalar field models of dark energy in Brans-Dicke universe
Motivated by the work: K. Karami and J. Fehri, Phys. Lett. B684, 61 (2010) and A. Sheykhi, Phys. Lett. B681, 205 (2009), we generalize their work to the new holographic dark energy model with in the framework of Brans–Dicke cosmology. Concretely, we study the correspondence between the quintessence, tachyon, K-essence, dilaton scalar field and Chaplygin gas model with the new holographic dark energy model in the non-flat Brans–Dicke universe. Furthermore, we reconstruct the potentials and dynamics for these models. By analysis we can show that for new holographic quintessence and Chaplygin gas models, if the related parameters to the potentials satisfy some constraints, the accelerated expansion can be achieved in Brans–Dicke cosmology. In particular, the counterparts of fields and potentials in general relativity can describe accelerated expansion of the universe. It is worth stressing that not only can we give some new results in the framework of Brans–Dicke cosmology, but also the previous results of the new holographic dark energy in Einstein gravity can be included as special cases given by us.

Evolution of Holographic Dark Energy in Interacting Modified Chaplygin Gas Model
We investigate the modified Chaplygin gas (MCG) with interaction between holographic dark energy proposed by Li and dark matter. In this model, evolution of the universe is described in detail, which is from deceleration to acceleration. Specifically, the evolutions of related cosmological quantities such as density parameter, the equation of state of holographic dark energy, deceleration parameter and transition redshift are discussed. Moreover, we also give their present values which are consistent with the lately observations. Furthermore, the results given by us show such a model can accommodate a transition of the dark energy from a normal state wX > – 1 to wX < – 1 phantom regimes.

THE VARIABLE GENERALIZED CHAPLYGIN GAS MODEL WITH INTERACTION
In this paper a variable generalized Chaplygin gas (VGCG) proposal for unification of dark matter and dark energy is considered, in which dark energy interacts with dark matter. The equation of state of the VGCG is given by p = -A0a-n/ρα, where a is the scale factor. By calculations some cosmological quantities such as density parameters of baryons, dark matter and dark energy as well as the deceleration parameter are all obtained. Furthermore, the transition from deceleration to acceleration is described and the interaction between dark energy and dark matter is considered in this model. We find the behavior of VGCG is similar to dust-like matter at early times and will be quintessence or phantom at late stage. In addition the evolution trajectory of the VGCG model in the statefinder parameter s-r plane is plotted and the discrimination between this scenario and the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) model is illustrated.

More on QCD ghost dark energy
The difference between the vacuum energy of quantum fields in Minkowski space and in a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe might be related to the observed dark energy. The vacuum energy of the Veneziano ghost field introduced to solve the U(1)(A) problem in QCD is of the form H + O(H-2). Based on this, we study the dynamical evolution of a phenomenological dark energy model whose energy density is of the form alpha H + beta H-2. In this model, the universe approaches a de Sitter phase at late times. We fit the model with current observational data, including SnIa, BAO, CMB, BBN, the Hubble parameter, and the growth rate of matter perturbation. It shows that the universe begins to accelerate at redshift z similar to 0.75, and this model is consistent with current data. In particular, this model fits the data of the growth factor well as the Lambda CDM model.

Constraints of energy conditions and DK instability criterion on f(R, Lm) gravity models
Some properties of f(R, Lm) gravity are studied in this paper. Concretely, the energy conditions and the Dolgov–Kawasaki (DK) instability criterion in f(R, Lm) gravity are obtained, which are quite general and can degenerate to the ones in General Relativity (GR) and pure f(R) gravity with non-coupling and non-minimal coupling as well as in [J. Wang and K. Liao, Class. Quantum Grav. 29, 215016 (2012)] as special cases. Furthermore, in order to get some insight on the meaning of the energy conditions and the DK instability criterion, we apply them to the concrete type of f(R, Lm) gravity models and the corresponding constraints on the models are given.

Holographic p-wave superfluid
In the probe limit, we numerically construct a holographic p-wave superfluid model in the 4D and 5D AdS black holes coupled to a Maxwell-complex vector field. 
We find that, for the condensate with the fixed superfluid velocity, the results are similar to the s-wave cases in both 4D and 5D spacetimes. In particular, "The Cave of Winds" and the phase transition always being the second order take place in the 5D case. Moreover, we find the second-first order translating point $\frac{S_y}{\mu}$ increases with the mass squared. Furthermore, for the supercurrent with the fixed temperature, the results agree with the GL prediction near the critical temperature. In addition, this complex vector superfluid model is still a generalization of the SU(2) superfluid model, and also provides a holographic realization of the $He_3$ superfluid system.

RAPIDITY DEPENDENCE OF CHARGE FLUCTUATIONS AND CORRELATIONS IN HADRONIC AND NUCLEAR COLLISIONS
Size and position of rapidity window dependence of charge fluctuations and correlations are studied by PYTHIA and RQMD models for hadron–hadron and nucleus–nucleus collisions respectively. The results show that all the measures for charge fluctuations and correlations depend on the size of central rapidity windows and most of them depend on the position of the rapidity windows, which is not expected. Only charge balance function in hadron–hadron collisions is independent of the position of rapidity window, i.e. boost-invariant, in consistent with corresponding experimental data, while charge fluctuations measured by D(Q) is not boost-invariant in contrast to the experimental data. The measures for three kind of charge correlations (R++, R--, R+-) show a good account for the behavior of charge correlations and global charge conservation in longitudinal phase space in both PYTHIA and RQMD.

Two-particle azimuthal angle correlations and azimuthal charge balance function in relativistic heavy ion collisions
The two-particle azimuthal angle correlation (TPAC) and azimuthal charge balance function (ACBF) are used to study the anisotropic expansion in relativistic heavy ion collisions. It is demonstrated by the relativistic quantum molecular dynamics (RQMD) model and a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model that the small-angle correlation in TPAC indeed presents anisotropic expansion, and the large-angle (or back-to-back) correlation is mainly due to global momentum conservations. The AMPT model reproduces the observed TPAC, but the RQMD model fails to reproduce the strong correlations in both small and large azimuthal angles. The width of ACBF from RQMD and AMPT models decreases from peripheral to central collisions, consistent with experimental data, but in contrast to the expectation from thermal model calculations. The ACBF is insensitive to anisotropic expansion. It is a probe for the mechanism of hadronization, similar to the charge balance function in rapidity.

The study of non-collectivity by the forward–backward multiplicity correlation function
We propose a forward–backward multiplicity correlation function CNFB, which is experimentally accessible, to measure the non-collectivity contribution. It is found that the function is sensitive to both the jet contribution and small number statistics. We point out that the effect of the latter is also involved in the previous studies of the forward–backward elliptic correlation function but was misinterpreted as a contribution from jets. We study the CNFB in Au+Au collision at GeV with a multiphase transport model (AMPT). The result shows that the estimated jet contribution is much smaller than in the previous study due to the finite number statistics which has not been noticed before. The connection between this study and the forward–backward elliptic correlation function is also discussed.

On the random cascading model study of anomalous scaling in multiparticle production with continuously diminishing scale
The anomalous scaling of factorial moments with continuously diminishing scale is studied using a random cascading model. It is shown that the model currently used have the property of anomalous scaling only for descrete values of elementary cell size. A revised model is proposed which can give good scaling property also for continuously varying scale. It turns out that the strip integral has good scaling property provided the integral regions are chosen correctly, and that this property is insensitive to the concrete way of self-similar subdivision of phase space in the models.

Critical behavior of hadronic fluctuations and the effect of final-state randomization
The critical behaviors of the quark-hadron phase transition are explored by use of the Ising model adapted for hadron production. Various measures involving the fluctuations of the produced hadrons in bins of various sizes are examined with the aim of quantifying the clustering properties that are universal features of all critical phenomena. Some of the measures involve wavelet analysis. Two of the measures are found to exhibit the canonical power-law behavior near the critical temperature. The effect of final-state randomization is studied by requiring the produced particles to take random walks in the transverse plane. It is demonstrated that for the measures considered the dependence on the randomization process is weak. Since temperature is not a directly measurable variable, the average hadronic density of a portion of each event is used as the control variable that is measurable. The event-to-event fluctuations are taken into account in the study of the dependence of the chosen measures on that control variable. Phenomenologically verifiable critical behaviors are found and are proposed for use as a signature of quark-hadron phase transition in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
