First law of thermodynamics in IR modified Horava-Lifshitz gravity
We study the first law of thermodynamics in IR modified Horava-Lifshitz spacetime. Based on the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, we obtain the integral formula and the differential formula of the first law of thermodynamics for the Kehagias-Sfetsos black hole by treating {omega} as a new state parameter and redefining a mass that is just equal to M{sub ADM} obtained by Myung [32] if we take {alpha}=3{pi}/8.

Particle acceleration on the background of the Kerr―Taub―NUT spacetime
Abstract We study the collision of two particles with the different rest masses moving in the equatorial plane of a Kerr–Taub–NUT spacetime and get the center-of-mass (CM) energy for the particles. We find that the CM energy depends not only on the rotation parameter, a , but also on the NUT charge of the Kerr–Taub–NUT spacetime, n . Especially, for the extremal Kerr–Taub–NUT spacetime, an unlimited CM energy can be approached if the parameter a is in the range [ 1 , 2 ] , which is different from that of the Kerr and Kerr–Newman black holes.

Rotating charged black hole with Weyl corrections
We present firstly a four-dimensional spherical symmetric black hole with small Weyl corrections and find that with increasing Weyl corrections the region of the event horizon existence for the black hole in the parameter space increases for the negative Weyl coupling parameter and decreases for the positive one. Moreover, we also obtain a rotating charged black hole with weak Weyl corrections by the method of complex coordinate transformation. Our results show that the sign of Weyl coupling parameter $\alpha$ yields the different spatial topology of the event horizons for the black hole with its parameters lied in some special regions in the parameter space. We also analyze the dependence of the ergosphere on the Weyl coupling parameter $\alpha$ and find that with the increase of the Weyl corrections the ergosphere in the equatorial plane becomes thick for a black hole with $\alpha>0$, but becomes thin in the case with $\alpha<0$, which means that the energy extraction become easier in the background of a black hole with the positive Weyl coupling parameter, but more difficult in the background of a black hole with the negative one.

Dirac quasinormal modes of the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger dilaton black-hole spacetime
Adopting the P?schl?Teller potential approximation, the quasinormal frequencies of the massless Dirac fields are evaluated in the Garfinkle?Horowitz?Strominger dilaton black-hole spacetime. We find that the real parts of the quasinormal frequencies increase as the orbital angular momentum k or a increases, where a is a parameter related to the dilaton field. The magnitude of imaginary parts decreases with k for the fixed a and overtone number n, while for fixed k and n, it is not a monotonic function of a and has a maximum at a point near a = 1.4?1.6, where the waves decay most rapidly. Another interesting feature is that the imaginary parts tend to zero and the real parts to k/2 as a approaches 2. We also find that the variation of the imaginary parts with the real parts in the Garfinkle?Horowitz?Strominger dilaton hole spacetimes is nonlinear, which becomes more complex than that in the Reissner?Nordstr?m black-hole spacetime.

$P-V$ criticality of AdS black hole in $f(R)$ gravity
We study thermodynamics of a charged AdS black hole in the special $f(R)$ correction with the constant Ricci scalar curvature. Our results show that the the $f(R)$ correction influences the Gibbs free energy and the phase transition of system. The ratio $\rho_c$ occurred at the critical point increases monotonically with the derivative term $f'(R_0)$. We also disclose that the critical exponents are the same as those of the liquid-gas phase transition in the Van der Waals model, which does not depend on the $f(R)$ correction considered here.

Phantom scalar emission in the Kerr black hole spacetime
We study the absorption probability and Hawking radiation spectra of a phantom scalar field in the Kerr black hole spacetime. We find that the presence of negative kinetic energy terms modifies the standard results in the graybody factor, super-radiance and Hawking radiation. Comparing with the usual scalar particle, the phantom scalar emission is enhanced in the black hole spacetime.

Is the CMB asymmetry due to the kinematic dipole
Parity violation found in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation is a crucial clue for the non-standard cosmological model or the possible contamination of various foreground residuals and/or calibration of the CMB data sets. In this paper, we study the directional properties of the CMB parity asymmetry by excluding the $m=0$ modes in the definition of parity parameters. We find that the preferred directions of the parity parameters coincide with the CMB kinematic dipole, which implies that the CMB parity asymmetry may be connected with the possible contamination of the residual dipole component. We also find that such tendency is not only localized at $l=2,3$, but in the extended multipole ranges up to $l\sim 22$.

Effects of cosmological constant on motion of UHECR particles
Recent astronomical observations manifest that about two-thirds of the whole energy in the Universe is contributed by a small positive cosmological constant Λ (>0). Then, an asymptotically de Sitter spacetime is premised naturally. However, physics in the de Sitter spacetime is very different from that in the Minkowski spacetime. As the first step, a covariant formalism of the kinematics in the de Sitter spacetime is presented here. By solving exactly the equations of motion for a field, we obtain the dispersion relation of a free particle. It is noticed that the dispersion relation is dependent on the degree of freedom of angular momentum of the particle. We show the threshold anomaly of the ultra high energy cosmic ray disappears naturally in the framework of the de Sitter kinematics.

Noncommutativity as a possible origin of the ultrahigh energy cosmic ray and the TeV-photon paradoxes
In this paper, we present a general modified dispersion relation derived from q-deformed noncommutative theory and apply it to the ultrahigh energy cosmic ray and the TeV-photon paradoxes — threshold anomalies. Our purpose is not only trying to solve these puzzles by noncommutative theory but also to support noncommutative theory through the coincidence of the region in the parameter space for resolving the threshold anomalies with the one from the q-deformed noncommutative theory.

REPLY TO THE COMMENT ON "NONCOMMUTATIVITY AS A POSSIBLE ORIGIN OF THE ULTRAHIGH-ENERGY COSMIC RAY AND THE TEV PHOTON PARADOXES"
A cogitative comment on Ref. 1 was given by the author of Ref. 2 arguing that the Lorentz-noninvariant modification of the kinematic dispersion law does not follow from deformed oscillator systems, and it cannot evade ultrahigh energy threshold anomalies by raising the respective thresholds. It is pointed out that the dispersion relations of a q-deformed boson and fermion are derived heedlessly and further study on noncommutative theories is necessary. However if such dispersion relations are assumed tenable, the tachyonic propagation and photon instability do not exist at all because the deviation from 1 in q must be imaginary.

DESIGN OF LOW IMPEDANCE ELECTROSTATIC SEPARATORS FOR BEPC II
The multi bunch train collision is adopted in BEPC II. There are 4 horizontal electrostatic separators in the main ring to generate close-orbit displacement as "pretzels" which allow the electrons and positrons to be stored in the same vacuum chamber simultaneously without unwanted destructive collisions. In the separator the beam current (576mA) and the gap voltage (220 kV) are both very high. So there are five key problems that must be handled well: To reduce the beam impedance and loss factor; To absorb the high order modes (HOMs); To reduce the leakage of RF EM field; To extract the heats due to the HOMs losses and the SR power; To reduce the spark rate. Their analysis and the solutions are presented in this paper.
