A solution to Higgs naturalness
The Standard Model (SM) is usually considered to be unnatural because the scalar Higgs mass receives a quadratic divergent correction. We suggest a new way to solve the naturalness problem from point of view of renormalization group method. Our approach is illustrated through the familiar $\phi^4$ theory. A renormalization group equation for scalar field mass is proposed by introducing a subtraction scale. We give a non-trivial prediction: the Higss mass at short-distance is a damping exponential function of the energy scale. It follows from a characteristic of the SM that the couplings to Higgs are proportional to field masses, in particular the Higgs self-interactions. In the ultraviolent limit, the Higgs mass approaches to a mass called by Veltman mass which is at the order of the electroweak scale. The fine-tuning is not necessary. The Higgs naturalness problem is solved by radiative corrections themselves.

The Factorization in exclusive B decays: A Critical look
I review the theoretical ideas and concepts along the line of factorization in the exclusive B decays. In order to understand the naive factorization, the effective field theories and the perturbative method of QCD are introduced and developed. We focus our discussions on the large energy effective theory, the QCD factorization approach and the soft-collinear effective theory.

Constraints on unparticle interactions from particle and antiparticle oscillations
AbstractUnparticles have dramatic effects on particle and antiparticle oscillations in meson–antimeson and muonium–antimuonium systems. Unlike the usual tree-level contributions to meson oscillations from heavy-particle exchange, which results in a small Γ12, the unparticle may have sizeable contributions to both M12 and Γ12 due to the fractional dimension 
$d_{\mathcal{U}}$ 
of the unparticle. If the unparticle effect dominates the contributions (which may happen in D0–
$\bar{D}^{0}$ 
mixing) to the meson mixing parameters x and y, we find that 
$x/y=\cot(\pi d_{\mathcal{U}})$
. The mass difference Δm in meson mixing can provide interesting constraints on the unparticle interactions. The unparticle interaction can significantly enhance the CP asymmetry in meson mixing, which can be tested in more accurate experiments in the future. Interesting constraints on unparticle and particle interactions can also be obtained using muonion and antimuonion oscillation data.

UNPARTICLE PHYSICS AND NEUTRAL MESON MIXING
The concept of exact and broken scale invariance is discussed. We give a brief introduction to unparticle physics. The neutral meson mixing can be caused by exchange of unparticle at the tree level. The constraints on interaction between unparticle and SM quarks are discussed.

The reliability of pQCD approach in pion electromagnetic form factor
The pion electromagnetic form factor with leading and next-to-leading twist corrections are studied in the framework of pQCD approach. We find that, at small momentum transfer regions, Sudakov effects cannot provide a strong enough suppression of the non-perturbative contributions coming from large transverse separations, but at large momentum transfer region, non-perturbative contributions can be effectively suppressed. So pQCD approach can be applied at large momentum transfer region. At the energy region where experiment can access so far, i.e. Q < 4GeV, pQCD prediction can not be precise because there may be a quite large part of contributions coming from non-perturbative region. The calculation of power corrections may not be performed systematically in pQCD framework.

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.

About the Clusterization of Partons in the Hadron Processes
In this paper the concept of the clusterizations of partons of two kinds is proposed. In terms of the model of quark recombination and the perturbative QCD a set of distribution functions describing the clusterization of the second kind are separated from the quark fragmentation function, and so some quantitative phenomenological information about the QCD soft processes is obtained.

Hyperon coupling dependence of hadron matter properties in relativistic mean field model
The properties of hadronic matter at β equilibrium in a wide range of densities are described by appropriate equations of state in the framework of the relativistic mean field model. Strange meson fields, namely the scalar meson field σ* (975) and the vector meson field (1020), are included in the present work. We discuss and compare the results of the equation of state, nucleon effective mass, and strangeness fraction obtained by adopting the TM1, TMA, and GL parameter sets for nuclear sector and three different choices for the hyperon couplings. We find that the parameter set TM1 favours the onset of hyperons most, while at high densities the GL parameter set leads to the most hyperon-rich matter. For a certain parameter set (e.g. TM1), the most hyperon-rich matter is obtained for the hyperon potential model. The influence of the hyperon couplings on the effective mass of nucleon, is much weaker than that on the nucleon parameter set. The nonstrange mesons dominate essentially the global properties of dense hyperon matter. The hyperon potential model predicts the lowest value of the neutron star maximum mass of about 1.45 Msun to be 0.4-0.5 Msun lower than the prediction by using the other choices for hyperon couplings.

Nuclear Shadowing in Very Small Bjorken Variable Region
We show that partonic shadowing model can be used to describe the nuclear shadowing phenomena of Q2 > 1 Gev2. The shadowing saturation observed in E665 experiment in very small Bjorken variable region is originated from the interaction between the component of vector meson in the probe γ* and the nuclear target while Q2 < 0.1 GeV2.

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.
