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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Lifshitz effects on holographic p-wave superfluid
Abstract In the probe limit, we numerically build a holographic p -wave superfluid model in the four-dimensional Lifshitz black hole coupled to a Maxwell-complex vector field. We observe the rich phase structure and find that the Lifshitz dynamical exponent z contributes evidently to the effective mass of the matter field and dimension of the gravitational background. Concretely, we obtain that the Cave of Winds appeared only in the five-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime, and the increasing z hinders not only the condensate but also the appearance of the first-order phase transition. Furthermore, our results agree with the Ginzburg–Landau results near the critical temperature. In addition, the previous AdS superfluid model is generalized to the Lifshitz spacetime.

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.

Kaon Interferometry
Two-kaon and two-pion correlation functions for an expanding thermalized source are compared. In the Yano-Koonin-Podgoretskii parametrization of the correlation function, the HBT radius parameters are shown to obey M_\bot- scaling in the absence of collective transverse flow. This scaling is broken by transverse flow. An accurate comparison of pion and kaon correlations can thus resolve issue whether the observed M_\bot-dependence of the transverse radius parameter is due to transverse collective flow or other transverse gradients. Effects from resonance decays are shortly 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.

Locating the critical point of QCD phase transition by finite-size scaling
It is pointed out that in relativistic heavy ion collisions, critical related observable in the vicinity of critical point should follow finite-size scaling. The methods of finding and locating critical point are established for the first time by finite-size scaling and its critical characteristics, in particular, the fixed-point and straight-line behavior. As an application of the method, the critical behavior at RHIC data is demonstrated.

Parton branching in the color mutation model
The soft production problem in hadronic collisions as described in the eikonal color mutation branching model is improved in the way that the initial parton distribution is treated. Furry branching of the partons is considered as a means of describing the nonperturbative process of parton reproduction in the soft interaction. The values of all the moments, {l_angle}n{r_angle} and C{sub q}, for q=2,{hor_ellipsis},5, as well as their energy dependences, can be correctly determined by the use of only two parameters. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
