Properties of X(3872) as a hadronic molecule with a negative parity
We discuss the possible interpretation of X(3872) as a DD ∗ hadronic molecule with J PC = 2 −+ . Using the phenomenological Lagrangian approach, we studied its radiative and strong decay properties. We find that our model with about 97.6% isospin zero component explains the existing data nicely. We predict the partial widths of the radiative and strong decays of X(3872) and show that the measurement of the ratio B(X(3872) → �c0�0)/B(X(3872) → �c1�0) may signal the nature of X(3872).

Estimates for X ( 4350 ) decays from the effective Lagrangian approach
The strong and electromagnetic decays of X(4350) with quantum numbers J{sup P}=0{sup ++} and 2{sup ++} have been studied by using the effective Lagrangian approach. The coupling constant between X(4350) and D{sub s}*D{sub s0}* is determined with the help of the compositeness condition which means that X(4350) is a bound state of D{sub s}*D{sub s0}*. Other coupling constants applied in the calculation are determined phenomenologically. Our numerical results show that, using the present data, the possibility that X(4350) is a D{sub s}*D{sub s0}* molecule cannot be ruled out within the present model.

Dense baryonic matter in conformally-compensated hidden local symmetry: Vector manifestation and chiral symmetry restoration
We find that, when the dilaton is implemented as a (pseudo-)Nambu-Goldstone boson using a conformal compensator or "conformon" in a hidden gauge symmetric Lagrangian written to $O(p^4)$ from which baryons arise as solitons, namely, skyrmions, the vector manifestation and chiral symmetry restoration at high density predicted in hidden local symmetry theory --- which is consistent with Brown-Rho scaling --- are lost or sent to infinite density. It is shown that they can be restored if in medium the behavior of the $\omega$ field is taken to deviate from that of the $\rho$ meson in such a way that the flavor $U(2)$ symmetry is strongly broken at increasing density. The hitherto unexposed crucial role of the $\omega$ meson in the structure of elementary baryon and multibaryon systems is uncovered in this work. In the state of half-skyrmions to which the skyrmions transform at a density $n_{1/2}^{} \gtrsim n_0^{}$ (where $n_0^{}$ is the normal nuclear matter density), characterized by the vanishing (space averaged) quark condensate but nonzero pion decay constant, the nucleon mass remains more or less constant at a value $\gtrsim$ 60 \% of the vacuum value indicating a large component of the nucleon mass that is not associated with the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry. We discuss its connection to the chiral-invariant mass $m_0^{}$ that figures in the parity-doublet baryon model.

Strong and radiative decays of the D(s0)*(2317) meson in the DK-molecule picture
We consider a possible interpretation of the new charm-strange meson D* s0 (2317) as a hadronic molecule-a bound state of D and K mesons. Using an effective Lagrangian approach, we calculate the strong D* s0 → D s π 0 and radiative D* s0 → D* s γ decays. A new impact related to the DK molecular structure of the D* s0 (2317) meson is that the presence of u(d) quarks in the D and K mesons gives rise to a direct strong isospin-violating transition D* s0 → D s π 0 in addition to the decay mechanism induced by η - π 0 mixing considered previously. We show that the direct transition dominates over the 17 - π 0 mixing transition in the D* s0 → D s π 0 decay. Our results for the partial decay widths are consistent with previous calculations.

ORBITALLY EXCITED STATES OF QUARKONIA IN A NONRELATIVISTIC MODEL
Having succeeded in predicting the S wave spectra and decays of and mesons, Bhaghyesh, K. B. Vijaya Kumar and A. P. Monteiro, J. Phys. G: Nucl. Part. Phys.38, 085001 (2011), in this article, we apply our nonrelativistic quark model to calculate the spectra and decays of the orbitally excited states (P- and D-waves) of heavy quarkonia. The full potential used in our model consists of a Hulthen potential and a confining linear potential. The spin hyperfine, spin-orbit and tensor interactions are introduced to obtain the masses of the P- and D-wave states. The three-dimensional harmonic oscillator wave function is employed as a trial wave function to obtain the mass spectra. The model parameters and the wave function that reproduce the mass spectra of and mesons are used to investigate their decay properties. The two-photon decay widths, two-gluon decay widths and E1 radiative decay widths are calculated. The obtained values are compared with the experimental results and those obtained from other theoretical models.

Anomalous action in gauge invariant, nonlocal, dynamical quark model
Anomalous sector of chiral Lagrangian is calculated in a gauge invariant, nonlocal, dynamical quark model. The Wess-Zumino term is proved coming from two kinds of sources, one is independent of and another dependent on dynamical quark self energy Sigma(k(2)). p(6) and more higher order anomalous sectors come only from Sigma(k(2)) dependent source. After some cancellation, standard Wess-Zumino action is obtained. (C) 2003 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Quantization of the static space-time
A four-dimensional Lorentzian static space-time is equivalent to three-dimensional Euclidean gravity coupled to a massless Klein-Gordon field. By canonically quantizing the coupling model in the framework of loop quantum gravity, we obtain a quantum theory that actually describes quantized static space-times. The kinematical Hilbert space is the product of the Hilbert space of gravity with that of imaginary scalar fields. It turns out that the Hamiltonian constraint of the 2+1 model corresponds to a densely defined operator in the underlying Hilbert space, and hence it is finite without renormalization. As a new point of view, this quantized model might shed some light on a few physical problems concerning quantum gravity.

Possibility to Detect Upgoing Sleptons
Some supersymmetric models predict long lived charged sleptons. If they are exist, the τ ˜ , the supersymmetry partner of τ lepton, could be produced inside the earth by collisions of high energy neutrinos with nucleons. The possible signals of upgoing τ ˜ have been studied in various ways. Taking the atmospheric neutrino flux into account, the muon flux as main background is also estimated. By using the Waxman-Bahcall limit on the extraterrestrial neutrino flux, the resultant spectra show that there are about 70 events per year passing a km-scale underground experiment, such as ICECUBE.

The Classical geometry from a physical state in canonical quantum gravity
We construct a weave state which approximates a degenerate 3-metric of rank 2 at large scales. It turns out that a non-degenerate metric region can be evolved from this degenerate metric by the classical Ashtekar equations, hence the degeneracy of 3-metrics is not preserved by the evolution of Ashtekar's equations. As the s-knot state corresponding to this weave is shown to solve all the quantum constraints in loop quantum gravity, a physical state in canonical quantum gravity is related to the familiar classical geometry.
