Asymptotic quasinormal modes of a coupled scalar field in the Gibbons-Maeda dilaton spacetime
Adopting the monodromy technique devised by Motl and Neitzke, we investigate analytically the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies of a coupled scalar field in the Gibbons–Maeda dilaton spacetime. We find that it is described by , which depends on the structure parameters of the background spacetime and on the coupling between the scalar and gravitational fields. As the parameters ξ and βI tend to zero, the real parts of the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies become THln 3, which is consistent with Hod's conjecture. When , the formula becomes that of the Reissner–Nordstrom spacetime.

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.

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.

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.

Matter bounce cosmology with the f(T) gravity
We show that the f(T) gravitational paradigm, in which gravity is described by an arbitrary function of the torsion scalar, can provide a mechanism for realizing bouncing cosmologies, thereby avoiding the Big Bang singularity. After constructing the simplest version of an f(T) matter bounce, we investigate the scalar and tensor modes of cosmological perturbations. Our results show that metric perturbations in the scalar sector lead to a background-dependent sound speed, which is a distinguishable feature from Einstein gravity. Additionally, we obtain a scale-invariant primordial power spectrum, which is consistent with cosmological observations, but suffers from the problem of a large tensor-to-scalar ratio. However, this can be avoided by introducing extra fields, such as a matter bounce curvaton.Communicated by P R L V Moniz

THE COUPLED RESONATOR MODEL AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE ELECTRIC FIELD ON THE AXIS IN THE PERIODIC CAVITY CHAIN. (IN CHINESE)
The Coupled resonator model and the distribution of the electric Field on the axisin the singly periodic cavity chain and biperiodic chain with full-cavity terminationsare analysed by Helmholtz Equation using the symmetry properties of the structure.It is another method to check coupled circuit theory. The results given in this paper forthe singly periodic cavity chain with full- cavity terminations was verified by a 600MHZ linac model of IHEP.

Geometry and optics calibration of WFCTA prototype telescopes using star light
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory project is proposed to study high energy gamma ray astronomy ( 40 GeV-1 PeV ) and cosmic ray physics ( 20 TeV-1 EeV ). The wide field of view Cherenkov telescope array, as a component of the LHAASO project, will be used to study energy spectrum and compositions of cosmic ray by measuring the total Cherenkov light generated by air showers and shower maximum depth. Two prototype telescopes have been in operation since 2008. The pointing accuracy of each telescope is crucial to the direction reconstruction of the primary particles. On the other hand the primary energy reconstruction relies on the shape of the Cherenkov image on the camera and the unrecorded photons due to the imperfect connections between photomultiplier tubes. UV bright stars are used as point-like objects to calibrate the pointing and to study the optical properties of the camera, the spot size and the fractions of unrecorded photons in the insensitive areas of the camera.

Detective quantum efficiency of electron area detectors in electron microscopy
Recent progress in detector design has created the need for a careful side-by-side comparison of the modulation transfer function (MTF) and resolution-dependent detective quantum efficiency (DQE) of existing electron detectors with those of detectors based on new technology. We present MTF and DQE measurements for four types of detector: Kodak SO-163 film, TVIPS 224 charge coupled device (CCD) detector, the Medipix2 hybrid pixel detector, and an experimental direct electron monolithic active pixel sensor (MAPS) detector. Film and CCD performance was measured at 120 and 300 keV, while results are presented for the Medipix2 at 120 keV and for the MAPS detector at 300 keV. In the case of film, the effects of electron backscattering from both the holder and the plastic support have been investigated. We also show that part of the response of the emulsion in film comes from light generated in the plastic support. Computer simulations of film and the MAPS detector have been carried out and show good agreement with experiment. The agreement enables us to conclude that the DQE of a backthinned direct electron MAPS detector is likely to be equal to, or better than, that of film at 300 keV.
