Analysis of the vector and axialvector Bc mesons with QCD sum rules
In this article, we study the vector and axialvector Bc mesons with QCD sum rules, and make reasonable predictions for the masses and decay constants, then calculate the leptonic decay widths. The present predictions for the masses and decay constants can be confronted with the experimental data in the future. We can also take the masses and decay constants as basic input parameters and study other phenomenological quantities with the three-point vacuum correlation functions via QCD sum rules.

Analysis of mass difference of the $\pi$ and $\rho$ with Bethe-Salpeter equation
In this article, we take into account the one-pion exchange force besides the onegluon exchange force to study the mass difference of the π and ρ mesons with the Bethe-Salpeter equation. After projecting the Bethe-Salpeter equation into an simple form, we can see explicitly that the bound energy |Eπ| ≫ |Eρ|. PACS number: 12.39.Ki, 12.39.Pn

ANALYSIS OF THE $B \to K^*_2(1430), a_2(1320), f_2(1270)$ FORM-FACTORS WITH LIGHT-CONE QCD SUM RULES
In this paper, we study the form-factors with the light-cone QCD sum rules, where the B-meson light-cone distribution amplitudes are used. In calculations, we observe that the line-shapes of the B-meson light-cone distribution amplitude ϕ+(ω) have significant impacts on the values of the form-factors, and expect to obtain severe constraints on the parameters of the B-meson light-cone distribution amplitudes from the experimental data in the future.

Analysis of the Y(2175) as a tetraquark state with QCD sum rules
Abstract In this article, we take the point of view that Y ( 2175 ) be a tetraquark state which consists of color octet constituents, and calculate its mass and decay constant within the framework of the QCD sum rule approach. We release standard criterion in the QCD sum rules approach and take more phenomenological analysis, the value of the mass of Y ( 2175 ) is consistent with experimental data; there may be some tetraquark components in the state Y ( 2175 ) . If we retain standard criterion, larger mass than experimental data can be obtained, the current J μ ( x ) can interpolate a tetraquark state with larger mass, or Y ( 2175 ) has some components with larger mass. The dominating contribution comes from the perturbative term, which is in contrast to the sum rules with interpolating currents constructed from diquark pairs. The tetraquark states may consist of color octet constituents rather than diquark pairs.

Magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $\Theta^+(1540)$
In this article, we study the magnetic moment of the pentaquark $ \Theta^+(1540)$ as (scalar)diquark-(pseudoscalar)diquark-antiquark state with the QCD sum rules approach in the external electromagnetic field. Due to the special structure of the interpolating current, only the electromagnetic interactions of the $s$ quark with the external field have contributions to the magnetic moment with tensor structure $\{\sigma_{\mu\nu} {\hat p} +{\hat p}\sigma_{\mu\nu}\}$. The numerical results indicate the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $ \Theta^+(1540)$ is about $\mu_{\Theta^+}=(0.16\pm0.03)\mu_N$.

Next-to-leading Order Perturbative Contributions in the QCD Sum Rules for Mesonic Two-point Correlation Functions with Unequal Quark Masses
In this article, we assume that the two quarks have unequal masses and calculate the next-to-leading order contributions to the spectral densities of the mesonic two-point correlation functions of the vector, axialvector, scalar and pseudoscalar currents. We take dimensional regularization to regularize both the ultraviolet and infrared divergences, and use optical theorem to obtain the spectral densities directly, furthermore, we present some necessary technical details for readers convenience. The analytical expressions are applicable in many phenomenological analysis besides the QCD sum rules.

Cubic to tetragonal phase transformation in cold-compressed Pd nanocubes.
Pd nanocubes with an average side length of approximately 10 nm were compressed up to 24.8 GPa in a diamond-anvil cell (DAC). In situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction was used to monitor structural changes, and a face-centered cubic (fcc) to face-centered tetragonal (fct) distortion was observed for the first time. This novel discovery not only provides new insights into the pressure-induced behavior of faceted nanocrystals of palladium and other noble metals but also gives guidance for finding new phases in close-packed metals.

Strongly correlated topological superconductors and topological phase transitions via Green's function
We propose several topological order parameters expressed in terms of Green's function at zero frequency for topological superconductors, which generalizes the previous work for interacting insulators. The coefficient in topological field theory is expressed in terms of zero frequency Green's function. We also study topological phase transition beyond noninteracting limit in this zero frequency Green's function approach.

The dilepton spectrometer
Abstract The dilepton spectrometer (DLS) at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory's Bevalac has been designed and constructed to investigate the production of electron-positron pairs with low mass and low transverse momentum in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions for incident-beam kinetic energies of 5 A GeV and less. This article briefly recalls the physics objectives of the program, discusses the methodology of the measurement, presents details of the design of the spectrometer and the detector elements, and reports on their performance. Selected experimental results are given to illustrate the capability of the DLS and to demonstrate the level to which it is possible to realize the physics objectives with the spectrometer.

Topological quantum phase transitions and edge states in spin-orbital coupled Fermi gases
We study superconducting states in the presence of spin-orbital coupling and Zeeman field. It is found that a phase transition from a Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state to the topological superconducting state occurs upon increasing the spin-orbital coupling. The nature of this topological phase transition and its critical property are investigated numerically. Physical properties of the topological superconducting phase are also explored. Moreover, the local density of states is calculated, through which the topological feature may be tested experimentally.

Dilepton production from p-p to CaCa at the Bevalac
Abstract The DLS collaboration has recently completed a high statistics study of dilepton production at the Bevalac. In particular, we have measured dielectrons (e + e − ) from p - p and p - d collisions to understand the basic dilepton production mechanisms in the energy range from 1.05 – 4.9 GeV. These data can be used to determine the basic processes which contribute to nucleon-nucleon dilepton production such as hadronic bremsstrahlung, vector meson processes, and hadronic Dalitz decay. The data show that a simple elastic bremsstrahlung calculation is insufficient to explain the data. Theoretical models are compared with the data. A new high statistics study of Ca  Ca at 1.05 A·GeV has been made to study the collectivity of A - A collisions.
