Analysis of the $B\to a_1(1260)$ form-factors with light-cone QCD sum rules
In this article, we calculate the $B\to a_1(1260)$ form-factors $V_1(q^2)$, $V_2(q^2)$, $V_3(q^2)$ and $A(q^2)$ with the $B$-meson light-cone QCD sum rules. Those form-factors are basic parameters in studying the exclusive non-leptonic two-body decays $B\to AP$ and semi-leptonic decays $B\to A l \nu_l$, $B\to A \bar{l}l$. Our numerical results are consistent with the values from the (light-cone) QCD sum rules. The main uncertainty comes from the parameter $\omega_0$ (or $\lambda_B$), which determines the shapes of the two-particle and three-particle light-cone distribution amplitudes of the $B$ meson, it is of great importance to refine this parameter.

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

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.

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.

Spitzer Imaging of nearby ULIRGs and their Progeny: Fine-Structure Elliptical Galaxies
We present results from two mid-infrared imaging programs of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) and fine-structure elliptical galaxies. The former are known to nearly all be recent mergers between two gas-rich spiral galaxies, while the latter are also believed to be even more aged merger remnants. An examination of these two classes of objects, which may represent different stages of the same putative merger sequence, should reveal similarities in the distribution of their stellar populations and dust content consistent with that expected for time-evolution of the merger. The data reveal for the first time extended dust emission in the ULIRG galaxy bodies and along their tidal features. However, contrary to expectation, we find that the vast majority of the fine-structure elliptical galaxies lack such structured emission. This likely results from the optical selection of the elliptical sample, resulting in a population that reflects the IR-activity (or lack thereof) of optically selected interacting galaxies. Alternately, this may reflect an evolutionary process in the distribution of the dust content of the galaxy bodies.

Design of the local trigger board for the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment
We have designed a local trigger board for the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment, which is aimed to measure the neutrino mixing angle sin(2) 2 theta(13) with a precision down to 1% level. The local trigger board processes both the total number of coincident photomultiplier tube (PMT) hits and the PMT energy sum to make trigger decisions. With this design, a high trigger probability is achieved to meet the system requirement. The design of the local trigger board is presented. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Mass and transverse momentum dependence of the dielectron yield in p-Be collisions at 4.9 GeV
We present the invariant mass and transverse momentum dependence of direct electron-positron pair production in {ital p}-Be collisions at a beam kinetic energy of 4.9 GeV. The acceptance of our apparatus is shown to have no significant effect for masses above 0.15 GeV. After a correction is made for the available phase space, the transverse momentum dependence of the data is found to be comparable to hadron-hadron observations. A phenomenological calculation involving {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}} annihilation into {ital e}{sup +}e{sup {minus}} is shown to be in good agreement with our measurements.

Searching for New Topological Types of Majorana Fermions from Boundary-bulk Correspondence of Topological Insulators/Superconductors
Majorana fermions (MFs) are particles that are their own anti-particles and may satisfy non-Abelian statistics. For the past ten years, a kind of MFs have been theoretically predicted in one-dimensional superconducting models without the time-reversal symmetry (TRS), which has recently intrigued a huge experimental interest to search for this type of exotic particles. Here we report our theoretical discoveries, including (i) a general and quantitative relation between topological stabilities of Fermi surfaces (FSs) and topological insulators(TIs)/superconductors(TSCs) is rigorously established; (ii) based on (i), we find four topologically distinct types of MFs in fermionic systems that have at least the particle-hole symmetry (PHS); (iii) apart from the existing one type, three new types of topologically nontrivial gapless edge-modes (MFs) are revealed for the first time in one dimensional finite systems with both TP and (iv) all kinds of candidate models that potentially have MFs are presented, opening a wider door for searching MFs experimentally.

Calculation of some properties of the vacuum
In this paper, we calculate the dressed quark propagator with the flat bottom potential in the framework of the rainbow Schwinger-Dyson equation, which is determined by mean field approximation of the global colour model Lagrangian. The dressed quark propagator exhibits a dynamical symmetry-breaking phenomenon and gives a constituent quark mass about 392 MeV, which is close to the value of commonly used constituent quark mass in the chiral quark model. Then based on the dressed quark propagator, we calculate some properties of the vacuum, such as quark condensate, mixed quark condensate gs , four quark condensate , tensor, pi vacuum susceptibilities. The numerical results are compatible with the values of other theoretical approaches.
