CORRECTIONS TO Z HADRONIC DECAYS FROM COMPOSITE MODEL
We assume that the gauge bosons W and Z are composed of subconstituents. The generalized form for Hung-Sakurai model is obtained in the existence of the exciting states of W and Z bosons. It is shown that the prediction for the Z hadronic width is smaller than that of standard model since the gauge coupling constant decreases in the composite model. One–loop contributions from the exciting states are also discussed.

Supernova Neutrinos Detection On Earth
In this paper, we first discuss the detection of supernova neutrino on Earth. Then we propose a possible method to acquire information about θ13 smaller than 1.5 ◦ by detecting the ratio of the event numbers of different flavor supernova neutrinos. Such an sensitivity cannot yet be achieved by the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment.

Strong decays of heavy baryons in the Bethe-Salpeter formalism
In this paper we study the properties of diquarks (composed of u and/or d quarks) in the Bethe-Salpeter (BS) formalism under the covariant instantaneous approximation. We calculate their BS wave functions and study their effective interaction with the pion. Using the effective coupling constant among the diquarks and the pion, in the heavy quark limit m{sub Q}{yields}{infinity}, we calculate the decay widths of {sigma}{sub Q}{sup (*)} (Q=c, b) in the BS formalism under the covariant instantaneous approximation and then give predictions of the decay widths {gamma}({sigma}{sub b}{sup (*)}{yields}{lambda}{sub b}+{pi})

A dynamical mechanism for the hairpin diagram
SummaryBased on the nonvalence quark-antiquark and gluon constituent structure of mesons we give a reasonable dynamical mechanism which can induce the hairpin diagram without violating the well-observed OZI rule. We calculate the hairpin amplitudes of
$$D^0 \to \overline K ^0 \eta $$
 and
$$\overline K ^0 \eta '$$
 normalized by
$$D^0 \to \overline K ^0 \pi ^0 $$
 and have found that the hairpin diagram can give rise to substantial contributions to the decays where a meson with aSU(3) flavor singlet component is involved in the final state. In this scenario, we also obtain the branching ratio of
$$D^0 \to \overline K ^0 \phi $$
 as 0.55% in comparison with the experimental data of 0.83%.

$CP$ violation for $B^{0}\rightarrow \rho^{0}(\omega)\rho^{0}(\omega) \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ in QCD factorization
In the QCD factorization (QCDF) approach we study the direct $CP$ violation in $\bar{B}^{0}\rightarrow\rho^0(\omega)\rho^0(\omega)\rightarrow\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ via the $\rho-\omega$ mixing mechanism. We find that the $CP$ violation can be enhanced by double $\rho-\omega$ mixing when the masses of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ pairs are in the vicinity of the $\omega$ resonance, and the maximum $CP$ violation can reach 28{\%}. We also compare the results from the naive factorization and the QCD factorization.

CP violation in $B^{\pm} \rightarrow \pi^{\pm}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ in the region with low invariant mass of one $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ pair
Recently, the large CP asymmetries in B → πππ decays were found by the LHCb Collaboration to localize in the region m π+π− < 0.4 GeV. We find such large localized CP asymmetries may be due to the interference between a light scalar and ρ(770) intermediate resonances. Consequently, we argue that the distribution of CP asymmetries in the Dalitz plots of three-body B decays could be very helpful for identifying the presence of the scalar resonance.

Probing Multiparton Correlation Functions In Deeply Inelastic Scattering
We derive the transverse momentum broadening of the leading pions in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleus collisions. We argue that the measurement of such transverse momentum broadening can provide direct information on the multiple-parton correlation functions inside a nucleus. We also estimate the numerical values of such broadening at different values of xB and Q 2. 11.80.La, 12.38.Bx, 13.85.Ni, 24.80.-x Typeset using REVTEX

Nuclear dependence in the Drell-Yan transverse momentum distribution
We calculate the nuclear enhancement in the Drell-Yan transverse momentum distribution in hadron-nucleus collisions. In terms of the multiple scattering picture, we compute the contributions from double scattering. Applying the generalized factorization theorem, we express the nuclear enhancement in terms of twist-4 nuclear parton correlation functions. Using the known information on these twist-4 parton correlation functions, we estimate the nuclear enhancement for Drell-Yan pairs in the large q{sub T} region. We also discuss the source of nuclear suppression in the small q{sub T} region. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital The American Physical Society}

Multiple scattering and energy loss in semi-inclusive deeply inelastic eA scattering
We calculate the multiple scattering effect on single hadron production in semi-inclusive lepton-nucleus deeply inelastic scattering. We show that the quantum interference of multiple scattering amplitudes leads to suppression in hadron productions. At the leading power in medium length, the suppression can be approximately expressed in terms of a shift in $z$ of the fragmentation function $D(z)$, and could be therefore interpreted as the collisional energy loss. We compare our calculation with existing experimental data. We also discuss the effect of quark mass on the suppression. Our approach can be extended to other observables in hadronic collisions.

Probing quark-gluon correlation functions
We review the applicability of the QCD factorization theorem to multiple scattering in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleus scattering. We show why an A{sup 1/3}-type nuclear enhancement can be calculated consistently in perturbative QCD. We derive the transverse momentum broadening of the leading pions in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleus collisions. We argue that the measurement of such transverse momentum broadening can provide direct information on the multiple-parton correlation functions inside a nucleus. We also estimate the numerical values of the broadening at different values of x{sub B} and Q{sup 2}. (c) 2000 The American Physical Society.

Gluon minijet production in nuclear collisions at high energies
We show explicitly that the leading soft gluon p{sub T} distribution, predicted by Kovner, McLerran, and Weigert after solving classical Yang-Mills equations, can be understood in terms of conventional QCD perturbation theory. We also demonstrate that the key logarithm in their result represents the logarithm in DGLAP evolution equations. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
