Bunch by Bunch Beam Diagnostics in SSRF
A set of broadband beam instruments including filling pattern monitor, scope based BPM processor and streak camera has been implemented in the storage ring of SSRF. Several parameters such as charge, lifetime, transverse position, betatron tune and beam length, can be measured for individual bunch by these devices. The operation experience and measurement results will be introduced. The preliminary effort to retrieve wake field information from these measurements will be presented as well. INTRODUCTION Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF), as a 3.5 GeV third generation light source, started user operation with seven beamlines since 2009 [1]. Couple thousands of experiment proposals have been performed during past three years. Meanwhile almost the same number of proposals were rejected or delayed due to limited beamlines and beam time. In order to take full advantage of SSRF an upgrade project of adding more than twenty beamlines has been planed. Lots of in vacuum insertion devices with small gap will involve in this upgrading. Beam instability introduced by multibunch interaction will be a very series issue in this case. Study of machine impedance and wake field became a high priority job. Several broad band instruments with bunch by bunch capability was developed and implemented for this purpose and showed very good potential in recent machine studies. Table 1 shows the primary specification of broad band diagnostics devices equipped in SSRF ring. Table 1: Specification of Bunch by Bunch Instruments Measurement Devices Resolution Charge Button pickup + digitizer 0.1% Position Button pickup + Scope 50 um Length Streak Camera 2 ps During a typical SSRF user shift, beam in storage ring will be filled up to 210 mA with equivalent 500 bunches then decays to 140 mA. A lots of history data produced by above instruments have been accumulated. Detailed analyze of these data will give us some knowledge of multi-bunch interaction.

STUDY OF THE SIGNAL PROCESSING SYSTEM FOR CAVITY BEAM POSITION MONITOR
A prototype of cavity beam position monitor (CBPM), with resonant frequency of 5712MHz [1] and high Q, has been installed in the Shanghai deep ultraviolet freeelectron laser source (SDUV-FEL) facility. A plug & play CBPM signal processor based on broadband oscilloscope embedded IOC (input output controller) and FFT (fast Fourier transform) technique has been developed to do quick evaluation of prototype [2]. According to the evaluation results, a series of simulation using Monte Carlo simulation method, have been carried out as a guideline for the design of dedicated CBPM signal processing system. An RF front end for a prototype of CBPM with resonant frequency of 4700MHz and low Q using the microwave devices is developed and relevant digital signal process algorithms are implemented in MATLAB. Systematic test in lab has been done to evaluate the performance. We got a resolution of 2.8 μm when the continuous sine input signal is 6dBm. INTRODUCTION The free electron laser (FEL) operating in high gain harmonic generation (HGHG) or self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) regime required such high beam position resolution that the electron beam could overlap the generated photon beam stringently and pass through the entire undulator section together. CBPM, which can achieve nano scale resolution as reported [3][4][5], is important and indispensable for the free electron laser (FEL) facility. The Shanghai deep ultraviolet free-electron laser source (SDUV-FEL) facility is operating for cascaded HGHG FEL [6]. According to the relevant references, two types of CBPM with high or low Q, which has something to do with signal intensity, regression time and bandwidth, were developed and used in FEL facilities. For different CBPMs, the different signal process system would be designed. A beam test based on broadband oscilloscope embedded IOC has been done for high-quality-factor CBPM with resonant frequency of 5712MHz. The typical algorithms, such as fitting and digital down convert (DDC)[7], are used in most CBPM signal process systems. We decided to use the FFT technique to implement the beam position measurement. The optimal data length for the FFT technique has been simulated by using signal of beam test. Right now, a prototype of CBPM, not in vacuum, was newly manufactured with 4.7GHz resonant frequency and low Q. And the corresponding CBPM electronics were developed. As we would evaluate performance of two types of CBPM and choose one of them to be used in the future FEL facility, the electronics cover the two prototypes. SYSTEM SETUP The CBPM electronics consist of a dedicated RF (radio frequency) front end and a commercial data acquisition board. RF front end based on the RF receiver architecture is absolutely essential to convert the RF signals to intermediate frequency (IF). Table 1 shows the detail about the selection in our system design.

CORRELATION ANALYSIS OF BEAM DIAGNOSTIC MEASUREMENTS IN SSRF ∗
Signals from various probes of the beam diagnostic system in Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) were processed with correlation analysis algorithms. The resulting data allowed us to sort the probes by confidence, which means the stable and accurate signals could be separated from the faulty or noisy ones. And the beam dynamics measurements became electronic instrument free at the same time. This makes it possible to eliminate bad sensors, such as noisy Beam Position Monitors (BPM), from critical uses, like the feedback system, to offer a more confident set of beam parameters and to estimate useful global information by extracting the relationship between some probes.

Quasinormal behavior of massless scalar field perturbation in Reissner-Nordstrom anti-de Sitter spacetimes
We present a comprehensive study of the massless scalar field perturbation in the Reissner-Nordstroem anti-de Sitter (RNAdS) space-time and compute its quasinormal modes (QNM). For the lowest lying mode, we confirm and extend the dependence of the QNM frequencies on the black hole charge obtained in previous works. In near extreme limit, under the scalar perturbation we find that the imaginary part of the frequency tends to zero, which is consistent with the previous conjecture based on electromagnetic and axial gravitational perturbations. For the extreme value of the charge, the asymptotic field decay is dominated by a power-law tail, which shows that the extreme black hole can still be stable to scalar perturbations. We also study the higher overtones for the RNAdS black hole and find large variations of QNM frequencies with the overtone number and black hole charge. The nontrivial dependence of frequencies on the angular index l is also discussed.

OBSERVATIONAL H(z) DATA AS A COMPLEMENTARITY TO OTHER COSMOLOGICAL PROBES
In this paper, we use a set of observational H(z) data (OHD) to constrain the Lambda CDM cosmology. This dataset can be derived from the differential ages of the passively evolving galaxies. Meanwhile, the A-parameter, which describes the Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) peak, and the newly measured value of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) shift parameter Rare used to present combinational constraints on the same cosmology. The combinational constraints favor an accelerating flat universe while the flat Lambda CDM cosmology is also analyzed in the same way. We obtain result compatible with that by many other independent cosmological observations. We find that the observational H(z) data set is a complementarity to other cosmological probes.

THE MASS FUNCTION OF DARK MATTER HALOES IN A COSMOLOGICAL MODEL WITH A RUNNING PRIMORDIAL POWER SPECTRUM
We present the first study on the mass functions of Jenkins et al. (J01) and an estimate of their corresponding largest virialized dark halos in the Universe for a variety of dark-energy cosmological models with a running spectral index. Compared with the PL–CDM model, the RSI–CDM model can raise the mass abundance of dark halos for small mass halos at lower redshifts, but it is not apparent on scales of massive mass halos. Particularly, this discrepancy increases largely with the decrease of redshift, and the RSI–CDM model can suppress the mass abundance on any scale of halo masses at higher redshift. As for the largest mass of virialized halos, the spatially flat ΛCDM models give more massive mass of virialized objects than other models for both of PL–CDM and RSI–CDM power spectral indexs, and the RSI–CDM model can enhance the mass of largest virialized halos for all of models considered in this paper. So we probably distinguish the PL–CDM and RSI–CDM models by the largest virialized halos in the future...

Signals from the brane-world black hole
We have studied the wave dynamics and the Hawking radiation for a scalar field as well as a brane-localized gravitational field in the background of a brane-world black hole with a tidal charge containing information on the extra dimension. Comparing with four-dimensional black holes, we have observed the signature of the tidal charge which presents the signals of the extra dimension both in the wave dynamics and the Hawking radiation.

The effect of dark matter and dark energy interactions on the peculiar velocity field and the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect
The interaction between Dark Matter and Dark Energy has been proposed as a mechanism to alleviate the coincidence problem. We analyze its effects on the evolution of the gravitational and the peculiar velocity fields. We find that for different model parameters peculiar velocities vary from a factor five times smaller to two times larger than in the ΛCDM cosmological model at the same scales. We propose two new observables sensitive to such interactions based on their effect on the velocity field. We compare the effects on peculiar velocities with those on the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect demonstrating that velocities are more sensitive to the interaction. We show that the current upper limits on the amplitude of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich power spectrum of temperature anisotropies provide constraints on the coupling within the dark sectors that are consistent with those obtained previously from the Cosmic Microwave Background and galaxy clusters. In particular, we show that Atacama Cosmology Telescope and South Pole Telescope data favor the decay of Dark Energy into Dark Matter, as required to solve the coincidence problem.
