LHCb pentaquarks in constituent quark models
The recently discovered and states at LHCb have
masses close to the and thresholds,
respectively, which suggest that they may have significant meson-baryon
molecular components. We analyze these states in the framework of a constituent
quark model which has been applied to a wide range of hadronic observables,
being the model parameters, therefore, completely constrained.
The and are studied as molecular states composed
by charmed baryons and open charm mesons. Several bound states with the proper
binding energy are found in the and
channels. We discuss the possible assignments of these states from their decay
widths. Moreover, two more states are predicted, associated with the and thresholds.Comment: 5 pages, 2 table
Solution of partial differential equations on vector and parallel computers
The present status of numerical methods for partial differential equations on vector and parallel computers was reviewed. The relevant aspects of these computers are discussed and a brief review of their development is included, with particular attention paid to those characteristics that influence algorithm selection. Both direct and iterative methods are given for elliptic equations as well as explicit and implicit methods for initial boundary value problems. The intent is to point out attractive methods as well as areas where this class of computer architecture cannot be fully utilized because of either hardware restrictions or the lack of adequate algorithms. Application areas utilizing these computers are briefly discussed
Axioms for consensus functions on the n-cube
An elementary general result is proved that allows for simple
characterizations of well-known location/consensus functions (median, mean and
center) on the n-cube. In addition, alternate new characterizations are given
for the median and anti-median functions on the n-cube.Comment: 12 page
