    The inverse energy cascade in bubbly flow is investigated by a numerical simulation using the Eulerian-Lagrangian model in which the governing equations are formulated with emphasis on the translational motion of bubbles in non-uniform flow. This paper is concerned with the validation of the numerical model and various parametric dependency on the inverse cascade. The calculated results reveal that, 1)continuous growth of the spatial fluctuation scale in a bubble-induced flow is well predicted by the present numerical model and the results have a good analogy with the experimental results which are introduced in our first report, 2)the strong relationship between energy decaying process and bubble-bubble distance interval identified also by the present analysis, 3)the slope of energy-decaying at high wavenumber region depends on the kinetic viscosity of liquid,and that at low wave number region depends on inunifornity of buoyancy distribution which changes due to the bubble motion

    The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this paper, the potential on searching for proton decay in pνˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ mode with JUNO is investigated.The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits to suppress the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via pνˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ is 36.9% with a background level of 0.2 events after 10 years of data taking. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years exposure is 9.6×10339.6 \times 10^{33} years, competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel

    The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this study, the potential of searching for proton decay in the pνˉK+ p\to \bar{\nu} K^+ mode with JUNO is investigated. The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits suppression of the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via pνˉK+ p\to \bar{\nu} K^+ is 36.9% ± 4.9% with a background level of 0.2±0.05(syst)±0.2\pm 0.05({\rm syst})\pm 0.2(stat) 0.2({\rm stat}) events after 10 years of data collection. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years of exposure is 9.6×1033 9.6 \times 10^{33} years, which is competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel and complements the use of different detection technologies
