The , , and decays in the perturbative QCD approach
Two-body non-leptonic charmed decays , ,
and are analyzed in perturbative QCD approach, where
and denote the light pseudoscalar meson and vector meson, respectively.
We test the meson wave function by a fit with experimental data of
six channels. We give the branching ratios of all the charmed B decay
channels, most of which agree with experiments amazingly well. The predicted
decays can be confronted with the future experimental data. By
straightforward calculations, our pQCD approach gives the right relative strong
phase of with experiments. We also predict the percentage of
transverse polarizations in decay channels.Comment: 25 pages, 4 figure
Dark Matter & Dark Energy from a single scalar field: CMB spectrum and matter transfer function
The dual axion model (DAM), yielding bot DM and DE form a PQ-like scalar
field solving the strong CP problem, is known to allow a fair fit of CMB data.
Recently, however, it was shown that its transfer function exhibits significant
anomalies, causing difficulties to fit deep galaxy sample data. Here we show
how DAM can be modified to agree with the latter data set. The modification
follows the pattern suggested to reconcile any PQ-like approach with gravity.
Modified DAM allows precise predictions which can be testable against future
CMB and/or deep sample data.Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures, accepted for publication in JCA
Perturbative QCD Forbidden Charmonium Decays and Gluonia
We address the problem of observed charmonium decays which should be
forbidden in perturbative QCD. We examine the model in which these decays
proceed through a gluonic component of the and the , arising
from a mixing of and glueball states. We give some bounds on the
values of the mixing angles and propose the study of the reaction, at GeV, as an independent test of the
model.Comment: 8pages, lateX, DFTT 64-9
Axion Emission by Magnetic-Field Induced Conversion of Longitudinal Plasmons
Magnetic fields mix axions with photons, allowing for the cyclotron process e
-> e + a by virtue of an intermediate plasmon even if axions do not couple to
electrons at tree level. The axion and longitudinal-plasmon dispersion
relations always cross for a certain wave number, leading to a resonant
enhancement of this process. Even then, however, it cannot quite compete with
the usual nucleon processes in a supernova core. The well-known axion window
10^{-5} eV < m_a < 10^{-2} eV remains open and axions may still constitute the
cosmic dark matter.Comment: 5 pages, REVTEX, 3 eps figs include
