Data taking strategy for the phase study in
The study of the relative phase between strong and electromagnetic amplitudes
is of great importance for understanding the dynamics of charmonium decays. The
information of the phase can be obtained model-independently by fitting the
scan data of some special decay channels, one of which is . To find out the optimal data taking strategy for a scan experiment
in the measurement of the phase in , the
minimization process is analyzed from a theoretical point of view. The result
indicates that for one parameter fit, only one data taking point in the
vicinity of a resonance peak is sufficient to acquire the optimal precision.
Numerical results are obtained by fitting simulated scan data. Besides the
results related to the relative phase between strong and electromagnetic
amplitudes, the method is extended to analyze the fits of other resonant
parameters, such as the mass and the total decay width of .Comment: 13 pages, 7 figure

Search for D to phi l nu and measurement of the branching fraction for D to phi pi
Using a data sample of integrated luminosity of about 33 pb collected
around 3.773 GeV with the BESII detector at the BEPC collider, the semileptonic
decays , and the hadronic

NASSAM: a server to search for and annotate tertiary interactions and motifs in three-dimensional structures of complex RNA molecules
Similarities in the 3D patterns of RNA base interactions or arrangements can provide insights into their functions and roles in stabilization of the RNA 3D structure. Nucleic Acids Search for Substructures and Motifs (NASSAM) is a graph theoretical program that can search for 3D patterns of base arrangements by representing the bases as pseudo-atoms. The geometric relationship of the pseudo-atoms to each other as a pattern can be represented as a labeled graph where the pseudo-atoms are the graph's nodes while the edges are the inter-pseudo-atomic distances. The input files for NASSAM are PDB formatted 3D coordinates. This web server can be used to identify matches of base arrangement patterns in a query structure to annotated patterns that have been reported in the literature or that have possible functional and structural stabilization implications. The NASSAM program is freely accessible without any login requirement at http://mfrlab.org/grafss/nassam/
Quantum Dense Coding Exploiting Bright EPR Beam
Highly efficient quantum dense coding for continuous variables has been
experimentally accomplished by means of exploiting bright EPR beam with
anticorrelation of amplitude quadratures and correlation of phase quadratures,
which is generated from a nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier operating
in the state of deamplification. Two bits of classical information are encoded
on two quadratures of a half of bright EPR beam at the sender Alice and
transmitted to the receiver Bob via one qubit of the shared quantum state after
encoding. The amplitude and phase signals are simultaneously decoded with the
other half of EPR beam by the direct measurement of the Bell-state at Bob. The
signal to noise ratios of the simultaneously measured amplitude and phase
signals are improved 5.4dB and 4.8dB with respect to that of the shot noise
limit respectively. A high degree of immunity to unauthorized eavesdropping of
the presented quantum communication scheme is experimentally demonstrated.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figure
Measurements of branching fractions for inclusive K0~/K0 and K*(892)+- decays of neutral and charged D mesons
Using the data sample of about 33 pb-1 collected at and around 3.773 GeV with
the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider, we have studied inclusive K0~/K0 and
K*(892)+- decays of D0 and D+ mesons. The branching fractions for the inclusive
K0~/K0 and K*(892)- decays are measured to be BF(D0 to K0~/K0
X)=(47.6+-4.8+-3.0)%, BF(D+ to K0~/K0 X)=(60.5+-5.5+-3.3)%, BF(D0 to K*-
X)=(15.3+- 8.3+- 1.9)% and BF(D+ to K*- X)=(5.7+- 5.2+- 0.7)%. The upper limits
of the branching fractions for the inclusive K*(892)+ decays are set to be
BF(D0 to K*+ X)<3.6% and BF(D+ to K*+ X) <20.3% at 90% confidence level
Direct Measurements of the Branching Fractions for Inclusive and Inclusive Semileptonic Decays of and Mesons
With singly-tagged samples selected from the data collected at and
around 3.773 GeV with the BESII detector at the BEPC collider, we have measured
the branching fractions for the inclusive decays of and
mesons, which are , , and

widths to be .Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
Information loss in local dissipation environments
The sensitivity of entanglement to the thermal and squeezed reservoirs'
parameters is investigated regarding entanglement decay and what is called
sudden-death of entanglement, ESD, for a system of two qubit pairs. The
dynamics of information is investigated by means of the information disturbance
and exchange information. We show that for squeezed reservoir, we can keep both
of the entanglement and information survival for a long time. The sudden death
of information is seen in the case of thermal reservoir
