The Hawking-Page phase transitions in the extended phase space in the Gauss-Bonnet gravity
In this paper, the Hawking-Page phase transitions between the black holes and
thermal anti-de Sitter (AdS) space are studied with the Gauss-Bonnet term in
the extended phase space, in which the varying cosmological constant plays the
role of an effective thermodynamic pressure. The Gauss-Bonnet term exhibits its
effects via introducing the corrections to the black hole entropy and Gibbs
free energy. The global phase structures, especially the phase transition
temperature and the Gibbs free energy , are systematically
investigated, first for the Schwarzschild-AdS black holes and then for the
charged and rotating AdS black holes in the grand canonical ensembles, with
both analytical and numerical methods. It is found that there are terminal
points in the coexistence lines, and decreases at large electric
potentials and angular velocities and also decreases with the Gauss-Bonnet
coupling constant .Comment: 13 pages, 13 figure
A simple proof of exponential decay in the two dimensional percolation model
Kesten showed the exponential decay of percolation probability in the
subcritical phase for the two-dimensional percolation model. This result
implies his celebrated computation that for bond percolation in the
square lattice, and site percolation in the triangular lattice, respectively.
In this paper, we present a simpler proof for Kesten's theorem.Comment: 9 pages and one figur
Contribution of Continuum in the QCD Sum Rule for
Using the soft-pion theorem and the assumption on the final-state
interactions, we include the contribution of continuum into the QCD sum
rules for meson. We find that this contribution can
significantly lower the mass and the decay constant of state. For
the value of the current quark mass , we obtain the
mass of in the interval , being in agreement with the experimental data, and the vector
current decay constant of , much
lower than those obtained in previous literature
C2H N=1-0 and N2H+ J=1-0 observations of Planck Galactic cold clumps
A survey of C2H N=1-0 and N2H+ J=1-0 toward Planck Galactic cold clumps
(PGCCs) was performed using the Purple Mountain Observatory's 13.7 m telescope.
C2H and N2H+ were chosen to study the chemical evolutionary states of PGCCs.
Among 121 observed molecular cores associated with PGCCs, 71 and 58 are
detected with C2H N=1-0 and N2H+ J=1-0, respectively. The detected lines of
most sources can be fitted with a single component with compatible Vlsr and
line widths, which confirms that these PGCC cores are very cold (with gas
temperatures 9-21 K) and quiescent while still dominanted by turbulence. The
ratio between the column densities of C2H and N2H+ (N(C2H)/N(N2H+)) is found to
be a good tracer for the evolutionary states of PGCC cores. Gas-grain chemical
model can reproduce the decreasing trend of N(C2H)/N(N2H+) as a function of
time. The cores with the lowest abundances of N2H+ (X[N2H+] < 10^{-10}) are the
youngest, and have nearly constant abundances of C2H. In evolved cores with
X[N2H+] ~ 1E-9, abundances of C2H drop quickly as the exhaustion of carbon
atoms. Although these PGCC cores are in different evolutionary states, they are
all quite young ( N(N2H+). Mapping observations are
carried out toward 20 PGCC cores. The PGCC cores in Cepheus have lower
N(C2H)/N(N2H+) and larger line widths compared with those in Taurus. This
implies that PGCC cores in Taurus are less chemically evolved than those in
Cepheus.Comment: 23 pages, 6 figures, 5 table
