    It is shown that the phase factor i^(J+j+I) omitted in a theory of atom‐diatom monreactive scattering formulated by schatz and kupperman but included in the Choi, Poe, and Tang theory does not lead to errors in the analysis of te (H,H_2) system

    Piecewise Certificates of Positivity for matrix polynomials

    We show that any symmetric positive definite homogeneous matrix polynomial MR[x1,...,xn]m×mM\in\R[x_1,...,x_n]^{m\times m} admits a piecewise semi-certificate, i.e. a collection of identites M(x)=jfi,j(x)Ui,j(x)TUi,j(x)M(x)=\sum_jf_{i,j}(x)U_{i,j}(x)^TU_{i,j}(x) where Ui,j(x)U_{i,j}(x) is a matrix polynomial and fi,j(x)f_{i,j}(x) is a non negative polynomial on a semi-algebraic subset SiS_i, where Rn=i=1rSi\R^n=\cup_{i=1}^r S_i. This result generalizes to the setting of biforms. Some examples of certificates are given and among others, we study a variation around the Choi counterexample of a positive semi-definite biquadratic form which is not a sum of squares. As a byproduct we give a representation of the famous non negative sum of squares polynomial x4z2+z4y2+y4x23x2y2z2x^4z^2+z^4y^2+y^4x^2-3 x^2y^2z^2 as the determinant of a positive semi-definite quadratic matrix polynomial

    Is X(3872) a possible candidate of hybrid meson

    The associate productions of X(3872) and J/\psi in hadron collisions and flavor independence of hadrons in ee^+\to X(3872)+hadrons and the decays X(3872)\to \gamma+hadrons are discussed. It is pointed out X(3872)\to J/\psi+\sigma could be a significant decay channel.Comment: 13 page

    Inclusive decays of ηb\eta_{b} into SS- and PP-wave charmonium states

    Inclusive S- and P-wave charmonium productions in the bottomonium ground state ηb\eta_b decay are calculated at the leading order in the strong coupling constant αs\alpha_s and quarkonium internal relative velocity vv in the framework of the NRQCD factorization approach. We find the contribution of ηbχcJ+gg\eta_b \to \chi_{c_J}+ g g followed by χcJJ/ψ+γ\chi_{c_J} \to J/\psi+ \gamma is also very important to the inclusive J/ψJ/\psi production in the ηb\eta_b decays, which maybe helpful to the investigation of the color-octet mechanism in the inclusive J/ψJ/\psi production in the ηb\eta_b decays in the forthcoming LHCb and SuperB. As a complementary work, we also study the inclusive production of ηc\eta_c, and χcJ\chi_{cJ} in the ηb\eta_b decays, which may help us understand the X(3940) and X(3872) states.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure
