    Triangular singularity and a possible ϕp\phi p resonance in the Λc+→π0ϕp\Lambda^+_c \to \pi^0 \phi p decay

    Full text link
    We study the Λc+→π0ϕp\Lambda^+_c \to \pi^0 \phi p decay by considering a triangle singularity mechanism. In this mechanism, the Λc+\Lambda^+_c decays into the K∗Σ∗(1385)K^* \Sigma^*(1385), the Σ∗(1385)\Sigma^*(1385) decays into the π0Σ\pi^0 \Sigma (or Λ\Lambda), and then the K∗ΣK^* \Sigma (or Λ\Lambda) interact to produce the ϕp\phi p in the final state. This mechanism produces a peak structure around 20202020 MeV. In addition, the possibility that there is a hidden-strange pentaquark-like state is also considered by taking into account the final state interactions of K∗ΛK^* \Lambda, K∗ΣK^* \Sigma, and ϕp\phi p. We conclude that it is difficult to search for the hidden-strange analogue of the PcP_c states in this decay. However, we do expect nontrivial behavior in the ϕp\phi p invariant mass distribution. The predictions can be tested by experiments such as BESIII, LHCb and Belle-II.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figure

    Holographic R\'enyi entropy in AdS3_3/LCFT2_2 correspondence

    The recent study in AdS3_3/CFT2_2 correspondence shows that the tree level contribution and 1-loop correction of holographic R\'enyi entanglement entropy (HRE) exactly match the direct CFT computation in the large central charge limit. This allows the R\'enyi entanglement entropy to be a new window to study the AdS/CFT correspondence. In this paper we generalize the study of R\'enyi entanglement entropy in pure AdS3_3 gravity to the massive gravity theories at the critical points. For the cosmological topological massive gravity (CTMG), the dual conformal field theory (CFT) could be a chiral conformal field theory or a logarithmic conformal field theory (LCFT), depending on the asymptotic boundary conditions imposed. In both cases, by studying the short interval expansion of the R\'enyi entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals with small cross ratio xx, we find that the classical and 1-loop HRE are in exact match with the CFT results, up to order x6x^6. To this order, the difference between the massless graviton and logarithmic mode can be seen clearly. Moreover, for the cosmological new massive gravity (CNMG) at critical point, which could be dual to a logarithmic CFT as well, we find the similar agreement in the CNMG/LCFT correspondence. Furthermore we read the 2-loop correction of graviton and logarithmic mode to HRE from CFT computation. It has distinct feature from the one in pure AdS3_3 gravity.Comment: 28 pages.

    Subsystem eigenstate thermalization hypothesis for entanglement entropy in CFT

    Full text link
    We investigate a weak version of subsystem eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) for a two-dimensional large central charge conformal field theory by comparing the local equivalence of high energy state and thermal state of canonical ensemble. We evaluate the single-interval R\'enyi entropy and entanglement entropy for a heavy primary state in short interval expansion. We verify the results of R\'enyi entropy by two different replica methods. We find nontrivial results at the eighth order of short interval expansion, which include an infinite number of higher order terms in the large central charge expansion. We then evaluate the relative entropy of the reduced density matrices to measure the difference between the heavy primary state and thermal state of canonical ensemble, and find that the aforementioned nontrivial eighth order results make the relative entropy unsuppressed in the large central charge limit. By using Pinsker's and Fannes-Audenaert inequalities, we can exploit the results of relative entropy to yield the lower and upper bounds on trace distance of the excited-state and thermal-state reduced density matrices. Our results are consistent with subsystem weak ETH, which requires the above trace distance is of power-law suppression by the large central charge. However, we are unable to pin down the exponent of power-law suppression. As a byproduct we also calculate the relative entropy to measure the difference between the reduced density matrices of two different heavy primary states.Comment: 28 pages, 4 figures;v2 change author list;v3 related subtleties about weak ETH clarified; v4 minor correction to match JHEP versio

    Dissimilarities of reduced density matrices and eigenstate thermalization hypothesis

    Full text link
    We calculate various quantities that characterize the dissimilarity of reduced density matrices for a short interval of length â„“\ell in a two-dimensional (2D) large central charge conformal field theory (CFT). These quantities include the R\'enyi entropy, entanglement entropy, relative entropy, Jensen-Shannon divergence, as well as the Schatten 2-norm and 4-norm. We adopt the method of operator product expansion of twist operators, and calculate the short interval expansion of these quantities up to order of â„“9\ell^9 for the contributions from the vacuum conformal family. The formal forms of these dissimilarity measures and the derived Fisher information metric from contributions of general operators are also given. As an application of the results, we use these dissimilarity measures to compare the excited and thermal states, and examine the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) by showing how they behave in high temperature limit. This would help to understand how ETH in 2D CFT can be defined more precisely. We discuss the possibility that all the dissimilarity measures considered here vanish when comparing the reduced density matrices of an excited state and a generalized Gibbs ensemble thermal state. We also discuss ETH for a microcanonical ensemble thermal state in a 2D large central charge CFT, and find that it is approximately satisfied for a small subsystem and violated for a large subsystem.Comment: V1, 34 pages, 5 figures, see collection of complete results in the attached Mathematica notebook; V2, 38 pages, 5 figures, published versio

    Two-Body Strong Decay of Z(3930) as the χc2(2P)\chi_{c2} (2P) State

    Full text link
    The new particle Z(3930) found by the Belle and BaBar Collaborations through the γγ→DDˉ\gamma\gamma\rightarrow D\bar D process is identified to be the χc2(2P)\chi_{c2}(2P) state. Since the mass of this particle is above the DDˉ(∗)D\bar D^{(\ast)} threshold, the OZI-allowed two-body strong decays are the main decay modes. In this paper, these strong decay modes are studied with two methods. One is the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter method within Mandelstam formalism. The other is the combination of the 3P0^3P_0 model and the former formalism. The total decay widths are 26.3 and 27.3 MeV for the methods with or without the 3P0^3P_0 vertex, respectively. The ratio of ΓDDˉ\Gamma_{D\bar D} over ΓDDˉ∗\Gamma_{D\bar D^\ast} which changes along with the mass of the initial meson is also presented.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
