The State Equation of the Yang-Mills field Dark Energy Models
In this paper, we study the possibility of building Yang-Mills(YM) field dark
energy models with equation of state (EoS) crossing -1, and find that it can
not be realized by the single YM field models, no matter what kind of
lagrangian or initial condition. But the states of and
all can be naturally got in this kind of models. The former is like
a quintessence field, and the latter is like a phantom field. This makes that
one can build a model with two YM fields, in which one with the initial state
of , and the other with . We give an example model of
this kind, and find that its EoS is larger than -1 in the past and less than -1
at the present time. We also find that this change must be from to
, and it will go to the critical state of with the expansion
of the Universe, which character is same with the single YM field models, and
the Big Rip is naturally avoided.Comment: 20 pages, 4 figures. minor typos correcte
Natural Phantom Dark Energy, Wiggling Hubble Parameter and Direct Data
Recent direct data indicate that the parameter may wiggle with
respect to . On the other hand the luminosity distance data of supernovae
flatten the wiggles of because of integration effect. It is expected
that the fitting results can be very different in a model permitting a wiggling
because the data of supernovae is highly degenerated to such a model. As
an example the natural phantom dark energy is investigated in this paper. The
dynamical property of this model is studied. The model is fitted by the direct
data set and the SNLS data set, respectively. And the results are quite
different, as expected. The quantum stability of this model is also shortly
discussed. We find it is a viable model if we treat it as an effective theory
truncated by an upperbound.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figures, discussions on the stability added, conclusions

Attractor Solution in Coupled Yang-Mills Field Dark Energy Models
We investigate the attractor solution in the coupled Yang-Mills field dark
energy models with the general interaction term, and obtain the constraint
equations for the interaction if the attractor solution exists. The research
also shows that, if the attractor solution exists, the equation-of-state of the
dark energy must evolve from to , which is slightly suggested
by the observation. At the same time, the total equation-of-state in the
attractor solution is , the universe is a de Sitter expansion, and
the cosmic big rip is naturally avoided. These features are all independent of
the interacting forms.Comment: 6 pages, no figure. version for publication. IJMPD accepte
Reconstructing quintom from WMAP 5-year observations: Generalized ghost condensate
In the 5-year WMAP data analysis, a new parametrization form for dark energy
equation-of-state was used, and it has been shown that the equation-of-state,
, crosses the cosmological-constant boundary . Based on this
observation, in this paper, we investigate the reconstruction of quintom dark
energy model. As a single-real-scalar-field model of dark energy, the
generalized ghost condensate model provides us with a successful mechanism for
realizing the quintom-like behavior. Therefore, we reconstruct this
scalar-field quintom dark energy model from the WMAP 5-year observational
results. As a comparison, we also discuss the quintom reconstruction based on
other specific dark energy ansatzs, such as the CPL parametrization and the
holographic dark energy scenarios.Comment: 8 pages, 11 figure
Entropy-Corrected Holographic Dark Energy
The holographic dark energy (HDE) is now an interesting candidate of dark
energy, which has been studied extensively in the literature. In the derivation
of HDE, the black hole entropy plays an important role. In fact, the
entropy-area relation can be modified due to loop quantum gravity or other
reasons. With the modified entropy-area relation, we propose the so-called
``entropy-corrected holographic dark energy'' (ECHDE) in the present work. We
consider many aspects of ECHDE and find some interesting results. In addition,
we briefly consider the so-called ``entropy-corrected agegraphic dark energy''
(ECADE).Comment: 11 pages, 2 tables, revtex4; v2: references adde
Parallel momentum distribution of the Si fragments from P
Distribution of the parallel momentum of Si fragments from the breakup
of 30.7 MeV/nucleon P has been measured on C targets. The distribution
has the FWHM with the value of 110.5 23.5 MeV/c which is consistent
quantitatively with Galuber model calculation assuming by a valence proton in
P. The density distribution is also predicted by Skyrme-Hartree-Fock
calculation. Results show that there might exist the proton-skin structure in
P.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
The DArk Matter Particle Explorer mission
The DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE), one of the four scientific space
science missions within the framework of the Strategic Pioneer Program on Space
Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is a general purpose high energy
cosmic-ray and gamma-ray observatory, which was successfully launched on
December 17th, 2015 from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The DAMPE
scientific objectives include the study of galactic cosmic rays up to
TeV and hundreds of TeV for electrons/gammas and nuclei respectively, and the
search for dark matter signatures in their spectra. In this paper we illustrate
the layout of the DAMPE instrument, and discuss the results of beam tests and
calibrations performed on ground. Finally we present the expected performance
in space and give an overview of the mission key scientific goals.Comment: 45 pages, including 29 figures and 6 tables. Published in Astropart.

Systematic studies of binding energy dependence of neutron - proton momentum correlation function
Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) results of the neutron-proton correlation function
have been systematically investigated for a series nuclear reactions with light
projectiles with help of Isospin-Dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamics model.
The relationship between the binding energy per nucleon of the projectiles and
the strength of the neutron-proton HBT at small relative momentum has been
obtained. Results show that neutron-proton HBT results are sensitive to the
binding energy per nucleon.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures; accepted by Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and

Measurement of the chi_{c2} Polarization in psi(2S) to gamma chi_{c2}
The polarization of the chi_{c2} produced in psi(2S) decays into gamma
chi_{c2} is measured using a sample of 14*10^6 psi(2S) events collected by
BESII at the BEPC. A fit to the chi_{c2} production and decay angular
distributions in psi(2S) to gamma chi_{c2}, chi_{c2} to pi pi and KK yields
values x=A_1/A_0=2.08+/-0.44 and y=A_2/A_0=3.03 +/-0.66, with a correlation
rho=0.92 between them, where A_{0,1,2} are the chi_{c2} helicity amplitudes.
The measurement agrees with a pure E1 transition, and M2 and E3 contributions
do not differ significantly from zero.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl
Direct detection of a break in the teraelectronvolt cosmic-ray spectrum of electrons and positrons
High energy cosmic ray electrons plus positrons (CREs), which lose energy
quickly during their propagation, provide an ideal probe of Galactic
high-energy processes and may enable the observation of phenomena such as
dark-matter particle annihilation or decay. The CRE spectrum has been directly
measured up to TeV in previous balloon- or space-borne experiments,
and indirectly up to TeV by ground-based Cherenkov -ray
telescope arrays. Evidence for a spectral break in the TeV energy range has
been provided by indirect measurements of H.E.S.S., although the results were
qualified by sizeable systematic uncertainties. Here we report a direct
measurement of CREs in the energy range by the
DArk Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) with unprecedentedly high energy
resolution and low background. The majority of the spectrum can be properly
fitted by a smoothly broken power-law model rather than a single power-law
model. The direct detection of a spectral break at TeV confirms the
evidence found by H.E.S.S., clarifies the behavior of the CRE spectrum at
energies above 1 TeV and sheds light on the physical origin of the sub-TeV
CREs.Comment: 18 pages, 6 figures, Nature in press, doi:10.1038/nature2447
