Electromagnetic radiation of baryons containing two heavy quarks
The two heavy quarks in a baryon which contains two heavy quarks and a light
one, can constitute a scalar or axial vector diquark. We study electromagnetic
radiations of such baryons, (i) \Xi_{(bc)_1} -> \Xi_{(bc)_0}+\gamma, (ii)
\Xi_{(bc)_1}^* -> \Xi_{(bc)_0}+\gamma, (iii) \Xi_{(bc)_0}^{**}(1/2, l=1) ->
\Xi_{(bc)_0}+\gamma, (iv) \Xi_{(bc)_0}^{**}(3/2, l=1) -> \Xi_{(bc)_0}+\gamma
and (v) \Xi_{(bc)_0}^{**}(3/2, l=2) -> \Xi_{(bc)_0}+\gamma, where
\Xi_{(bc)_{0(1)}}, \Xi^*_{(bc)_1} are S-wave bound states of a heavy scalar or
axial vector diquark and a light quark, and \Xi_{(bc)_0}^{**}(l is bigger than
1) are P- or D-wave bound states of a heavy scalar diquark and a light quark.
Analysis indicates that these processes can be attributed into two categories
and the physical mechanisms which are responsible for them are completely
distinct. Measurements can provide a good judgment for the diquark structure
and better understanding of the physical picture.Comment: 15 pages, Late
Design and performance of polyurethane elastomers composed with different soft segments
Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPUs) are widely used in a variety of applications as a result of flexible and superior performance. However, few scholars pay close attention on the design and synthesis of TPUs through the selfâdetermined laboratory process, especially on definite of chemical structures and upon the influence on properties. To investigate the properties of synthesized modifier based on chemical structure, firstly each kind of unknown structure and composition ratio of TPUs was determined by using a new method. Furthermore, the thermal characteristics and mechanical properties of modifiers were exposed by thermal characteristics and mechanics performance tests. The experimental results indicate that TPUs for use as an asphalt modifier can successfully be synthesized with the aid of semiâprepolymer method. The linear backbone structure of TPUs with different hard segment contents were determined by micro test methods. The polyesterâbased TPUs had thermal behavior better than the polyether-based TPUs; conversely, the low temperature performance of polyetherâbased TPUs was superior. Most importantly, it was found that the relative molecular mass of TPUs exhibited a weak effect on the mechanical properties, whereas the crystallinity of hard segment showed a significant influence on the properties of TPUs
31P NMR Investigation of the Superconductor LiFeP (Tc = 5 K)
We investigate the static and dynamic spin susceptibility of the 111 type
Fe-based superconductor LiFeP with Tc ~ 5 K through the measurement of Knight
shift 31K and the spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 at 31P site by nuclear
magnetic resonance. The constant 31K, small magnitudes of 1/T1T, along with the
resistivity rho ~ T^2 all point to the weak spin correlations in LiFeP. 1/T1T
display small enhancement toward Tc, indicating that the superconductivity is
intimately correlated with the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations.Comment: Accepted for publication in EP
Energy Spectrum Theory of Incommensurate Systems
Due to the lack of the translational symmetry, calculating the energy
spectrum of an incommensurate system has always been a theoretical challenge.
Here, we propose a natural approach to generalize the energy band theory to the
incommensurate systems without reliance on the commensurate approximation, thus
providing a comprehensive energy spectrum theory of the incommensurate systems.
Except for a truncation dependent weighting factor, the formulae of this theory
are formally almost identical to that of the Bloch electrons, making it
particularly suitable for complex incommensurate structures. To illustrate the
application of this theory, we give three typical examples: one-dimensional
bichromatic and trichromatic incommensurate potential model, as well as a
moir\'{e} quasicrystal. Our theory establishes a fundamental framework for
understanding the incommensurate systems.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figure
