    Coupled-Channel-Induced S−DS-D mixing of Charmonia and Testing Possible Assignments for Y(4260)Y(4260) and Y(4360)Y(4360)

    The mass spectrum and the two-body open-charm decays of the JPC=1−−J^{PC}=1^{--} charmonium states are studied with the coupled-channel effects taken into account. The coupled-channel-induced mixing effects among the excited vector charmonia are studied. Based on our calculations of the masses and the decay widths, we find that the tension between the observed properties of Y(4260)/Y(4360)Y(4260)/Y(4360) and their conventional charmonia interpretations could be softened.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figures, 5 table

    Event patterns extracted from anisotropic spectra of charged particles produced in Pb-Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV

    Event patterns extracted from anisotropic spectra of charged particles produced in lead-lead collisions at 2.76 TeV are investigated. We use an inverse power-law resulted from the QCD calculus to describe the transverse momentum spectrum in the hard scattering process, and a revised Erlang distribution resulted from a multisource thermal model to describe the transverse momentum spectrum and anisotropic flow in the soft excitation process. The pseudorapidity distribution is described by a three-Gaussian function which is a revision of the Landau hydrodynamic model. Thus, the event patterns at the kinetic freeze-out are displayed by the scatter plots of the considered particles in the three-dimensional velocity, momentum, and rapidity spaces.Comment: 19 pages, 8 figures, The European Physical Journal A, accepte
