Analysis of Two-Body Decays of Charmed Baryons Using the Quark-Diagram Scheme
We give a general formulation of the quark-diagram scheme for the nonleptonic
weak decays of baryons. We apply it to all the decays of the antitriplet and
sextet charmed baryons and express their decay amplitudes in terms of the
quark-diagram amplitudes. We have also given parametrizations for the effects
of final-state interactions. For SU(3) violation effects, we only parametrize
those in the horizontal -loop quark diagrams whose contributions are solely
due to SU(3)-violation effects. In the absence of all these effects, there are
many relations among various decay modes. Some of the relations are valid even
in the presence of final-state interactions when each decay amplitude in the
relation contains only a single phase shift. All these relations provide useful
frameworks to compare with future experiments and to find out the effects of
final-state interactions and SU(3) symmetry violations.Comment: 28 pages, 20 Tables in landscape form, 4 figures. Main changes are:

Analysis of two-body decays of charmed baryons using the quark-diagram scheme
We give a general formulation of the quark diagram scheme for the nonleptonic weak decays of baryons. We apply it to all decays of the antitriplet and sextet charmed baryons and express their decay amplitudes in terms of the quark-diagram amplitudes, including the effects of final-state interactions. (We also point out the mistaken results in the literature.) We obtain many relations among various decay modes. It will be interesting to test them in future experiments
Exclusive Hadronic D Decays to eta' and eta
Hadronic decay modes and
are studied in the generalized
factorization approach. Form factors for transitions
are carefully evaluated by taking into account the wave function normalization
of the eta and eta'. The predicted branching ratios are generally in agreement
with experiment except for and
; the calculated decay rates for the first two decay modes
are too small by an order of magnitude. We show that the weak decays and followed by resonance-induced final-state
interactions (FSI), which are amenable technically, are able to enhance the
branching ratios of and dramatically
without affecting the agreement between theory and experiment for and . We argue that it is difficult to understand
the observed large decay rates of and
simultaneously; FSI, W-annihilation and the production of excess eta' from
gluons are not helpful in this regard. The large discrepancy between the
factorization hypothesis and experiment for the ratio of
and remains as an enigma.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure, to appear in Phys. Rev. D. Form factors for D to

Flavor SU(3) symmetry and QCD factorization in and decays
Using flavor SU(3) symmetry, we perform a model-independent analysis of
charmless decays. All the relevant
topological diagrams, including the presumably subleading diagrams, such as the
QCD- and EW-penguin exchange diagrams and flavor-singlet weak annihilation
ones, are introduced. Indeed, the QCD-penguin exchange diagram turns out to be
important in understanding the data for penguin-dominated decay modes. In this
work we make efforts to bridge the (model-independent but less quantitative)
topological diagram or flavor SU(3) approach and the (quantitative but somewhat
model-dependent) QCD factorization (QCDF) approach in these decays, by
explicitly showing how to translate each flavor SU(3) amplitude into the
corresponding terms in the QCDF framework. After estimating each flavor SU(3)
amplitude numerically using QCDF, we discuss various physical consequences,
including SU(3) breaking effects and some useful SU(3) relations among decay
amplitudes of and .Comment: 47 pages, 3 figures, 28 table
Relation Between Quantum Speed Limits And Metrics On U(n)
Recently, Chau [Quant. Inform. & Comp. 11, 721 (2011)] found a family of
metrics and pseudo-metrics on -dimensional unitary operators that can be
interpreted as the minimum resources (given by certain tight quantum speed
limit bounds) needed to transform one unitary operator to another. This result
is closely related to the weighted -norm on . Here we
generalize this finding by showing that every weighted -norm on
with 1\le p \le \limitingp induces a metric and a
pseudo-metric on -dimensional unitary operators with quantum
information-theoretic meanings related to certain tight quantum speed limit
bounds. Besides, we investigate how far the correspondence between the
existence of metrics and pseudo-metrics of this type and the quantum speed
limits can go.Comment: minor amendments, 6 pages, to appear in J.Phys.

Design and loss analysis of a new self-decelerating PM in-wheel motor
This paper proposed a new self-decelerating PM in-wheel motor (SDPMIWM) which replaces the stationary ring of the conventional magnetic-geared motor with the stator teeth and is magnetized in Halbach Array. Unlike the traditional PM synchronous motors, the SDPMIWM operates on the harmonics. The field is full of harmonic components and the flux waveforms in the motor can be complex. All these makes calculating the motor loss difficult. Thus, this paper study the field distribution of the motor, including harmonic analysis, magnetization in key positions of stator and rotor, and end effect in the motor including its influence in motor's performances. Then, the hysteresis and eddy current loss in stator and rotor are analyzed. Furthermore, the eddy current loss in the PMs is also investigated and the potential over-heating points are specified, making contributions to motor optimization. Besides, the radial magnetized motor with the same structure as the SDPMIWM is also analyzed to verify the advantages of the Halbach Array in improving the strength of magnetic field and the quality of flux waveforms, and in reducing end effect's influence in motor's performances. © 2014 IEEE.published_or_final_versio
Analytical calculation of magnetic field in surface-inset permanent magnet motors
This paper presents an analytical approach to calculate the magnetic field distribution in surface-inset permanent magnet motors. A series-slot analytical model is newly proposed to describe the magnetic field behavior by a set of partial differential equations in terms of scalar magnetic potentials. The field solutions are determined by considering the boundary constraints. Then, the cogging torque characteristic is deduced by calculating the Maxwell tensors. The accuracy of the proposed analytical calculation is verified by comparing the field distribution and cogging torque results with those obtained from the finite element method. © 2009 IEEE.published_or_final_versio
Implications of Recent Measurements
The recent measurements of the color-suppressed modes imply non-vanishing relative final-state interaction (FSI)
phases among various decay amplitudes. Depending on whether or
not FSIs are implemented in the topological quark-diagram amplitudes, two
solutions for the parameters and are extracted from data using
various form-factor models. It is found that is not universal:
and with a relative phase
of order between and . If FSIs are not included in
quark-diagram amplitudes from the outset, and
will become smaller. The large value of compared to
or naive expectation implies the importance of
long-distance FSI contributions to color-suppressed internal -emission via
final-state rescatterings of the color-allowed tree amplitude.Comment: 17 pages. The Introduction is substantially revised and the order of

Micro-stepping control of ultrasonic stepping motors
The ultrasonic stepping motor (USSM) using spatially shifted standing vibrations shows the advantages of high torque, good controllability and open-loop operation. Due to the segmentation problem of piezoelectric materials, the corresponding step size is practically limited. The purpose of this paper is to propose and implement micro-stepping control of this USSM. Different from the available half-step operation, the proposed control simultaneously varies both the combination of phase excitations and the magnitude of applied voltages in such a way that the desired step size can be attained. Digital implementation and experimental verification are given to validate the proposed micro-stepping control.published_or_final_versio
