Analysis of the strong coupling constant and the decay width of with QCD sum rules
In this article, we calculate the form factors and the coupling constant of
the vertex using the three-point QCD sum rules. We
consider the contributions of the vacuum condensates up to dimension in the
operator product expansion(OPE). And all possible off-shell cases are
considered, , and , resulting in three different form
factors. Then we fit the form factors into analytical functions and extrapolate
them into time-like regions, which giving the coupling constant for the
process. Our analysis indicates that the coupling constant for this vertex is
. The results of this work are very useful
in the other phenomenological analysis. As an application, we calculate the
coupling constant for the decay channel and
analyze the width of this decay with the assumption of the vector meson
dominance of the intermediate . Our final result about the decay
width of this decay channel is .Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1501.03088 by other author
Engineering a Conformant Probabilistic Planner
We present a partial-order, conformant, probabilistic planner, Probapop which
competed in the blind track of the Probabilistic Planning Competition in IPC-4.
We explain how we adapt distance based heuristics for use with probabilistic
domains. Probapop also incorporates heuristics based on probability of success.
We explain the successes and difficulties encountered during the design and
implementation of Probapop
The Precise Formula in a Sine Function Form of the norm of the Amplitude and the Necessary and Sufficient Phase Condition for Any Quantum Algorithm with Arbitrary Phase Rotations
In this paper we derived the precise formula in a sine function form of the
norm of the amplitude in the desired state, and by means of he precise formula
we presented the necessary and sufficient phase condition for any quantum
algorithm with arbitrary phase rotations. We also showed that the phase
condition: identical rotation angles, is a sufficient but not a necessary phase
condition.Comment: 16 pages. Modified some English sentences and some proofs. Removed a

Space Alignment Based on Regularized Inversion Precoding in Cognitive Transmission
For a two-tier Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) cognitive network with common receiver, the precoding matrix has a compact relationship with the capacity performance in the unlicensed secondary system. To increase the capacity of secondary system, an improved precoder based on the idea of regularized inversion for secondary transmitter is proposed. An iterative space alignment algorithm is also presented to ensure the Quality of Service (QoS) for primary system. The simulations reveal that, on the premise of achieving QoS for primary system, our proposed algorithm can get larger capacity in secondary system at low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), which proves the effectiveness of the algorithm
Template epitaxial growth of thermoelectric Bi/BiSb superlattice nanowires by charge-controlled pulse electrodeposition

The archival version of this work was published in The Journal of The Electrochemical Society, 156(9), 2009.Bi/BiSb superlattice nanowires (SLNWs) with a controllable and very small bilayer thickness and a sharp segment interface were grown by adopting a charge-controlled pulse electrodeposition. The deposition parameters were optimized to ensure an epitaxial growth of the SLNWs with a preferential orientation. The segment length and bilayer thickness of the SLNWs can be controlled simply by changing the modulating time, and the consistency of the segment length can be well maintained by our approach. The Bravais law in the electrodeposited nanowires is verified by the SLNW structure. The current–voltage measurement shows that the SLNWs have good electrical conductance, particularly those with a smaller bilayer thickness. The Bi/BiSb SLNWs might have excellent thermoelectric performances.National Natural Science Foundation

Cusp Summations and Cusp Relations of Simple Quad Lenses
We review five often used quad lens models, each of which has analytical
solutions and can produce four images at most. Each lens model has two
parameters, including one that describes the intensity of non-dimensional mass
density, and the other one that describes the deviation from the circular lens.
In our recent work, we have found that the cusp and the fold summations are not
equal to 0, when a point source infinitely approaches a cusp or a fold from
inner side of the caustic. Based on the magnification invariant theory, which
states that the sum of signed magnifications of the total images of a given
source is a constant, we calculate the cusp summations for the five lens
models. We find that the cusp summations are always larger than 0 for source on
the major cusps, while can be larger or smaller than 0 for source on the minor
cusps. We also find that if these lenses tend to the circular lens, the major
and minor cusp summations will have infinite values, and with positive and
negative signs respectively. The cusp summations do not change significantly if
the sources are slightly deviated from the cusps. In addition, through the
magnification invariants, we also derive the analytical signed cusp relations
on the axes for three lens models. We find that both on the major and the minor
axes the larger the lenses deviated from the circular lens, the larger the
signed cusp relations. The major cusp relations are usually larger than the
absolute minor cusp relations, but for some lens models with very large
deviation from circular lens, the minor cusp relations can be larger than the
major cusp relations.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in MNRA
Application of an optimization method to high performance propeller designs
The application of an optimization method to determine the propeller blade twist distribution which maximizes propeller efficiency is presented. The optimization employs a previously developed method which has been improved to include the effects of blade drag, camber and thickness. Before the optimization portion of the computer code is used, comparisons of calculated propeller efficiencies and power coefficients are made with experimental data for one NACA propeller at Mach numbers in the range of 0.24 to 0.50 and another NACA propeller at a Mach number of 0.71 to validate the propeller aerodynamic analysis portion of the computer code. Then comparisons of calculated propeller efficiencies for the optimized and the original propellers show the benefits of the optimization method in improving propeller performance. This method can be applied to the aerodynamic design of propellers having straight, swept, or nonplanar propeller blades
