Two-Higgs-Doublet-Models and Radiative CP Violation
We discuss the feasibility of spontaneous CP violation being induced by
radiative corrections in 2HDM's. Specifically, we analyze the cases of
gaugino/higgsino effect on MSSM, and a new model with an extra exotic quark
doublet. The new model, while demonstrating well the Georgi-Pais theorem, is
also expected to be phenomenlogically interesting.Comment: 8 pages + cover, 3 figures incoporated, in latex with aipproc.sty

Massive Overlap Fermions on Anisotropic Lattices
We formulate the massive overlap fermions on anisotropic lattices.
We find that the dispersion relation for the overlap fermion resembles the
continuum form in the low-momentum region once the bare parameters are properly
tuned. The quark self-energy and the quark field renormalization constants are
calculated to one-loop in bare lattice perturbation theory.
We argue that massive domain wall quarks might be helpful in lattice QCD
studies on heavy-light hadron spectroscopy.Comment: 21 pages, 5 figures, one reference added compared with v.
Global behavior of cosmological dynamics with interacting Veneziano ghost
In this paper, we shall study the dynamical behavior of the universe
accelerated by the so called Veneziano ghost dark energy component locally and
globally by using the linearization and nullcline method developed in this
paper. The energy density is generalized to be proportional to the Hawking
temperature defined on the trapping horizon instead of Hubble horizon of the
Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe. We also give a prediction of the
fate of the universe and present the bifurcation phenomenon of the dynamical
system of the universe. It seems that the universe could be dominated by dark
energy at present in some region of the parameter space.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures, accepted for publication in JHE
Probing Half-odd Topological Number with Cold Atoms in a Non-Abelian Optical Lattice
We propose an experimental scheme to probe the contribution of a single Dirac
cone to the Hall conductivity as half-odd topological number sequence. In our
scheme, the quantum anomalous Hall effect as in graphene is simulated with cold
atoms trapped in an optical lattice and subjected to a laser-induced
non-Abelian gauge field. By tuning the laser intensity to change the gauge
flux, the energies of the four Dirac points in the first Brillouin zone are
shifted with each other and the contribution of the single Dirac cone to the
total atomic Hall conductivity is manifested. We also show such manifestation
can be experimentally probed with atomic density profile measurements.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Cavity QED treatment of scattering-induced efficient free-space excitation and collection in high-Q whispering-gallery microcavities
Whispering-gallery microcavity laser possesses ultralow threshold, whereas
convenient free-space optical excitation and collection suffer from low
efficiencies due to its rotational symmetry. Here we analytically study a
three-dimensional microsphere coupled to a nano-sized scatterer in the
framework of quantum optics. It is found that the scatterer is capable of
coupling light in and out of the whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) without
seriously degrading their high-Q properties, while the microsphere itself plays
the role of a lens to focus the input beam on the scatterer and vice versa. Our
analytical results show that (1) the high-Q WGMs can be excited in free space,
and (2) over 50% of the microcavity laser emission can be collected within less
than . This coupling system holds great potential for low
threshold microlasers free of external couplers.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figure
