Single Z' production at CLIC based on e^- gamma collisions
We analyze the potential of CLIC based on e- gamma collisions to search for
new gauge boson. Single Z' production at e-gamma colliders in two SU(3)_C
X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N models: the minimal model and the model with right-handed
(RH) neutrinos is studied in detail. Results show that new Z' gauge bosons can
be observed at the CLIC, and the cross sections in the model with RH neutrinos
are bigger than those in the minimal one.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures, To appear in JET
Engineering handbook on the atmospheric environmental guidelines for use in wind turbine generator development
The guidelines are given in the form of design criteria relative to wind speed, wind shear, turbulence, wind direction, ice and snow loading, and other climatological parameters which include rain, hail, thermal effects, abrasive and corrosive effects, and humidity. This report is a presentation of design criteria in an engineering format which can be directly input to wind turbine generator design computations. Guidelines are also provided for developing specialized wind turbine generators or for designing wind turbine generators which are to be used in a special region of the United States
Solving the Dirac equation with nonlocal potential by Imaginary Time Step method
The Imaginary Time Step (ITS) method is applied to solve the Dirac equation
with the nonlocal potential in coordinate space by the ITS evolution for the
corresponding Schr\"odinger-like equation for the upper component. It is
demonstrated that the ITS evolution can be equivalently performed for the
Schr\"odinger-like equation with or without localization. The latter algorithm
is recommended in the application for the reason of simplicity and efficiency.
The feasibility and reliability of this algorithm are also illustrated by
taking the nucleus O as an example, where the same results as the
shooting method for the Dirac equation with localized effective potentials are
obtained
A quantitative evaluation of metallic conduction in conjugated polymers
As the periodicity in crystalline materials creates the optimal condition for
electronic delocalization, one might expect that in partially crystalline
conjugated polymers delocalization is impeded by intergrain transport. However,
for the best conducting polymers this presumption fails. Delocalization is
obstructed by interchain rather than intergrain charge transfer and we propose
a model of weakly coupled disordered chains to describe the physics near the
metal-insulator transition. Our quantitative calculations match the outcome of
recent broad-band optical experiments and provide a consistent explanation of
metallic conduction in polymers.Comment: 4 pages incl. 3 figure
Effect of time delay on feedback control of a flashing ratchet
It was recently shown that the use of feedback control can improve the
performance of a flashing ratchet. We investigate the effect of a time delay in
the implementation of feedback control in a closed-loop collective flashing
ratchet, using Langevin dynamics simulations. Surprisingly, for a large
ensemble, a well-chosen delay time improves the ratchet performance by allowing
the system to synchronize into a quasi-periodic stable mode of oscillation that
reproduces the optimal average velocity for a periodically flashing ratchet.
For a small ensemble, on the other hand, finite delay times significantly
reduce the benefit of feedback control for the time-averaged velocity, because
the relevance of information decays on a time scale set by the diffusion time
of the particles. Based on these results, we establish that experimental use of
feedback control is realistic.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures, to appear in Europhysics Letter
Evolution of Nuclear Shell Structure due to the Pion Exchange Potential
The evolution of nuclear shell structure is investigated for the first time
within density-dependent relativistic Hartree-Fock theory and the role of
-exchange potential is studied in detail. The energy differences between
the neutron orbits \Lrb{\nu1h_{9/2},\nu 1i_{13/2}} in the N=82 isotones and
between the proton ones \Lrb{\pi1g_{7/2},\pi1h_{11/2}} in the Z=50 isotopes
are extracted as a function of neutron excess . A kink around for
the N=82 isotones is found as an effect resulting from pion correlations. It is
shown that the inclusion of -coupling plays a central role to provide
realistic isospin dependence of the energy differences. In particular, the
tensor part of the -coupling has an important effect on the characteristic
isospin dependence observed in recent experiments.Comment: 4 pages and 4 figure
Probing neutrino and Higgs sectors in model with lepton-flavor non-universality
The neutrino and Higgs sectors in the \mbox{SU(2)}_1 \times \mbox{SU(2)}_2
\times \mbox{U(1)}_Y model with lepton-flavor non-universality are discussed.
We show that active neutrinos can get Majorana masses from radiative
corrections, after adding only new singly charged Higgs bosons. The mechanism
for generation of neutrino masses is the same as in the Zee models. This also
gives a hint to solving the dark matter problem based on similar ways discussed
recently in many radiative neutrino mass models with dark matter. Except the
active neutrinos, the appearance of singly charged Higgs bosons and dark matter
does not affect significantly the physical spectrum of all particles in the
original model. We indicate this point by investigating the Higgs sector in
both cases before and after singly charged scalars are added into it. Many
interesting properties of physical Higgs bosons, which were not shown
previously, are explored. In particular, the mass matrices of charged and
CP-odd Higgs fields are proportional to the coefficient of triple Higgs
coupling . The mass eigenstates and eigenvalues in the CP-even Higgs
sector are also presented. All couplings of the SM-like Higgs boson to normal
fermions and gauge bosons are different from the SM predictions by a factor
, which must satisfy the recent global fit of experimental data, namely
. We have analyzed a more general diagonalization of gauge boson
mass matrices, then we show that the ratio of the tangents of the and
mixing angles is exactly the cosine of the Weinberg angle, implying that
number of parameters is reduced by 1. Signals of new physics from decays of new
heavy fermions and Higgs bosons at LHC and constraints of their masses are also
discussed.Comment: 40 pages, 1 figure; Journal vesio
Self-interacting dark matter and Higgs bosons in the SU(3)_C x SU(3)_L x U(1)_N model with right-handed neutrinos
We investigate the possibility that dark matter could be made from CP-even
and CP- odd Higgs bosons in the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N (3-3-1) model with
right-handed neutrinos. This self-interacting dark matters are stable without
imposing of new symmetry and should be weak-interacting.Comment: 7 pages, Latex, To appear in Europhys. Let
Rare Kaon Decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu} in SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N Models
The rare kaon decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu} is considered in the
framework of the models based on the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N (3 - 3 - 1)
gauge group. It is shown that a lower bound of the Z' mass in the 3 - 3 - 1
model with right-handed neutrinos at a value of 3 TeV is derived, while that in
the minimal version -- 1.7 TeV.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figure, late
