Radiative Corrections to Democratic Lepton Mixing
A new ansatz of democratic lepton mixing is proposed at the GUT scale and the
radiative corrections to its phenomenological consequences are calculated at
the electroweak scale. We demonstrate that it is possible to obtain the
experimentally favored results for both neutrino masses and lepton flavor
mixing angles from this ansatz, provided the neutrino Yukawa coupling matrix
takes a specific nontrivial pattern. The seesaw threshold effects play a
significant role in the running of relevant physical quantities.Comment: 10 pages (1 table, 2 figures). More discussions added. Phys. Lett. B

Hybrid mesons from anisotropic lattice QCD with the clover and improved gauge actions
We study hybrid mesons from the clover and improved gauge actions at
on the anisotropic lattice using our PC cluster. We
estimate the mass of light quark hybrid as well as the mass of the
charmonium hybrid. The improvement of both quark and gluonic actions, first
applied to the hybrid mesons, is shown to be more efficient in reducing the
lattice spacing and finite volume errors.Comment: Lattice2002 (spectrum
Magic wavelengths for the 6s^2\,^1S_0-6s6p\,^3P_1^o transition in ytterbium atom
The static and dynamic electric-dipole polarizabilities of the 6s^2\,^1S_0
and 6s6p\,^3P_1^o states of Yb are calculated by using the relativistic ab
initio method. Focusing on the red detuning region to the
6s^2\,^1S_0-6s6p\,^3P_1^o transition, we find two magic wavelengths at
1035.7(2) nm and 612.9(2) nm for the 6s^2\,^1S_0-6s6p\,^3P_1^o, M_J=0
transition and three magic wavelengthes at 1517.68(6) nm, 1036.0(3) nm and
858(12) nm for the 6s^2\,^1S_0-6s6p\,^3P_1^o, M_J=\pm1 transitions. Such
magic wavelengths are of particular interest for attaining the
state-insensitive cooling, trapping, and quantum manipulation of neutral Yb
atom.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figure
Exotic mesons from quantum chromodynamics with improved gluon and quark actions on the anisotropic lattice
Hybrid (exotic) mesons, which are important predictions of quantum
chromodynamics (QCD), are states of quarks and anti-quarks bound by excited
gluons. First principle lattice study of such states would help us understand
the role of ``dynamical'' color in low energy QCD and provide valuable
information for experimental search for these new particles. In this paper, we
apply both improved gluon and quark actions to the hybrid mesons, which might
be much more efficient than the previous works in reducing lattice spacing
error and finite volume effect. Quenched simulations were done at
and on a anisotropic lattice using our PC cluster. We
obtain MeV for the mass of the hybrid meson
in the light quark sector, and Mev in the
charm quark sector; the mass splitting between the hybrid meson in the charm quark sector and the spin averaged S-wave charmonium mass
is estimated to be MeV. As a byproduct, we obtain MeV for the mass of a P-wave or
meson and MeV for the mass of a P-wave meson, which are comparable to their experimental value 1426 MeV for the
meson. The first error is statistical, and the second one is
systematical. The mixing of the hybrid meson with a four quark state is also
discussed.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures. Published versio
Net charge fluctuation and string fragmentation
We present simulation results of net charge fluctuation in collisions
at =130 GeV from a dynamic model, JPCIAE. The calculations are
done for the quark-gluon phase before hadronization, the pion gas, the
resonance pion gas from and decays and so on. The simulations
of the charge fluctuation show that the discrepancy exists between the dynamic
model and the thermal model for a pion gas and a resonance pion gas from
and decays while the simulated charge fluctuation of the quark-gluon
phase is close to the thermal model prediction. JPCIAE results of net charge
fluctuation in the hardonic phase are nearly 4-5 times larger than one for the
quark-gluon phase, which implies that the charge fluctuation in the quark-gluon
phase may not survive the hadronization (string fragmentation) as implemented
in JPCIAE.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figure
