Constraints on Dark Energy Models Including Gamma Ray Bursts
In this paper we analyze the constraints on the property of dark energy from
cosmological observations. Together with SNe Ia Gold sample, WMAP, SDSS and
2dFGRS data, we include 69 long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) data in our study and
perform global fitting using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique. Dark
energy perturbations are explicitly considered. We pay particular attention to
the time evolution of the equation of state of dark energy parameterized as
with the scale factor of the universe, emphasizing
the complementarity of high redshift GRBs to other cosmological probes. It is
found that the constraints on dark energy become stringent by taking into
account high redshift GRBs, especially for , which delineates the
evolution of dark energy.Comment: 7 pages and 3 figures. Replaced with version accepted for publication

Energy Forecasting with Building Characteristics Analysis
With the installation of smart meters, high resolution building-level energy consumption data become increasingly accessible, which not only provides more accurate data for energy forecasting at the aggregated level but also enables datadriven energy forecasting for individual buildings. On the one hand, individual buildings exhibit high randomness, making the forecasting problem at the building-level more challenging. On the other hand, buildings usually have their own characteristics, therefore such valuable information needs to be considered in the forecast models at the aggregation level. In this paper we investigate how unique characteristics of buildings could affect the performance of forecasting models and aim to identify defining patterns of buildings. The usefulness of the proposed approach is demonstrated using data from three real-world buildings
On the Nature of X(4260)
We study the property of resonance by re-analyzing all experimental
data available, especially the cross section data. The final state
interactions of the , couple channel system are also taken
into account. A sizable coupling between the and is
found. The inclusion of the data indicates a small value of
eV.Comment: Refined analysis with new experimental data included. 13 page
