Decays of J/ψJ/\psi and ψ′\psi^\prime into vector and pseudoscalar meson and the pseudoscalar glueball-qqˉq\bar{q} mixing

We introduce a parametrization scheme for $J/\psi(\psi^\prime)\to VP$ where the effects of SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking and doubly OZI-rule violation (DOZI) can be parametrized by certain parameters with explicit physical interpretations. This scheme can be used to clarify the glueball-$q\bar{q}$ mixing within the pseudoscalar mesons. We also include the contributions from the electromagnetic (EM) decays of $J/\psi$ and $\psi^\prime$ via $J/\psi(\psi^\prime)\to \gamma^*\to VP$. Via study of the isospin violated channels, such as $J/\psi(\psi^\prime)\to \rho\eta$, $\rho\eta^\prime$, $\omega\pi^0$ and $\phi\pi^0$, reasonable constraints on the EM decay contributions are obtained. With the up-to-date experimental data for $J/\psi(\psi^\prime)\to VP$, $J/\psi(\psi^\prime)\to \gamma P$ and $P\to \gamma\gamma$, etc, we arrive at a consistent description of the mentioned processes with a minimal set of parameters. As a consequence, we find that there exists an overall suppression of the $\psi^\prime\to 3g$ form factors, which sheds some light on the long-standing "$\rho\pi$ puzzle". By determining the glueball components inside the pseudoscalar $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ in three different glueball-$q\bar{q}$ mixing schemes, we deduce that the lowest pseudoscalar glueball, if exists, has rather small $q\bar{q}$ component, and it makes the $\eta(1405)$ a preferable candidate for $0^{-+}$ glueball.Comment: Revised version to appear on J.

Creation and control of a two-dimensional electron liquid at the bare SrTiO3 surface

Many-body interactions in transition-metal oxides give rise to a wide range of functional properties, such as high-temperature superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance, or multiferroicity. The seminal recent discovery of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the interface of the insulating oxides LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 represents an important milestone towards exploiting such properties in all-oxide devices. This conducting interface shows a number of appealing properties, including a high electron mobility, superconductivity, and large magnetoresistance and can be patterned on the few-nanometer length scale. However, the microscopic origin of the interface 2DEG is poorly understood. Here, we show that a similar 2DEG, with an electron density as large as 8x10^13 cm^-2, can be formed at the bare SrTiO3 surface. Furthermore, we find that the 2DEG density can be controlled through exposure of the surface to intense ultraviolet (UV) light. Subsequent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements reveal an unusual coexistence of a light quasiparticle mass and signatures of strong many-body interactions.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figures, supplementary information (see other files

Hidden one-dimensional electronic structure and non-Fermi liquid angle resolved photoemission line shapes of η\eta-Mo4_4O11_{11}

We report angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) spectra of $\eta$-Mo$_4$O$_{11}$, a layered metal that undergoes two charge density wave (CDW) transitions at 109 K and 30 K. We have directly observed the ``hidden one-dimensional (hidden-1d)'' Fermi surface and an anisotropic gap opening associated with the 109 K transition, in agreement with the band theoretical description of the CDW transition. In addition, as in other hidden-1d materials such as NaMo$_6$O$_{17}$, the ARPES line shapes show certain anomalies, which we discuss in terms of non-Fermi liquid physics and possible roles of disorder.Comment: 3 figures; Erratum added to include missed reference

Crossover from Percolation to Self-Organized Criticality

We include immunity against fire as a new parameter into the self-organized critical forest-fire model. When the immunity assumes a critical value, clusters of burnt trees are identical to percolation clusters of random bond percolation. As long as the immunity is below its critical value, the asymptotic critical exponents are those of the original self-organized critical model, i.e. the system performs a crossover from percolation to self-organized criticality. We present a scaling theory and computer simulation results.Comment: 4 pages Revtex, two figures included, to be published in PR

Extracting the spectral function of the cuprates by a full two-dimensional analysis: Angle-resolved photoemission spectra of Bi2Sr2CuO6

Recently, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) has revealed a dispersion anomaly at high binding energy near 0.3-0.5eV in various families of the high-temperature superconductors. For further studies of this anomaly we present a new two-dimensional fitting-scheme and apply it to high-statistics ARPES data of the strongly-overdoped Bi2Sr2CuO6 cuprate superconductor. The procedure allows us to extract theself-energy in an extended energy and momentum range. It is found that the spectral function of Bi2Sr2CuO6 can be parameterized using a small set of tight-binding parameters and a weakly-momentum-dependent self-energy up to 0.7 eV in binding energy and over the entire first Brillouin zone. Moreover the analysis gives an estimate of the momentum dependence of the matrix element, a quantity, which is often neglected in ARPES analyses.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure

Doping dependence of the (π,π)(\pi,\pi) shadow band in La-based cuprates studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy

The $(\pi,\pi)$ shadow band (SB) in La-based cuprate family (La214) was studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) over a wide doping range from $x=0.01$ to $x=0.25$. Unlike the well-studied case of the Bi-based cuprate family, an overall strong, monotonic doping dependence of the SB intensity at the Fermi level ($E_F$) was observed. In contrast to a previous report for the presence of the SB only close to $x=1/8$, we found it exists in a wide doping range, associated with a doping-independent $(\pi,\pi)$ wave vector but strongly doping-dependent intensity: It is the strongest at $x\sim 0.03$ and systematically diminishes as the doping increases until it becomes negligible in the overdoped regime. This SB with the observed doping dependence of intensity can in principle be caused by the antiferromagnetic fluctuations or a particular form of low-temperature orthorhombic lattice distortion known to persist up to $x\sim 0.21$ in the system, with both being weakened with increasing doping. However, a detailed binding energy dependent analysis of the SB at $x=0.07$ does not appear to support the former interpretation, leaving the latter as a more plausible candidate, despite a challenge in quantitatively linking the doping dependences of the SB intensity and the magnitude of the lattice distortion. Our finding highlights the necessity of a careful and global consideration of the inherent structural complications for correctly understanding the cuprate Fermiology and its microscopic implication.Comment: Note the revised conclusion and author list; To appear in New J.

Hydrodynamic characteristics of wing-in-ground effect oscillating hydrofoilon power extraction performance

The energy contained in the tidal motion of the seas and oceans has the potential to be a significant source ofrenewable energy. The oscillating hydrofoil current-energy turbine has a good performance to extract energyfrom the coupling of its heaving and pitching motions. In the present study, the wing-in-ground (WIG) effect hasbeen considered to improve the power-extraction performance of the oscillating hydrofoils. The overset grid inthe commercial computational fluid dynamic (CFD) software STAR CCM+ is applied to study the flapping hydrofoilwith dynamic WIG effect between two hydrofoils. The simulation results show that the WIG effect cangreatly improve the power extraction performance of the flapping hydrofoil. The WIG effect is asymmetric overthe course of the foil moving toward or leaving from the symmetry plane. The distance of the gap has a majorinfluence on the hydrodynamic performances of the flapping hydrofoil. For a moderate gap, the positive pressureon the lower surface enhances as the hydrofoil departs from the symmetry plane and causes an improvement oflift and moment coefficients. As the gap decreases further, the increasing negative pressure between the leadingedge and the symmetry plane plays an essential role improving the power extraction as the hydrofoil approachesthe symmetry plane. Compared to the case without the WIG effect, the power-extraction efficiency has anincrement of 16.34% in the present study

Pointhuman: Reconstructing Clothed Human From Point Cloud Of Parametric Model

It is very difficult to accomplish the 3D reconstruction of the clothed human body from a single RGB image, because the 2D image lacks the representation information of the 3D human body, especially for the clothed human body. In order to solve this problem, we introduced a priority scheme of different body parts spatial information and proposed PointHuman network. PointHuman combines the spatial feature of the parametric model of the human body with the implicit functions without expressive restrictions. In PointHuman reconstruction framework, we use Point Transformer to extract the semantic spatial feature of the parametric model of the human body to regularize the implicit function of the neural network, which extends the generalization ability of the neural network to complex human poses and various styles of clothing. Moreover, considering the ambiguity of depth information, we estimate the depth of the parameterized model after point cloudization, and obtain an offset depth value. The offset depth value improves the consistency between the parameterized model and the neural implicit function, and accuracy of human reconstruction models. Finally, we optimize the restoration of the parametric model from a single image, and propose a depth perception method. This method further improves the estimation accuracy of the parametric model and finally improves the effectiveness of human reconstruction. Our method achieves competitive performance on the THuman dataset.Shenzhen Science and Technology Projects under Grant JCYJ20200109143035495 and Natural Science Foundation of Fujian Province (2022J011275)
