Dynamical Computation on Coefficients of Electroweak Chiral Lagrangian from One-doublet and Topcolor-assisted Technicolor Models

Based on previous studies deriving the chiral Lagrangian for pseudo scalar mesons from the first principle of QCD, we derive the electroweak chiral Lagrangian and build up a formulation for computing its coefficients from one-doublet technicolor model and a schematic topcolor-assisted technicolor model. We find that the coefficients of the electroweak chiral Lagrangian for the topcolor-assisted technicolor model are divided into three parts: direct TC2 interaction part, TC1 and TC2 induced effective Z' particle contribution part, and ordinary quarks contribution part. The first two parts are computed in this paper and we show that the direct TC2 interaction part is the same as that in the one-doublet technicolor model, while effective Z' contributions are at least proportional to the p^2 order parameter \beta_1 in the electroweak chiral Lagrangian and typical features of topcolor-assisted technicolor model are that it only allows positive T and U parameters and the T parameter varies in the range 0\sim 1/(25\alpha), the upper bound of T parameter will decrease as long as Z' mass become large. The S parameter can be either positive or negative depending on whether the Z' mass is large or small. The Z' mass is also bounded above and the upper bound depend on value of T parameter. We obtain the values for all the coefficients of the electroweak chiral Lagrangian up to order of p^4.Comment: 52 pages, 15 figure

Observation of an unusual field dependent slow magnetic relaxation and two distinct transitions in a family of new complexes

An unusual field dependent slow magnetic relaxation and two distinct transitions were observed in a family of new rare earth-transition metal complexes, [Ln (bipy) (H$_{2}$O)$_{4}$ M(CN)$_{6}$] $\cdot$1.5 (bipy) $\cdot$ 4H$_{2}$O (bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine; Ln = Gd$^{3+}$,Y$^{3+}$; M = Fe$^{3+}$, Co$^{3+}$). The novel magnetic relaxation, which is quite different from those in normal spin glasses and superparamagnets but very resembles qualitatively those in single-molecule magnet Mn$_{12}$-Ac even if they possess different structures, might be attributed to the presence of frustration that is incrementally unveiled by the external magnetic field. The two distinct transitions in [GdFe] were presumed from DC and AC susceptibility as well as heat capacity measurements.Comment: Revtex, 6 figure

Spin-dependent thermoelectric transport through double quantum dots

We study thermoelectric transport through double quantum dots system with spin-dependent interdot coupling and ferromagnetic electrodes by means of the non-equilibrium Green function in the linear response regime. It is found that the thermoelectric coefficients are strongly dependent on the splitting of interdot coupling, the relative magnetic configurations and the spin polarization of leads. In particular, the thermoelectric efficiency can achieve considerable value in parallel configuration when the effective interdot coupling and tunnel coupling between QDs and the leads for spin-down electrons are small. Moreover, the thermoelectric efficiency increases with the intradot Coulomb interactions increasing and can reach very high value at an appropriate temperature. In the presence of the magnetic field, the spin accumulation in leads strongly suppresses the thermoelectric efficiency and a pure spin thermopower can be obtained.Comment: 5 figure

Parallel momentum distribution of the 28^{28}Si fragments from 29^{29}P

Distribution of the parallel momentum of $^{28}$Si fragments from the breakup of 30.7 MeV/nucleon $^{29}$P has been measured on C targets. The distribution has the FWHM with the value of 110.5 $\pm$ 23.5 MeV/c which is consistent quantitatively with Galuber model calculation assuming by a valence proton in $^{29}$P. The density distribution is also predicted by Skyrme-Hartree-Fock calculation. Results show that there might exist the proton-skin structure in $^{29}$P.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

High Stability Positron Beam Generation Based on Ultra-intense Laser

Relativistic positron beams were generated by laser wakefield electrons bombarding on solid target. Very stable positron beams were generated in our experiments. The total yield of positrons is about 4.4 x 10(8)/shot. The energy spectra of positrons and electrons obey quasi-Maxwell distribution. Compared with the direct method, the indirect method produces positrons (38.5 MeV) and electrons (50.5 MeV) with much higher slope temperature

A proposed reaction channel for the synthesis of the superheavy nucleus Z = 109

We apply a statistical-evaporation model (HIVAP) to calculate the cross sections of superheavy elements, mainly about actinide targets and compare with some available experimental data. A reaction channel $^{30}$Si + $^{243}$Am is proposed for the synthesis of the element Z = 109 and the cross section is estimated.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, 2 tables; two typos are corrected in Ref.

Properties and Performance of Two Wide Field of View Cherenkov/Fluorescence Telescope Array Prototypes

A wide field of view Cherenkov/fluorescence telescope array is one of the main components of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory project. To serve as Cherenkov and fluorescence detectors, a flexible and mobile design is adopted for easy reconfiguring of the telescope array. Two prototype telescopes have been constructed and successfully run at the site of the ARGO-YBJ experiment in Tibet. The features and performance of the telescopes are presented

Total Reaction Cross Section in an Isospin-Dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamics (IDQMD) Model

The isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics (IDQMD) model is used to study the total reaction cross section $\sigma_R$. The energy-dependent Pauli volumes of neutrons and protons have been discussed and introduced into the IDQMD calculation to replace the widely used energy-independent Pauli volumes. The modified IDQMD calculation can reproduce the experimental $\sigma_R$ well for both stable and exotic nuclei induced reactions. Comparisons of the calculated $\sigma_R$ induced by $^{11}Li$ with different initial density distributions have been performed. It is shown that the calculation by using the experimentally deduced density distribution with a long tail can fit the experimental excitation function better than that by using the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock calculated density without long tails. It is also found that $\sigma_R$ at high energy is sensitive to the long tail of density distribution.Comment: 4 page, 4 fig
