KN and KbarN Elastic Scattering in the Quark Potential Model
The KN and KbarN low-energy elastic scattering is consistently studied in the
framework of the QCD-inspired quark potential model. The model is composed of
the t-channel one-gluon exchange potential, the s-channel one-gluon exchange
potential and the harmonic oscillator confinement potential. By means of the
resonating group method, nonlocal effective interaction potentials for the KN
and KbarN systems are derived and used to calculate the KN and KbarN elastic
scattering phase shifts. By considering the effect of QCD renormalization, the
contribution of the color octet of the clusters (qqbar) and (qqq) and the
suppression of the spin-orbital coupling, the numerical results are in fairly
good agreement with the experimental data.Comment: 20 pages, 8 figure
Beauty and the Beastly Prime Minister
This essay examines the so-called “turn to beauty” in British fiction since the 1990s as a response to the political and social consequences of Thatcherism. Focusing primarily on four texts—Jonathan Coe’s What a Carve Up! (1994), Julian Barnes’s England, England, (1998), Alan Hollinghurst’s The Line of Beauty (2004), and Zadie Smith’s On Beauty (2005)—this essay argues that conceptions of beauty and beastliness delineate possible boundaries to the neoliberalism with which Thatcherism is associated. Two distinct phases of the beauty/beastliness rhetoric are identified: an ironized utopianism in the 1990s; an ambivalent embrace of global humanism in the 2000s

Closed expression of the interaction kernel in the Bethe-Salpeter equation for quark-antiquark bound states
The interaction kernel in the Bethe-Salpeter equation for quark-antiquark
bound states is derived from the Bethe-Salpeter equations satisfied by the
quark-antiquark four-point Green's function. The latter equations are
established based on the equations of motion obeyed by the quark and antiquark
propagators, the four-point Green's function and some other kinds of Green's
functions which follow directly from the QCD generating functional. The B-S
kernel derived is given an exact and explicit expression which contains only a
few types of Green's functions. This expression is not only convenient for
perturbative calculations, but also suitable for nonperturbative
investigations.Comment: 27 pages,no figure
Classification of finite dimensional modules of singly atypical type over the Lie superalgebras sl(m/n)
We classify the finite dimensional indecomposable sl(m/n)-modules with at
least a typical or singly atypical primitive weight. We do this classification
not only for weight modules, but also for generalized weight modules. We obtain
that such a generalized weight module is simply a module obtained by
``linking'' sub-quotient modules of generalized Kac-modules. By applying our
results to sl(m/1), we have in fact completely classified all finite
dimensional sl(m/1)-modules.Comment: 17 pages, Late
