Finite Temperature Phase Diagram in Rotating Bosonic Optical Lattice

Finite temperature phase boundary between superfluid phase and normal state is analytically derived by studying the stability of normal state in rotating bosonic optical lattice. We also prove that the oscillation behavior of critical hopping matrix directly follows the upper boundary of Hofstadter butterfly as the function of effective magnetic field.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure

Analysis of the X(1576) as a tetraquark state with the QCD sum rules

In this letter, we take the point of view that the X(1576) be tetraquark state which consists of a scalar-diquark and an anti-scalar-diquark in relative $P$-wave, and calculate its mass in the framework of the QCD sum rules approach. The numerical value of the mass $m_X=(1.66\pm 0.14) GeV$ is consistent with the experimental data, there may be some tetraquark component in the vector meson X(1576).Comment: 6 pages, 1 figure, second version, typos correcte

Scalar form-factor of the proton with light-cone QCD sum rules

In this article, we calculate the scalar form-factor of the proton in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach with the three valence quark light-cone distribution amplitudes up to twist-6, and observe the scalar form-factor $\sigma(t=-Q^2)$ at intermediate and large momentum transfers $Q^2> 2GeV^2$ has significant contributions from the end-point (or soft) terms. The numerical values for the $\sigma(t=-Q^2)$ are compatible with the calculations from the chiral quark model and lattice QCD at the region $Q^2>2GeV^2$.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figures, revised versio

Novel Microfiber Sensor and Its Biosensing Application for Detection of hCG Based on a Singlemode-Tapered Hollow Core-Singlemode Fiber Structure

A novel microfiber sensor is proposed and demonstrated based on a singlemode-tapered hollow core -singlemode (STHS) fiber structure. Experimentally a STHS with taper waist diameter of 26.5 μm has been fabricated and RI sensitivity of 816, 1601.86, and 4775.5 nm/RIU has been achieved with RI ranges from 1.3335 to 1.3395 , from 1.369 to 1.378, and from 1.409 to 1.4175 respectively, which agrees very well with simulated RI sensitivity of 885, 1517, and 4540 nm/RIU at RI ranges from 1.3335 to 1.337, from 1.37 to 1.374, and from 1.41 to 1.414 . The taper waist diameter has impact on both temperature and strain sensitivity of the sensor structure: (1) the smaller the waist diameter, the higher the temperature sensitivity, and experimentally 26.82 pm/°C has been achieved with a taper waist diameter of 21.4 μm; (2) as waist diameter decrease, strain sensitivity increase and 7.62 pm/με has been achieved with a taper diameter of 20.3 μm. The developed sensor was then functionalized for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) detection as an example for biosensing application. Experimentally for hCG concentration of 5 mIU/ml, the sensor has 0.5 nm wavelength shift, equivalent to limit of detection (LOD) of 0.6 mIU/ml by defining 3 times of the wavelength variation (0.06 nm) as measurement limit. The biosensor demonstrated relatively good reproducibility and specificity, which has potential for real medical diagnostics and other applications

Dynamical symmetry breaking, confinement with flat-bottom potential

In this article, we calculate the dressed quark propagator with the flat bottom potential in the framework of the rain-bow Schwinger-Dyson equation. Then based on the nonperturbative dressed quark propagator, we calculate the $\pi$ decay constant and the quark condensate. The $\pi$ decay constant is an important parameter in describing the interplay between dynamical symmetry breaking and confinement, while the quark condensate is an order parameter for dynamical chiral symmetry breaking. To implement confinement, we prove that the dressed quark propagator has no poles on the real timelike $p^2$ axial, the absence of Kallen-Lehmann spectral representation obviously precludes the existence of free quarks.Comment: 10 pages,3 figure

Decay constants of the pseudoscalar mesons in the framework of the coupled Schwinger-Dyson equation and Bethe-Salpeter equation

In this article, we investigate the structures of the pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi$, $K$, $D$, $D_s$, $B$ and $B_s$) in the framework of the coupled rainbow Schwinger-Dyson equation and ladder Bethe-Salpeter equation with the confining effective potential (infrared modified flat bottom potential). The Schwinger-Dyson functions for the $u$, $d$ and $s$ quarks are greatly renormalized at small momentum region and the curves are steep at about $q^2=1GeV^2$ which indicates an explicitly dynamical symmetry breaking. The Euclidean time fourier transformed quark propagators have no mass poles in the time-like region which naturally implements confinement. As for the $c$ and $b$ quarks, the current masses are very large, the renormalization are more tender, however, mass poles in the time-like region are also absent. The Bethe-Salpeter wavefunctions for those mesons have the same type (Gaussian type) momentum dependence and center around small momentum which indicate that the bound states exist in the infrared region. The decay constants for those pseudoscalar mesons are compatible with the values of experimental extractions and theoretical calculations, such as lattice simulations and QCD sum rules.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, Revised Versio

Ds0(2317)D_{s0}(2317) as a tetraquark state with QCD sum rules in heavy quark limit

In this article, we take the point of view that the charmed scalar meson $D_{s0}(2317)$ be a tetraquark state and devote to calculate its mass within the framework of the QCD sum rules approach in the heavy quark limit. The numerical values for the mass of the $D_{s0}(2317)$ are consistent with the experimental data, there must be some tetraquark component in the scalar meson $D_{s0}(2317)$. Detailed discussions about the threshold parameter and Borel parameter for the multiquark states are also presented.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure, third versio

Magnetic moment of the pentaquark Θ+(1540)\Theta^+(1540) with light-cone QCD sum rules

In this article, we study the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $\Theta^+(1540)$ as diquark-diquark-antiquark ($[ud][ud]\bar{s}$) state in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach. The numerical results indicate the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state $\Theta^+(1540)$ is about $\mu_{\Theta^+}=-(0.49\pm 0.06)\mu_N$.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure.
