Production rates for hadrons, pentaquarks and , and di-baryon in relativistic heavy ion collisions by a quark combination model
The hadron production in relativistic heavy ion collisions is well described
by the quark combination model. The mixed ratios for various hadrons and the
transverse momentum spectra for long-life hadrons are predicted and agree with
recent RHIC data. The production rates for the pentaquarks , and the di-baryon are estimated, neglecting
the effect from the transition amplitude for constituent quarks to form an
exotic state.Comment: The difference between our model and other combination models is
clarified. The scaled transverse momentum spectra for pions, kaons and
protoms at both 130 AGeV and 200 AGeV are given, replacing the previous
results in transverse momentum spectr
Orientation and strain modulated electronic structures in puckered arsenene nanoribbons
Orthorhombic arsenene was recently predicted as an indirect bandgap
semiconductor. Here, we demonstrate that nanostructuring arsenene into
nanoribbons can successfully transform the bandgap to be direct. It is found
that direct bandgaps hold for narrow armchair but wide zigzag nanoribbons,
which is dominated by the competition between the in-plane and out-of-plane
bondings. Moreover, straining the nanoribbons also induces a direct bandgap and
simultaneously modulates effectively the transport property. The gap energy is
largely enhanced by applying tensile strains to the armchair structures. In the
zigzag ones, a tensile strain makes the effective mass of holes much higher
while a compressive strain cause it much lower than that of electrons. Our
results are crutial to understand and engineer the electronic properties of two
dimensional materials beyond the planar ones like graphene
Kosterlitz-Thouless Transition and Short Range Spatial Correlations in an Extended Hubbard Model
We study the competition between intersite and local correlations in a
spinless two-band extended Hubbard model by taking an alternative limit of
infinite dimensions. We find that the intersite density fluctuations suppress
the charge Kondo energy scale and lead to a Fermi liquid to non-Fermi liquid
transition for repulsive on-site density-density interactions. In the absence
of intersite interactions, this transition reduces to the known
Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. We show that a new line of non-Fermi liquid
fixed points replace those of the zero intersite interaction problem.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figure
Extended Calculations of Spectroscopic Data: Energy Levels, Lifetimes and Transition rates for O-like ions from Cr XVII to Zn XXIII
Employing two state-of-the-art methods, multiconfiguration
Dirac--Hartree--Fock and second-order many-body perturbation theory, the
excitation energies and lifetimes for the lowest 200 states of the ,
, , , , , , , and configurations, and multipole (electric
dipole (E1), magnetic dipole (M1), and electric quadrupole (E2)) transition
rates, line strengths, and oscillator strengths among these states are
calculated for each O-like ion from Cr XVII to Zn XXIII. Our two data sets are
compared with the NIST and CHIANTI compiled values, and previous calculations.
The data are accurate enough for identification and deblending of new emission
lines from the sun and other astrophysical sources. The amount of data of high
accuracy is significantly increased for the states of several O-like
ions of astrophysics interest, where experimental data are very scarce
Response to comments on "Differential Sensitivity to Human Communication in Dogs, Wolves, and Human Infants."
The comments by Fiset and Marshall-Pescini et al. raise important methodological issues and propose alternative accounts for our finding of perseverative search errors in dogs. Not denying that attentional processes and local enhancement are involved in such object search tasks, we provide here new evidence and argue that dogsâ behavior is affected by a combination of factors, including specific susceptibility to human communicative signals
Theory for superconductivity in (Tl,K)FeSe as a doped Mott insulator
Possible superconductivity in recently discovered (Tl,K)FeSe
compounds is studied from the viewpoint of doped Mott insulator. The Mott
insulating phase is examined to be preferred in the parent compound at
due to the presence of Fe vacancies. Partial filling of vacancies at the
Fe-sites introduces electron carriers and leads to electron doped
superconductivity. By using a two-orbital Hubbard model in the strong coupling
limit, we find that the s-wave pairing is more favorable at small Hund's
coupling, and d wave pairing is more favorable at large Hund's
coupling.Comment: 4+ pages, 3 figures, to appear in EP
Extended calculations of energy levels, radiative properties, , hyperfine interaction constants, and Land\'e -factors for nitrogen-like \mbox{Ge XXVI}
Employing two state-of-the-art methods, multiconfiguration
Dirac--Hartree--Fock and second-order many-body perturbation theory, highly
accurate calculations are performed for the lowest 272 fine-structure levels
arising from the , , , ~(), (), and ()
configurations in nitrogen-like Ge XXVI. Complete and consistent atomic data,
including excitation energies, lifetimes, wavelengths, hyperfine structures,
Land\'e -factors, and E1, E2, M1, M2 line strengths, oscillator
strengths, and transition rates among these 272 levels are provided.
Comparisons are made between the present two data sets, as well as with other
available experimental and theoretical values. The present data are accurate
enough for identification and deblending of emission lines involving the
levels, and are also useful for modeling and diagnosing fusion plasmas
