    Theoretical analysis of direct CPCP violation and differential decay width in D±π±π+πD^\pm\to \pi^\pm \pi^+\pi^- in phase space around the resonances ρ0(770)\rho^0(770) and f0(500)f_0(500)

    We perform a theoretical study on direct CPCP violation in D±π±π+πD^\pm\to \pi^\pm \pi^+\pi^- in phase space around the intermediate states ρ0(770)\rho^0(770) and f0(500)f_0(500). The possible interference between the amplitudes corresponding to the two resonances is taken into account, and the relative strong phase of the two amplitudes is treated as a free parameter. Our analysis shows that by properly chosen the strong phase, both the CPCP violation strength and differential decay width accommodate to the experimental results.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure

    Remote sensing and optimized neural networks for landslide risk assessment: Paving the way for mitigating Afghanistan landslide damage

    Landslides caused by mega earthquakes and other extreme climate change pose a major threat to lives and infrastructure. However, the lack of a detailed and timely landslide inventory and relevant risk assessment attributable to ongoing conflicts limits the effective prevention measures in Afghanistan. This study presents the first landslide inventory covering the whole nation of Afghanistan from 2015 to the present utilizing Google Earth Pro imagery and manual interpretation. Based on this inventory of 3,260 mapped landslides, we analyzed the distributional characteristics of landslides in Afghanistan and conducted a risk assessment that included landslide susceptibility and hazard, and vulnerability of the bearing areas. The existing regional studies attest to the accuracy and reliability of the inventory, and the results of the risk assessment using the optimized neural network method in this study are well validated. This study can provide a good database for the Afghan government to carry out relevant pre-disaster warnings and post-disaster reconstruction, which can help to delineate hotspots where landslides may occur, and reduce potential economic losses and human casualties from future landslides

    Reconstructing the acoustic far-field using a semi-circular sensor array

    Get PDF
    A method to reconstruct the acoustic far-field using a semi-circular sensor array is proposed. Firstly, the pressures in the acoustic far-field are measured by a semi-circular sensor array; then, the acoustic far-field is reconstructed based on the theory of acoustic radiation modes. The numerical simulations for reconstructing the acoustic far-field of a baffled rectangular plate are conducted. The results show that the acoustic far-field of the baffled rectangular plate can be reconstructed accurately by a few sensors on the semi-circular array. The influence of noise to the reconstruction of acoustic field is analyzed, and the robustness of the proposed method is proved. This paper provides a method for the reconstruction of acoustic far-field through a simple measuring array. The method can be applied to the acoustic field reconstruction of large structures, and has good engineering application prospects

    Nanoclusters like fullerenes as the unit to build intriguing two-dimensional topological structures is of great challenge. Here we propose three bridged fullerene monolayers and comprehensively investigate the novel fullerene monolayer as synthesized experimentally Zheng et al.,[Nature 606, 507-510 (2022)] by state of the art first principles calculations. Our results show that alpha-C60-2D has a direct bandgap of 1.49 eV owing to a flat conduction band bottom close to the experimental value, the optical linear dichroism with strong absorption in long-wave ultraviolet region, a small anisotropic Youngs modulus, the large hole mobility, and the ultrahigh Seebeck coefficient at middle low temperatures. Moreover, Li ions are found to migrate easily along the X path in alpha-C60-2D. It is unveiled that the anisotropic optical, mechanical, electrical, and thermoelectric properties of alpha-C60-2D originate from the asymmetric bridging arrangements between C60 clusters. Our study promises potential applications of monolayer fullerene networks in diverse fields
