The Phonon Drag Effect in Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
A variational solution of the coupled electron-phonon Boltzmann equations is
used to calculate the phonon drag contribution to the thermopower in a 1-D
system. A simple formula is derived for the temperature dependence of the
phonon drag in metallic, single-walled carbon nanotubes. Scattering between
different electronic bands yields nonzero values for the phonon drag as the
Fermi level varies.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure
Measurements of J/psi Decays into 2(pi+pi-)eta and 3(pi+pi-)eta
Based on a sample of 5.8X 10^7 J/psi events taken with the BESII detector,
the branching fractions of J/psi--> 2(pi+pi-)eta and J/psi-->3(pi+pi-)eta are
measured for the first time to be (2.26+-0.08+-0.27)X10^{-3} and
(7.24+-0.96+-1.11)X10^{-4}, respectively.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figure
BESII Detector Simulation
A Monte Carlo program based on Geant3 has been developed for BESII detector
simulation. The organization of the program is outlined, and the digitization
procedure for simulating the response of various sub-detectors is described.
Comparisons with data show that the performance of the program is generally
satisfactory.Comment: 17 pages, 14 figures, uses elsart.cls, to be submitted to NIM
Measurement of branching fractions for the inclusive Cabibbo-favored ~K*0(892) and Cabibbo-suppressed K*0(892) decays of neutral and charged D mesons
The branching fractions for the inclusive Cabibbo-favored ~K*0 and
Cabibbo-suppressed K*0 decays of D mesons are measured based on a data sample
of 33 pb-1 collected at and around the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with
the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider. The branching fractions for the
decays D+(0) -> ~K*0(892)X and D0 -> K*0(892)X are determined to be BF(D0 ->
\~K*0X) = (8.7 +/- 4.0 +/- 1.2)%, BF(D+ -> ~K*0X) = (23.2 +/- 4.5 +/- 3.0)% and
BF(D0 -> K*0X) = (2.8 +/- 1.2 +/- 0.4)%. An upper limit on the branching
fraction at 90% C.L. for the decay D+ -> K*0(892)X is set to be BF(D+ -> K*0X)
< 6.6%

events in the upgraded BES II detector at the BEPC. There is a
conspicuous signal for and a peak at higher mass which
may be fitted with . From a combined analysis with

Direct Measurement of the Pseudoscalar Decay Constant fD+
The absolute branching fraction of has been directly
measured by an analysis of a data sample of about 33 collected
around GeV with the BES-II at the BEPC. At these energies,
meson is produced in pair as . A total of mesons are reconstructed from this data set. In the
recoil side of the tagged mesons, purely leptonic decay
events of are observed. This yields a branching fraction of

corresponding pseudoscalar decay constant

Measurements of K-shell ionization cross sections of Fe, Ni, and Zn by 7â29 keV electron impact using the thick-target method
The measurements of K-shell ionization cross sections for Fe, Ni and Zn elements were performed using 7-29 keV electron impact on the thick targets. The Monte Carlo simulations were employed to correct the effects due to the multiple-scattered electrons and bremsstrahlung photons as well as other secondary particles within the thick targets. The so-called Tikhonov regularization method was adopted to deal with the ill-posed inverse problem involved in the thick-target method. The experimental results were compared with the DWBA and PWBA- C-Ex predictions as well as existing experimental data from the literature. It has been observed that our experimental data is in better agreement with the theoretical results based on the DWBA model developed by Bote et al.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.
