Derivation of Covariant Dissipative Fluid Dynamics in the Renormalization-group Method

We derive generic relativistic hydrodynamical equations with dissipative effects from the underlying Boltzmann equation in a mechanical and systematic way on the basis of so called the renormalization-group (RG) method. A macroscopic frame vector is introduced to specify the frame on which the macroscopic dynamics is described. Our method is so mechanical with only few ansatz that our method give a microscopic foundation of the available hydrodynamical equations, and also can be applied to make a reduction of the kinetic equations other than the simple Boltzmann equation.Comment: Serious typos and a minor one are corrected in p.6 and 7, and in p.1, respectivel

Lepton Flavour Violation at an electron-photon collider

We study the LFV Higgs production processes e−γ → l�− ϕ (�l = μ, τ ; ϕ = H,A) as a probe of Higgs-mediated LFV couplings at an electron-photon collider, where H and A are extra CP even and odd Higgs bosons, respectively, in the two Higgs doublet model. Under the constraints from the current data of muon and tau rare decay, the cross-section can be significantly large. It would improve the experimental upper bounds on the effective LFV coupling constants. In addition, the chirality nature of the LFV Higgs coupling constants can be measured by selecting electron beam polarizations

Higgs boson pair production in new physics models at hadron, lepton, and photon colliders

We discuss Higgs boson pair production processes at future hadron and lepton colliders including the photon collision option in several new physics models, i.e. the two-Higgs-doublet model, the scalar leptoquark model, the sequential fourth-generation fermion model and the vectorlike quark model. Cross sections for these processes can differ significantly from the standard model predictions, due to the nondecoupling effect in the triple Higgs boson coupling constant. For the one-loop induced processes such as gg → hh and γγ → hh, new physics particles can mediate in a loop diagram, which can affect cross sections. Measurements of the Higgs boson pair production processes can be useful not only to test the standard model but also to explore new physics models

Survival of charmonia above Tc in anisotropic lattice QCD

We find a strong evidence for the survival of $J/\Psi$ and $\eta_c$ as spatially-localized $c\bar c$ (quasi-)bound states above the QCD critical temperature $T_c$, by investigating the boundary-condition dependence of their energies and spectral functions. In a finite-volume box, there arises a boundary-condition dependence for spatially spread states, while no such dependence appears for spatially compact states. In lattice QCD, we find almost {\it no} spatial boundary-condition dependence for the energy of the $c\bar c$ system in $J/\Psi$ and $\eta_c$ channels for $T\simeq(1.11-2.07)T_c$. We also investigate the spectral function of charmonia above $T_c$ in lattice QCD using the maximum entropy method (MEM) in terms of the boundary-condition dependence. There is {\it no} spatial boundary-condition dependence for the low-lying peaks corresponding to $J/\Psi$ and $\eta_c$ around 3GeV at $1.62T_c$. These facts indicate the survival of $J/\Psi$ and $\eta_c$ as compact $c\bar c$ (quasi-)bound states for $T_c < T < 2T_c$.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur
