CP Measurement in Quantum Teleportation of Neutral Mesons
Quantum teleportation using neutral pseudoscalar mesons shows novel
connections between particle physics and quantum information. The projection
basis, which is crucial in the teleportation process, is determined by the
conservation laws of particle physics, and is different from the Bell basis, as
in the usual case. Here we show that one can verify the teleportation process
by CP measurement. This method significantly simplifies the high energy quantum
teleportation protocol. Especially, it is rigorous, and is independent of
whether CP is violated in weak decays. This method can also be applied to
general verification of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations in particle
physics.Comment: 7 page
Knotlike Cosmic Strings in The Early Universe
In this paper, the knotlike cosmic strings in the Riemann-Cartan space-time
of the early universe are discussed. It has been revealed that the cosmic
strings can just originate from the zero points of the complex scalar
quintessence field. In these strings we mainly study the knotlike
configurations. Based on the integral of Chern-Simons 3-form a topological
invariant for knotlike cosmic strings is constructed, and it is shown that this
invariant is just the total sum of all the self-linking and linking numbers of
the knots family. Furthermore, it is also pointed out that this invariant is
preserved in the branch processes during the evolution of cosmic strings
To wet or not to wet: that is the question
Wetting transitions have been predicted and observed to occur for various
combinations of fluids and surfaces. This paper describes the origin of such
transitions, for liquid films on solid surfaces, in terms of the gas-surface
interaction potentials V(r), which depend on the specific adsorption system.
The transitions of light inert gases and H2 molecules on alkali metal surfaces
have been explored extensively and are relatively well understood in terms of
the least attractive adsorption interactions in nature. Much less thoroughly
investigated are wetting transitions of Hg, water, heavy inert gases and other
molecular films. The basic idea is that nonwetting occurs, for energetic
reasons, if the adsorption potential's well-depth D is smaller than, or
comparable to, the well-depth of the adsorbate-adsorbate mutual interaction. At
the wetting temperature, Tw, the transition to wetting occurs, for entropic
reasons, when the liquid's surface tension is sufficiently small that the free
energy cost in forming a thick film is sufficiently compensated by the fluid-
surface interaction energy. Guidelines useful for exploring wetting transitions
of other systems are analyzed, in terms of generic criteria involving the
"simple model", which yields results in terms of gas-surface interaction
parameters and thermodynamic properties of the bulk adsorbate.Comment: Article accepted for publication in J. Low Temp. Phy
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)
