Unparticle physics and lepton flavor violating radion decays in the Randall-Sundrum scenario
We predict the branching ratios of the lepton flavor violating radion decays
r -> e^{\pm} \mu^{\pm}, r -> e^{\pm} \tau^{\pm} and r ->\mu^{\pm} \tau^{\pm} in
the framework of the Randall-Sundrum scenario that the lepton flavor violation
is carried by the scalar unparticle mediation. We observe that their BRs are
strongly sensitive to the unparticle scaling dimension and, for its small
values, the branching ratios can reach to the values of the order of 10^{-8},
for the heavy lepton flavor case.Comment: 21 pages, 11 Figures, 1 Tabl

Partial Wave Analysis of
BES data on are presented. The
contribution peaks strongly near threshold. It is fitted with a
broad resonance with mass MeV, width MeV. A broad resonance peaking at 2020 MeV is also required
with width MeV. There is further evidence for a component
peaking at 2.55 GeV. The non- contribution is close to phase
space; it peaks at 2.6 GeV and is very different from .Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures, 1 table, Submitted to PL
A Measurement of Psi(2S) Resonance Parameters
Cross sections for e+e- to hadons, pi+pi- J/Psi, and mu+mu- have been
measured in the vicinity of the Psi(2S) resonance using the BESII detector
operated at the BEPC. The Psi(2S) total width; partial widths to hadrons,
pi+pi- J/Psi, muons; and corresponding branching fractions have been determined
to be Gamma(total)= (264+-27) keV; Gamma(hadron)= (258+-26) keV, Gamma(mu)=
(2.44+-0.21) keV, and Gamma(pi+pi- J/Psi)= (85+-8.7) keV; and Br(hadron)=
(97.79+-0.15)%, Br(pi+pi- J/Psi)= (32+-1.4)%, Br(mu)= (0.93+-0.08)%,
respectively.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure

Measurements of decays into Vector- Tensor final states
Decays of the into vector plus tensor meson final states have been
studied with 14 million events collected with the BESII detector.
Branching fractions of \psi(2S) \rt \omega f_{2}(1270), ,

of the "12%" rule for decays to VT channels with higher precision.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figures and 2 table
Dielectric signature of charge order in lanthanum nickelates
Three charge-ordering lanthanum nickelates La2-xAxNiO4, substituted with
specific amounts of A = Sr, Ca, and Ba to achieve commensurate charge order,
are investigated using broadband dielectric spectroscopy up to GHz frequencies.
The transition temperatures of the samples are characterized by additional
specific heat and magnetic susceptibility measurements. We find colossal
magnitudes of the dielectric constant for all three compounds and strong
relaxation features, which partly are of Maxwell-Wagner type arising from
electrode polarization. Quite unexpectedly, the temperature-dependent colossal
dielectric constants of these materials exhibit distinct anomalies at the
charge-order transitions.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure

Evidence of psi(3770) non-DD-bar Decay to J/psi pi+pi-
Evidence of decays to a non- final state is
observed. A total of \psi(3770) \to \PPJP events are
obtained from a data sample of 27.7 taken at center-of-mass
energies around 3.773 GeV using the BES-II detector at the BEPC. The branching
fraction is determined to be BF(\psi(3770) \to \PPJP)=(0.34\pm 0.14 \pm
0.09)%, corresponding to the partial width of \Gamma(\psi(3770) \to \PPJP) =
(80 \pm 33 \pm 23) keV.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures, Submitted to Physics Letters
Measurements of J/psi --> p \bar{p}
The process J/\psi --> p \bar{p} is studied using 57.7 X 10^6 J/\psi events
collected with the BESII detector at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider.
The branching ratio is determined to be Br(J/\psi --> p \bar{p})=(2.26 +- 0.01
+- 0.14) X 10^{-3}, and the angular distribution is well described by
\frac{dN}{d cos\theta_p}=1+\alpha\cos^2\theta_p with \alpha = 0.676 +- 0.036 +-
0.042, where \theta_p is the angle between the proton and beam directions. The
value of \alpha obtained is in good agreement with the predictions of
first-order QCD.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, RevTex4, Submitted to Phys.Lett.
