Theory of Current-Induced Magnetization Precession
We solve appropriate drift-diffusion and Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations to
demonstrate that unpolarized current flow from a non-magnet into a ferromagnet
can produce a precession-type instability of the magnetization. The fundamental
origin of the instability is the difference in conductivity between majority
spins and minority spins in the ferromagnet. This leads to spin accumulation
and spin currents that carry angular momentum across the interface. The
component of this angular momentum perpendicular to the magnetization drives
precessional motion that is opposed by Gilbert damping. Neglecting magnetic
anisotropy and magnetostatics, our approximate analytic and exact numerical
solutions using realistic values for the material parameters show (for both
semi-infinite and thin film geometries) that a linear instability occurs when
both the current density and the excitation wave vector parallel to the
interface are neither too small nor too large. For many aspects of the problem,
the variation of the magnetization in the direction of the current flows makes
an important contribution.Comment: Submitted to Physical Review
On Two-Body Decays of A Scalar Glueball
We study two body decays of a scalar glueball. We show that in QCD a spin-0
pure glueball (a state only with gluons) cannot decay into a pair of light
quarks if chiral symmetry holds exactly, i.e., the decay amplitude is chirally
suppressed. However, this chiral suppression does not materialize itself at the
hadron level such as in decays into and , because in
perturbative QCD the glueball couples to two (but not one) light quark pairs
that hadronize to two mesons. Using QCD factorization based on an effective
Lagrangian, we show that the difference of hadronization into and
already leads to a large difference between and , even the decay amplitude is not chirally suppressed. Moreover,
the small ratio of of
measured in experiment does not imply to be a pure glueball. With
our results it is helpful to understand the partonic contents if or is measured reliably.Comment: revised versio
A note on Friedmann equation of FRW universe in deformed Horava-Lifshitz gravity from entropic force
With entropic interpretation of gravity proposed by Verlinde, we obtain the
Friedmann equation of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe for the deformed
Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity. It is shown that, when the parameter of
Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity , the modified Friedmann
equation will go back to the one in Einstein gravity. This results may imply
that the entropic interpretation of gravity is effective for the deformed
Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity.Comment: 9 pages, no figure
Independent Eigenstates of Angular Momentum in a Quantum N-body System
The global rotational degrees of freedom in the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for
an -body system are completely separated from the internal ones. After
removing the motion of center of mass, we find a complete set of
independent base functions with the angular momentum . These are
homogeneous polynomials in the components of the coordinate vectors and the
solutions of the Laplace equation, where the Euler angles do not appear
explicitly. Any function with given angular momentum and given parity in the
system can be expanded with respect to the base functions, where the
coefficients are the functions of the internal variables. With the right choice
of the base functions and the internal variables, we explicitly establish the
equations for those functions. Only (3N-6) internal variables are involved both
in the functions and in the equations. The permutation symmetry of the wave
functions for identical particles is discussed.Comment: 24 pages, no figure, one Table, RevTex, Will be published in Phys.

Some properties of the newly observed X(1835) state at BES
Recently the BES collaboration has announced observation of a resonant state
in the spectrum in
decay. Fitting the data with a state, the mass is determined to be
1833.7 MeV with statistic significance. This state is consistent
with the one extracted from previously reported threshold
enhancement data in . We study the properties of
this state using QCD anomaly and QCD sum rules assuming X(1835) to be a
pseudoscalar and show that it is consistent with data. We find that this state
has a sizeable matrix element leading to branching ratios
of and for
and for , respectively.
Combining the calculated branching ratio of and data on
threshold enhancement in , we determine the
coupling for interaction. We finally study branching ratios of
other decay modes. We find that can provide useful
tests for the mechanism proposed.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figures. The final version to appear at EPJ
The pole in
Using a sample of 58 million events recorded in the BESII detector,
the decay is studied. There are conspicuous

broad peak due to the is observed, and its pole position is determined
to be - MeV from the mean of six analyses.
The errors are dominated by the systematic errors.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures, submitted to PL
The pole structure of the unitary, crossing symmetric low energy scattering amplitudes
The pole structure of the low energy scattering amplitudes is
studied using a proper chiral unitarization method combined with crossing
symmetry and the low energy phase shift data. It is found that the
pole position is at , . The
existence of the virtual state pole in the IJ=20 channel is reconfirmed.
Various threshold parameters are estimated and are found in general in good
agreement with the results obtained from the Roy equation analyses.Comment: Minor corrections made and references added. Final version accepted

A study of charged kappa in
Based on events collected by BESII, the decay
is studied. In the invariant mass
spectrum recoiling against the charged , the charged
particle is found as a low mass enhancement. If a Breit-Wigner function of
constant width is used to parameterize the kappa, its pole locates at MeV/. Also in this channel,
the decay is observed for the first time.
Its branching ratio is .Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure
Search for direct production of charginos and neutralinos in events with three leptons and missing transverse momentum in √s = 7 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector
A search for the direct production of charginos and neutralinos in final states with three electrons or muons and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis is based on 4.7 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data delivered by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded with the ATLAS detector. Observations are consistent with Standard Model expectations in three signal regions that are either depleted or enriched in Z-boson decays. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are set in R-parity conserving phenomenological minimal supersymmetric models and in simplified models, significantly extending previous results
