In this paper we investigate the strong decays of the two newly observed
bottom-strange mesons and in the framework of
the quark pair creation model. The two-body strong decay widths of
and are
calculated by considering to be a mixture between and
states, and to be a state. The double pion
decay of and is supposed to occur via the
intermediate state and . Although the double pion decay
widths of and are smaller than the two-body
strong decay widths of and , one suggests future
experiments to search the double pion decays of and
due to their sizable decay widths.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures and 6 tables. More references and discussions

X(3915) and X(4350) as new members in P-wave charmonium family
The analysis of the mass spectrum and the calculation of the strong decay of
P-wave charmonium states strongly support to explain the newly observed X(3915)
and X(4350) as new members in P-wave charmonium family, i.e.,
for X(3915) and for X(4350).
Under the P-wave charmonium assignment to X(3915) and X(4350), the
quantum numbers of X(3915) and X(4350) must be and
respectively, which provide the important criterion to test P-wave charmonium
explanation for X(3915) and X(4350) proposed by this letter. The decay behavior
of the remaining two P-wave charmonium states with the second radial excitation
is predicted, and experimental search for them is suggested.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, 2 tables. More references and discussions added,

Interchange reconnection associated with a confined filament eruption: Implications for the source of transient cold-dense plasma in solar winds
The cold-dense plasma is occasionally detected in the solar wind with in situ
data, but the source of the cold-dense plasma remains illusive. Interchange
reconnections (IRs) between closed fields and nearby open fields are well known
to contribute to the formation of solar winds. We present a confined filament
eruption associated with a puff-like coronal mass ejection (CME) on 2014
December 24. The filament underwent successive activations and finally erupted,
due to continuous magnetic flux cancellations and emergences. The confined
erupting filament showed a clear untwist motion, and most of the filament
material fell back. During the eruption, some tiny blobs escaped from the
confined filament body, along newly-formed open field lines rooted around the
south end of the filament, and some bright plasma flowed from the north end of
the filament to remote sites at nearby open fields. The newly-formed open field
lines shifted southward with multiple branches. The puff-like CME also showed
multiple bright fronts and a clear southward shift. All the results indicate an
intermittent IR existed between closed fields of the confined erupting filament
and nearby open fields, which released a portion of filament material (blobs)
to form the puff-like CME. We suggest that the IR provides a possible source of
cold-dense plasma in the solar wind
Multi-scale Deep Learning Architectures for Person Re-identification
Person Re-identification (re-id) aims to match people across non-overlapping
camera views in a public space. It is a challenging problem because many people
captured in surveillance videos wear similar clothes. Consequently, the
differences in their appearance are often subtle and only detectable at the
right location and scales. Existing re-id models, particularly the recently
proposed deep learning based ones match people at a single scale. In contrast,
in this paper, a novel multi-scale deep learning model is proposed. Our model
is able to learn deep discriminative feature representations at different
scales and automatically determine the most suitable scales for matching. The
importance of different spatial locations for extracting discriminative
features is also learned explicitly. Experiments are carried out to demonstrate
that the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the art on a number of
benchmarksComment: 9 pages, 3 figures, accepted by ICCV 201
