    O(100GeV)\mathscr{O}(100 GeV) Deci-weak Wβ€²/Zβ€²W^\prime/Z^\prime at Tevatron and LHC

    Full text link
    Recently Tevatron released their measurements on invariant mass spectrum of electron/positron, as well as the di-jet arising from WW+WZ production with one W leptonically decay. Though the statistics is not significant, there are two bumps around 240 GeV and 120-160 GeV respectively. We proposed that the two bumps correspond to the extra light gauge bosons Zβ€²Z^\prime and Wβ€²W^\prime, which couple with quarks with the deci-weak strength. In this brief report, we also simulated di-jet invariant mass distribution at the current running LHC.Comment: 8 pages, 3 EPS figures, ref added, figures update

    New Color-Octet Vector Boson Revisit

    Full text link
    Motivated by CDF recent measurements on di-jet invariant mass spectrum where di-jet is associated production with charged leptons (e/ΞΌe/\mu) and missing energy, we re-examine the previous proposed massive color-octet axial-vector-like boson ZcZ_c. Our simulation showed that the di-jet bump around 120-160 GeV can be induced by ZcZ_c with effective coupling gZcqqΛ‰=0.2gsg_{Z_c q \bar q} =0.2 g_s (q represents the quark other than top and gsg_s is the strong coupling constant). Moreover our numerical investigation indicated that the top quark forward-backward asymmetry AFBtA_{FB}^t can be reproduced without distorting shape of differential cross section dΟƒ/dMttΛ‰d\sigma/d M_{t\bar t}, provided that the ZcZ_c and top quark coupling is appropriately chosen (gZcttˉ≃4.5gZcqqΛ‰g_{Z_c t \bar t} \simeq 4.5 g_{Z_c q \bar q}). Our results also showed that the theoretical AFBtA_{FB}^t as functions of Ξ”y\Delta y and MttΛ‰M_{t\bar t} can be consistent with data within 1Οƒ1\sigma and 1.8Οƒ1.8\sigma respectively.Comment: 8 pages, 3 EPS figure

    Four Jets as a Probe of O(100 GeV) Physics beyond Standard Model at Hadron Colliders

    Full text link
    O(100 GeV) physics beyond the standard model (BSM) could be overlooked provided that it is hidden in the untouched Higgs sector or jets. The top quark forward-backward asymmetry measurements and di-jet bump, which is observed in the associated production with charged lepton plus missing energy (supposed arising from W decay), may indicate the existence of a new color-octet axial-vector Z_C with a mass about 145 GeV. Here Z_C only decays into two jets. In this paper we investigated the possibility to discover Z_C pair via analyzing the four jets as the final states, which are heavily polluted by huge QCD background. Our simulation showed that, however, both Tevatron and LHC have the excellent chance to discover Z_C through analyzing the four jets events in the current accumulated data.Comment: 15 pages, 11figures and 2 table

    Learning Adaptive Discriminative Correlation Filters via Temporal Consistency Preserving Spatial Feature Selection for Robust Visual Tracking

    Get PDF
    With efficient appearance learning models, Discriminative Correlation Filter (DCF) has been proven to be very successful in recent video object tracking benchmarks and competitions. However, the existing DCF paradigm suffers from two major issues, i.e., spatial boundary effect and temporal filter degradation. To mitigate these challenges, we propose a new DCF-based tracking method. The key innovations of the proposed method include adaptive spatial feature selection and temporal consistent constraints, with which the new tracker enables joint spatial-temporal filter learning in a lower dimensional discriminative manifold. More specifically, we apply structured spatial sparsity constraints to multi-channel filers. Consequently, the process of learning spatial filters can be approximated by the lasso regularisation. To encourage temporal consistency, the filter model is restricted to lie around its historical value and updated locally to preserve the global structure in the manifold. Last, a unified optimisation framework is proposed to jointly select temporal consistency preserving spatial features and learn discriminative filters with the augmented Lagrangian method. Qualitative and quantitative evaluations have been conducted on a number of well-known benchmarking datasets such as OTB2013, OTB50, OTB100, Temple-Colour, UAV123 and VOT2018. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over the state-of-the-art approaches

    The role of inter-well tunneling strength on coherence dynamics of two-species Bose-Einstein condensates

    Full text link
    Coherence dynamics of two-species Bose-Einstein condensates in double wells is investigated in mean field approximation. We show that the system can exhibit decoherence phenomena even without the condensate-environment coupling and the variation tendency of the degree of coherence depends on not only the parameters of the system but also the initial states. We also investigate the time evolution of the degree of coherence for a Rosen-Zener form of tunneling strength, and propose a method to get a condensate system with certain degree of coherence through a time-dependent tunneling strength

    Signature of Pseudo Nambu-Goldstone Higgs boson in its Decay

    Full text link
    If the Higgs boson is a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (PNGB), the hZΞ³hZ\gamma contact interaction induced by the O(p4)\mathcal{O}(p^4) invariants of the non-linear sigma model is free from its nonlinearity effects. The process hβ†’ZΞ³h\rightarrow Z\gamma can be used to eliminate the universal effects of heavy particles, which can fake the nonlinearity effects of the PNGB Higgs boson in the process hβ†’Vβˆ—Vh\rightarrow V^*V (V=WΒ±V=W^\pm,\ ZZ). We demonstrate that the ratio of the signal strength of hβ†’ZΞ³h\rightarrow Z\gamma and hβ†’Vβˆ—Vh\rightarrow V^*V is good to distinguish the signature of the PNGB Higgs boson from Higgs coupling deviations
