    We investigate the discovery potential of the predicted neutral hidden beauty Nβˆ—(11052)N^*(11052) resonance through Ο€βˆ’p\pi^- p scattering within an effective Lagrangian approach. Two reactions Ο€βˆ’pβ†’Kβˆ’Ξ£+\pi^-p\rightarrow K^-\Sigma^+ and Ο€βˆ’pβ†’Ξ·bn\pi^-p\rightarrow \eta_bn are studied in this work, with nucleon pole exchange as the background. It is found that the contributions of the Nβˆ—(11052)N^*(11052) resonance give clear peak structures in the magnitude of 1 ΞΌb\mu b near the threshold of the Nβˆ—(11052)N^*(11052) in the total cross sections. The numerical results indicate that the center of mass energy W≃W\simeq 11-11.1 GeV would be a best energy window for searching the Nβˆ—(11052)N^*(11052) resonance, where the Nβˆ—(11052)N^*(11052) signal can be easily distinguished from the background. The COMPASS experiment at CERN's Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) with pion beam of ≃\simeq 280 GeV will be an ideal platform for searching the super-heavy resonance with hidden beauty, which is hopeful to test the theoretical results

    The production of superheavy Ξ›ccΛ‰βˆ—(4209)\Lambda _{c\bar{c}}^{\ast }(4209) baryon in the Kβˆ’pβ†’Ξ·cΞ›K^{-}p\rightarrow \eta _{c}\Lambda process via ss-channel is investigated with an effective Lagrangian approach and the isobar model. Moreover, the tt-channel with Kβˆ—K^{\ast } and uu-channel with nucleon exchange are also considered, which are regarded as the background for the Ξ›ccΛ‰βˆ—(4209)\Lambda _{c\bar{c}}^{\ast }(4209) production in the Kβˆ’pβ†’Ξ·cΞ›K^{-}p\rightarrow \eta_{c}\Lambda reaction. The numerical results indicate it is feasible to searching for the superheavy Ξ›ccΛ‰βˆ—(4209)\Lambda _{c\bar{c}}^{\ast }(4209) via Kβˆ’pK^{-}p scattering. These theoretical results not only provide valuable informations to future experimental exploration of Ξ›ccΛ‰βˆ—(4209)\Lambda _{c\bar{c}}^{\ast }(4209) resonance but enable us to have a better understanding of the exotic baryons.Comment: 6 page

    Collective modes of a harmonically trapped one-dimensional Bose gas: the effects of finite particle number and nonzero temperature

    Full text link
    Following the idea of the density functional approach, we develop a generalized Bogoliubov theory of an interacting Bose gas confined in a one-dimensional harmonic trap, by using a local chemical potential - calculated with the Lieb-Liniger exact solution - as the exchange energy. At zero temperature, we use the theory to describe collective modes of a finite-particle system in all interaction regimes from the ideal gas limit, to the mean-field Thomas-Fermi regime, and to the strongly interacting Tonks-Girardeau regime. At finite temperature, we investigate the temperature dependence of collective modes in the weak-coupling regime by means of a Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory with Popov approximation. By emphasizing the effects of finite particle number and nonzero temperature on collective mode frequencies, we make comparisons of our results with the recent experimental measurement [E. Haller et al., Science 325, 1224 (2009)] and some previous theoretical predictions. We show that the experimental data are still not fully explained within current theoretical framework.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figure

    Tastle: Distract Large Language Models for Automatic Jailbreak Attack

    Full text link
    Large language models (LLMs) have achieved significant advances in recent days. Extensive efforts have been made before the public release of LLMs to align their behaviors with human values. The primary goal of alignment is to ensure their helpfulness, honesty and harmlessness. However, even meticulously aligned LLMs remain vulnerable to malicious manipulations such as jailbreaking, leading to unintended behaviors. The jailbreak is to intentionally develop a malicious prompt that escapes from the LLM security restrictions to produce uncensored detrimental contents. Previous works explore different jailbreak methods for red teaming LLMs, yet they encounter challenges regarding to effectiveness and scalability. In this work, we propose Tastle, a novel black-box jailbreak framework for automated red teaming of LLMs. We designed malicious content concealing and memory reframing with an iterative optimization algorithm to jailbreak LLMs, motivated by the research about the distractibility and over-confidence phenomenon of LLMs. Extensive experiments of jailbreaking both open-source and proprietary LLMs demonstrate the superiority of our framework in terms of effectiveness, scalability and transferability. We also evaluate the effectiveness of existing jailbreak defense methods against our attack and highlight the crucial need to develop more effective and practical defense strategies
