Gluon saturation and pseudo-rapidity distributions of charged hadrons at RHIC energy regions
We modified the gluon saturation model by rescaling the momentum fraction
according to saturation momentum and introduced the Cooper-Frye hydrodynamic
evolution to systematically study the pseudo-rapidity distributions of final
charged hadrons at different energies and different centralities for Au-Au
collisions in relativistic heavy-ion collisions at BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion
Collider (RHIC). The features of both gluon saturation and hydrodynamic
evolution at different energies and different centralities for Au-Au collisions
are investigated in this paper.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure
Stability Of contact discontinuity for steady Euler System in infinite duct
In this paper, we prove structural stability of contact discontinuities for
full Euler system
Transonic Shocks In Multidimensional Divergent Nozzles
We establish existence, uniqueness and stability of transonic shocks for
steady compressible non-isentropic potential flow system in a multidimensional
divergent nozzle with an arbitrary smooth cross-section, for a prescribed exit
pressure. The proof is based on solving a free boundary problem for a system of
partial differential equations consisting of an elliptic equation and a
transport equation. In the process, we obtain unique solvability for a class of
transport equations with velocity fields of weak regularity(non-Lipschitz), an
infinite dimensional weak implicit mapping theorem which does not require
continuous Frechet differentiability, and regularity theory for a class of
elliptic partial differential equations with discontinuous oblique boundary
conditions.Comment: 54 page
Quantum master equation scheme of time-dependent density functional theory to time-dependent transport in nano-electronic devices
In this work a practical scheme is developed for the first-principles study
of time-dependent quantum transport. The basic idea is to combine the transport
master-equation with the well-known time-dependent density functional theory.
The key ingredients of this paper include: (i) the partitioning-free initial
condition and the consideration of the time-dependent bias voltages which base
our treatment on the Runge-Gross existence theorem; (ii) the non-Markovian
master equation for the reduced (many-body) central system (i.e. the device);
and (iii) the construction of Kohn-Sham master equation for the reduced
single-particle density matrix, where a number of auxiliary functions are
introduced and their equations of motion (EOM) are established based on the
technique of spectral decomposition. As a result, starting with a well-defined
initial state, the time-dependent transport current can be calculated
simultaneously along the propagation of the Kohn-Sham master equation and the
EOM of the auxiliary functions.Comment: 9 pages, no figure
Field Driven Pairing State Phase Transition in d_x^2-y^2+id_xy-Wave Superconductors
Within the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau theory for
-wave superconductors, we discuss the pairing state phase
transition in the absence of the Zeeman coupling between the Cooper pair
orbital angular momentum and the magnetic field. We find that above a
temperature , the pairing state in a magnetic field is pure
-wave. However, below , the pairing state is
-wave at low fields, and it becomes pure
-wave at higher fields. Between these pairing states there
exists a field driven phase transition . The transition field increases with
decreasing temperature. In the field-temperature phase diagram, the phase
transition line is obtained theoretically by a combined use of a variational
method and the Virial theorem. The analytical result is found to be in good
agreement with numerical simulation results of the Gingzburg-Landau equations.
The validity of the variational method is discussed. The difference to the case
with the Zeeman coupling is discussed, which may be utilized to the detection
of the Zeeman coupling.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, submitted to PRB Brief Repor
Reconstructing generalized ghost condensate model with dynamical dark energy parametrizations and observational datasets
Observations of high-redshift supernovae indicate that the universe is
accelerating at the present stage, and we refer to the cause for this cosmic
acceleration as ``dark energy''. In particular, the analysis of current data of
type Ia supernovae (SNIa), cosmic large-scale structure (LSS), and the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) anisotropy implies that, with some possibility, the
equation-of-state parameter of dark energy may cross the cosmological-constant
boundary () during the recent evolution stage. The model of ``quintom''
has been proposed to describe this crossing behavior for dark energy. As
a single-real-scalar-field model of dark energy, the generalized ghost
condensate model provides us with a successful mechanism for realizing the
quintom-like behavior. In this paper, we reconstruct the generalized ghost
condensate model in the light of three forms of parametrization for dynamical
dark energy, with the best-fit results of up-to-date observational data.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures; references added; accepted for publication in

Object Picture of Quasinormal Modes for Stringy Black Holes
We study the quasinormal modes (QNMs) for stringy black holes. By using
numerical calculation, the relations between the QNMs and the parameters of
black holes are minutely shown. For (1+1)-dimensional stringy black hole, the
real part of the quasinormal frequency increases and the imaginary part of the
quasinormal frequency decreases as the mass of the black hole increases.
Furthermore, the dependence of the QNMs on the charge of the black hole and the
flatness parameter is also illustrated. For (1+3)-dimensional stringy black
hole, increasing either the event horizon or the multipole index, the real part
of the quasinormal frequency decreases. The imaginary part of the quasinormal
frequency increases no matter whether the event horizon is increased or the
multipole index is decreased.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Isolation and identification of anthocyanin component in the fruits of Acanthopanax Sessiliflorus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Seem. by means of high speed counter current chromatography and evaluation of Its antioxidant activity
Acanthopanax sessiliflorus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Seem. (Araliaceae) is one of the most
abundant species of genus Acanthopanax. The fruits of A. sessiliflorus are used in traditional medical
protocols as an analgesic, tonic, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and
immune-stimulating agent. In this work, we carried out a comprehensive investigation into the
anthocyanin components in the fruits of A. sessiliflorus. The anthocyanin content in the fresh
fruits of A. sessiliflorus was determined by high performance liquid chromatography-diode array
detection (HPLC/DAD), and the anthocyanin component was isolated from these using high-speed
counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) and elucidated by electro-spray ionization-mass
spectrometry (ESI/MS), 1H- and 13C-NMR. Its antioxidant activity was evaluated by ferric-reducing
antioxidant power (FRAP) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH).We found that A. sessiliflorus
contained a gross anthocyanin content of 121.35 mg/100 g. HSCCC was successfully used for
separation and purification of the primary anthocyanin component, cyanidin 3-xylosyl-galactoside.
The antioxidant and radical scavenging tests indicated that cyanidin 3-xylosyl-galactoside is a
potent antioxidant
