The structure of -brane model
Recently, a family of interesting analytical brane solutions were found in
gravity with in Ref. [Phys. Lett. B 729, 127
(2014)]. In these solutions, inner brane structure can be turned on by tuning
the value of the parameter . In this paper, we investigate how the
parameter affects the localization and the quasilocalization of the
tensorial gravitons around these solutions. It is found that, in a range of
, despite the brane has an inner structure, there is no graviton
resonance. However, in some other regions of the parameter space, although the
brane has no internal structure, the effective potential for the graviton KK
modes has a singular structure, and there exists a series of graviton resonant
modes. The contribution of the massive graviton KK modes to the Newton's law of
gravity is discussed shortly.Comment: v2: 10 pages, 8 figures, to be published in EPJ
New generalizations of Browder's variational inequalities and the Ky Fan minimax inequality
AbstractIn the present paper, some new generalized versions of Browder's theorems for variational inequalities and the Ky Fan minimax inequality are obtained
Search for charmonium and XYZ states in at BESIII
Within the framework of nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics, we study the
production of charmonium states in at BESIII
with (n=1, 2, 3, and 4), (n=1, 2, and 3), and
(n=1 and 2). The radiative and relativistic corrections are
calculated to next-to-leading order for and wave states. We then argue
that the search for states such as , , ,
and in at BESIII may help clarify the nature
of these states. BESIII can search states through two body process
, where decay to , , or
. This result may be useful in identifying the nature of
states. For completeness, the production of charmonium in at B factories is also discussed.Comment: Comments and suggestions are welcome. References are update
Revealing A Head-on Major Merger in the Nearby NGC 6338 Group with Chandra and VLA observations
By analyzing the Chandra archival data of the nearby NGC 6338 galaxy group,
we identify two X-ray bright clumps (N-clump and S-clump) within the central
100 kpc, and detect an arc-like X-ray brightness discontinuity at the south
boundary of the N-clump, which is defined as a cold front with a gas flow Mach
number of M<0.8. Furthermore, at the north-east boundary of the S-clump
(dominated by galaxy NGC 6338) another X-ray edge is detected that corresponds
to a weaker cold front. Therefore, the two clumps are approaching each other
approximately from opposite directions, and the group is undergoing a head-on
collision that is in a stage of pre-core passage. This merger scenario is also
supported by the study of the line-of-sight velocity distribution of the group
member galaxies. The merger mass ratio is about 1:1.8 as estimated from the
central gas temperature of the two clumps, which suggests the merger is most
likely to be a major merger. We also analyze the VLA 1.4 and 4.9 GHz radio
data, but we do not detect any extended radio emission that is associated with
the merger.Comment: Accepted by Ap
