Implications of the non-universal Z boson in FCNC mediated rare decays
We analyze the effect of the non-universal boson in the rare decays , and decays. These
decays involve the FCNC mediated transitions, and are found to be
very small in the standard model. The smallness of these decays in the standard
model makes them sensitive probe for new physics. We find an enhancement of at
least an order in these branching ratios because of the non-universal
coupling.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures, minor changes in the text, references added, to

Magnetic ordering and fluctuation in kagome lattice antiferromagnets, Fe and Cr jarosites
Jarosite family compounds, KFe_3(OH)_6(SO_4)_2, (abbreviate Fe jarosite), and
KCr_3(OH)_6(SO_4)_2, (Cr jarosite), are typical examples of the Heisenberg
antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice and have been investigated by means of
magnetization and NMR experiments. The susceptibility of Cr jarosite deviates
from Curie-Weiss law due to the short-range spin correlation below about 150 K
and shows the magnetic transition at 4.2 K, while Fe jarosite has the
transition at 65 K. The susceptibility data fit well with the calculated one on
the high temperature expansion for the Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the kagome
lattice. The values of exchange interaction of Cr jarosite and Fe jarosite are
derived to be J_Cr = 4.9 K and J_Fe = 23 K, respectively. The 1H-NMR spectra of
Fe jarosite suggest that the ordered spin structure is the q = 0 type with
positive chirality of the 120 degrees configuration. The transition is caused
by a weak single-ion type anisotropy. The spin-lattice relaxation rate, 1/T_1,
of Fe jarosite in the ordered phase decreases sharply with lowering the
temperature and can be well explained by the two-magnon process of spin wave
with the anisotropy.Comment: REVTeX, 14 pages with 5 figures. Submitted to Canadian Journal of

Momentum Dependent Charge Excitations of Two-Leg Ladder: Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering of (La,Sr,Ca)14Cu24O41
Momentum dependent charge excitations of a two-leg ladder are investigated by
resonant inelastic x-ray scattering of (La,Sr,Ca)14Cu24O41. In contrast to the
case of a square lattice, momentum dependence of the Mott gap excitation of the
ladder exhibits little change upon hole-doping, indicating the formation of
hole pairs. Theoretical calculation based on a Hubbard model qualitatively
explains this feature. In addition, experimental data shows intraband
excitation as continuum intensity below the Mott gap and it appears at all the
momentum transfers simultaneously. The intensity of the intraband excitation is
proportional to the hole concentration of the ladder, which is consistent with
optical conductivity measurements.Comment: 7 page
Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of hole-doped manganites La1-xSrxMnO3 (x=0.2 and 0.4)
Electronic excitations near the Fermi energy in the hole doped manganese
oxides (La1-xSrxMnO3, x=0.2 and 0.4) have been elucidated by using the resonant
inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) method. A doping effect in the strongly
correlated electron systems has been observed for the first time. The
scattering spectra show that a salient peak appears in low energies indicating
the persistence of the Mott gap. At the same time, the energy gap is partly
filled by doping holes and the energy of the spectral weight shifts toward
lower energies. The excitation spectra show little change in the momentum space
as is in undoped LaMnO3, but the scattering intensities in the low energy
excitations of x=0.2 are anisotropic as well as temperature dependent, which
indicates a reminiscence of the orbital nature
Search for Lepton Flavor Violating Tau Decays into Three Leptons with 719 Million Produced Tau+Tau- Pairs
We present a search for lepton-flavor-violating tau decays into three leptons
(electrons or muons) using 782 fb^-1 of data collected with the Belle detector
at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. No evidence for these decays is
observed and we set 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching
fractions between 1.5 x 10^-8 and 2.7 x 10^-8.Comment: 13 pages, 7 figure
Anisotropy of Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering at the K Edge of Si:Theoretical Analysis
We investigate theoretically the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS)
at the edge of Si on the basis of an ab initio calculation. We calculate
the RIXS spectra with systematically varying transfered-momenta,
incident-photon energy and incident-photon polarization. We confirm the
anisotropy of the experimental spectra by Y. Ma {\it et al}. (Phys. Rev. Lett.
74, 478 (1995)), providing a quantitative explanation of the spectra.Comment: 18 pages, 11 figure
Atomic displacements and lattice distortion in the magnetic-field-induced charge ordered state of SmRuP
Structural properties of SmRuP in the anomalous magnetic ordered
phase between K and K in magnetic fields has
been studied by x-ray diffraction. Atomic displacements of Ru and P, reflecting
the field-induced charge order of the electrons, have been deduced by
analyzing the intensities of the forbidden Bragg peaks, assuming a cubic space
group . Also, by utilizing high-resolution x-ray diffraction
experiment, we observed a splitting of fundamental Bragg peaks, clarifying that
the unit cell in the magnetic ordered phase is rhombohedral elongated along the
axis. Responses of the rhombohedral domains to the magnetic
field, which reflects the direction of the magnetic moment, is studied in
detail.Comment: 11 pages, 11 figures, accepted for publication in PR
