    Study of Light Scalar Meson Structure in D1D_1 decay

    Full text link
    We study the quark structure of the sigma meson through the decay of D1(2430)D_1(2430) meson by constructing an effective Lagrangian for charmed mesons interacting with light mesons based on the chiral symmetry and heavy quark symmetry. Within the linear realization of the chiral symmetry, we include the P-wave charmed mesons (D1(2430)D_1(2430), D0(2400)D_0(2400)) as the chiral partners of (DD^\ast, DD), and the light scalar mesons as the chiral partner of the pseudoscalar mesons. In the light meson sector, both the qqˉq\bar{q} and qqqˉqˉqq\bar{q}\bar{q} states are incorporated respecting their different U(1)A_A transformation properties. We predict the D1DππD_1 \to D\pi\pi decay width with two pions in the I=0,l=0I=0,\,l=0 channel, which can be tested in the future experiment. We find that the width increases with the percentage of the qqˉq\bar{q} content in the sigma meson.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, Contribution to KMI Inauguration Conference "Quest for the Origin of Particles and the Universe" (KMIIN), 24-26 Nov. 2011, KMI, Nagoya Universit

    X-Ray Study of the Outer Region of Abell 2142 with Suzaku

    We observed outer regions of a bright cluster of galaxies A2142 with Suzaku. Temperature and brightness structures were measured out to the virial radius (r200r_{200}) with good sensitivity. We confirmed the temperature drop from 9 keV around the cluster center to about 3.5 keV at r200r_{200}, with the density profile well approximated by the β\beta model with β=0.85\beta = 0.85. Within 0.4\r_{200}, the entropy profile agrees with r1.1r^{1.1}, as predicted by the accretion shock model. The entropy slope becomes flatter in the outer region and negative around r200r_{200}. These features suggest that the intracluster medium in the outer region is out of thermal equilibrium. Since the relaxation timescale of electron-ion Coulomb collision is expected to be longer than the elapsed time after shock heating at r200r_{200}, one plausible reason of the low entropy is the low electron temperature compared to that of ions. Other possible explanations would be gas clumpiness, turbulence and bulk motions of ICM\@. We also searched for a warm-hot intergalactic medium around r200r_{200} and set an upper limit on the oxygen line intensity. Assuming a line-of-sight depth of 2 Mpc and oxygen abundance of 0.1 solar, the upper limit of an overdensity is calculated to be 280 or 380, depending on the foreground assumption.Comment: 14 pages, 8 figure

    Mass singularity and confining property in QED3QED_3

    Full text link
    We discuss the properties of the position space fermion propagator in three dimensional QED which has been found previouly based on Ward-Takahashi-identity for soft-photon emission vertex and spectral representation.There is a new type of mass singularity which governs the long distance behaviour.It leads the propagator vanish at large distance.This term corresponds to dynamical mass in position space.Our model shows confining property and dynamical mass generation for arbitrary coupling constant.Since we used dispersion retation in deriving spectral function there is a physical mass which sets a mass scale.For finite cut off we obtain the full propagator in the dispersion integral as a superposition of different massses.Low energy behaviour of the proagator is modified to decrease by position dependent mass.In the limit of zero infrared cut-off the propagator vanishes with a new kind of infrared behaviour.Comment: 22pages,4figures,revtex4,Notational sloppiness are crrected.Submitted to JHE

    Mott insulator in two-channel Kondo lattice

    Get PDF
    The Mott insulator is found in the two-channel Kondo lattice by using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo method. At quarter filling of two conduction bands, the paramagnetic state shows metal-insulator crossover with increasing the coupling constant at low temperatures. The insulating state is explained by the strong coupling limit, where the system is effectively interpreted as the half-filled Hubbard model. It is shown that the present Mott insulating state is well described by the Hubbard I approximation
