Submergence of the Sidebands in the Photon-assisted Tunneling through a Quantum Dot Weakly Coupled to Luttinger Liquid Leads
We study theoretically the photon-assisted tunneling through a quantum dot
weakly coupled to Luttinger liquids (LL) leads, and find that the zero bias dc
conductance is strongly affected by the interactions in the LL leads. In
comparison with the system with Fermi liquid (FL) leads, the sideband peaks of
the dc conductance become blurring for 1/2<g<1, and finally merge into the
central peak for g<1/2, (g is the interaction parameter in the LL leads). The
sidebands are suppressed for LL leads with Coulomb interactions strong enough,
and the conductance always appears as a single peak for any strength and
frequency of the external time-dependent field. Furthermore, the quenching
effect of the central peak for the FL case does not exist for g<1/2.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Modeling realistic Earth matter density for CP violation in neutrino oscillation
We examine the effect of a more realistic Earth matter density model which
takes into account of the local density variations along the baseline of a
possi ble 2100 km very long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. Its
influence to the measurement of CP violation is investigated and a comparison
with the commonly used global density models made. Significant differences are
found in the comparison of the results of the different density models.Comment: 16 pages, 8 figure
Quadra-Spectrum and Quint-Spectrum from Inflation and Curvaton Models
We calculate the quadra-spectrum and quint-spectrum, corresponding to five
and six point correlation functions of the curvature perturbation. For single
field inflation with standard kinetic term, the quadra-spectrum and
quint-spectrum are small, which are suppressed by slow roll parameters. The
calculation can be generalized to multiple fields. When there is no entropy
perturbation, the quadra-spectrum and quint-spectrum are suppressed as well.
With the presence of entropy perturbation, the quadra-spectrum and
quint-spectrum can get boosted. We illustrate this boost in the multi-brid
inflation model. For the curvaton scenario, the quadra-spectrum and
quint-spectrum are also large in the small r limit. We also calculate
representative terms of quadra-spectrum and quint-spectrum for inflation with
generalized kinetic terms, and estimate their order of magnitude for
quasi-single field inflation.Comment: 16 pages; v2: references added
Search for the Rare Decays J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e, J/Psi --> D- e+ nu_e, and J/Psi --> D0bar e+ e-
We report on a search for the decays J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e + c.c., J/Psi -->
D- e+ nu_e + c.c., and J/Psi --> D0bar e+ e- + c.c. in a sample of 5.8 * 10^7
J/Psi events collected with the BESII detector at the BEPC. No excess of signal
above background is observed, and 90% confidence level upper limits on the
branching fractions are set: B(J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e + c.c.)<4.8*10^-5, B(J/Psi
--> D- e+ nu_e + c.c.) D0bar e+ e- + c.c.)<1.1*10^-5Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Measurements of J/psi Decays into 2(pi+pi-)eta and 3(pi+pi-)eta
Based on a sample of 5.8X 10^7 J/psi events taken with the BESII detector,
the branching fractions of J/psi--> 2(pi+pi-)eta and J/psi-->3(pi+pi-)eta are
measured for the first time to be (2.26+-0.08+-0.27)X10^{-3} and
(7.24+-0.96+-1.11)X10^{-4}, respectively.Comment: 11 pages, 6 figure
Chern-Simons Term for BF Theory and Gravity as a Generalized Topological Field Theory in Four Dimensions
A direct relation between two types of topological field theories,
Chern-Simons theory and BF theory, is presented by using ``Generalized
Differential Calculus'', which extends an ordinary p-form to an ordered pair of
p and (p+1)-form. We first establish the generalized Chern-Weil homomormism for
generalized curvature invariant polynomials in general even dimensional
manifolds, and then show that BF gauge theory can be obtained from the action
which is the generalized second Chern class with gauge group G. Particularly
when G is taken as SL(2,C) in four dimensions, general relativity with
cosmological constant can be derived by constraining the topological BF theory.Comment: Improved abstract and introduction with 11 references added. Accepted

BESII Detector Simulation
A Monte Carlo program based on Geant3 has been developed for BESII detector
simulation. The organization of the program is outlined, and the digitization
procedure for simulating the response of various sub-detectors is described.
Comparisons with data show that the performance of the program is generally
satisfactory.Comment: 17 pages, 14 figures, uses elsart.cls, to be submitted to NIM
