Single-filament Composite MgB2/SUS Ribbons by Powder-In-Tube Process
We report the successful fabrication of single-filament composite MgB2/SUS
ribbons, as an ultra-robust conductor type, employing the powder-in-tube (PIT)
process, by swaging and cold rolling only. The remarkable transport critical
current (Ic) of the non-sintered MgB2/SUS ribbon has observed, as an unexpected
result. Transport critical currents Ic ~ 316 A at T = 4.2 K and Ic ~ 82 A at T
= 20 K were observed at self-field, for the non-sintered composite MgB2/SUS
ribbon. In addition, the persistent current density Jp values, that were
estimated by Bean formula, were more than ~ 7  105 A/cm2 at T = 5 K,
and ~ 1.2  105 A/cm2 at T = 30 K, for the sintered composite MgB2/SUS
ribbon, at H = 0 G.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Magnetism in the dilute Kondo lattice model
The one dimensional dilute Kondo lattice model is investigated by means of
bosonization for different dilution patterns of the array of impurity spins.
The physical picture is very different if a commensurate or incommensurate
doping of the impurity spins is considered. For the commensurate case, the
obtained phase diagram is verified using a non-Abelian density-matrix
renormalization-group algorithm. The paramagnetic phase widens at the expense
of the ferromagnetic phase as the -spins are diluted. For the incommensurate
case, antiferromagnetism is found at low doping, which distinguishes the dilute
Kondo lattice model from the standard Kondo lattice model.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figure
Semileptonic decays
We study the four-body exclusive semileptonic baryonic decays of
() in the standard
model. We find that their decay branching ratios are about , respectively. In particular, the electron mode is
close to the corresponding CLEO's upper limit of , while all
results are about one or two orders of magnitude larger than the previous
estimated values for the inclusive modes of . Clearly, both B-factories of Belle and BaBar should be able to observe
these exclusive four-body modes.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures, published versio

Study of charmonia in four-meson final states produced in two-photon collisions
We report measurements of charmonia produced in two-photon collisions and
decaying to four-meson final states, where the meson is either a charged pion
or a charged kaon. The analysis is based on a 395fb^{-1} data sample
accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB electron-positron collider. We
observe signals for the three C-even charmonia eta_c(1S), chi_{c0}(1P) and
chi_{c2}(1P) in the pi^+pi^-pi^+pi^-, K^+K^-pi^+pi^- and K^+K^-K^+K^- decay
modes. No clear signals for eta_c(2S) production are found in these decay
modes. We have also studied resonant structures in charmonium decays to
two-body intermediate meson resonances. We report the products of the
two-photon decay width and the branching fractions, Gamma_{gamma gamma}B, for
each of the charmonium decay modes.Comment: 22 pages, 12 figure
Moments of the Hadronic Invariant Mass Spectrum in B --> X_c l nu Decays at Belle
We present a measurement of the hadronic invariant mass squared (M^2_X)
spectrum in charmed semileptonic B meson decays B --> X_c l nu based on 140
fb^-1 of Belle data collected near the Y(4S) resonance. We determine the first,
the second central and the second non-central moments of this spectrum for
lepton energy thresholds ranging between 0.7 and 1.9 GeV. Full correlations
between these measurements are evaluated.Comment: published version of the paper (one figure added, minor changes in

Improved measurement of CP-violating parameters in rho+rho- decays
We present a measurement of the CP-violating asymmetry in rho+rho- decays
using 535 million BBbar pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB
e+e- collider. We measure CP-violating coefficients A = 0.16 +- 0.21(stat) +-
0.07 (syst) and S = 0.19 +- 0.30(stat) +- 0.07 (syst}. These values are used to
determine the unitarity triangle angle phi_2 using an isospin analysis; the
solution consistent with Standard Model lies in the range 53 < phi_2 < 114 deg.

Search for B -> h(*) nu nubar Decays at Belle
We present a search for the rare decays B -> h(*) nu nubar, where h(*) stands
for a light meson. A data sample of 535 million BBbar pairs collected with the
Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider is used. Signal candidates are
required to have an accompanying B meson fully reconstructed in a hadronic mode
and signal-side particles consistent with a single h(*) meson. No significant
signal is observed and we set upper limits on the branching fractions at 90%
confidence level. The limits on B0 -> K*0 nu nubar and B+ -> K+ nu nubar decays
are more stringent than the previous constraints, while the first searches for
B0 -> K0 nu nubar, pi0 nu nubar, rho0 nu nubar, phi nu nubar and B+ -> K*+ nu
nubar, rho+ nu nubar are reported.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, submit to PR
Search for neutrinoless decays tau -> lhh and tau -> lV0
We have searched for neutrinoless tau lepton decays into l h h or l V0, where
l stands for an electron or muon, h for a charged light hadron, pi or K, and V0
for a neutral vector meson, rho, K*(892) and phi, using a 158 /fb data sample
collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. Since the number
of events observed are consistent with the expected background, we set upper
limits on the branching fractions in the range of 1.6-8.0 x 10-7 for various
decay modes at the 90% confidence level.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures, 2 tables, submitted to Phys. Lett.
Observation of the Decay \bar{B0}-> Ds+ Lambda \bar{p}
We report the first observation of the decay \bar{B0} -> D_s^+ Lambda \bar{p}
with a statistical significance of 6.6 sigma. We measure Br(\bar{B0} -> Ds+
Lambda \bar{p}) = (2.9 \pm 0.7\pm 0.5 \pm 0.4)* 10^{-5}, where the first error
is statistical, the second is systematic and the third error comes fr\om the
uncertainty in Br(Ds+ -> phi pi+). The data used for this analysis was
accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) resonance, using the Belle detector at the KEKB
asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The integrated luminosity of the data sample
is 414 fb-1, corresponding to 449*10^{6} B{\bar B} pairs.Comment: 5 pages, 2 PostScript figures, 1 tabl
