Excited Heavy Quarkonium Production at the LHC through -Boson Decays
Sizable amount of heavy-quarkonium events can be produced through -boson
decays at the LHC. Such channels will provide a suitable platform to study the
heavy-quarkonium properties. The "improved trace technology", which disposes
the amplitude at the amplitude-level, is helpful for deriving
compact analytical results for complex processes. As an important new
application, in addition to the production of the lower-level Fock states
and , we make a further study on the
production of higher-excited -quarkonium Fock states
, and . Here
stands for the -charmonium,
-quarkonium and -bottomonium respectively. We show
that sizable amount of events for those higher-excited states can also be
produced at the LHC. Therefore, we need to take them into consideration for a
sound estimation.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figures and 6 tables. Typo errors are corrected, more

Doubly Heavy Baryon Production at A High Luminosity Collider
Within the framework of nonrelativistic QCD, we make a detailed discussion on
the doubly heavy baryon production through the annihilation channel,
, at a high luminosity collider. Here
stands for the heavy or quark. In addition to the
channel through the usually considered diquark state
, contributions from the channels through
other same important diquark states such as have
also been discussed. Uncertainties for the total cross sections are predicted
by taking GeV and GeV. At a super
-factory running around the mass and with a high luminosity up to
, we estimate
that about events,
events and events can be
generated in one operation year. Such a -factory, thus, will provide a good
platform for studying the doubly heavy baryons in comparable to the CERN large
hadronic collider.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures. To be published in Phys.Rev.
Optimized Nonlinear PRI Variation Strategy Using Knowledge-Guided Genetic Algorithm for Staggered SAR Imaging
Staggered synthetic aperture radar (SAR), which operates with variable pulse repetition interval (PRI), staggers blind areas to solve the blind range problem caused by constant PRI in conventional high-resolution wide-swath SAR imaging. The PRI variation strategy determines the blind area distribution, and thus has a significant influence on the imaging performance in staggered mode. Generally, the existing strategies based on linear PRI variation can control the blind areas in a straightforward way, which has achieved impressive results. However, the linearity of the PRI variation imposes regularity or even periodicity on the locations of the blind areas, which limits the distribution of the blind areas. The imaging performance has the potential to be further improved by introducing much more irregularity into the PRI sequences. To this end, this article proposes an optimized nonlinear PRI variation strategy for staggered SAR mode. First, a novel objective function is defined that quantitatively measures the uniformity of the blind area distribution along the slant range and the discontinuity of the blind area distribution along the azimuth. Subsequently, the optimum nonlinear PRI variation strategy is found using an optimization problem and the proposed objective function. A knowledge-guided genetic algorithm is proposed to solve the optimization problem. Comparisons with the existing linear variation strategies show that the proposed strategy can provide a superior imaging performance after reconstruction with a lower objective function value. Simulations and experiments on raw data generated in staggered SAR mode are performed to verify the effectiveness of the optimized nonlinear PRI variation strategy
Heavy Quarkonium Production at LHC through Boson Decays
The production of the heavy -quarkonium, -quarkonium
and -quarkonium states (-quarkonium for short), via
the semi-inclusive decays, has been systematically studied within the
framework of the non-relativistic QCD. In addition to the two color-singlet
-wave states, we also discuss the production of the four color-singlet
-wave states and (with ) together with the two color-octet components
and . Improved
trace technology is adopted to derive the simplified analytic expressions at
the amplitude level, which shall be useful for dealing with the following
cascade decay channels. At the LHC with the luminosity and the center-of-mass energy TeV, sizable
heavy-quarkonium events can be produced through the boson decays, i.e.
, and
-wave charmonium events per year can be obtained; and
, and -wave
-quarkonium events per year can be obtained. Main theoretical
uncertainties have also been discussed. By adding the uncertainties caused by
the quark masses in quadrature, we obtain KeV, KeV, KeV and eV.Comment: 24 pages, 12 figures. References updated. To be published in

Transcriptome Analysis of Metapenaeus affinis Reveals Genes Involved in Gonadal Development
Metapenaeus affinis is a crustacean with important commercial value in the fishery of the South China Sea. Overfishing has resulted in the decline of the wild population and germplasm degradation. However, there is little background knowledge about its gonadal development, and there is a lack of research on the development of this species. To better understand the molecular regulatory mechanisms during gonadal development, here, we performed RNA-Seq on immature and mature ovaries and compared their transcriptomic signatures. 126,930,488 and 122,677,356 clean sequencing reads were obtained from the Illumina sequencing platform, respectively. 394 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, of which 136 were up-regulated, and 258 were down-regulated. Further analysis revealed rich transcriptional sequences, which have homology with genes related to reproduction and development. Expression patterns of COX, GPX, E3s, PCNA, STPK, and other genes were changed during ovarian development. Validation by qRT-PCR demonstrated the reliability of RNA-Seq. This study has made a significant contribution to the currently available sequence data of M. affinis and provided reference data for the development of genetic and breeding work
Dynamical tunneling-assisted coupling of high-Q deformed microcavities using a free-space beam
We investigate the efficient free-space excitation of high-Q resonance modes in deformed microcavities via dynamical tunneling-assisted coupling. A quantum scattering theory is employed to study the free-space transmission properties, and it is found that the transmission includes the contribution from (1) the off-resonance background and (2) the on-resonance modulation, corresponding to the absence and presence of high-Q modes, respectively. The theory predicts asymmetric Fano-like resonances around high-Q modes in background transmission spectra, which are in good agreement with our recent experimental results. Dynamical tunneling across Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser tori, which plays an essential role in the Fano-like resonance, is further studied. This efficient free-space coupling holds potential advantages to simplify experimental conditions and excite high-Q modes in higher-index-material microcavities
