The analysis of the charmonium-like states ,, , and according to its strong decay behaviors
Inspired by the newly observed state , we analyze the strong
decay behaviors of some charmonium-like states ,,
, and by the model. We carry out our
work based on the hypothesis that these states are all being the charmonium
systems. Our analysis indicates that charmonium state can be a good
candidate for and state is the possible assignment for
. Considering as the state, the decay behavior of
is inconsistent with the experimental data. So, we can not assign
as the charmonium state by present work. Besides, our
analysis imply that it is reasonable to assign and to be
the same state, . However, combining our analysis with that of
Zhou~\cite{ZhouZY}, we speculate that / might not be a pure

Strong coupling constants and radiative decays of the heavy tensor mesons
In this article, we analyze tensor-vector-pseudoscalar(TVP) type of vertices
, , ,
, , ,
, , and
, in the frame work of three point QCD sum rules.
According to these analysis, we calculate their strong form factors which are
used to fit into analytical functions of . Then, we obtain the strong
coupling constants by extrapolating these strong form factors into deep
time-like regions. As an application of this work, the coupling constants for
radiative decays of these heavy tensor mesons are also calculated at the point
of . With these coupling constants, we finally calculate the radiative
decay widths of these tensor mesons.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1810.0597
Indirect unitarity violation entangled with matter effects in reactor antineutrino oscillations
If finite but tiny masses of the three active neutrinos are generated via the
canonical seesaw mechanism with three heavy sterile neutrinos, the 3\times 3
Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata neutrino mixing matrix V will not be exactly
unitary. This kind of indirect unitarity violation can be probed in a precision
reactor antineutrino oscillation experiment, but it may be entangled with
terrestrial matter effects as both of them are very small. We calculate the
probability of \overline{\nu}_e \to \overline{\nu}_e oscillations in a good
analytical approximation, and find that, besides the zero-distance effect, the
effect of unitarity violation is always smaller than matter effects, and their
entanglement does not appear until the next-to-leading-order oscillating terms
are taken into account. Given a 20-kiloton JUNO-like liquid scintillator
detector, we reaffirm that terrestrial matter effects should not be neglected
but indirect unitarity violation makes no difference, and demonstrate that the
experimental sensitivities to the neutrino mass ordering and a precision
measurement of \theta_{12} and \Delta_{21} \equiv m^2_2 - m^2_1 are robust.Comment: 21 pages, 6 figures, version to be published in PLB, more discussions
