The analysis of the charmonium-like states X∗(3860)X^{*}(3860),X(3872)X(3872), X(3915)X(3915), X(3930)X(3930) and X(3940)X(3940) according to its strong decay behaviors

Inspired by the newly observed state $X^{*}(3860)$, we analyze the strong decay behaviors of some charmonium-like states $X^{*}(3860)$,$X(3872)$, $X(3915)$, $X(3930)$ and $X(3940)$ by the $^{3}P_{0}$ model. We carry out our work based on the hypothesis that these states are all being the charmonium systems. Our analysis indicates that $0^{++}$ charmonium state can be a good candidate for $X^{*}(3860)$ and $1^{++}$ state is the possible assignment for $X(3872)$. Considering as the $3^{1}S_{0}$ state, the decay behavior of $X(3940)$ is inconsistent with the experimental data. So, we can not assign $X(3940)$ as the $3^{1}S_{0}$ charmonium state by present work. Besides, our analysis imply that it is reasonable to assign $X(3915)$ and $X(3930)$ to be the same state, $2^{++}$. However, combining our analysis with that of Zhou~\cite{ZhouZY}, we speculate that $X(3915)$/$X(3930)$ might not be a pure $c\overline{c}$ systems

Strong coupling constants and radiative decays of the heavy tensor mesons

In this article, we analyze tensor-vector-pseudoscalar(TVP) type of vertices $D_{2}^{*+}D^{+}\rho$, $D_{2}^{*0}D^{0}\rho$, $D_{2}^{*+}D^{+}\omega$, $D_{2}^{*0}D^{0}\omega$, $B_{2}^{*+}B^{+}\rho$, $B_{2}^{*0}B^{0}\rho$, $B_{2}^{*+}B^{+}\omega$, $B_{2}^{*0}B^{0}\omega$, $B_{s2}^{*}B_{s}\phi$ and $D_{s2}^{*}D_{s}\phi$, 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 $Q^{2}$. 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 $Q^{2}=0$. 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 adde

Analysis of the strong coupling form factors of ΣbNB\Sigma_bNB and ΣcND\Sigma_c ND in QCD sum rules

In this article, we study the strong interaction of the vertexes $\Sigma_bNB$ and $\Sigma_c ND$ using the three-point QCD sum rules under two different dirac structures. Considering the contributions of the vacuum condensates up to dimension $5$ in the operation product expansion, the form factors of these vertexes are calculated. Then, we fit the form factors into analytical functions and extrapolate them into time-like regions, which giving the coupling constant. Our analysis indicates that the coupling constant for these two vertexes are $G_{\Sigma_bNB}=0.43\pm0.01GeV^{-1}$ and $G_{\Sigma_cND}=3.76\pm0.05GeV^{-1}$.Comment: 6 figure

Analysis of the charmed mesons D1∗(2680)D_{1}^{*}(2680), D3∗(2760)D_{3}^{*}(2760) and D2∗(3000)D_{2}^{*}(3000)

In this work, we systematically study the strong decay behaviors of the charmed mesons $D_{1}^{*}(2680)$, $D_{3}^{*}(2760)$ and $D_{2}^{*}(3000)$ reported by the LHCb collaboration. By comparing the masses and the decay properties with the results of the experiment, we assigned these newly observed mesons as the $2S\frac{1}{2}1^{-}$, $1D\frac{5}{2}3^{-}$ and $1F\frac{5}{2}2^{+}$ states respectively. As a byproduct, we also study the strong decays of the unobserved $2P\frac{3}{2}2^{+}$ and $2F\frac{5}{2}2^{+}$ charmed mesons, which is helpful to the future experiments in searching for these charmed mesons.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:0803.0106 by other author
