Top-Quark Mass Measurement in the Dilepton Channel Using {\it in situ} Jet Energy Scale Calibration
We employ a top-quark mass measurement technique in the dilepton channel with
{\it in situ} jet energy scale calibration. Three variables having different
jet energy scale dependences are used simultaneously to extract not only the
top-quark mass but also the energy scale of the jet from a single likelihood
fit. Monte Carlo studies with events corresponding to an integrated luminosity
of 5 fb proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider TeV are performed. Our analysis suggests that the overall jet energy scale
uncertainty can be significantly reduced and the top-quark mass can be
determined with a precision of less than 1 GeV/c, including jet energy
scale uncertainty, at the Large Hadron Collider.Comment: Submitted to Phys. Rev.
Resonant Raman scattering of quantum wire in strong magnetic field
The resonant Raman scattering of a quantum wire in a strong magnetic field is
studied, focused on the effect of long range Coulomb interaction and the
spin-charge separation. The energy-momentum dispersions of charge and spin
excitation obtained from Raman cross-section show the characteristc cross-over
behaviour induced by inter-edge Coulomb interaction. The "SPE" peak near
resonance in polarized spectra becomes broad due to the momentum dependence of
charge velocity. The broad peak in the depolarized spectra is shown to
originate from the disparity between charge and spin excitation velocity.Comment: RevTex file, 6 pages, no figure: To appear in Int. Jour. Mod. Phys.
Two-pion-exchange parity-violating potential and
We calculate the parity-violating nucleon-nucleon potential in heavy-baryon
chiral perturbation theory up to the next-to-next-to-leading order. The
one-pion exchange comes in the leading order and the next-to-next-to-leading
order consists of two-pion-exchange and the two-nucleon contact terms. In order
to investigate the effect of the higher order contributions, we calculate the
parity-violating asymmetry in at the threshold. The
one-pion dominates the physical observable and the two-pion contribution is
about or less than 10% of the one-pion contribution.Comment: 3 pages, contribution to the workshop PAVI06 held in Milos island,

Parity Nonconservation in the Photodisintegration of the Deuteron at Low Energy
The parity-nonconserving asymmetry in the deuteron photodisintegration,
, is considered with the photon energy ranged up to 10
MeV above the threshold. The aim is to improve upon a schematic estimate
assuming the absence of tensor as well as spin-orbit forces in the
nucleon-nucleon interaction. The major contributions are due to the
vector-meson exchanges, and the strong suppression of the pion-exchange
contribution is confirmed. A simple argument, going beyond the observation of
an algebraic cancellation, is presented. Contributions of meson-exchange
currents are also considered, but found to be less significant.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figures, typeset by REVTeX (two-column format) and BIBTe
Parity violation in scattering and vector-meson weak-coupling constants
We calculate the parity-nonconserving longitudinal asymmetry in the elastic
scattering at the energies where experimental data are available.
In addition to the standard one-meson exchange weak potential, the variation of
the strong-coupling constants and the non-standard effects such as form factors
and -exchange description of the -exchange potential are taken
into account. With the extra effects, we investigate the compatibility of the
experimental data and the presently-known range of the vector-meson
weak-coupling constants.Comment: Contribution to the proceedings of the 3rd Asia-Pacific conference on
