Mixing among light scalar mesons and L=1 q\bar{q} scalar mesons
Following the re-establishment of the \sigma(600) and the \kappa(900), the
light scalar mesons a_0(980) and f_0(980) together with the \sigma(600) and the
\kappa(900) are considered as the chiral scalar partner of pseudoscalar nonet
in SU(3) chiral symmetry, and the high mass scalar mesons a_0(1450),
K^*_0(1430), f_0(1370) and f_0(1710) turned out to be considered as the L=1
q\bar{q} scalar mesons. We assume that the high mass of the L=1 q\bar{q} scalar
mesons is caused by the mixing with the light scalar mesons. For the structure
of the light scalar mesons, we adopted the qq\bar{q}\bar{q} model in order to
explain the "scalar meson puzzle". The inter-mixing between the light scalar
nonet and the high mass L=1 q\bar{q} nonet and the intra-mixing among each
nonet are analyzed by including the glueball into the high mass scalar nonet.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figure
Mott transition in two-dimensional frustrated compounds
The phase diagrams of isotropic and anisotropic triangular lattices with
local Coulomb interactions are evaluated within cluster dynamical mean field
theory. As a result of partial geometric frustration in the anisotropic
lattice, short range correlations are shown to give rise to reentrant behavior
which is absent in the fully frustrated isotropic limit. The qualitative
features of the phase diagrams including the critical temperatures are in good
agreement with experimental data for the layered organic charge transfer salts
kappa-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu[N(CN)_2]Cl and kappa-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu_2(CN)_3.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Flat-band excitonic states in Kagome lattice on semiconductor surface
Excitonic properties in the Kagome lattice system, which is produced by
quantum wires on semiconductor surfaces, are investigated by using the exact
diagonalization of a tight binding model. It is shown that due to the existence
of flat bands the binding energy of exciton becomes remarkably large in the
two-dimensional Kagome lattice compared to that in one-dimensional lattice, and
the exciton Bohr radius is quite small as large as a lattice constant. We also
discuss the magnetic field effects on the exciton binding energy and the
stability of exciton against the creation of charged exciton and biexciton.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
Superconducting anisotropy and evidence for intrinsic pinning in single crystalline MgB
We examine the superconducting anisotropy
of a metallic high- superconductor MgB by measuring the magnetic
torque of a single crystal. The anisotropy does not depend
sensitively on the applied magnetic field at 10 K. We obtain the anisotropy
parameter . The torque curve shows the sharp
hysteresis peak when the field is applied parallel to the boron layers. This
comes from the intrinsic pinning and is experimental evidence for the
occurrence of superconductivity in the boron layers.Comment: REVTeX 4, To be published in Physical Review
On the nature of light scalar mesons from their large behavior
We show how to obtain information about the states of an effective field
theory in terms of the underlying fundamental theory. In particular we analyze
the spectroscopic nature of meson resonances from the meson-meson scattering
amplitudes of the QCD low energy effective theory, combined with the expansion
in the large number of colors. The vectors follow a qqbar behavior, whereas the
sigma, kappa and f_0(980) scalars disappear for large N_c, in support of a
qqqbarqbar-like nature. The a_0 shows a similar pattern, but the uncertainties
are large enough to accommodate both interpretations.Comment: 4 pages. Slightly shortened version to appear in Phys. Rev. Lett. Two

Effects to Scalar Meson Decays of Strong Mixing between Low and High Mass Scalar Mesons
We analyze the mass spectroscopy of low and high mass scalar mesons and get
the result that the coupling strengths of the mixing between low and high mass
scalar mesons are very strong and the strengths of mixing for scalar
mesons and those of I=0 scalar mesons are almost same. Next, we analyze the
decay widths and decay ratios of these mesons and get the results that the
coupling constants for which represents the coupling of high
mass scalar meson -> two pseudoscalar mesons are almost same as the
coupling for the I=0. On the other hand, the coupling constant for
which represents the low mass scalar meson -> are far
from the coupling constant for I=0. We consider a resolution for this
discrepancy. Coupling constant for glueball -> is smaller than
the coupling . is .Comment: 15 pages, 6 figure
Evidence for Strong-coupling S-wave Superconductivity in MgB2 :11B NMR Study
We have investigated a gap structure in a newly-discovered superconductor,
MgB2 through the measurement of 11B nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate,
^{11}(1/T_1). ^{11}(1/T_1) is proportional to the temperature (T) in the normal
state, and decreases exponentially in the superconducting (SC) state, revealing
a tiny coherence peak just below T_c. The T dependence of 1/T_1 in the SC state
can be accounted for by an s-wave SC model with a large gap size of 2\Delta
/k_BT_c \sim 5 which suggests to be in a strong-coupling regime.Comment: 2 pages with 1 figur
Detectability of the First Cosmic Explosions
We present a fully self-consistent simulation of a synthetic survey of the
furthermost cosmic explosions. The appearance of the first generation of stars
(Population III) in the Universe represents a critical point during cosmic
evolution, signaling the end of the dark ages, a period of absence of light
sources. Despite their importance, there is no confirmed detection of
Population III stars so far. A fraction of these primordial stars are expected
to die as pair-instability supernovae (PISNe), and should be bright enough to
be observed up to a few hundred million years after the big bang. While the
quest for Population III stars continues, detailed theoretical models and
computer simulations serve as a testbed for their observability. With the
upcoming near-infrared missions, estimates of the feasibility of detecting
PISNe are not only timely but imperative. To address this problem, we combine
state-of-the-art cosmological and radiative simulations into a complete and
self-consistent framework, which includes detailed features of the
observational process. We show that a dedicated observational strategy using
per cent of total allocation time of the James Webb Space
Telescope mission can provide us up to detectable PISNe per year.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figures. Minor corrections added to match published
