Reexamining the "finite-size" effects in isobaric yield ratios using a statistical abrasion-ablation model
The "finite-size" effects in the isobaric yield ratio (IYR), which are shown
in the standard grand-canonical and canonical statistical ensembles (SGC/CSE)
method, is claimed to prevent obtaining the actual values of physical
parameters. The conclusion of SGC/CSE maybe questionable for neutron-rich
nucleus induced reaction. To investigate whether the IYR has "finite-size"
effects, the IYR for the mirror nuclei [IYR(m)] are reexamined using a modified
statistical abrasion-ablation (SAA) model. It is found when the projectile is
not so neutron-rich, the IYR(m) depends on the isospin of projectile, but the
size dependence can not be excluded. In reactions induced by the very
neutron-rich projectiles, contrary results to those of the SGC/CSE models are
obtained, i.e., the dependence of the IYR(m) on the size and the isospin of the
projectile is weakened and disappears both in the SAA and the experimental
results.Comment: 5 pages and 4 figure
Probing CP-violating Higgs contributions in gamma-gamma -> f anti-f through fermion polarization
We discuss the use of fermion polarization for studying neutral Higgs bosons
at a photon collider. To this aim we construct polarization asymmetries which
can isolate the contribution of a Higgs boson in , , from that of the QED continuum. This can help in getting
information on the coupling in case is a CP
eigenstate. We also construct CP-violating asymmetries which can probe CP
mixing in case has indeterminate CP. Furthermore, we take the MSSM with
CP violation as an example to demonstrate the potential of these asymmetries in
a numerical analysis. We find that these asymmetries are sensitive to the
presence of a Higgs boson as well as its CP properties over a wide range of
MSSM parameters. In particular, the method suggested can cover the region where
a light Higgs boson may have been missed by LEP due to CP violation in the
Higgs sector, and may be missed as well at the LHC.Comment: 14 pages, 14 figures, typeset in revtex4. Version which has appeared

A survey on gain-scheduled control and filtering for parameter-varying systems
Copyright © 2014 Guoliang Wei et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.This paper presents an overview of the recent developments in the gain-scheduled control and filtering problems for the parameter-varying systems. First of all, we recall several important algorithms suitable for gain-scheduling method including gain-scheduled proportional-integral derivative (PID) control, H 2, H ∞ and mixed H 2 / H ∞ gain-scheduling methods as well as fuzzy gain-scheduling techniques. Secondly, various important parameter-varying system models are reviewed, for which gain-scheduled control and filtering issues are usually dealt with. In particular, in view of the randomly occurring phenomena with time-varying probability distributions, some results of our recent work based on the probability-dependent gain-scheduling methods are reviewed. Furthermore, some latest progress in this area is discussed. Finally, conclusions are drawn and several potential future research directions are outlined.The National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61074016, 61374039, 61304010, and 61329301; the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grant BK20130766; the Program for Professor of Special Appointment (Eastern Scholar) at Shanghai Institutions of Higher Learning; the Program for New Century Excellent Talents in University under Grant NCET-11-1051, the Leverhulme Trust of the U.K., the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
Binary Nonlinearization of Lax pairs of Kaup-Newell Soliton Hierarchy
Kaup-Newell soliton hierarchy is derived from a kind of Lax pairs different
from the original ones. Binary nonlinearization procedure corresponding to the
Bargmann symmetry constraint is carried out for those Lax pairs. The proposed
Lax pairs together with adjoint Lax pairs are constrained as a hierarchy of
commutative, finite dimensional integrable Hamiltonian systems in the Liouville
sense, which also provides us with new examples of finite dimensional
integrable Hamiltonian systems. A sort of involutive solutions to the
Kaup-Newell hierarchy are exhibited through the obtained finite dimensional
integrable systems and the general involutive system engendered by binary
nonlinearization is reduced to a specific involutive system generated by
mono-nonlinearization.Comment: 15 pages, plain+ams tex, to be published in Il Nuovo Cimento
A Coupled AKNS-Kaup-Newell Soliton Hierarchy
A coupled AKNS-Kaup-Newell hierarchy of systems of soliton equations is
proposed in terms of hereditary symmetry operators resulted from Hamiltonian
pairs. Zero curvature representations and tri-Hamiltonian structures are
established for all coupled AKNS-Kaup-Newell systems in the hierarchy.
Therefore all systems have infinitely many commuting symmetries and
conservation laws. Two reductions of the systems lead to the AKNS hierarchy and
the Kaup-Newell hierarchy, and thus those two soliton hierarchies also possess
tri-Hamiltonian structures.Comment: 15 pages, late
Isoscaling in the Lattice Gas Model
The isoscaling behavior is investigated using the isotopic/isobaric yields
from the equilibrated thermal source which is prepared by the lattice gas model
for lighter systems with A = 36. The isoscaling parameters and
- are observed to drop with temperature. The difference of neutron and
proton chemical potential shows a turning point around 5 MeV where the liquid
gas phase transition occurs in the model. The relative free neutron or proton
density shows a nearly linear relation with the N/Z (neutron to proton ratio)
of system and the isospin fractionation is observed.Comment: 5 figures, 5 pages; the final version to appear in Phys Rev
