NLO QCD Corrections to $B_c$-to-Charmonium Form Factors

The $B_c(^1S_0)$ meson to S-wave Charmonia transition form factors are calculated in next-to-leading order(NLO) accuracy of Quantum Chromodynamics(QCD). Our results indicate that the higher order corrections to these form factors are remarkable, and hence are important to the phenomenological study of the corresponding processes. For the convenience of comparison and use, the relevant expressions in asymptotic form at the limit of $m_c\rightarrow0$ for the radiative corrections are presented.

W Boson Inclusive Decays to Quarkonium at the LHC

In this paper, the production rates of quarkonia eta_c, J/psi, eta_b, Upsilon, B_c and B_c^* through W boson decay at the LHC are calculated, at the leading order in both the QCD coupling constant and in v, the typical velocity of the heavy quark inside of mesons. It shows that a sizable number of quarkonia from W boson decay will be produced at the LHC. Comparison with the predictions by using quark fragmentation mechanism is also discussed. Results show that, for the charmonium production through W decay, the difference between predictions by the fragmentation mechanism and complete leading order calculation is around 3%, and it is insensitive to the uncertainties of theoretical parameters; however, for the bottomonium and B_c^(*) productions, the difference cannot be ignored as the fragmentation mechanism is less applicable here due to the relatively large ratio mb/mw.

Study of Doubly Heavy Baryon Spectrum via QCD Sum Rules

In this work, we calculate the mass spectrum of doubly heavy baryons with the diquark model in terms of the QCD sum rules. The interpolating currents are composed of a heavy diquark field and a light quark field. Contributions of the operators up to dimension six are taken into account in the operator product expansion. Within a reasonable error tolerance, our numerical results are compatible with other theoretical predictions. This indicates that the diquark picture reflects the reality and is applicable to the study of doubly heavy baryons.

Local Unitary Classification of Arbitrary Dimensional Multipartite Pure States

We propose a practical entanglement classification scheme for general multipartite pure states in arbitrary dimensions under local unitary equivalence by exploiting the high order singular value decomposition technique and local symmetries of the states. By virtue of this scheme, the method of determining the local unitary equivalence of $n$-qubit states proposed by Kraus is extended to the case for arbitrary dimensional multipartite states.

Classification of the Entangled states L\times N\times N

We presented a general classification scheme for the tripartite $L\times N\times N$ entangled system under stochastic local operation and classical communication. The whole classification procedure consists of two correlated parts: the simultaneous similarity transformation of a commuting matrix pair into a canonical form and the study of internal symmetry of parameters in the canonical form. Based on this scheme, a concrete example of entanglement classification for a $3\times N\times N$ system is given.

Scalable Generation and Characterization of a Four-Photon Twelve-Qubit Hyperentangled State

An experimentally feasible scheme for generating a 12-qubit hyperentangled state via four photons, entangled in polarization, frequency and spatial mode, is proposed. We study the nature of quantum non-locality of this hyperentangled state by evaluating its violation degree to a Bell-type inequality, and find that the result agrees well with quantum mechanics prediction while extremely contradicts to the local realism constraint.

Determining $1^{--}$ Heavy Hybrid Masses via QCD Sum Rules

The masses of $1^{--}$ charmonium and bottomonium hybrids are evaluated in terms of QCD sum rules. We find that the ground state hybrid in charm sector lies in $m_{H_c}=4.12\sim 4.79$ GeV, while in bottom sector the hybrid may situated in $m_{H_b} = 10.24\sim 11.15$ GeV. Since the numerical result on charmonium hybrid mass is not compatible with the charmonium spectra, including structures newly observed in experiment, we tempt to conclude that such a hybrid does not purely exist, but rather as an admixture with other states, like glueball and regular quarkonium, in experimental observation. However, our result on bottomonium hybrid coincide with the "exotic structure" recently observed at BELLE.

The NLO QCD Corrections to $B_c$ Meson Production in $Z^0$ Decays

The decay width of $Z^0$ to $B_c$ meson is evaluated at the next-to-leading order(NLO) accuracy in strong interaction. Numerical calculation shows that the NLO correction to this process is remarkable. The quantum chromodynamics(QCD)renormalization scale dependence of the results is obviously depressed, and hence the uncertainties lying in the leading order calculation are reduced.

The Parametric Symmetry and Numbers of the Entangled Class of 2 \times M \times N System

We present in the work two intriguing results in the entanglement classification of pure and true tripartite entangled state of $2\times M\times N$ under stochastic local operation and classical communication. (i) the internal symmetric properties of the nonlocal parameters in the continuous entangled class; (ii) the analytic expression for the total numbers of the true and pure entangled class $2\times M \times N$ states. These properties help people to know more of the nature of the $2\times M\times N$ entangled system.

Pseudoscalar Quarkonium Exclusive Decays to Vector Meson Pair

The pseudoscalar quarkonia exclusive decays to light mesons still poses a challenge to the theoretical understanding of quarkonium properties in decay. In this work, we evaluate the processes of pseudoscalar heavy quarkonium decays into vector meson pairs, especially the helicity suppressed processes of $η_b\rightarrow J/ψJ/ψ$ and $η_c\rightarrow VV$. In the frame of NRQCD, the branching fraction of $Br[η_b\rightarrow J/ψJ/ψ]$ are evaluated at the next-to-leading order of perturbative QCD; and within the light-cone distribution formalism, we calculate also the higher twist effects in these processes. Numerical results show that the higher twist terms contribute more than what from the NLO QCD corrections in the process of $η_b\rightarrow J/ψJ/ψ$. It is found that the experimental results on $η_c\rightarrow VV$ are hard to be understood by merely the quark model and perturbative QCD calculation.

Testing Charmonium Production Mechanism via Polarized $J/ψ$ Pair Production at the LHC

At present the color-octet mechanism is still an important and debatable part in the non-relativistic QCD(NRQCD). We find in this work that the polarized double charmonium production at the LHC may pose a stringent test on the charmonium production mechanism. Result shows that the transverse momentum($p_T$) scaling behaviors of double $J/ψ$ differential cross sections in color-singlet and -octet production mechanisms deviate distinctively from each other while $p_T$ is larger than 7 GeV. In color-octet mechanism, the two $J/ψ$s in one pair are mostly transversely polarized when $p_T\gg 2 m_c$, as expected from the fragmentation limit point of view. In color-singlet mechanism, there is about one half of the charmonium pairs with at least one $J/ψ$ being longitudinally polarized at moderate transverse momentum. The energy dependence of the polarized $J/ψ$ pair production is found to be weak, and this process is found to be experimentally attainable in the early phase of the LHC operation.

The decay widths of top quark to S-wave $b\bar{c}$ and $b\bar{b}$ bound states are evaluated at the next-to-leading(NLO) accuracy in strong interaction. Numerical calculation shows that the NLO corrections to these processes are remarkable. The quantum chromodynamics(QCD) renormalization scale dependence of the results are obviously depressed, and hence the uncertainties lying in the leading order calculation are reduced.

Testing Local Realism in $P \to VV$ Decays

It was found that the vector meson pair from the pseudoscalar decays can form an entangled state. In this work we give out detailed explanations on the polarization correlation of the two entangled vector mesons. It is demonstrated that an experimental test of the Clauser-Horne inequality can be carried out through measuring the azimuthal distribution of four pseudoscalars in the cascade decay $η_c \to VV \to (PP)(PP)$, and the measurement of this process is feasible with the current running experiments in tau-charm factory. Moreover, a brief discussion on the polarization correlation of the two vector mesons from $B \to VV$ decays is also presented.

New Possibilities for Testing Local Realism in High Energy Physics

The three photons from the dominant ortho-positronium decay and two vector mesons from the $η_c$ exclusive decays are found to be in tripartite and high-dimensional entangled states, respectively. These two classes of entangled states possess the Hardy type nonlocality and allow a priori for quantum mechanics vs local realism test via Bell inequalities. The experimental realizations are shown to be feasible, and a concrete scheme to fulfill the test in experiment via two-vector-meson entangled state is proposed.

The Fragmentation Function of Gluon Splitting into P-wave Spin-singlet Heavy Quarkonium

The gluon fragmentation function of $g \to h_c$ at leading order of strong coupling constant $α_s$ and typical velocity $v$ is calculated in the framework of NRQCD, of which the contributions from both color-singlet and -octet processes are taken into account and hence the result is infrared safe. It is found that the fragmentation probability of a high energy virtual gluon to split into $h_c$ is about $7.1\times 10^{-7}$. The analytic fragmentation function presented in this work can be employed to the study of $h_c$ production in large transverse momentum at hadron colliders, such as Large Hadron Collider(LHC), and is also applicable for the study of $h_b$ hadronproduction.

Classification of the Entangled States of $2 \times N \times N$

We develop a novel method in classifying the multipartite entanglement state of $2\times N\times N$ under stochastic local operation and classical communication. In this method, all inequivalent classes of true entangled state can be assorted directly without knowing the classification information of lower dimension ones for any given dimension $N$. It also gives a nature explanation for the non-local parameters remaining in the entanglement classes while $N\geq 4$ .

Detecting h_c(^1P_1) at the LHC

In this work, we calculate the $h_c(^1P_1)$ production rate at the LHC to leading order of the strong coupling constant, for both color-singlet and -octet mechanisms. Numerical results show that a considerable number of $h_c$ events with moderate transverse momentum $p_T$ will be produced in the early run of the LHC, which will supply a good opportunity to further study the nature of this P-wave spin-singlet charmonium state.
