Pseudogap effects on the c-axis charge dynamics in copper oxide materials

The c-axis charge dynamics of copper oxide materials in the underdoped and optimally doped regimes has been studied by considering the incoherent interlayer hopping. It is shown that the c-axis charge dynamics for the chain copper oxide materials is mainly governed by the scattering from the in-plane fluctuation, and the c-axis charge dynamics for the no-chain copper oxide materials is dominated by the scattering from the in-plane fluctuation incorporating with the interlayer disorder, which would be suppressed when the holon pseudogap opens at low temperatures and lower doping levels, leading to the crossovers to the semiconducting-like range in the c-axis resistivity and the temperature linear to the nonlinear range in the in-plane resistivity.

Inelastic $J/ψ$ production in polarized photon-hadron collisions

Presented here is a calculation of inelastic $J/ψ$ production in polarized photon-hadron collisions under the framework of NRQCD factorization formalism. We consider the photoproduction of $\jpsi$ in the energy range relevant to HERA. The Weizsäcker-Williams approximation is adopted in the evaluation of the cross sections for $ep$ collisions. We found that this process can give another independent test for the color-octet mechanism, and the different features for the two color-octet processes may provide further informations on the mechanism for inelastic $\jpsi$ photoproduction. And the discrepancy on the production asymmetry $A$ between various sets of polarized gluon distribution functions is also found to be distinctive.

Diffractive charm jet production at hadron colliders in the two-gluon exchange model

We present a calculation of diffractive charm jet production at hadron colliders in perturbative QCD based on the two-gluon exchange model. Differing from the previous calculations, we abandon the use of the effective color-singlet vitual gluon simplification, and use the real gluon in the calculations for the partonic process. We find the final result is free of the linear singularities due to the small transverse momenta of the exchanged two gluons. In the leading logarithmic approximation (LLA) in QCD, this process is related to the off-diagonal gluon density in the proton. As a result, this process may provide a wide window for testing the two-gluon exchange model, and may be particularly useful in studying the small $x$ physics. In comparison, the diffractive bottom jet production is also discussed, and is found to be important only for large transverse momentum of the jet.

Quark initiated coherent diffractive production of muon pair and W boson at hadron colliders

The large transverse momentum muon pair and W boson productions in the quark initiated coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders are discussed under the framework of the two-gluon exchange parametrization of the Pomeron model. In this approach, the production cross sections are related to the small-x off-diagonal gluon distribution and the large-x quark distribution in the proton (antiproton). By approximating the off-diagonal gluon distribution by the usual gluon distribution function, we estimate the production rates of these processes at the Fermilab Tevatron.

Accretion flows: the Role of the Outer Boundary Condition

We investigate the influences of the outer boundary conditions(OBCs) on the structure of an optically thin accretion flow. We find that OBC plays an important role in determining the topological structure and the profiles of the surface density and temperature of the solution, therefore it should be regarded as a new parameter in the accretion disk model.

Diffractive light quark jet and gluon jet production at hadron colliders in the two-gluon exchange model

Massless diquark jet and gluon jet productions at large transverse momentum in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders are studied in the two-gluon exchange parametrization of the Pomeron model. We use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the cross section formulas. We find that for the light quark jet and gluon jet production the diffractive process is related to t he differential off-diagonal gluon distribution function in the proton. We estimate the production rate for these processes at the Fermilab Tevatron by approximating the off-diagonal gluon distribution function by the usual diagonal gluon distribution in the proton. We also use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the diffractive charm jet production at hadron colliders, by which we reproduce the leading logarithmic approximation result of this process we previously calculated.

Global Dynamics of Advection-Dominated Accretion Revisited

We numerically solve the set of dynamical equations describing advection-dominated accretion flows (ADAF) around black holes, using a method similar to that of Chakrabarti (1996a). We choose the sonic radius of the flow $R_s$ and the integration constant in angular momentum equation $j$ as free parameters, and integrate the equations from the sonic point inwards to see if the solution can extend supersonically to the black hole horizon, and outwards to see if and where an acceptable outer boundary of the flow can be found. We recover the ADAF-thin disk solution constructed in Narayan, Kato, & Honma (1997, NKH97), an representative paper of the previous works on global ADAF solutions, although in that paper an apparently very different procedure was adopted. We obtain a complete picture in the form of $R_s-j$ parameter space which sums up the situation of ADAF solution at a glance. For comparison we also present the distribution of global solutions for inviscid flows in the $R_s-j$ space, which supports the view that there should be some similarities between the dynamical behavior of ADAF and that of adiabatic flows, and that there should be a continuous change from the properties of viscous flows to those of inviscid ones.

Diffractive light quark jet production at hadron colliders in the two-gluon exchange model

Massless quark and antiquark jet production at large transverse momentum in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders is calculated in the two-gluon exchange parametrization of the Pomeron model. We use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the cross section formula. We find that for the light quark jet production the diffractive process is related to the differential off-diagonal gluon distribution function in the proton. We estimate the production rate for this process at the Fermilab Tevatron by approximating the off-diagonal gluon distribution function by the usual diagonal gluon distribution in the proton. And we find that the cross sections for the diffractive light quark jet production and the charm quark jet production are in the same order of magnitude. We also use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the diffractive charm jet production at hadron colliders, by which we reproduce the leading logarithmic approximation result of this process we previously calculated.

Diffractive gluon jet production at hadron colliders in the two-gluon exchange model

Following our recent paper on the calculations of diffractive quark jet production at hadron colliders, we present here the calculations of gluon jet production at hadron colliders in the two-gluon exchange parameterization of the Pomeron model. We use the helicity amplitude method to calculate the cross section formula. We find that for the gluon jet production the diffractive process is related to the differential off-diagonal gluon distribution function in the proton. We estimate the production rate for this process at the Fermilab Tevatron by approximating the off-diagonal gluon distribution function by the usual diagonal gluon distribution.

Large transverse momentum direct photon production in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders

Direct photon production at large transverse momentum in the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders is calculated in the two-gluon exchange model. We find that the amplitude for the production process is related to the differential off-diagonal gluon distribution function in the proton. We estimate the production rate at the Fermilab Tevatron by approximately using the usual gluon distribution function. Because of the clean signature, this process can be used to detailed study the small-x physics, and the coherent diffractive processes at hadron colliders.

Some Remarks on the Final State Interactions in $B\to πK$ Decays

Careful discussions are made on some points which are met in studying B decay final state interactions, taking the $B^0\to π^+ K^-$ process as an example. We point out that $π$--exchange rescatterings are not important, whereas for $D^*$ and $D^{**}$ exchanges, since the $B^0\to D^+D_s^-$ decay has a large branching ratio their contributions may be large enough to enhance the $B\to πK$ branching ratio significantly. However our estimates fail to predict a large enhancement.

Photoproduction of $η_c$ in NRQCD

We present a calculation for the photoproduction of $η_c$ under the framework of NRQCD factorization formalism. We find a quite unique feature that the color-singlet contribution to this process vanishes at not only the leading order but also the next to leading order perturbative QCD calculations and that the dominant contribution comes from the color-octet ${}^1S_0^{(8)}$ subprocess. The nonperturbative color-octet matrix element of ${}^1S_0^{(8)}$ of $η_c$ is related to that of ${}^3S_1^{(8)}$ of $J/ψ$ by the heavy quark spin symmetry, and the latter can be determined from the direct production of $J/ψ$ at large transverse momentum at the Fermilib Tevatron. We then conclude that the measurement of this process may clarify the existing conflict between the color-octet prediction and the experimental result on the $J/ψ$ photoprodution.

Studying High Energy Final State Interactions by N/D Method

We discuss the final state interaction effects at high energies via a multi-channel N/D method. We find that the 2 by 2 charge--exchange final state interactions typically contribute an enhancement factor of a few times $10^{-2}$ in the $B$ meson decay amplitudes, both for the real and the imaginary part. We also make some discussions on the elastic rescattering effects.

D-wave heavy quarkonium production in fixed target experiments

We calculate the $D$-wave heavy quarkonium production at fixed target experiments under the NRQCD factorization formalism. We find that the color octet contributions are two orders of magnitude larger than color-singlet contributions if color-octet matrix elements are taken according to the NRQCD velocity scaling rules. Within the theoretical uncertainties, the prediction for the production rate of $2^{--}$ $D$-wave charmonium state agrees with the preliminary result of E705 and other experiments. Searching for the $1^{--}$ $D$-wave state $ψ(3770)$ is further suggested.

Diffractive $\jpsi$ production through Color-Octet mechanism at hadron colliders

We propose the color-octet mechanism combined with the two gluon exchange model for the diffractive $J/ψ$ production in hadron collisions. In the leading logarithmic approximation (LLA) in QCD, we find that the diffractive $J/ψ$ production rate is related to the off-diagonal gluon density in the proton and to the nonperturbative color-octet matrix element of $J/ψ$. The rate is found to be very sensitive to the gluon density at very small values of $x$ (down to $x=O(10^{-6})$). As a result, this process may provide a wide window for testing the two-gluon exchange model, and may be particularly useful in studying the small $x$ physics. And it may also be a golden place to test the color-octet mechanism proposed by solving the $ψ'(J/ψ)$ surplus problem at the Tevatron.

Quarkonium production in SM Higgs decays

We investigate the SM Higgs decays into heavy quarkonia J/ψand Υin both color-singlet and color-octet mechanisms. It is found that in J/ψproduction the contribution through color-octet processes overwhelm that in color-singlet processes all the intermediate region M_Z<M_{H^0}<2 M_w and the fraction ratio is comparatively large, but in Υproduction the contribution through color-octet mechanism is negligible.

Gluon fragmentation to $^3D_J$ quarkonium and test of color-octet production mechanism

We report the recent progress in the studies of D-wave heavy quarkonia production from gluon fragmentation at the Tevatron and in Z^0 decays, and the D-wave charmonia production in B decays. We show that the color-octet contributions are of crucial importance to the production of D-wave quarkonia. Signals, as strong as that for J/ψand ψ^\prime, should be seen for the D-wave charmonium in the processes. These will provide a test of the color-octet production mechanism.

Diffractive J/psi production as a probe of the gluon component in the Pomeron

Presented here is a study of the large p_T J/psi production in hard diffractive process by the pomeron exchange at the Fermilab Tevatron. We find that this process (p\bar p \to p+J/psi+X) can be used to probe the gluon content of the pomeron and to measure the gluon fraction of the pomeron. And the diffractive direct J/psi production can also provide another crucial test for the color-octet fragmentation mechanism. Using the renormalised pomeron flux factor D\approx 1/9, the single diffractive J/psi production cross section at large p_T (\geq 8GeV) is found to be of order of 0.01 nb, and the ratio of the single diffractive to the non-diffractive J/psi production is 0.65\pm 0.15% for the gluon fraction f_g=0.7\pm 0.2.
