$b\to c \bar u q$ decay and CP violating observables in the presence of new physics contributions

In this work, a comprehensive analysis for processes related to $b\to c\bar{u}q~(q=d, s)$ transitions are carried out, including new physics contributions. In light of a recent tension between branching fractions for $B_{(s)}\to D_{(s)}^{(*)}M$ ($M$ represents a meson) decays in the QCD factorization approach and relevant experimental results, phenomenological constraints on complex-valued Wilson coeffients are discussed. Analyzed observables contain direct CP asymmetry ($A_{\text{CP}}$) in $B^-\to D^0\pi^-$ decays and $\gamma/\phi_3$, one of the angles in the unitarity triangle, combined with others from $\tau_{B^+}/\tau_{B_d}$, $\Delta\Gamma_{q}/\Gamma_q$, and $A_{\rm SL}^{q}~(q=d, s)$. We constrain the complex Wilson coefficients at $1\sigma$ and $2\sigma$ levels under color-singlet and color-rearranged scenarios. These constraints yield correlated predictions for $\Delta\Gamma_d/\Gamma_d$, $A_{\rm SL}^d$ and $A_{\text{CP}}$.

$D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing in the Dyson-Schwinger approach

In view of difficulty to reproduce observables in the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing via the operator product expansion, we discuss the Dyson-Schwinger approach to this process. Formulated by the parametrization of quark propagators, SU(3) breaking relevant to charm mixing is evaluated in such a way that properly takes account of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking. The $\bar{D}^0\to D^0$ transition is discussed in the vacuum-insertion approximation with locality of the light valence-quark field, represented by the decay constant of $D^0$ meson as well as relevant momentum integrals. It is found that dimensionless mass-difference observable in this approach leads to $|x|=(1.3-2.9)\times 10^{-3}$, the order of magnitude comparable to the HFLAV data, and thereby offering a certain improvement as a theoretical framework.

$B\to X_c\ell\bar{\nu}$ Decay as a Probe of Complex Conjugate Poles

In this work, nontrivial analytic structure of the quark propagator is discussed for $B$-meson inclusive decays. Attributed to invalidity of the standard K\"{a}ll\'{e}n-Lehman spectral representation, complex conjugate poles alter the evaluation of decay rates, which lead to violation of quark-hadron duality. As phenomenological observables, widths in $B\to X_c\ell\bar{\nu}$ decay as well as the lifetime of the $B_d^0$ meson are discussed. In the presence of the mentioned nonanalytical contributions, the possibility for resolving the $|V_{cb}|$ puzzle is addressed. It is demonstrated that there exists a parameter region, which explains $|V_{cb}|$ and $B_d^0$-meson lifetime simultaneously within 1$\sigma$ via the complex conjugate poles from a charm quark.

Adaptive Molecular Resolution Approach in Hamiltonian Form: An Asymptotic Analysis

Adaptive Molecular Resolution approaches in Molecular Dynamics are becoming relevant tools for the analysis of molecular liquids characterized by the interplay of different physical scales. The essential difference among these methods is in the way the change of molecular resolution is made in a buffer/transition region. In particular a central question concerns the possibility of the existence of a global Hamiltonian which, by describing the change of resolution, is at the same time physically consistent, mathematically well defined and numerically accurate. In this paper we present an asymptotic analysis of the adaptive process complemented by numerical results and show that under certain mathematical conditions a Hamiltonian, which is physically consistent and numerically accurate, may exist. Such conditions show that molecular simulations in the current computational implementation require systems of large size and thus a Hamiltonian approach as the one proposed, at this stage, would not be practical from the numerical point of view. However, the Hamiltonian proposed provides the basis for a simplification and generalization of the numerical implementation of adaptive resolution algorithms to other molecular dynamics codes.

Molecular Dynamics in a Grand Ensemble: Bergmann-Lebowitz model and Adaptive Resolution Simulation

This article deals with the molecular dynamics simulation of open systems that can exchange energy and matter with a reservoir; the physics of the reservoir and its interactions with the system are described by the model introduced by Bergmann and Lebowitz.Despite its conceptual appeal, the model did not gain popularity in the field of molecular simulation and, as a consequence, did not play a role in the development of open system molecular simulation techniques, even though it can provide the conceptual legitimation of simulation techniques that mimic open systems. We shall demonstrate that the model can serve as a tool to devise both numerical procedures and conceptual definitions of physical quantities that cannot be defined in a straightforward way by systems with a fixed number of molecules. In particular, we discuss the utility of the Bergmann-Lebowitz (BL) model for the calculation of equilibrium time correlation functions within the Grand Canonical Adaptive Resolution method (GC-AdResS) and report numerical results for the case of liquid water.

Pressure decoupled magnetic and structural transitions of the parent compound of iron based 122 superconductors BaFe2As2

The recent discovery of iron ferropnictide superconductors has received intensive concerns on magnetic involved superconductors. Prominent features of ferropnictide superconductors are becoming apparent: the parent compounds exhibit antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordered spin density wave (SDW) state; the magnetic phase transition is always accompanied to a crystal structural transition; superconductivity can be induced by suppressing the SDW phase via either chemical doping or applied external pressure to the parent state. These features generated considerable interests on the interplay between magnetism and structure in chemical doped samples, showing crystal structure transitions always precedes to or coincide with magnetic transition. Pressure tuned transition on the other hand would be more straightforward to superconducting mechanism studies since there are no disorder effects caused by chemical doping; however, remarkably little is known about the interplay in the parent compounds under controlled pressure due to the experimental challenge of in situ measuring both of magnetic & crystal structure evolution at high pressure & low temperatures. Here we show from combined synchrotron Mossbauer and x-ray diffraction at high pressures that the magnetic ordering surprisingly precedes the structural transition at high pressures in the parent compound BaFe2As2, in sharp contrast to the chemical doping case. The results can be well understood in terms of the spin fluctuations in the emerging nematic phase before the long range magnetic order that sheds new light on understanding how parent compound evolves from a SDW state to a superconducting phase, a key scientific inquiry of iron based superconductors.

Is there a third order phase transition for supercritical fluids?

We prove that according to Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations of liquid mixtures of Lennard-Jones (L-J) particles, there is no third order phase transition in the supercritical regime beyond Andrew's critical point. This result is in open contrast with recent theoretical studies and experiments which instead suggest not only its existence but also its universality regarding the chemical nature of the fluid. We argue that our results are solid enough to go beyond the limitations of MD and the generic character of L-J models, thus suggesting a rather smooth liquid-vapor thermodynamic behavior of fluids in supercritical regime.
