The self-assembly behavior of a diblock copolymer/homopolymer induced by Janus nanorods

We employ cell dynamics simulation based on the CH/BD model to investigate the self-assembly behavior of a mixed system consisting of diblock copolymers (AB), homopolymers (C), and Janus nanorods. The results indicate that, at different component ratios, the mixed system undergoes various phase transitions with an increasing number of nanorods. Specifically, when the homopolymer component is 0.40, the mixed system transitions from a disordered structure to a parallel lamellar structure, subsequently to a tilted layered structure, and ultimately to a perpendicular lamellar structure as the number of nanorods increases. To explore this phenomenon in greater depth, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of domain sizes and pattern evolution. Additionally, we investigate the effects of the repulsive interaction strength between polymers, wetting strength, length of nanorods, and degree of asymmetry on the self-assembly behavior of the mixed system. This research provides significant theoretical and experimental insights for the preparation of novel nanomaterials.

Optimal state transfer of a single dissipative two-level system

Optimal state transfer of a single two-level system (TLS) coupled to an Ohmic boson bath via off-diagonal TLS-bath coupling is studied by using optimal control theory. In the weak system-bath coupling regime where the time-dependent Bloch-Redfield formalism is applicable, we obtain the Bloch equation to probe the evolution of the dissipative TLS in the presence of a time-dependent external control field. By using the automatic differentiation technique to compute the gradient for the cost functional, we calculate the optimal transfer integral profile that can achieve an ideal transfer within a dimer system in the FennaMatthews-Olson (FMO) model. The robustness of the control profile against temperature variation is also analyzed.

Physics at BES-III

This physics book provides detailed discussions on important topics in $τ$-charm physics that will be explored during the next few years at \bes3 . Both theoretical and experimental issues are covered, including extensive reviews of recent theoretical developments and experimental techniques. Among the subjects covered are: innovations in Partial Wave Analysis (PWA), theoretical and experimental techniques for Dalitz-plot analyses, analysis tools to extract absolute branching fractions and measurements of decay constants, form factors, and CP-violation and \DzDzb-oscillation parameters. Programs of QCD studies and near-threshold tau-lepton physics measurements are also discussed.

Studies on $π^+π^-$ phase motion in the $Ψ'\to J/Ψπ^+ π^-$ process

We propose a measurement on the elastic $ππ$ scattering phase shift difference $δ^0_0-δ^2_0$ through $Ψ'\to J/Ψπ^+ π^-$ process in future high statistics BES-III experiment. The decay amplitude is constructed with seven Lorentz invariant form-factors and is compared with their theoretical estimation. It is found that the phase shift difference can be obtained, based on a Monte Carlo study and it is expected the phase shift in the energy region between 350 MeV to 550 MeV can be measured at future BES-III.

The pole structure of the unitary, crossing symmetric low energy $ππ$ scattering amplitudes

The pole structure of the low energy $ππ$ scattering amplitudes is studied using a proper chiral unitarization method combined with crossing symmetry and the low energy phase shift data. It is found that the $σ$ pole position is at $M_σ=470\pm 50MeV$, $Γ_σ=570\pm 50MeV$. The existence of the virtual state pole in the IJ=20 channel is reconfirmed. Various threshold parameters are estimated and are found in general in good agreement with the results obtained from the Roy equation analyses.

The $κ$ resonance in s wave $πK$ scatterings

A new unitarization approach incorporated with chiral symmetry is established and applied to study the $πK$ elastic scatterings. We demonstrate that the $κ$ resonance exists, if the scattering length parameter in the I=1/2, J=0 channel does not deviate much from its value predicted by chiral perturbation theory. The mass and width of the $κ$ resonance is found to be $M_κ=594\pm 79MeV$, $Γ_κ=724\pm 332MeV$, obtained by fitting the LASS data up to 1430MeV. Better determination to the pole parameters is possible if the chiral predictions on scattering lengths are taken into account.
