Hybrid renormalization for distribution amplitude of a light baryon in large momentum effective theory

Lightcone distribution amplitudes for a light baryon can be extracted through the simulation of the quasi-distribution amplitudes (quasi-DAs) on the lattice. We implement the hybrid renormalization for the quasi DAs of light baryons. Lattice simulations are performed using $N_f = 2+1$ stout-smeared clover fermions and a tree-level Symanzik-improved gauge action, with three lattice spacings of ${0.105, 0.077, 0.052}$ fm. By analyzing zero-momentum matrix elements for different lattice spacings, we extract the linear divergence associated with the Wilson-line self-energy. Matching to perturbative matrix elements in the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ scheme yields the residual self-renormalization factors. Using these factors, we renormalize the quasi-DAs within the hybrid scheme, which combines self-renormalization at large separations and the ratio scheme at short distances. The renormalized results demonstrate effective cancellation of linear divergences and yield smooth, continuum-like coordinate-space distributions suitable for subsequent Fourier transformation and perturbative matching. These results establish the viability of both self and hybrid renormalization frameworks for light baryon quasi-DAs, providing a robust foundation for LaMET-based determinations of light-cone distribution amplitudes.

Portraits of Charmoniumlike States

The charm quark density-density correlation is calculated for $1S$ and $1P$ conventional charmonia and $J^{PC}=1^{-+},0^{+-}$ charmoniumlike states from lattice QCD and are interpreted as spatial wave functions of these states with some approximations. The angular distributions of $c\bar{c}$ in conventional charmonia are found to be in accordance with the expectation of two-body systems, while that of the $1^{-+}$ state exhibits an $S$-wave feature. However, the $c\bar{c}$ radial distributions turn out to be strikingly different from the non-relativistic quark model and can be understood by the Dirac theory of two-body bound states. These results provide the first gauge invariant and model-independent three-dimensional portraits of charmonium(like) states.

Unveiling the Strong Interaction origin of Baryon Masses with Lattice QCD

Both the Higgs mechanism and strong interactions contribute to the masses of visible matter, yet how the six Higgs-generated quark masses and uniform strong interaction strength determine the hundreds of hadron masses remains unclear. Additionally, the role of massless, flavor-neutral gluons on hadron mass formation is central to the unresolved Millennium Prize problem on the mass gap in Yang-Mills theory. Addressing these questions requires advanced simulations on state-of-the-art supercomputers using Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), which offers a rigorous, non-perturbative definition of QCD solvable numerically. Here we present first-principles lattice QCD calculations using comprehensive gauge ensembles that accurately predict ground state spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 baryon masses with light, strange, and charm quarks within 1\% of experimental values. At the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ 2 GeV scale, our results unveil two fundamental mass generation mechanisms for those baryon masses in QCD: 1) the flavor-dependent enhancement of Higgs contributions, 4-8 for light, 2-3 for strange, and 1.2-1.3 for charm quarks; and 2) the flavor-insensitive contribution 0.8-1.2 GeV from gluon quantum anomaly. This breakthrough significantly advances our comprehension of strong interaction dynamics and the genesis of visible matter's mass.

Charmed meson masses and decay constants in the continuum from the tadpole improved clover ensembles

We present the determination of the charm quark mass, the masses, and decay constants of charmed mesons using thirteen 2+1 flavor gauge ensembles at five different lattice spacings $a\in[0.05,0.11]$ fm, 8 pion masses $m_π\in(130,360)$ MeV, and several values of the strange quark mass, which facilitate us to do the chiral and continuum extrapolation. These ensembles are generated through the stout smeared clover fermion action and Symanzik gauge actions with the tadpole improvement. By absorbing the discretization errors into the masses and field normalization of the charm quark, we manage to suppress the discretization error of the charmed meson mass and all the S-wave open charmed meson decay constants to a few percent or even less at lattice spacing $ a \sim 0.1 $ fm. Moreover, discretization errors for other quantities are also significantly reduced. The continuum extrapolated charm quark mass, $m_c(m_c)=1.2933(72)(95)$ GeV in $\overline{\textrm{MS}}$ scheme, is determined using QED-subtracted $D_s$ meson mass and non-perturbative renormalization. Predictions of the open and close charm mesons using this charm quark mass agree with the experimental values at 0.1-0.5\% level uncertainty. We obtained $D_{(s)}$ decay constants and also by far the most precise $D_{(s)}^*$ decay constants $f_{D^*}=0.2292(26)(17)$ GeV and $f_{D^*_s}=0.2691(30)(03)$ GeV.

Geographical Information Alignment Boosts Traffic Analysis via Transpose Cross-attention

Traffic accident prediction is crucial for enhancing road safety and mitigating congestion, and recent Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown promise in modeling the inherent graph-based traffic data. However, existing GNN- based approaches often overlook or do not explicitly exploit geographic position information, which often plays a critical role in understanding spatial dependencies. This is also aligned with our observation, where accident locations are often highly relevant. To address this issue, we propose a plug-in-and-play module for common GNN frameworks, termed Geographic Information Alignment (GIA). This module can efficiently fuse the node feature and geographic position information through a novel Transpose Cross-attention mechanism. Due to the large number of nodes for traffic data, the conventional cross-attention mechanism performing the node-wise alignment may be infeasible in computation-limited resources. Instead, we take the transpose operation for Query, Key, and Value in the Cross-attention mechanism, which substantially reduces the computation cost while maintaining sufficient information. Experimental results for both traffic occurrence prediction and severity prediction (severity levels based on the interval of recorded crash counts) on large-scale city-wise datasets confirm the effectiveness of our proposed method. For example, our method can obtain gains ranging from 1.3% to 10.9% in F1 score and 0.3% to 4.8% in AUC.

Use QUDA for lattice QCD calculation with Python

We developed PyQUDA, a Python wrapper for QUDA written in Cython, designed to facilitate lattice QCD calculations using the Python programming language. PyQUDA leverages the optimized linear algebra capabilities of NumPy/CuPy/PyTorch, along with the highly optimized lattice QCD operations provided by QUDA to accelerate research. This integration simplifies the process of writing calculation codes, enabling researchers to build more complex Python packages like EasyDistillation for specific physics objectives. PyQUDA supports a range of lattice QCD operations, including hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) with N-flavor clover/HISQ fermions and inversion for the Wilson/clover/HISQ fermion action with the multigrid solver. It also includes utility functions for reading lattice QCD data stored in Chroma, MILC, and $χ$QCD formats. Type hints are supported by stub files and multi-GPU support is provided through mpi4py.

The radiative decay of scalar glueball from lattice QCD

We perform the first lattice QCD study on the radiative decay of the scalar glueball to the vector meson $ϕ$ in the quenched approximation. The calculations are carried out on three gauge ensembles with different lattice spacings, which enable us to do the continuum extrapolation. We first revisit the radiative $J/ψ$ decay into the scalar glueball $G$ and obtain the partial decay width $Γ(J/ψ\to γG)=0.578(86)~\text{keV}$ and the branching fraction $\text{Br}(J/ψ\to γG) = 6.2(9)\times 10^{-3}$. We then extend the similar calculation to the process $G\to γϕ$ and get the partial decay width $Γ(G \to γϕ)= 0.074(47)~\text{keV}$, which implies that the combined branching fraction of $J/ψ\toγG\to γγϕ$ is as small as $\mathcal{O}(10^{-9})$ such that this process is hardly detected by the BESIII experiment even with the large $J/ψ$ sample of $\mathcal{O}(10^{10})$. With the vector meson dominance model, the two-photon decay width of the scalar glueball is estimated to be $Γ(G\toγγ)=0.53(46)~\text{eV}$, which results in a large stickiness $S(G)\sim \mathcal{O}(10^4)$ of the scalar glueball by assuming the stickiness of $f_2(1270)$ to be one.

SiDA-MoE: Sparsity-Inspired Data-Aware Serving for Efficient and Scalable Large Mixture-of-Experts Models

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) has emerged as a favorable architecture in the era of large models due to its inherent advantage, i.e., enlarging model capacity without incurring notable computational overhead. Yet, the realization of such benefits often results in ineffective GPU memory utilization, as large portions of the model parameters remain dormant during inference. Moreover, the memory demands of large models consistently outpace the memory capacity of contemporary GPUs. Addressing this, we introduce SiDA-MoE ($\textbf{S}$parsity-$\textbf{i}$nspired $\textbf{D}$ata-$\textbf{A}$ware), an efficient inference approach tailored for large MoE models. SiDA-MoE judiciously exploits both the system's main memory, which is now abundant and readily scalable, and GPU memory by capitalizing on the inherent sparsity on expert activation in MoE models. By adopting a data-aware perspective, SiDA-MoE achieves enhanced model efficiency with a neglectable performance drop. Specifically, SiDA-MoE attains a remarkable speedup in MoE inference with up to $3.93\times$ throughput increasing, up to $72\%$ latency reduction, and up to $80\%$ GPU memory saving with down to $1\%$ performance drop. This work paves the way for scalable and efficient deployment of large MoE models, even with constrained resources. Code is available at: https://github.com/timlee0212/SiDA-MoE.

Decays of $1^{-+}$ Charmoniumlike Hybrid

By extracting the transition amplitudes, we give the first lattice QCD prediction of the two-body decay partial widths of the $1^{-+}$ charmoniumlike hybrid $η_{c1}$. Given the calculated mass value $m_{η_{c1}}=4.329(36)$ GeV, the $η_{c1}$ decay is dominated by the open charm modes $D_1\bar{D}$, $D^*\bar{D}$ and $D^*\bar{D}^*$ with partial widths of $258(133)$ MeV, $88(18)$ MeV and $150(118)$ MeV, respectively. The coupling of $η_{c1}$ to $χ_{c1}$ plus a flavor singlet pseudoscalar is not small, but $χ_{c1}η$ decay is suppressed by the small $η-η'$ mixing angle. The partial width of $η_{c1}\to η_cη'$ is estimated to be around 1 MeV. We suggest experiments to search for $η_{c1}$ in the $P$-wave $D^*\bar{D}$ and $D^*\bar{D}^*$ systems. Especially, the polarization of $D^*\bar{D}^*$ can be used to distinguish the $1^{-+}$ product (total spin $S=1$) from $1^{--}$ products ($S=0$).

Form factor for Dalitz decays from $J/ψ$ to light pseudoscalars

We calculate the form factor $M(q^2)$ for the Dalitz decay $J/ψ\to γ^*(q^2)η_{(N_f=1)}$ with $η_{(N_f)}$ being the SU($N_f$) flavor singlet pseudoscalar meson. The difference among the partial widths $Γ(J/ψ\to γη_{(N_f)})$ at different $N_f$ can be attributed in part to the $\mathbf{U}_A(1)$ anomaly that induces a $N_f$ scaling. $M(q^2)$'s in $N_f=1,2$ are both well described by the single pole model $M(q^2)=M(0)/(1-q^2/Λ^2)$. Combined with the known experimental results of the Dalitz decays $J/ψ\to Pe^+e^-$, the pseudoscalar mass $m_P$ dependence of the pole parameter $Λ$ is approximated by $Λ(m_P^2)=Λ_1(1-m_P^2/Λ_2^2)$ with $Λ_1=2.64(4)~\mathrm{GeV}$ and $Λ_2=2.97(33)~\mathrm{GeV}$. These results provide inputs for future theoretical and experimental studies on the Dalitz decays $J/ψ\to Pe^+e^-$.

The discovery of three-dimensional Van Hove singularity

Arising from the extreme/saddle point in electronic bands, Van Hove singularity (VHS) manifests divergent density of states (DOS) and induces various new states of matter such as unconventional superconductivity. VHS is believed to exist in one and two dimensions, but rarely found in three dimension (3D). Here, we report the discovery of 3D VHS in a topological magnet EuCd2As2 by magneto-infrared spectroscopy. External magnetic fields effectively control the exchange interaction in EuCd2As2, and shift 3D Weyl bands continuously, leading to the modification of Fermi velocity and energy dispersion. Above the critical field, the 3D VHS forms and is evidenced by the abrupt emergence of inter-band transitions, which can be quantitatively described by the minimal model of Weyl semimetals. Three additional optical transitions are further predicted theoretically and verified in magneto-near-infrared spectra. Our results pave the way to exploring VHS in 3D systems and uncovering the coordination between electronic correlation and the topological phase.

Radiative transition decay width of $ψ_2(3823)\rightarrowγχ_{c1}$ from lattice QCD

We present an exploratory $N_f=2$ lattice QCD study of $ψ_2(3823)\to γχ_{c1}$ at a pion mass $m_π\approx 350$~MeV. The related two-point and three-piont functions are calculated using the distillation method. The electromagnetic multipole form factor $\hat{V}(0)=2.083(11)$ for $J/ψ\toγη_c$ is consistent with previous lattice results, the form factors $\hat{E}_1(0)$, $\hat{M}_2(0)$ and $\hat{E}_3(0)$ for $Γ(χ_{c2}\toγJ/ψ)$ have the same hierarchy as that derived from experiments and the predicted decay width $Γ(χ_{c2}\toγJ/ψ)=368(5)~\text{keV}$ is in excellent agreement with the PDG value $374(10)~\text{keV}$ and previous lattice QCD results in the quenched approximation. The same strategy is applied to the study of the process $ψ_2(3823)\to γχ_{c1}$ and the partial decay width is predicted to be $337(27)~\text{keV}$. According to the BESIII constraints on the $ψ_2(3823)$ decay channels and some phenomenological results, we estimate the total width $Γ(ψ_2(3823))=520(100)~\text{keV}$.

$η$-glueball mixing from $N_f=2$ lattice QCD

We perform the first lattice study on the mixing of the isoscalar pseudoscalar meson $η$ and the pseudoscalar glueball $G$ in the $N_f=2$ QCD at the pion mass $m_π\approx 350$ MeV. The $η$ mass is determined to be $m_η=714(6)(16)$ MeV. Through the Witten-Veneziano relation, this value can be matched to a mass value of $\sim 981$ MeV for the $\mathrm{SU(3)}$ counterpart of $η$. Based on a large gauge ensemble, the $η-G$ mixing energy and the mixing angle are determined to be $|x|=107(15)(2)$ MeV and $|θ|=3.46(46)^\circ$ from the $η-G$ correlators that are calculated using the distillation method. We conclude that the $η-G$ mixing is tiny and the topology induced interaction contributes most of $η$ mass owing to the QCD $\mathrm{U_A(1)}$ anomaly.

$1^{-+}$ Hybrid in $J/ψ$ Radiative Decays from Lattice QCD

We present the first theoretical prediction of the production rate of $1^{-+}$ light hybrid meson $η_1$ in $J/ψ$ radiative decays. In the $N_f=2$ lattice QCD formalism with the pion mass $m_π\approx 350$ MeV, the related electromagnetic multipole form factors are extracted from the three-point functions that involve necessarily quark annihilation diagrams, which are calculated through the distillation method. The partial width of $J/ψ\to γη_1$ is determined to be $2.29(77)~\mathrm{eV}$ at the $η_1$ mass $m_{η_1}=2.23(4)$ GeV. If $η_1$ corresponds to the recently observed $η_1(1855)$ in the process $J/ψ\to γη_1(1855)\to γηη'$ by BESIII, then the branching fraction $\mathrm{Br}(J/ψ\to γη_1(1855))$ is estimated to be $6.2(2.2)\times 10^{-5}$, which implies $\mathrm{Br}(η_1(1855)\to ηη')\sim 4.3\%$.

Radiative Decay Width of $J/ψ\to γη_{(2)}$ from $N_f=2$ Lattice QCD

The large radiative production rate for pseudoscalar mesons in the $J/ψ$ radiative decay remains elusive. We present the first lattice QCD calculation of partial decay width of $J/ψ$ radiatively decaying into $η_{(2)}$, the $\mathrm{SU(2)}$ flavor singlet pseudoscalar meson, which confirms QCD $\mathrm{U_A(1)}$ anomaly enhancement to the coupling of gluons with flavor singlet pseudoscalar mesons. The lattice simulation is carried out using $N_f=2$ lattice QCD gauge configurations at the pion mass $m_π \approx 350$ MeV. In particular, the distillation method has been utilized to calculate light quark loops. The results are reported here with the mass $m_{η_{(2)}}= 718(8)$ MeV and the decay width $Γ(J/ψ\toγη_{(2)})=0.385(45)$ keV. By assuming the dominance of $\mathrm{U_A(1)}$ anomaly and flavor singlet-octet mixing angle $θ=-24.5^\circ$, the production rates for the physical $η$ and $η'$ in $J/ψ$ radiative decay are predicted to be $1.15(14)\times 10^{-3}$ and $4.49(53)\times 10^{-3}$, respectively, which agree well with the experimental measurement data. Our study manifests the potential of lattice QCD studies on the light hadron production in $J/ψ$ radiative decays.

Annihilation diagram contribution to charmonium masses

In this work, we generate gauge configurations with $N_f=2$ dynamical charm quarks on anisotropic lattices. The mass shift of $1S$ and $1P$ charmonia owing to the charm quark annihilation effect can be investigated directly in a manner of unitary theory. The distillation method is adopted to treat the charm quark annihilation diagrams at a very precise level. For $1S$ charmonia, the charm quark annihilation effect almost does not change the $J/ψ$ mass, but lifts the $η_c$ mass by approximately 3-4 MeV. For $1P$ charmonia, this effect results in positive mass shifts of approximately 1 MeV for $χ_{c1}$ and $h_c$, but decreases the $χ_{c2}$ mass by approximately 3 MeV. We have not obtain a reliable result for the mass shift of $χ_{c0}$. In addition, it is observed that the spin averaged mass of the spin-triplet $1P$ charmonia is in a good agreement with the $h_c$, as expected by the non-relativistic quark model and measured by experiments.

Glueballs at Physical Pion Mass

We study glueballs on two $N_f=2+1$ RBC/UKQCD gauge ensembles with physical quark masses at two lattice spacings. The statistical uncertainties of the glueball correlation functions are considerably reduced through the cluster decomposition error reduction (CDER) method. The Bethe-Salpeter wave functions are obtained for the scalar, tensor and pseudoscalar glueballs by using spatially extended glueball operators defined through the gauge potential $A_μ(x)$ in the Coulomb gauge. These wave functions show similar features of non-relativistic two-gluon systems, and they are used to optimize the signals of the related correlation functions at the early time regions. Consequently, the ground state masses can be extracted precisely. To the extent that the excited state contamination is not important, our calculation gives glueball masses at the physical pion mass for the first time.
