Study of $B^-\to Λ\bar pη^{(')}$ and $\bar B^0_s\to Λ\barΛη^{(')}$ decays

We study the three-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B\bar B'}M$ decays with $M$ representing the $η$ or $η'$ meson. Particularly, we predict that ${\cal B}(B^-\toΛ\bar pη,Λ\bar pη')=(5.3\pm 1.4,3.3\pm 0.7)\times 10^{-6}$ or $(4.0\pm 0.7,4.6\pm 1.1)\times 10^{-6}$, where the errors arise from the non-factorizable effects as well as the uncertainties in the $0\to {\bf B\bar B'}$ and $B\to{\bf B\bar B'}$ transition form factors, while the two different results are due to overall relative signs between the form factors, causing the constructive and destructive interference effects. For the corresponding baryonic $\bar B_s^0$ decays, we find that ${\cal B}(\bar B^0_s\to Λ\bar Λη,Λ\bar Λη')=(1.2\pm 0.3,2.6\pm 0.8)\times 10^{-6}$ or $(2.1\pm 0.6,1.5\pm 0.4)\times 10^{-6}$ with the errors similar to those above. The decays in question are accessible to the experiments at BELLE and LHCb.

On self-conjugate $(s, s+1,\ldots, s+k)$-core partitions

Simultaneous core partitions have been widely studied since Anderson's work on the enumeration of $(s,t)$-core partitions. Amdeberhan and Leven showed that the number of $(s,s+1, \ldots, s+k)$-core partitions is equal to the number of $(s, k)$-Dyck paths. In this paper, we prove that self-conjugate $(s,s+1, \ldots, s+k)$-core partitions are equinumerous with symmetric $(s, k)$-Dyck paths, confirming a conjecture posed by Cho, Huh and Sohn.

Detection of incoherent broadband terahertz light using antenna-coupled high-electron-mobility field-effect transistors

The sensitivity of direct terahertz detectors based on self-mixing of terahertz electromagnetic wave in field-effect transistors is being improved with noise-equivalent power close to that of Schottky-barrier-diode detectors. Here we report such detectors based on AlGaN/GaN two-dimensional electron gas at 77~K are able to sense broadband and incoherent terahertz radiation. The measured photocurrent as a function of the gate voltage agrees well with the self-mixing model and the spectral response is mainly determined by the antenna. A Fourier-transform spectrometer equipped with detectors designed for 340, 650 and 900~GHz bands allows for terahertz spectroscopy in a frequency range from 0.1 to 2.0~THz. The 900~GHz detector at 77~K offers an optical sensitivity about $1~\mathrm{pW/\sqrt{Hz}}$ being comparable to a commercial silicon bolometer at 4.2~K. By further improving the sensitivity, room-temperature detectors would find applications in active/passive terahertz imaging and terahertz spectroscopy.

High-efficiency spontaneous terahertz emission from electrically-excited plasmons in AlGaN/GaN two-dimensional electron gas

The advance of terahertz science and technology yet lays wait for the breakthrough in high-efficiency and high-power solid-state terahertz sources applicable at room temperature. Plasmon in two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) has long been pursued as a type of promising active medium for terahertz emitters. However, a high wall-plug efficiency sufficient for high-power operation has not been achieved. Here we report spontaneous terahertz emission tunable in a frequency range from 0.3 to 2.5 THz through electrical excitation of plasmon or plasmon-polariton modes in a grating-gate coupled AlGaN/GaN 2DEG at 7 K. A wall-plug efficiency ranging from $10^{-6}$ to $10^{-1}$ is found by tuning the energy (4.5 eV to 0.5 eV) of tunneling electrons between the grating gates and the 2DEG. The total emission power, albeit below 15 nW, is already detectable by using a direct terahertz field-effect transistor detector based on the same type of 2DEG. The findings indicate that both high-efficiency and high-power terahertz plasmon-polariton emission could be obtained by a proper injection of tunneling electrons with low energy and high current density.

Study of $Λ_b\to Λ(ϕ,η^{(\prime)})$ and $Λ_b\to ΛK^+K^-$ decays

We study the charmless two-body $Λ_b\to Λ(ϕ,η^{(\prime)})$ and three-body $Λ_b\to ΛK^+K^- $ decays. We obtain ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to Λϕ)=(3.53\pm 0.24)\times 10^{-6}$ to agree with the recent LHCb measurement. However, we find that ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to Λ(ϕ\to)K^+ K^-)=(1.71\pm 0.12)\times 10^{-6}$ is unable to explain the LHCb observation of ${\cal B}(Λ_b\toΛK^+ K^-)=(15.9\pm 1.2\pm 1.2\pm 2.0)\times 10^{-6}$, which implies the possibility for other contributions, such as that from the resonant $Λ_b\to K^- N^*,\,N^*\toΛK^+$ decay with $N^*$ as a higher-wave baryon state. For $Λ_b\to Λη^{(\prime)}$, we show that ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to Λη,\,Λη^\prime)= (1.47\pm 0.35,1.83\pm 0.58)\times 10^{-6}$, which are consistent with the current data of $(9.3^{+7.3}_{-5.3},<3.1)\times 10^{-6}$, respectively. Our results also support the relation of ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to Λη) \simeq {\cal B}(Λ_b\toΛη^\prime)$, given by the previous study.

Roles of scalar mesons in charmless $Λ_b$ decays

We first study the charmless two-body $Λ_b$ decays with the scalar mesons as the final states and predict that ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to Λf_0(980,1500))=(2.9\pm 0.7,12.4\pm 3.8)\times 10^{-6}$ and ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to p K^{*-}_0(800,1430))=(1.9\pm 0.5,14.1\pm 4.5)\times 10^{-6}$. With the resonant $f_0(980,1500)\to (π^+π^-,K^+K^-)$ and $K^{*-}_0\to \bar K^0 π^-$ decays, we then obtain ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to Λ(π^+π^-,K^+K^-))=(4.2\pm 1.0,3.5\pm0.7)\times 10^{-6}$ and ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to p\bar K^0 π^-)=(10.4\pm2.9)\times 10^{-6}$, in comparison with the data of $(4.6\pm 1.9,15.9\pm2.6)\times 10^{-6}$ and $(12.6\pm 4.0)\times 10^{-6}$ from LHCb, respectively. Our results for $Λ_b\to Λπ^+π^-$ and $Λ_b\to p\bar K^0 π^-$ would be regarded as the first evidences of the scalar meson productions in the anti-triplet $b$-baryon decays. The smaller predicted value of ${\cal B}(Λ_b\to ΛK^+K^-)$ indicates the existences of other resonant contributions to the decay, such as $Λ_b\to K^-(N^{*+}\to)ΛK^+$.

Constraints on the septet-doublet mixing models from oblique parameters

The limitations of the doublet-septet mixing models by the deviations of electroweak oblique parameters $ΔS$ and $ΔT$ are studied. In the minimal model, the mixture of the septet $η$ and the scalar doublet in the standard model (SM) is driven by a non-Hermitian dimension-7 operator. For a smaller bare mass of the septet, $ΔS$ gives a stringent constraint on the mixing angle $\sinβ$ between the CP-odd neutral parts of the SM Higgs doublet and $η$. In general, increasing the mass of the scalar septet $M_η$ will enhance the deviation of $T$ from the SM, whereas it decreases the magnitude of $ΔS$ for a larger bare mass within the range $M_η\lesssim 400\,{\rm GeV}$. We also examine two extended models from the ordinary doublet-septet mixture pattern. One of them is based on a inert doublet-septet mixing pattern, in which there is no vacuum expectation value for the neutral component of $η$, and a stable dark matter could naturally exist. For a benchmark point with this inner doublet mass of $M_χ=250{\rm}$ and $M_η=400\,{\rm GeV}$ in this model, the mixing coefficient is found to be less than $1.8$. The other extension is constructed by imposing a doubly charged scalar mixed with the doubly charged component of the septet. Apart from the contribution by the septet-doublet admixture, $ΔS$ is suppressed by a factor of $s_W^2$ and $ΔT$ has a significant constraint due to the vanishing vacuum polarization of $Z$ at the momentum transfer $p^2=0$.

Constraints on Natural Supersymmetry from Electroweak Precision Tests

The observed Higgs boson mass and the naturalness argument leave us a narrow window for the soft mass spectrum in natural supersymmetry that can be studied through the electroweak precision tests (EWPTs). We divide the analysis into the Higgs sector constrained by the charged Higgs mass bound, the neutralino-chargino sector constrained by the chargino mass bound, and the third-generation squark sector tightly constrained by the observed Higgs mass. Total contributions to EWPTs in the MSSM and NMSSM are both presented. It turns out that natural MSSM is excluded at 68\% CL but consistent at 95\% CL, whereas natural NMSSM with nearly degenerate conditions is excluded at 68\% CL but consistent at 99\% CL for $λ\leq 0.6$.

Oblique Corrections in the MSSM at One Loop. I. Scalars

This paper is devoted to reconsider the one-loop oblique corrections arising from the scalar superpartners in the MSSM, i.e, the squarks, the sleptons and the scalars in Higgs sector. We explicitly present the complete one-loop forms of self-energy corrections to the gauge bosons of SM electroweak gauge groups, as well as their descendants the $S$, $T$ and $U$ parameters, which can be directly applied to constrain the parameter space of the MSSM. Our results about one-loop self energies are found to agree with Drees, Hagiwara, and Yamada (1992), Pierce et al. (1997). Nevertheless, the $S$, $T$ and $U$ parameters aren't in agreement with Dobado, Herrero and Penaranda (1999).

An oscillating motion of a red blood cell and a neutrally buoyant particle in Poiseuille flow in a narrow channel

Two motions of oscillation and vacillating breathing (swing) of a red blood cell have been observed in bounded Poiseuille flows (Phys. Rev. E 85, 16307 (2012)). To understand such motions, we have studied the oscillating motion of a neutrally buoyant rigid particle of the same shape in Poiseuille flow in a narrow channel and obtained that the crucial point is to have the particle interacting with Poiseuille flow with its mass center moving up and down in the channel central region. Since the mass center of the cell migrates toward the channel central region, its oscillating motion of the inclination angle is similar to the aforementioned motion as long as the cell keeps the shape of long body. But as the up-and-down oscillation of the cell mass center damps out, the oscillating motion of the inclination angle also damps out and the cell inclination angle approaches to a fixed angle.

Electroweak Precision Tests On the MSSM and NMSSM Constrained at the LHC

Following previous works regarding electroweak precision tests in supersymmetry, we continue to explore their implications to the MSSM and NMSSM both of which are tightly constrained by the Higgs mass and its decay experiments at the LHC. We adopt universal squark, slepton mass of three generations, and A-term of all SM fermions. We determine the flows of both MSSM and NMSSM in the $S$-$T$ plane with increasing $\tanβ$ and/or $γγ$ rate. Either increasing the value of $R_γ$ or $\tanβ$, we find that the benchmark points tend to be pushed outside the contour at 99% CL in the MSSM, however, conversely they tend to shrink towards to the SM reference point in the NMSSM. In particular, $\tanβ\gtrsim 50$ is excluded at 99% CL by the EWPTs for the MSSM due to this behavior. This behavior is also useful to distinguish the NMSSM from the MSSM. A byproduct is that the contributions coming from the neutralinos and charginos should be more suppressed in the MSSM in comparison with the NMSSM.

Oblique Corrections in the MSSM at One Loop. II. Fermions

This paper is the completion of an earlier work arXiv:1207.4867 which involves the derivation of oblique corrections in the MSSM at one loop. In terms of the two-component spinor formalism, which is new in compared with those used in the literature, the contributions arising from the fermion superpartners i.e, neutralino-chargino sector to self-energy of standard model electroweak gauge bosons are calculated. Corresponding descendants the $S$, $T$ and $U$ parameters are presented. The validity of our results is examined in two ways, which are then followed by detailed analysis on the results in the literature.

A Simple Model of Direct Gauge Mediation

In the context of direct gauge mediation Wess-Zumino models are very attractive in supersymmetry model building. Besides the spontaneous supersymmetry and R-symmetry breaking, the problems of small gaugino mass as well as μ and Bμ terms should be solved so as to achieve a viable model. In this letter, we propose a simple model as an existence proof, in which all these subjects are realized simultaneously, with no need of fine tuning. This completion also implies that much of parameter space for direct gauge medition can be directly explored at LHC.

Phenomenologies of Higgs messenger models

In this paper, we investigate the phenomenologies of models where the Higgs sector plays the role of messengers in gauge mediation. The minimal Higgs sector and its extension are considered respectively. We find that there exist viable models when an appropriate parity is imposed. Phenomenological features in these kind of models include three sum rules for scalar masses, light gluino as well as one-loop $μ$ and two-loop $Bμ$ terms.

Hadronic Production of the Doubly Heavy Baryon $Ξ_{bc}$ at LHC

We investigate the hadronic production of the doubly heavy baryon $Ξ_{bc}$ at the large hadron collider (LHC), where contributions from the four $(bc)$-diquark states $(bc)_{\bf\bar{3},6}[^1S_0]$ and $(bc)_{\bf\bar{3},6}[^3S_1]$ have been taken into consideration. Numerical results show that under the condition of $p_T>4$ GeV and $|y|<1.5$, sizable $Ξ_{bc}$ events about $ 1.7\times 10^7$ and $3.5\times10^9$ per year can be produced for the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{S}=7$ TeV and $\sqrt{S}=14$ TeV respectively. For experimental usage, the total and the interested differential cross-sections are estimated under some typical $p_T$- and $y$- cuts for the LHC detectors CMS, ATLAS and LHCb. Main uncertainties are discussed and a comparative study on the hadronic production of $Ξ_{cc}$, $Ξ_{bc}$ and $Ξ_{bb}$ at LHC are also presented.

CSSF MIMO RADAR: Low-Complexity Compressive Sensing Based MIMO Radar That Uses Step Frequency

A new approach is proposed, namely CSSF MIMO radar, which applies the technique of step frequency (SF) to compressive sensing (CS) based multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar. The proposed approach enables high resolution range, angle and Doppler estimation, while transmitting narrowband pulses. The problem of joint angle-Doppler-range estimation is first formulated to fit the CS framework, i.e., as an L1 optimization problem. Direct solution of this problem entails high complexity as it employs a basis matrix whose construction requires discretization of the angle-Doppler-range space. Since high resolution requires fine space discretization, the complexity of joint range, angle and Doppler estimation can be prohibitively high. For the case of slowly moving targets, a technique is proposed that achieves significant complexity reduction by successively estimating angle-range and Doppler in a decoupled fashion and by employing initial estimates obtained via matched filtering to further reduce the space that needs to be digitized. Numerical results show that the combination of CS and SF results in a MIMO radar system that has superior resolution and requires far less data as compared to a system that uses a matched filter with SF.

A Comparative Study of $f_B$ within QCD Sum Rules with Two Typical Correlators up to Next-to-Leading Order

The B-decay constant $f_B$ is an important component for studying $B$-meson decays, which can be studied through QCD sum rules. We make a detailed discussion on $f_B$ from two sum rules, i.e. sum rules I and II, which are derived from the conventional correlator and the correlator with chiral currents respectively. It is found that these two sum rules are consistent with each other. However, the sum rules II has less uncertainty sources than that of sum rules I, and then it can be more accurate if we know the dimension-four gluon condensate well. It is found that $f_B$ decreases with the increment of $m_b$, and to compare with the Belle experimental data on $f_B$, both sum rules prefer smaller pole $b$-quark mass, $m_b=4.68\pm0.07$ GeV. By varying all the input parameters in their reasonable region and adding all the uncertainties together in quadrature, we obtain $f_B=172^{+23}_{-25}$ MeV for sum rules I and $f_B=214_{-34}^{+26}$ MeV for sum rules II.

Step-Frequency Radar with Compressive Sampling (SFR-CS)

Step-frequency radar (SFR) is a high resolution radar approach, where multiple pulses are transmitted at different frequencies, covering a wide spectrum. The obtained resolution directly depends on the total bandwidth used, or equivalently, the number of transmitted pulses. This paper proposes a novel SFR system, namely SFR with compressive sampling (SFRCS), that achieves the same resolution as a conventional SFR, while using significantly reduced bandwidth, or equivalently, transmitting significantly fewer pulses. This bandwidth reduction is accomplished by employing compressive sampling ideas and exploiting the sparseness of targets in the range velocity space.
