Coulomb gauge model for hidden charm tetraquarks
The spectrum of tetraquark states with hidden charm is studied within an effective Coulomb gauge Hamiltonian approach. Of the four independent color schemes, two are investigated, the ( q c ¯ ) 1 ( c q ¯ ) 1 singlet–singlet (molecule) and the ( q c ) 3 ( q ¯ c ¯ ) 3 triplet–triplet (diquark), for selected J PC states using a variational method. The predicted masses of triplet–triplet tetraquarks are roughly a GeV heavier than the singlet–singlet states. There is also an interesting flavor dependence with ( q q ¯ ) 1 ( c c ¯ 1 ) states about half a GeV lighter than ( q c ¯ ) 1 ( q ¯ c ) 1 . The lightest 1 + + and 1 − − predictions are in agreement with the observed X ( 3872 ) and Y ( 4008 ) masses suggesting they are molecules with ω J / ψ and η h c , rather than D ⁎ D ¯ ⁎ and D D ¯ , type structure, respectively. Similarly, the lightest isovector 1 + + molecule, having a ρ J / ψ flavor composition, has mass near the recently observed charged Z c ( 3900 ) value. These flavor configurations are consistent with observed X , Y and Z c decays to π π J / ψ .

title: Static three-body potential in baryons
abstract: The first principle of quantum chromodynamics is used to calculate the static perturbative three-body potential between three valence quarks in baryons, which is gauge invariant and flavor-dependent, and of magnitude of the same order as the next non-leading static q-q potential. Its effect on an S-state baryon composed of three valence quarks of equal mass may be viewed as a slight increase of the constituent quark masses with respect to those in mesons.

title: Strange hadronic matter in a chiral model
abstract: The strange hadronic matter with nucleon, Λ-hyperon and Ξ-hyperon is studied by using a chiral symmetry model in a mean-field approximation. The saturation properties and stabilities of the strange hadronic matter are discussed. The result indicates a quite large strangeness fraction (fS) region where the strange hadronic matter is stable against particle emission. In the large fS region, the Ξ component dominates, resulting in a deep minimum in the curve of the binding energy per baryon EB versus the strangeness fraction fS with (EB, fS) (-26.0 MeV, 1.23).

title: An Extended Chiral SU(3) Quark Model
abstract: The chiral SU(3) quark model is extended by including the vector meson exchanges to describe the short range interactions. The phase shifts of NN scattering are studied in this model. Compared with the results of the chiral SU(3) quark model in which only the pseudo-scalar and scalar chiral fields are considered, the phase shifts of 1S0 wave are obviously improved.

title: Nucleon magnetic form factors with non-local chiral effective Lagrangian
abstract: Chiral perturbation theory is a useful method to investigate the hadron properties. We apply the non-local chiral effective Lagrangian to study the nucleon magnetic form factors. The octet and decuplet intermediate states are included in the one-loop calculation. With the modified propagators and non-local interaction, the loop integral is convergent. The obtained proton and neutron magnetic form factors are both reasonable up to relatively large Q2.

title: Chiral symmetry restoration of nuclear matter
abstract: The phase transition of chiral symmetry restoration of nuclear matter is studied in the chiral SU(3) quark mean field model. For some kinds of confining potentials, there exists a critical density ρc. When the baryon density is larger than ρc, nuclear matter will be in the phase of chiral symmetry restoration. At critical density, the physical quantities change discontinuously. The critical density will become larger when the vector part of the confining potential increases.

title: Observation of $e^+e^- \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0 \chi_{bJ}$ and Search for $X_b \to \omega \Upsilon(1S)$ at $\sqrt{s}=10.867$ GeV
abstract: The $e^+e^- \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0 \chi_{bJ}$ ($J=0,~1,~2$) processes are studied using a 118~fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected at a center-of-mass energy of 10.867 GeV, in the $\Upsilon(10860)$ energy range, with the Belle detector. The $\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0 \chi_{b1}$, $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\chi_{b2}$, $\omega\chi_{b1}$ signals and the evidence of $\omega\chi_{b2}$ are observed for the first time and the cross sections are measured. No significant $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\chi_{b0}$ or $\omega\chi_{b0}$ signal is observed and 90\% confidence level upper limits on the cross sections for these two processes are obtained. In the $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ invariant mass spectrum, significant non-$\omega$ signals are also observed. We search for the $X(3872)$-like state with a hidden $b\bar{b}$ component (named $X_b$) decaying into $\omega \Upsilon(1S)$; no significant signal is observed with a mass between $10.55$ and $10.65$ GeV/$c^2$.

title: Asymmetric nuclear matter at finite temperature and density
abstract: Asymmetric nuclear matter is studied by using an effective nuclear model in a mean-field approximation. The density, temperature, and asymmetric parameter dependence of the effective baryon mass is discussed. The liquid-gas phase transition of a system with two independent conserved charges (baryon number and isospin) is studied using the stability conditions on the free energy and Gibbs conditions for phase equilibrium. The critical temperature is calculated with and without $\ensuremath{\rho}$ meson contribution, respectively.
