Precise measurement of hadronic $\tau$-decays in modes with $\eta$ mesons
We have measured branching fractions of hadronic $\tau$ decays involving an $\eta$ meson using 485 fb^{-1} of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider. We obtain the following branching fractions: ${\cal B}(\tau^-\to K^- \eta \nu_{\tau})=(1.62\pm 0.05 \pm 0.09)\times 10^{-4}$, ${\cal B}(\tau^-\to K^- \pi^0 \eta \nu_{\tau}) =(4.7\pm 1.1 \pm 0.4)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\cal B}(\tau^-\to \pi^- \pi^0 \eta \nu_{\tau})=(1.39 \pm 0.03 \pm 0.07) \times 10^{-3}$, and ${\cal B}(\tau^-\to K^{*-} \eta \nu_{\tau})=(1.13\pm 0.19 \pm 0.07)\times 10^{-4}$ improving the accuracy compared to the best previous measurements by factors of six, eight, four and four, respectively.

title: First observation of CP violation and improved measurement of the branching fraction and polarization of B0→D*+D*− decays
abstract: We report the measurement of the branching fraction, the polarization, and the parameters of the time-dependent CP violation in B-0 -> D*(+) D*(-) decays using a data sample of 772 x 10(6)B (B) over bar pairs, collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider. We obtain a branching fraction of B = (7.82 +/- 0.38 +/- 0.63) x 10(-4), a CP-odd fraction of R-perpendicular to = 0.138 +/- 0.024 +/- 0.006 and, additionally, a fraction of the longitudinal component in the transversity base of R-0 = 0.624 +/- 0.029 +/- 0.011. The measured values of the parameters of the CP violation are SD*+ D*- = 0.79 +/- 0.13 +/- 0.03 and A(D*+ D*-) 0.15 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.04.

title: Physics at BES-III
abstract: This physics book provides detailed discussions on important topics in $\tau$-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.

title: Search for T, CP, and CPT violation in B0-B0 mixing with inclusive dilepton events.
abstract: We report the results of a search for T, CP, CPT, and violation in B0-B0 mixing using an inclusive dilepton sample collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II factory. Using a sample of 232 x 10(6) BB pairs, we measure the T and CP violation parameter |q/p| - 1 = (-0.8 +/- 2.7(stat) +/- 1.9(syst) x 10(-3), and the CPT and CP parameters Imz = (13.9 +/- 7.3(stat) +/- 3.2(syst)) x 10(-3) and Delta Gamma x Rez = (7.1 +/- 3.9(stat) +/- 2.0(stat)) x 10(-3) ps(-1). The statistical correlation between the measurements of Imz and Delta Gamma x Rez is 76%.

title: Observation of $J/\psi \rightarrow p\bar{p}a_{0}(980)$ at BESIII
abstract: Using $2.25\times10^{8}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage rings, we observe for the first time the process $J/\psi\rightarrow p\bar{p}a_{0}(980)$, $a_{0}(980)\rightarrow \pi^{0}\eta$ with a significance of $6.5\sigma$ ($3.2\sigma$ including systematic uncertainties). The product branching fraction of $J/\psi\rightarrow p\bar{p}a_{0}(980)\rightarrow p\bar{p}\pi^{0}\eta$ is measured to be $(6.8\pm1.2\pm1.3)\times 10^{-5}$, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. This measurement provides information on the $a_{0}$ production near threshold coupling to $p\bar{p}$ and improves the understanding of the dynamics of $J/\psi$ decays to four body processes.

title: Strange matter in a self-consistent quark mass-density-dependent model
abstract: An additional term should be added to the thermopotential if the quark masses are density dependent. The strange quark matter is discussed in this self-consistent method. In addition to the ordinary density function of quark masses, another one is also assumed. There exists a region in which strange quark matter is stable at zero temperature.

title: Strange hadronic matter in the FST model
abstract: The strange hadronic matter with nucleon, Λ-hyperon and Ⅺ-hyperon is studied by using the FST model in a mean-field approximation. The saturation properties and stabilities of the strange hadronic matter are discussed.

title: Vacuum fluctuation effects in a thermal hadronic medium
abstract: The vacuum fluctuation effects in a dense and hot hadronic medium on the -, - and -meson masses are studied in a one-loop approximation. The change of the nucleon-nucleon interaction potential due to the modification of the meson masses is also calculated.

title: Phase transition from hadronic matter to quark matter
abstract: We study the phase transition from two-flavor nuclear matter to quark matter. A mean field model, constructed at the quark level, is used to give the equation of state for nuclear matter, while the equation of state for color superconducting quark matter is calculated within the NJL model. It is found that at low temperature, the phase transition from nuclear to color superconducting quark matter will take place when the density is of order 2.5{rho}{sub 0}-5{rho}{sub 0}. At zero density, the quark phase will appear when the temperature is larger than about 148 MeV. Within the mean field treatment, the phase transition from nuclear matter to quark matter is always first order, whereas the transition between color superconducting quark matter and normal quark matter is second order.

title: Chiral extrapolation of nucleon magnetic moments at next-to-leading-order
abstract: Nucleon magnetic moments display a rich nonanalytic dependence on the quark mass in both quenched and full QCD. They provide a forum for a detailed examination of the connection between quenched and full QCD made possible through the formalism of finite-range regularized chiral effective field theory. By defining meson-cloud and core contributions through the careful selection of a regularization scale, one can correct the meson cloud of quenched QCD to make full QCD predictions. Whereas past success is based on unquenching the leading-order loop contributions, here we extend and test the formalism including next-to-leading-order loop contributions. We discuss the subtleties associated with working at next-to-leading order and illustrate the role of higher-order corrections.
