Vertex Operators of Open String States in the Intersecting D-brane World
Starting with a new bosonization scheme for the \beta\gamma CFT of the super-conformal ghosts, vertex operators are constructed for massless open string states in the intersecting D-brane world. These vertex operators satisfy all requirements for a consistent RNS formulation of superstring theories, so GSO projections can be properly taken.

title: Note on a noncritical holographic model with a magnetic field
abstract: We consider a noncritical holographic model constructed from an intersecting brane configuration D4 root D4-D4 with an external magnetic field. We investigate the influences of this magnetic field on strongly coupled dynamics by the gauge/gravity correspondence.

title: Note on Chiral Symmetry Breaking from Intersecting Branes
abstract: In this paper, we will consider the chiral symmetry breaking in the holographic model constructed from the intersecting brane configuration, and investigate the Nambu-Goldstone bosons associated with this symmetry breaking.

title: Jet quenching parameters of Sakai-Sugimoto Model
abstract: Using gauge theory/string duality, we calculated the jet quenching parameter $\hat{q}$ of the Sakai-Sugimoto model in various phases. Being different from the $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theory where $\hat{q}\propto T^3$, we find that $\hat{q}\propto T^4/T_d$, where $T_d$ is the critical temperature of the confined/deconfined phase transition. By analyzing the $\hat{q}$ in different phases of this theory, we get better understanding about some statements in previous works, such as the non-universality and the explanation of discrepancies between the theory predictions and experiments.

title: NGN, QCD 2 and chiral phase transition from string theory
abstract: We construct a D2-D8-8 configuration in string theory, it can be described at low energy by two dimensional field theory. In the weak coupling region, the low energy theory is a nonlocal generalization of Gross-Neveu(GN) model which dynamically breaks the chiral flavor symmetry U(Nf)L × U(Nf)R at large Nc and finite Nf. However, in the strong coupling region, we can use the SUGRA/Born-Infeld approximation to describe the low energy dynamics of the system. Also, we analyze the low energy dynamics about the configuration of wrapping the one direction of D2 brane on a circle with anti-periodic boundary condition of fermions. The fermions and scalars on D2 branes get mass and decouple from the low energy theory. The IR dynamics is described by the QCD2 at weak coupling. In the opposite region, the dynamics has a holographic dual description. And we have discussed the phase transition of chiral symmetry breaking at finite temperature. Finally, after performing T-duality, this configuration is related to some other brane configurations.

title: DIGITAL LONGITUDINAL BUNCH-BY-BUNCH FEEDBACK SYSTEM FOR THE HLS II
abstract: In order to suppress the longitudinal coupled bunch instabilities, a digital longitudinal bunch-by-bunch feedback system will be developed in the upgrade project of Hefei Light Source (HLS II). The longitudinal feedback system consists of a pickup BPM, a front- end/back-end signal processor unit to detect the phase errors of all electron bunches, an iGp signal processor to calculate correction signals of those bunches, two RF power amplifiers, and a longitudinal kicker to supply proper correction energy kicks to individual bunches. A new waveguide overloaded cavity longitudinal feedback kicker has been designed with broadband and high shunt impedance. In this paper, we describe an overview of the new longitudinal feedback system.

title: Recent Heavy Flavor Results at RHIC
abstract: We summarize the recent experimental results of heavy favor physics from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) in Brookhaven National Lab (BNL) at Long Island, New York, USA.We will discuss the directly reconstructed open charm mesons as well as electrons from heavy favor hadron decays. The charm and bottom quark production cross-sections have also been measured. We will also discuss JPsi and Upsilon states in p+p and heavy ion collisions. The studies described here were carried out and reported by the STAR and PHENIX collaborations at RHIC.

title: Holographic phase transition in a noncritical holographic model
abstract: We consider a holographic model constructed from the intersecting brane configuration D4-D4/D4 in noncritical string theory. We study the chiral phase diagram of this holographic QCD-like model with a finite baryon chemical potential through the supergravity dual approximation.

title: Experimental studies of di-jet survival and surface emission bias in Au+Au collisions via angular correlations with respect to back-to-back leading hadrons
abstract: We report first results from an analysis based on a new multi-hadron correlation technique, exploring jet-medium interactions and di-jet surface emission bias at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Pairs of back-to-back high-transverse-momentum hadrons are used for triggers to study associated hadron distributions. In contrast with two-and three-particle correlations with a single trigger with similar kinematic selections, the associated hadron distribution of both trigger sides reveals no modification in either relative pseudorapidity Delta eta or relative azimuthal angle Delta phi from d + Au to central Au + Au collisions. We determine associated hadron yields and spectra as well as production rates for such correlated back-to-back triggers to gain additional insights on medium properties.

title: The high transverse momentum non-photonic electron measurements in Au + Au collisions at sNN = 200 GeV at RHIC
abstract: We present preliminary results of Non-Photonic Electron (NPE) production, NPE-hadron azimuthal correlation as well as NPE elliptic flow studies at midrapidity using a data set with high statistics and low photon conversion background from Au + Au collisions at sNN = 200 GeV collected at RHIC in Run 2010.
