The Chiral Anomalies in W and Z Decays
Some of the important W± and Z decay amplitudes, relating to the chiral anomalies of the quark sector in the Standard Model, are given by means of the interactions determined by the effective Lagrangian (action) of the nonlinear σ model for the pseudogoldstone bosons. The corresponding decay rates are calculated. It is shown that the decay rates are quite large, especially, the rate of the decay W →πγ and probably that of W → Dsγ are predicted being unexpectedly great (ΓW→πγ = 0.35 GeV). This indicates that the chiral anomalies and our approach should receive tests from SPPS and Tevantron experiments.

title: The $J/\psi$ production associated with a hard photon and the color octet signature in $e^{+} e^{-}$ annihilation
abstract: $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ production associated with a hard photon in ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ annihilation, being of a QED nature, is investigated thoroughly in this paper. To show its influence on the observation of the color-octet signature in ${e}^{+}{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ annihilation via $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ inclusive production, the cross sections of $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ production through different mechanisms at various energies are compared quantitatively by presenting them in figures together. The contribution from the production associated with a hard photon to the inclusive production of $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ is pointed out to be significant at the concerned energies; thus, the influence of it on the observation of the color-octet signature should be dealt with carefully.

title: Next-to-Leading-Order QCD corrections to $J/\psi (\upsilon) + \gamma$ production at the LHC
abstract: In this work, we calculate the next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD corrections to the process $p+p \to J/\psi + \gamma$ via the color-singlet mechanism at the LHC. The results show that the partial cross section ($p_t^{J/\psi}>$3GeV and $|y^{J/\psi,\gamma}|<$3) is enhanced by a factor of about 2.0, and the differential cross section can be enhanced by two orders of magnitude in the large transverse momentum region of $J/\psi$. Furthermore, the polarization of $J/\psi$ changes from transverse polarization at leading-order to longitudinal polarization at NLO. For the inclusive $J/\psi$ hadroproduction, it is known that the color-octet contributions are one order of magnitude larger than the color-singlet contribution, and the polarization distribution is dominated by the color-octet behavior at NLO. In contrast, for $J/\psi+\gamma$ production the color-singlet contribution is of the same order as the color-octet contribution, and the polarization distribution arises from both the color-singlet and color-octet. Therefore, measurements of $J/\psi$ production associated with a direct photon at the hadron collider could be an important supplement to testify the theoretical framework treating with the heavy quarkonium. In addition, an NLO QCD correction to $\Upsilon+\gamma$ production at the LHC is also presented in this paper.

title: Next-to-leading-order QCD corrections to e+e- -->J/psi gg at the B factories.
abstract: We calculate the next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD corrections to e;{+}e;{-}-->J/psi gg via color singlet J/psi(3S1) at the B factories. The result shows that the cross section is enhanced to 0.373 pb by a K factor (NLO/LO) of about 1.21. By considering its dependence on the charm quark mass and renormalization scale, the NLO cross section can range from 0.294 to 0.409 pb. Further including the psi;{'} feed-down, sigma[e;{+}e;{-}-->J/psi X(non-cc[over ])] is enhanced by another factor of about 1.29 and reach 0.482 pb. In addition, the momentum distributions of J/psi production and polarization are presented. Recent measurements from Belle agree well with our prediction for the cross section and momentum distribution. It is expected that this process can serve as a very good channel to clarify the J/psi polarization puzzle by performing further experimental measurements.

title: The realizations of quantum groups of An−1 and Cn types in q-deformed oscillator systems at classical and quantum levels
abstract: In the classical q‐deformed oscillators system, the Poisson bracket realizations of the quantum enveloping algebras of An−1 and Cn types are given in the symplectic space (V,Ω) (without deformation). When the oscillators system is canonically quantized, the Lie bracket realizations of the quantum enveloping algebras of An−1 and Cn types are obtained. The Hopf structures of these quantum enveloping algebras are supplied.

title: UNIVERSALLY TREATING THE QUARK PAIR WITH A VACUUM QUANTUM NUMBER IN THE RELATED CHARM DECAYS
abstract: A method for universally treating the quark pair with a vacuum quantum number is proposed and it is applied to calculating some charm meson decays as examples. The smallness for W-exchange and annihilation mechanisms has new explanation and the result obtained by means of the proposed method on the decay fits the experimental data well.

title: Measurement of dijet angular distributions and search for quark compositeness in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV.
abstract: Dijet angular distributions are measured over a wide range of dijet invariant masses in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV, at the CERN LHC. The event sample, recorded with the CMS detector, corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb⁻¹. The data are found to be in good agreement with the predictions of perturbative QCD, and yield no evidence of quark compositeness. With a modified frequentist approach, a lower limit on the contact interaction scale for left-handed quarks of Λ⁺ = 5.6 TeV (Λ⁻ = 6.7 TeV) for destructive (constructive) interference is obtained at the 95% confidence level.

title: EXPLORING THE COSMIC REIONIZATION EPOCH IN FREQUENCY SPACE: AN IMPROVED APPROACH TO REMOVE THE FOREGROUND IN 21 cm TOMOGRAPHY
abstract: With the intent of correctly restoring the redshifted 21 cm signals emitted by neutral hydrogen during the cosmic reionization processes, we re-examine the separation approaches based on the quadratic polynomial fitting technique in frequency space in order to investigate whether they work satisfactorily with complex foreground by quantitatively evaluating the quality of restored 21 cm signals in terms of sample statistics. We construct the foreground model to characterize both spatial and spectral substructures of the real sky, and use it to simulate the observed radio spectra. By comparing between different separation approaches through statistical analysis of restored 21 cm spectra and corresponding power spectra, as well as their constraints on the mean halo bias b and average ionization fraction x(e) of the reionization processes, at z = 8 and the noise level of 60 mK we find that although the complex foreground can be well approximated with quadratic polynomial expansion, a significant part of the Mpc-scale components of the 21 cm signals (75% for greater than or similar to 6 h(-1) Mpc scales and 34% for greater than or similar to 1 h(-1) Mpc scales) is lost because it tends to be misidentified as part of the foreground when the single-narrow-segment separation approach is applied. The best restoration of the 21 cm signals and the tightest determination of b and xe can be obtained with the three-narrow-segment fitting technique as proposed in this paper. Similar results can be obtained at other redshifts.

title: Measurement of charge asymmetries in charmless hadronic B meson decays.
abstract: We search for CP-violating charge asymmetries (alpha(CP)) in the B meson decays to K(+/-)pi(-/+), K(+/-)pi(0), K(0)(S)pi(+/-), K(+/-)eta('), and omega pi(+/-). Using 9.66 million upsilon(4S) decays collected with the CLEO detector, the statistical precision on alpha(CP) is in the range of +/-0.12 to +/-0.25 depending on decay mode. While CP-violating asymmetries of up to +/-0.5 are possible within the standard model, the measured asymmetries are consistent with zero in all five decay modes studied.

title: Measurement of the Pseudoscalar Decay Constant f(D(s)) Using D(s)+ ---> tau+ nu, tau+ ---> rho+ anti-nu Decays
abstract: Analyzing 600 pb ―1 of e + e ― collisions at 4170 MeV center-of-mass energy with the CLEO-c detector, we measure the branching fraction B(D + s → τ + ν) = (5.52 ± 0.57 ± 0.21)% using the τ + → ρ + ν decay mode. Combining with other CLEO measurements of B(D + s → τ + ν) we determine the pseudoscalar decay constant f Ds = (259.7 ± 7.8 ± 3.4) MeV consistent with the value obtained from our D + s → μ + ν measurement of (257.6 ± 10.3 ± 4.3) MeV. Combining these measurements we find a value of f Ds = (259.0 ± 6.2 ± 3.0) MeV, that differs from the most accurate prediction based on unquenched lattice gauge theory of (241 ± 3) MeV by 2.4 standard deviations. We also present the first measurements of B(D + s → K 0 π + π 0 ) = (1.00 ± 0.18 ± 0.04)%, and B(D + s → π + π 0 π 0 ) (0.65 ± 0.13 ± 0.03)%, and measure a new value for B(D + s → ηρ + ) = (8.9 ± 0.6 ± 0.5)%.

title: Gauge invariant effective Lagrangian for Kaluza-Klein modes
abstract: We construct a manifestly gauge invariant Lagrangian in $3+1$ dimensions for N Kaluza-Klein modes of an $\mathrm{SU}(m)$ gauge theory in the bulk. For example, if the bulk is $4+1,$ the effective theory is ${\ensuremath{\Pi}}_{i=1}^{N+1}{\mathrm{SU}(m)}_{i}$ with N chiral $(\overline{m},m)$ fields connecting the groups sequentially. This can be viewed as a Wilson action for a transverse lattice in ${x}^{5},$ and is shown explicitly to match the continuum $4+1$ compactified Lagrangian truncated in momentum space. Scale dependence of the gauge couplings is described by the standard renormalization group technique with threshold matching, leading to effective power law running. We also discuss the unitarity constraints, and chiral fermions.
