Yang-Type Monopoles In 5 Dimensional Curved Space-Time
Motivated by Gibbons and Townsend's recent work, we construct Yang-Type monopoles in maximally symmetric space-time. We then analyze the dependence of horizon structure of the space-times around the 5-dimensional monopoles on the relative strength of gravitations to Yang-Mills interactions. We also analyze the stability of the monopoles against tensor type perturbations on metrics.

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: Viscosity and Jet Quenching from a Holographic Model
abstract: We consider the backreaction of the fundamental flavor degrees of freedom on the AdS5-Schwarz background, and calculate their contributions to the shear viscosity and jet-quenching parameter of the thermal quark-gluon plasma.

title: Vertex Operators of Open String States in the Intersecting D-brane World
abstract: 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: The entropy sum of (A)dS black holes in four and higher dimensions
abstract: We present the "entropy sum" relation of (A)dS charged black holes in higher-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell gravity, f(R) gravity, Gauss-Bonnet gravity and gauged supergravity. For their "entropy sum" with the necessary effect of the unphysical "virtual" horizon included, we conclude the general results that the cosmological constant dependence and Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant dependence do hold in both the four and six dimensions, while the "entropy sum" is always vanishing in odd dimensions. Furthermore, the "entropy sum" of all horizons is related to the geometry of the horizons in four and six dimensions. In these explicitly four cases, one also finds that the conserved charges M (the mass), Q (the charge from Maxwell field or supergravity) and the parameter a (the angular momentum) play no role in the "entropy sum" relations.

title: Applying Bayesian Neural Network to determine neutrino incoming direction in reactor neutrino experiments and supernova explosion location by scintillator detectors
abstract: In the paper, it is discussed by using Monte-Carlo simulation that the Bayesian Neural Network (BNN) is applied to determine neutrino incoming direction in reactor neutrino experiments and supernova explosion location by scintillator detectors. As a result, compared to the method in ref. , the uncertainty on the measurement of the neutrino direction using BNN is significantly improved. The uncertainty on the measurement of the reactor neutrino direction is about 1.0° at the 68.3% C.L., and the one in the case of supernova neutrino is about 0.6° at the 68.3% C.L. . Compared to the method in ref. , the uncertainty attainable by using BNN reduces by a factor of about 20. And compared to the Super-Kamiokande experiment (SK), it reduces by a factor of about 8.

title: Three dimensional rotating hairy black holes, asymptotics and thermodynamics
abstract: A rotating hairy black hole solution is found in gravity minimally coupled to a self-interacting real scalar field in three spacetime dimensions. Then we discuss analytically the horizon structure and find an analogue of the famous Kerr bound in (2+1) dimensions because of the existence of black hole horizons. We present the asymptotic symmetries and find the same symmetry group (i.e. the conformal group) and central charge as in pure gravity. Based on the asymptotic behavior, the mass and angular momentum are presented by the Regge-Teitelboim approach. Other thermodynamic quantities are also obtained and the first law of black hole thermodynamics and Smarr relation are checked. In addition, we also investigate the local thermodynamic stability and find the existence of Hawking-Page phase transition in the rotating hairy black hole.

title: Accelerating Vacua in Gauss—Bonnet Gravity
abstract: Accelerating vacua with maximally symmetric, but not necessarily spherical, sections for Einstein and Gauss-Bonnet gravities in generic dimensions are obtained. The acceleration parameter has the effect of shifting the cosmological constants in Einstein gravity, whereas in Gauss-Bonnet gravity the effective cosmological constants remain the same in the presence of acceleration as in the case without acceleration.
