Measurements of the continuum R(uds) and R values in e(+)e(-) annihilation in the energy region between 3.650 and 3.872 GeV.
We report measurements of the continuum R(uds) near the center-of-mass energy of 3.70 GeV, the R[uds(c)+psi(3770)](s) and the R(had)(s) values in e(+)e(-) annihilation at 68 energy points in the energy region between 3.650 and 3.872 GeV with the BES-II detector at the BEPC Collider. We obtain the R(uds) for the continuum light hadron (containing u, d, and s quarks) production near the DD threshold to be R(uds)=2.141+/-0.025+/-0.085.

title: Spectral measurement of electron antineutrino oscillation amplitude and frequency at Daya Bay.
abstract: A measurement of the energy dependence of antineutrino disappearance at the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment is reported. Electron antineutrinos (ν¯(e)) from six 2.9  GW(th) reactors were detected with six detectors deployed in two near (effective baselines 512 and 561 m) and one far (1579 m) underground experimental halls. Using 217 days of data, 41 589 (203 809 and 92 912) antineutrino candidates were detected in the far hall (near halls). An improved measurement of the oscillation amplitude sin(2)2θ(13)=0.090(-0.009)(+0.008) and the first direct measurement of the ν¯(e) mass-squared difference |Δm(ee)2|=(2.59(-0.20)(+0.19))×10(-3)  eV2 is obtained using the observed ν¯(e) rates and energy spectra in a three-neutrino framework. This value of |Δm(ee)2| is consistent with |Δm(μμ)2| measured by muon neutrino disappearance, supporting the three-flavor oscillation model.

title: Search for a light sterile neutrino at Daya Bay.
abstract: A search for light sterile neutrino mixing was performed with the first 217 days of data from the Daya Bay Reactor Antineutrino Experiment. The experiment's unique configuration of multiple baselines from six 2.9 GW(th) nuclear reactors to six antineutrino detectors deployed in two near (effective baselines 512 m and 561 m) and one far (1579 m) underground experimental halls makes it possible to test for oscillations to a fourth (sterile) neutrino in the 10(-3) eV(2)<|Δm(41)(2) |< 0.3 eV(2) range. The relative spectral distortion due to the disappearance of electron antineutrinos was found to be consistent with that of the three-flavor oscillation model. The derived limits on sin(2) 2θ(14) cover the 10(-3) eV(2) ≲ |Δm(41)(2)| ≲ 0.1 eV(2) region, which was largely unexplored.

title: Gamma-rays from nearby clusters: Constraints on selected decaying dark matter models
abstract: Recently, the Fermi-LAT Collaboration reported upper limits on the GeV gamma-ray flux from nearby clusters of galaxies. Motivated by these limits, we study corresponding constraints on gamma-ray emissions from two specific decaying dark matter models, one via grand unification scale suppressed operators and the other via R-parity violating operators. Both can account for the PAMELA and Fermi-LAT excesses of e ± . For GUT decaying dark matter, the gamma-rays from the M49 and Fornax clusters, with energy in the range of 1 to 10 GeV, lead to the most stringent constraints to date. As a result, this dark matter is disfavored with conventional model of e ± background. In addition, it is likely that some tension exists between the Fermi-LAT e ± excess and the gamma-ray constraints for any decaying dark matter model, provided conventional model of e ± background is adopted. Nevertheless, the GUT decaying dark matter can still solely account for the PAMELA positron fraction excess without violating the gamma-ray constraints. For the gravitino dark matter model with R-parity violation, cluster observations do not give tight constraints. This is because a different e ± background has been adopted which leads to relatively light dark matter mass around 200 GeV.

title: Preheating and locked inflation: an analytic approach towards parametric resonance
abstract: We take an analytic approach towards the framework of parametric resonance and apply it on preheating and locked inflation. A two-scalar toy model is analytically solved for the λ2χ2 coupling for the homogenous modes. The effects of dynamic universe background and backreaction are taken into account. We show the average effect of parametric resonance to be that χ's amplitude doubles for each cycle of . Our framework partly solves the broad resonance for preheating scenario, showing two distinct stages of preheating and making the parameters of preheating analytically calculable. It is demonstrated for slowroll inflation models, preheating is terminated, if by backreaction, typically in the 5th e-fold. Under our framework, a possible inhomogeneity amplification effect is also found during preheating, which both may pose strong constraints on some inflationary models and may amplify tiny existing inhomogeneities to the desired scale. For demonstration, we show it rules out the backreaction end of preheating of the quadratic slowroll inflation model with mass m ~ 10−6. For locked inflation, parametric resonance is found to be inhibited if has more than one real component.

title: Higgs boson decays and production via gluon fusion at LHC in littlest Higgs models with T-parity
abstract: We study the Higgs boson decays and production via gluon fusion at the LHC as a probe of two typical littlest Higgs models which introduce a top quark partner with different (even and odd) T parity to cancel the Higgs mass quadratic divergence contributed by the top quark. For each model, we consider two different choices for the down-type quark Yukawa couplings. We first examine the branching ratios of the Higgs boson decays and then study the production via gluon fusion followed by the decay into two photons or two weak gauge bosons. We find that the predictions can be quite different for different models or different choices of down-type quark Yukawa couplings, and all these predictions can sizably deviate from the standard model predictions. So the Higgs boson processes at the LHC can be a sensitive probe for these littlest Higgs models.

title: What if bb does not dominate the decay of the Higgs-like boson?
abstract: The dominant decay mode of standard model Higgs at 126 GeV $b\bar{b}$ suffers from severe SM background at the LHC even in associated productions $Wh_{\rm SM}$ or $Z h_{\rm SM}$. The precision measurement of BR($\phi\to b\bar{b})$ requires more data to reduce its large error bar. We investigate the possibility of this channel with largest uncertainty not dominating the decay of Higgs-like boson discovered at the LHC. In such scenarios, the Higgs signal shows highly suppressed $b\bar{b}$, slightly reduced $\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ and moderately enhanced gauge bosons comparing with the SM predictions. The model requires two different sources of electroweak symmetry breaking and radiative correction to $m_{b}$ strongly enhanced. However, large reduction in $b\bar{b}$ usually results large enhancement in $\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ mode in particular. The reduction of $\tau^{+}\tau^{-}$ therefore implies that a new decay mode is inevitable. We find that a non-decoupling MSSM Higgs decay into lighter Higgs $H\to  may fit the signature. Here, MSSM $H$ is identified as the 126 GeV resonance while $h$ is below $M_{H}/2$ and can evade the direct search bound at LEPII and Tevatron. R$ symmetry breaking effects mediated by strong interaction can strongly enhance radiative corrections in $m_b$. However, the scenario can only be realized in highly fine-tuned parameter region where $G_{Hhh}$ is tiny. Nevertheless, we discuss the discovery potential of this highly fine-tuned $H\to hh$ at the LHC.

title: Decaying dark matter in supersymmetric SU(5) models
abstract: Motivated by recent observations from PAMELA, Fermi and H.E.S.S., we consider dark matter decays in the framework of supersymmetric SU(5) grand unification theories. An SU(5) singlet S is assumed to be the main component of dark matters, which decays into visible particles through dimension six operators suppressed by the grand unification scale. Under certain conditions, S decays dominantly into a pair of sleptons with universal coupling for all generations. Subsequently, electrons and positrons are produced from cascade decays of these sleptons. These cascade decay chains smooth the e + + e − spectrum, which permit naturally a good fit to the Fermi-LAT data. The observed positron fraction upturn by PAMELA can be reproduced simultaneously. We have also calculated diffuse gamma-ray spectra due to the e ± excesses and compared them with the preliminary Fermi-LAT data from 0.1 GeV to 10 GeV in the region 0 ° ⩽ l ⩽ 360 ° , 10 ° ⩽ | b | ⩽ 20 ° . The photon spectrum of energy above 100 GeV, mainly from final state radiations, may be checked in the near future.
