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: Measurements of $\psi^\prime \to \bar{p} K^+ \Sigma^0$ and $\chi_{cj} \to \bar{p} K^+ \Lambda$
abstract: Using a sample of 1.06 x 10(8) psi' mesons collectedwith the BESIII detector at the BEPCII e(+)e(-) collider and chi(cJ) mesons produced via radiative transitions from the psi', we report the first observation for psi' -> (p) over barK(+)Sigma(0) + c.c. (charge conjugate), as well as improved measurements for the chi(cJ) hyperon decays chi(cJ) -> (p) over barK(+) Lambda + c.c. The branching fractions are measured to be B(psi' -> (p) over barK(+) Sigma(0) + c.c) = (1.67 +/- 0.13 +/- 0.12) x 10(-5), B(chi(c0) -> (p) over barK(+) Lambda + c.c) = (13.2 +/- 0.3 +/- 1.0) x 10(-4), B(chi(c1) -> (p) over barK(+) Lambda + c.c) = (4.5 +/- 0.2 +/- 0.4) x 10(-4), and B(chi(c2) -> (p) over barK(+) Lambda + c.c) = (8.4 +/- 0.3 +/- 0.6) x 10(-4), where the first error is statistical, and the second is systematic. In the decay of chi(c0) -> (p) over barK(+) Lambda + c.c:, an anomalous enhancement near threshold is observed in the invariant mass distribution of (p) over bar Lambda + c.c:, which cannot be explained by phase space.

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: Top quark forward-backward asymmetry and charge asymmetry in the left-right twin Higgs model
abstract: In order to explain the Tevatron anomaly of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry A(FB)(t) in the left-right twin Higgs model, we choose to give up the lightest neutral particle of (h) over cap field as a stable dark matter candidate. Then a new Yukawa interaction for (h) over cap is allowed, which can be free from the constraint of same-sign top pair production and contribute sizably to A(FB)(t). Considering the constraints from the production rates of the top pair (t (t) over bar), the top decay rates, and t (t) over bar invariant mass distribution, we find that this model with such new Yukawa interaction can explain A(FB)(t) measured at the Tevatron while satisfying the charge asymmetry A(C)(t) measured at the LHC. Moreover, this model predicts a strong correlation between A(C)(t) at the LHC and A(FB)(t) at the Tevatron, i.e., A(C)(t) increases as A(FB)(t) increases.

title: LHC diphoton Higgs signal and top quark forward-backward asymmetry in quasi-inert Higgs doublet model
abstract: A bstractIn the quasi-inert Higgs doublet model, we study the LHC diphoton rate for a standard model-like Higgs boson and the top quark forward-backward asymmetry at Tevatron. Taking into account the constraints from the vacuum stability, unitarity, electroweak precision tests, flavor physics and the related experimental data of top quark, we find that compared with the standard model prediction, the diphoton rate of Higgs boson at LHC can be enhanced due to the light charged Higgs contributions, while the measurement of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry at Tevatron can be explained to within 1σ due to the non-standard model neutral Higgs bosons contributions. Finally, the correlations between the two observables are discussed.

title: Dark matter and Higgs phenomenology predicted by left-right twin Higgs model in light of CDMS II results
abstract: The left-right twin Higgs model predicts a light stable scalar Ŝ, which is a candidate for WIMP dark matter. We study its scattering on nucleon and find that the cross section is below the CDMS II upper bound but can reach the SuperCDMS sensitivity. Then we study the Higgs phenomenology by paying special attention to the decay h → ŜŜ which is strongly correlated with the dark matter scattering on nucleon. We find that such an invisible decay can be sizable, which can severely suppress the conventional decay modes like h → VV (V = W, Z) and $ h \to b\bar b $. On the other hand, compared to the SM prediction, the rates of Higgs boson productions at the LHC via gluon-gluon fusion, weak boson fusion or in association with top quark pairs are all reduced significantly, e.g., the gluon-gluon fusion channel can be suppressed by about 30%.

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: Dielectron and diphoton channels in 2HDM
abstract: It was observed recently that [L. Randall, Mark B. Wise,  ], any particle in the Standard Model cannot decay to e + e − and γγ final states with comparably measurable branching ratios. This is also true for most extensions of the Standard Model, with the Randall–Sundrum model as an outstanding exception. In this Letter, we show that two-Higgs-Doublet-Models (2HDM) yield another possible exception if certain parameters are properly chosen. In addition, we have checked that this model survives the tests of low energy processes, including the anomalous magnetic moment and electric dipole moment of leptons, lepton-flavor-violating decays μ − → e − γ and e − e + e − .
