Anomalous enhancement of the isospin-violating Λ(1405) production by a triangle singularity in Λc→π+π0π0Σ0
2018
The decay of ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_{c}^{+}$ into ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}(1405)$ with the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}(1405)$ decay into ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}}^{0}$ through a triangle diagram is studied. This process is initiated by ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_{c}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\overline{K}}^{*}N$, and then the ${\overline{K}}^{*}$ decays into $\overline{K}\ensuremath{\pi}$ and $\overline{K}N$ produce the $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}(1405)$ through a triangle loop containing ${\overline{K}}^{*}N\overline{K}$ which develops a singularity around 1890 MeV. Th…
Discussion on triangle singularities in the Λb→J/ψK−p reaction
2016
We have analyzed the singularities of a triangle loop integral in detail and derived a formula for an easy evaluation of the triangle singularity on the physical boundary. It is applied to the ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}_{b}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}J/\ensuremath{\psi}{K}^{\ensuremath{-}}p$ process via ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}}^{*}$-charmonium-proton intermediate states. Although the evaluation of absolute rates is not possible, we identify the ${\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c1}$ and the $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$ as the relatively most relevant states among all possible charmonia up to the $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$. The $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}(1890){\ensuremath{\chi}}_{c1}p$ loop is ver…
Sound conversion phenomena at the free surface of liquid helium. II. Experimental determination of acoustic coefficients and surface absorption coeff…
1983
The acoustic coefficients of reflection, transmission, and transformation of first-, second-, and gas sound waves incident normally on the free surface of liquid helium have been determined. The experimental results are compared with the theory developed in Part I of this paper. It is shown that equilibrium theories of boundary conditions disagree with the experiments. Nonequilibrium theories, however, which take into account that mass and energy transport processes occur at the liquid-vapor interface of helium II, lead to a very good description of the experimental data below 2 K. Within experimental accuracy the measurements fully confirm several kinetic models of evaporation and energy t…
Zero‐Energy Rotating Accretion Flows near a Black Hole
1996
We characterize the nature of thin, axisymmetric, inviscid, accretion flows of cold adiabatic gas with zero specific energy in the vicinity of a black hole by the specific angular momentum. Using two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations in cylindrical geometry, we present various regimes in which the accretion flows behave distinctly differently. When the flow has a small angular momentum $(\lambda\lsim\lambda_b)$, most of the material is accreted into the black hole forming a quasi-spherical flow or a simple disk-like structure around it. When the flow has a large angular momentum (typically, larger than the marginally bound value, $\lambda\gsim\lambda_{mb}$), almost no accretion into the …
Measurement of the Absolute Branching Fraction forΛc+→Λe+νe
2015
We report the first measurement of the absolute branching fraction for Lambda(+)(c) -> Lambda e(+)nu(e). This measurement is based on 567 pb(-1) of e(+)e(-) annihilation data produced at root s = 4.599 GeV, which is just above the Lambda(+)(c)Lambda(-)(c) threshold. The data were collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage rings. The branching fraction is determined to be B(Lambda(+)(c) -> Lambda e(+)nu(e)) = [3.63 +/- 0.38(stat) +/- 0.20(syst)] %, representing a significant improvement in precision over the current indirect determination. As the branching fraction for Lambda(+)(c) -> Lambda e(+)nu(e) is the benchmark for those of other Lambda(+)(c) semileptonic channels, our r…
Isotropic extragalactic flux from dark matter annihilations: lessons from interacting dark matter scenarios
2016
The extragalactic gamma-ray and neutrino emission may have a contribution from dark matter (DM) annihilations. In the case of discrepancies between observations and standard predictions, one could infer the DM pair annihilation cross section into cosmic rays by studying the shape of the energy spectrum. So far all analyses of the extragalactic DM signal have assumed the standard cosmological model (LambdaCDM) as the underlying theory. However, there are alternative DM scenarios where the number of low-mass objects is significantly suppressed. Therefore the characteristics of the gamma-ray and neutrino emission in these models may differ from LambdaCDM as a result. Here we show that the extr…
A nonlinear eigenvalue problem for the periodic scalar p-Laplacian
2014
We study a parametric nonlinear periodic problem driven by the scalar $p$-Laplacian. We show that if $\hat \lambda_1 >0$ is the first eigenvalue of the periodic scalar $p$-Laplacian and $\lambda> \hat \lambda_1$, then the problem has at least three nontrivial solutions one positive, one negative and the third nodal. Our approach is variational together with suitable truncation, perturbation and comparison techniques.
Neutrino clustering in the Milky Way and beyond
2019
The standard cosmological model predicts the existence of a Cosmic Neutrino Background, which has not yet been observed directly. Some experiments aiming at its detection are currently under development, despite the tiny kinetic energy of the cosmological relic neutrinos, which makes this task incredibly challenging. Since massive neutrinos are attracted by the gravitational potential of our Galaxy, they can cluster locally. Neutrinos should be more abundant at the Earth position than at an average point in the Universe. This fact may enhance the expected event rate in any future experiment. Past calculations of the local neutrino clustering factor only considered a spherical distribution o…
One-photon transitions between heavy baryons in a relativistic three-quark model
1998
We study one-photon transitions between heavy baryon states in the framework of a relativistic three-quark model. We calculate the one-photon transition rates for ground-state to ground-state transitions and for some specific excited state to ground-state transitions. Our rate predictions for the most important transitions are: $\Gamma(\Sigma^{+}_{c}\to \Lambda_c^+\gamma)= 60.7\pm 1.5 $ KeV, $\Gamma(\Xi^{'+}_{c}\to \Xi_c^+\gamma) = 12.7\pm 1.5$ KeV, $\Gamma(\Lambda_{c1}(2593)\to\Lambda_c^+\gamma)=104.3\pm 1.3$ KeV.
First observation of the isospin violating decayJ/ψ→ΛΣ¯0+c.c.
2012
Using a sample of (225.2 +/- 2.8) x 10(6) J/psi events collected with the BESIII detector, we present results of a study of J/psi -> gamma Lambda(Lambda) over bar and report the first observation of the isospin violating decay J/psi -> Lambda(Sigma) over bar (0) + c.c., in which (Sigma) over bar (0) decays to gamma (Lambda) over bar. The measured branching fractions are B(J/psi -> (Lambda) over bar Sigma(0)) = (1.46 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.12) x 10(-5) and B(J/psi -> Lambda(Sigma) over bar (0)) = (1.37 +/- 0.12 +/- 0.11) x 10(-5). We search for Lambda(1520) -> gamma Lambda decay, and find no evident signal, and an upper limit for the product branching fraction B(J/psi -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar (152…
