Non-leptonic decays of Charmed mesons into two Pseudoscalars
2015
We examine the role of resonant coupled channel final state interactions (FSI), as well as weak annihilation and exchange contributions in explaining all the two body hadronic $D\rightarrow PP$ decay modes data. In the un-unitarized amplitudes we include modified Wilson coefficients with non-factorizable corrections as parameters. For the hadronic form factors, the z-series expansion method is used to get the $q^2$ dependence. The FSI effects are incorporated via a phenomenological approach with widths of resonances to various channels taken from observations where available, and others as additional parameters to be determined from fits of all the theoretical rates to the measured ones.

Branching fraction measurement ofB¯0→D(*)+π−andB−→D(*)0π−and isospin analysis ofB¯→D(*)πdecays
2007
Using 65 X 10(6) Y (4S) -> BB events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e(+) e(-) storage ring at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, we measure the color-favored branching fractions B(B-0 -> D+ pi(-)) = (2.55 +/- 0.05 +/- 0.16) X 10(-3), B(B-0 -> D*(+) pi(-)) = (2.79 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.17) X 10(-3), B(B- -> D-0 pi(-)) = (4.90 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.22) X 10(-3) and B(B- -> D*(0)pi(-)) = (5.52 +/- 0.17 +/- 0.42) X 10(-3), where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. With these results and the current world average for the branching fraction for the color-suppressed decay B-0 -> D-(*()0)pi(0), the cosines of the strong phase difference delta between the I =1/2 and …
Thickness measurement of soft thin films on periodically patterned magnetic substrates by phase difference magnetic force microscopy
2013
The need for accurate measurement of the thickness of soft thin films is continuously encouraging the development of techniques suitable for this purpose. We propose a method through which the thickness of the film is deduced from the quantitative measurement of the contrast in the phase images of the sample surface acquired by magnetic force microscopy, provided that the film is deposited on a periodically patterned magnetic substrate. The technique is demonstrated by means of magnetic substrates obtained from standard floppy disks. Colonies of Staphylococcus aureus adherent to such substrates were used to obtain soft layers with limited lateral (a levy microns) and vertical (hundreds of n…
Pac-Man Josephson junctions: Useful trigonometric puzzles?
2020
Abstract Rather interesting trigonometric equations arise when considering a Josephson junction obtained by embedding a Pac-Man shaped superconducting island in between two superconducting electrodes. In the present work we unfold these equations, written in terms of the superconducting phase difference between the two electrodes, and find the current-phase relation and the maximum superconducting current of the Josephson junction network. The solution of the trigonometric equations defining the superconducting current state of the system can be proposed to advanced high-school students or to undergraduate students in an interdisciplinary lecture.
