Transverse momentum resummation for color sextet and antitriplet scalar production at the LHC
We study the factorization and resummation of the transverse momentum spectrum of the color sextet and antitriplet scalars produced at the LHC based on soft-collinear effective theory. Compared to $$Z$$Z boson and Higgs production, a soft function is required to account for the soft gluon emission from the final-state colored scalar. The soft function is calculated at the next-to-leading order, and the resummation is performed at the approximate next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. The non-perturbative effects and PDF uncertainties are also discussed.

OPERATOR FORMS OF THE CLASSICAL YANG–BAXTER EQUATION IN LIE SUPERALGEBRAS
In this paper, we study the operator forms of the classical Yang–Baxter equation (CYBE) in Lie superalgebras. We introduce the notion of super -operators and give their relationship with the (standard) tensor form. There are close relationships between the CYBE in Lie superalgebras and left-symmetric superalgebras which can be interpreted through the super -operators. In particular, there are natural and explicit solutions of the CYBE in Lie superalgebras constructed from left-symmetric superalgebras.

Special Theory for Superluminal Particle
The OPERA collaboration reported evidence for muonic neutrinos travelling faster than light in vacuum. In this paper, an extended relativity theory is proposed. We think all particles can be divided into three kinds: The first kind of particle is its velocity in the range of $0\leq v < c$, e.g. electron, atom, molecule and so on ($c$ is light velocity, i.e., the limit velocity of the first kind of particle). The second kind of particle is its velocity in the range of $0\leq v < c_{m1}$, e.g. photon ($c_{m1}$ is the limit velocity of the second kind of particle). The third kind of particle is its velocity in the range of $c\leq v < c_{m2}$, e.g. tachyon, and muonic neutrinos ($c_{m2}$ is the limit velocity of the third kind of particle). The first kind of particle is described by the special relativity. With the extended relativity theory, we can describe the second and third kinds particles, and can analysis the OPERA experiment results and calculate the muonic neutrinos mass.

Transverse-Momentum Resummation for Gauge Boson Pair Production at the Hadron Collider
We perform the transverse-momentum resummation for $W^{+}W^{-}$, $ZZ$, and $W^{\pm}Z$ pair productions at the next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy using soft-collinear effective theory for $\sqrt{S}=8 \text{TeV}$ and $\sqrt{S}=14 \text{TeV}$ at the LHC, respectively. Especially, this is the first calculation of $W^{\pm}Z$ transverse-momentum resummation. We also include the non-perturbative effects and discussions on the PDF uncertainties. Comparing with the next-to-leading logarithmic results, the next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic resummation can reduce the dependence of the transverse-momentum distribution on the factorization scales significantly. Finally, we find that our numerical results are consistent with data measured by CMS collaboration for the $ZZ$ production, which have been only reported by the LHC experiments for the unfolded transverse-momentum distribution of the gauge boson pair production so far, within theoretical and experimental uncertainties.

Dirac Equation at Finite Temperature
In this paper, we propose finite temperature Dirac equation, which can describe the quantum systems in an arbitrary temperature for a relativistic particle of spin-1/2. When the temperature T=0, it become Dirac equation. With the equation, we can study the relativistic quantum systems in an arbitrary temperature.

Constraints on flavor-changing neutral-current $Htq$ couplings from the signal of $tH$ associated production with QCD next-to-leading order accuracy at the LHC
We study a generic Higgs boson and a top quark associated production via model-independent flavor-changing neutral-current couplings at the LHC, including complete QCD next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to the production and decay of the top quark and the Higgs boson. We find that QCD NLO corrections can increase the total production cross sections by about 48.9% and 57.9% for the Htu and Htc coupling induced processes at the LHC, respectively. After kinematic cuts are imposed on the decay products of the top quark and the Higgs boson, the QCD NLO corrections are reduced to 11% for the Htu coupling induced process and almost vanish for the Htc coupling induced process. Moreover, QCD NLO corrections reduce the dependence of the total cross sections on the renormalization and factorization scales. We also discuss signals of the

Edge Charge Asymmetry in Top Pair Production at the LHC
In this brief report, we propose a new definition of charge asymmetry in top pair production at the LHC, namely the edge charge asymmetry (ECA). ECA utilizes the information of drifting direction only for single top (or anti-top) with hadronically decay. Therefore ECA can be free from the uncertainty arising from the missing neutrino in the tt̄ event reconstruction. Moreover rapidity Y of top (or anti-top) is required to be greater than a critical value YC in order to suppress the symmetric tt̄ events mainly due to the gluongluon fusion process. In this paper ECA is calculated up to next-to-leading order QCD in the standard model and the choice of the optimal YC is investigated. ∗ E-mail:homenature@pku.edu.cn † E-mail:wangyk@pku.edu.cn ‡ E-mail:zhongqiu zhou@pku.edu.cn § E-mail:shzhu@pku.edu.cn

Higher injection energy for CAMD accelerator
It has been suggested that two unused linac-accelerating sections, which are at Jefferson Laboratory could be transferred to CAMD. These sections are identical to the ones presently in use here. The addition of one of these sections to the CAMD linac would allow the injection energy to be increased to about 275 MeV. A study is being conducted of the implications of this scheme, covering: modifications to the transport line; upgrading the injection kicker systems; extra space requirements; and upgrades to other systems associated with the linac. The high-energy injection upgrade will help to overcome the vertical aperture restriction of new insertion devices, to improve the ion clearing if any ion trapping occurs, to decrease the synchrotron radiation damping times, etc. In the paper, the specifications of the linac will be given, and the parameters of the storage ring at injection energy will be posed based on the current lattice configurations.

Transverse momentum spectra of charged particles in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 900 GeV with ALICE at the LHC
The inclusive charged particle transverse momentum distribution is measured in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 900$~GeV at the LHC using the ALICE detector. The measurement is performed in the central pseudorapidity region $(|\eta|_{\rm INEL}=0.483\pm0.001$~(stat.)~$\pm0.007$~(syst.)~GeV/$c$ and $\left_{\rm NSD}=0.489\pm0.001$~(stat.)~$\pm0.007$~(syst.)~GeV/$c$, respectively. The data exhibit a slightly larger $\left$ than measurements in wider pseudorapidity intervals. The results are compared to simulations with the Monte Carlo event generators PYTHIA and PHOJET

Study on the spectrum of the injected relativistic protons
About 10TeV gamma-ray emission within 10 pc region from the Galactic Center had been reported by 4 independent groups. Considering that this TeV gamma-ray emission is produced via a hadronic model, and the relativistic protons came from the tidal disruption of stars by massive black holes, we investigate the spectral nature of the injected relativistic protons required by the hadronic model. The calculation was carried on the tidal disruption of the different types of stars and the different propagation mechanisms of protons in the interstellar medium. Compared with the observation data from HESS, we find for the best fitting that the power-law index of the spectrum of the injected protons is about -1.9, when a red giant star is tidally disrupted, and the effective confinement of protons diffusion mechanism is adopted.
