Candidates for Chiral Particles
We find possible candidates for the new type of q bar q meson, mesonic chiralons, whose existence is predicted in the covariant level-classification scheme of hadrons with U(12)_SF * O(3,1)_L symmetry, by assigning all the known light-unflavored and strange mesons, with masses below about 1.8 GeV, to U(12)_SF * O(3,1)_L multiplets.

One-gluon exchange effects on linear meson trajectories in the covariant oscillator quark model
SummaryWe investigate one-gluon exchange effects on the linear Regge trajectories of all quark-antiquark meson systems, from light through heavy quarks, in the framework of the covariant oscillator quark model. This model gives linearly rising trajectories to both orbitally and radially excited states in the limit of neglecting perturbative QCD effects. We find that the spin-independent one-gluon exchange interaction barely affects the orbital excitations, preserving the well-known linearity of the leading Regge trajectories, but for the radial excitations it makes an appropriate contribution, in conformity with the observed behaviour largely deviating from the linear trajectories. We also calculate the hyperfine mass splittings of all ground-stateS-wave mesons. For as yet unknown mass splittings, we findM(B*c)−M(Bc)≈50 MeV andM(Y)−M(ηb)≈49 MeV.

Meson spectra and wave functions in a covariant version of the linear-plus-Coulomb potential quark model
We examine mass spectra and wave functions of nn, cc and bb meson systems in the covariant oscillator quark model with the four-dimensional color-Coulomb interaction and find that these spectra are described well. Our results seem to suggest that the present model may be considered effectively as a covariant version of the nonrelativistic linear-plus-Coulomb potential quark model.

Three-body-interaction effects on the relativistic perihelion precession for the Sun-Jupiter-Saturn system
The relativistic perihelion precession due to the three-body interaction is derived. We consider a hierarchical coplanar three-body system, such as the Sun, Jupiter and Saturn, in which both the secondary object as the largest planet corresponding to Jupiter (mass $m_2$) and the third one corresponding to Saturn (mass $m_3$) orbit around the primary object corresponding to Sun (mass $m_1 \gg m_2 \gg m_3$), where the mean orbital radius of the third body is larger than that of the secondary one (denoted as $\ell$). We investigate the post-Newtonian effects on the motion of the third body (semimajor axis a, eccentricity e for the Keplerian orbital elements). Under some assumptions with a certain averaging, the relativistic perihelion precession of the third mass by the post-Newtonian three-body interaction is expressed as $6 G m_2 \ell^2 c^{-2} a^{-3} n (1+9e^2/16) (1-e^2)^{-3} $, where G and c denote the gravitational constant and the speed of light, respectively, and the mean motion for the third body is denoted as $n = 2\pi a^{3/2} G^{-1/2} (m_1+m_2)^{-1/2}$. For the Sun-Jupiter-Saturn system, it is $7.8 \times 10^{-6}$ arcsec/cy. This is larger than the Lense-Thirring effect by Sun but it cannot yet explain the recently reported value for the anomalous perihelion precession of Saturn as $-0.006 \pm 0.002$ arcsec/cy by Iorio (2009) based on the analyses by Pitjeva with the EPM2008 ephemerides.

Collinear solution to the general relativistic three-body problem
The three-body problem is reexamined in the framework of general relativity. The Newtonian three-body problem admits Euler's collinear solution, where three bodies move around the common center of mass with the same orbital period and always line up. The solution is unstable. Hence, it is unlikely that such a simple configuration would exist owing to general relativistic forces dependent not only on the masses but also on the velocity of each body. However, we show that the collinear solution remains true with a correction to the spatial separation between masses. Relativistic corrections to the Sun-Jupiter Lagrange points L{sub 1}, L{sub 2}, and L{sub 3} are also evaluated.

Possible latitude effects of Chern-Simons gravity on quantum interference
It has been recently suggested that possible effects of Chern-Simons gravity on a quantum interferometer are dependent on the latitude and direction of the interferometer on Earth in orbital motion around Sun. Continuing work initiated in the earlier publication [Okawara, Yamada and Asada, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 231101 (2012)], we perform numerical calculations of time variation in the induced phase shifts for nonequatorial cases. We show that the maximum phase shift at any latitude might occur at 6, 0 (and 12), and 18 hours (in local time) of each day, when the normal vector to the interferometer is vertical, eastbound and northbound, respectively. If two identical interferometers were located at different latitudes, the difference between two phase shifts that are measured at the same local time would be $O(\sin \delta\varphi)$ for a small latitude difference $\delta\varphi$. It might thus become maximally $\sim 20$ percents for $\delta\varphi \sim 10$ degrees, for instance.
